FEWER PASSENGERS
LONDON’S RAILWAYS . STATMENT BY CHAIRMAN. LONDON, February 28. (Received Feb. 27, at 0.15 a.m.) “ Londoners are walking more and restricting their pleasures, as they prefer to pay their income tax,” said Lord Ashfield, chairman of the London Underground Railways, in announcing at the annual meeting that there were 28,000,000, fewer passengers last year. Lord Ashfield said that the traffic was so quiet around the Christmas period that it seemed as though Christmas had been forgotten, or it must have been spent at the firesjde.
