Business & Finance: Yelloway-Pioneer

Philadelphians had the right to be downright vexed last week. For a month the transcontinental bus system projected last summer (TIME, June 4) and now named Yelloway-Pioneer System had been operating between Los Angeles and Philadelphia. But the country was told very little of the accomplishment. Last week the bus system was extended to Manhattan, 3,433 highway miles from Los Angeles, and there was much to do. A Mrs. C. A. Jondro of Los Angeles, one of the four persons who made the whole journey (in 5 days, 14 hours), declared the ride more comfortable than by train and “more chummy. . . . We had a portable radio and perfect service all the way.”
