I magistrates upon Lawrence Howard Mills, a coach operator, last week, for running a works bus service without a road service licence.
Mr. A. Ashton, defending, explained that 33 workmen at the Royal Ordnance Factory, Maltby, were so dissatisfied with the local bus service that they hired a coach from Mills to take them to work.
Mr. E. Wurzal, prosecuting, said that the men each paid £2 a month to one of their number, who in turn paid Mills £16 10s. a week for the coach.
Mr. Ashton, who entered a plea of guilty, said that the defendant had thought the service legal because of the system of payment, and claimed that a road service licence could probably have been obtained.
