Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

ANSWERING questions about the alleged inadequacy of the service on one of the city's trolleybus routes at last week's meeting of Hull City Council, the chairman of the transport committee, Aid. J. Henson, said that either services would have to be reduced until they had reached a paying level or fares would have to be raised.

No route, said Aid. Henson, was adequately catered for, but the service was in accordance with the returns. If their new buses were to be one-manoperated, as he hoped, it would be possible to reduce fares. " ALARMING" LOSS OF MAN-HOURS

THE loss of man-hours because of poor road conditions was assuming alarming proportions, said a report by Manchester Chamber of Commerce presented last Week. "Many of the efforts of trade can so easily be nullified if delays in transport add to costs of production, cause disorganization to working programmes and generally create a feeling of frustration," it said.

The export drive was being hampered because of delays.
