Decimalization is here—on the Isle of Man. General manager Bill Lambden, of Isle of Man Road Services Ltd., tells me that about one-third of the undertaking's conductors and o-m-o operators are now issuing tickets in pence-only denominations from Setright machines. The 6s 9d return from Douglas to Port Erin is now an 81d ticket. This is the first application in the British Isles that has come to my notice of this system being adopted for relatively long-distance working.
