Realizing the Importance OF letting the

the board has issued the following OH
claI explanation OK it's attitude:
The Commissioners have always done
everything within their power TO ameI-
i0rat6 conditions on the BrightWood car
lire, whenever complaints have been
brought Co their attention. They have
given hearings 90 the representative OF
citizens associations and. acting with
thess. associations, have drafted a BILL
which is now before Congress giving
the Commissioners authority 70 regulate
the operation OF street railways.
This BIN. although IL has been be-
fore Congress for two sessions. has not
yet become a law The franchises OF
the various street railway companies 0p-
Grating iu the District were granted by
Congress, and except iu cases where
Congress has placed upon the Com
missioueEz the duty OF enforcing the
provisions or these charters by an ads-
quate penalty clause. the power Of en-
forcing such provision rests with Con
gress. and the remedy is. as stated ia
The article. b. forfeiture OF the charter.
Mr.. DuvalPs Views.
The Commissioners. In some what

pOraJiOn Counsel as follows.
" The charter or this company was q

''The Commissioners believe that the
proper remedy in cases or failure 10 keep

fractions OF railway charter should
be the enforcement 0r q penalty, and not
the forfeiture of the charter The Com
