PASSENGER STATION A JOKE?
Back East They're Inclined to Make
Fun of Kansas City.
"Kansas City's promised union passenger station not only is a national issue, but a great joke in the East and South," observed R. H. Willilams of the board of public works, yesterday. Mr. Williams is just back from Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Indianapolis, and inall these places he says he was asked how Kansas City is coming along with its union passenger station.
"Last Friday I tendered my personal check drawn on a Kansas City bank in payment of my bill at the Waldorf in New York, and as I passed the check over to the clerk there was a merry twinkle in his eye as he remarked, 'This will be honored before the union passenger station is built, I presume."
