3 CITY CONTROL.

New York, Sept. ~. The board of
trade and transportation Is holding a
meeting here today TO consider a report
which has been prepared by its execu-
tive committee regarding the city's con-
troll of its passenger transit service.
It is the opinion OF the committee, as
expressed in the report, that the city
should have the power to take back
its grants Of franchises to railway cor
porations and substitute short term
grants, revocable at its pleasure on
payment Of stated indemnity. The
committee thinks that the subways TO
be constructed in the city will ,domlin-
ate and control the present subway,
and the surface and elevated lines as
we'll.
The committee recommends that the
mayor, at the beginning Of the next
session Of the legislature, and before
the city shall grant additional transit
franchises, shall demand that the legis-
iatufe SO amend the Rapid Transit law
as to- give the Rapid Transit commits
sion powers to separate contracts tor
construction from operating contracts;
to provide for pipe galleries; to con-
tract for operating periods Of less than
thirty hWe years; and to enable the city
to avail itself, if need be, of the power
Of municipal operation.
