Jitneys Are Taken out of Service


Ogden Standard Examiner, 12 April 1915, page 5

The Jitney Service company decided yesterday to take its regular five-cent fare buses out of service, believing that the bonds required under the new city ordinance made the service virtually prohibitive.   The company had been running five cars on the mains streets of the city and would have had to furnish a bond of $25,000 in order to keep them in service.

The company has established a garage in the old Globe theatre building and will operate a special service to Ogden canyon and probably to some of the country districts.
