Trostler on Transportation

Abstract

One and one-half fare for the round trip on the certificate plan, from all points in the United States and eastern Canada, will be in effect for the Twelfth Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society in Milwaukee, Nov. 29 to Dec. 4, 1926, inclusive. The Western Canada Passenger Association is the only association to refuse to grant the reduced rate. Members from this region may take advantage of the rate by buying local tickets to the nearest station in the United States, and from that point buying tickets for Milwaukee and getting the convention certificate, which will enable them to buy return tickets to the last buying station for half fare. It is altogether likely that there will be a special rate to Chicago from western Canada at that time, and it may be possible to save a considerable amount by taking advantage of it. This should be inquired into before buying tickets. All who attend this meeting, including the wives and families, should secure Certificates when buying tickets for Milwaukee. These Certificates should be deposited with the railroad clerk at the registration desk at the meeting place (the Auditorium). After these certificates have been signed by me for the Society, they will be validated by the representative for the railroads—if 250 have been presented—and should then be reclaimed by the owners. These validated certificates will then be good for one-half fare returning to the place where issued, over the same route. Announcements will be made from time to time during the meetings relative to this. Watch for them. Ask your local railroad agent for particulars. The Plankinton Hotel has been selected for headquarters, and Dr. A. R. Altenhofen, of Milwaukee, Wis., is Chairman of the Hotel Committee.
