APPROVES TRANSFER BILL.
Chamber of Commerce COMMITTEES
Makes Minor Changes, However.

The universal transfer bill, providing
that all street car companies in the Dis
trict give interchangeable transfers,
drafted by A. Leftwich Sinclair. chair
man of the law and legislation committee
of the Chamber OF Commerce. was unani-
mously approved by the full committee

scope of the proposed law so as to include
all school children in the half-fare rate
and relieve the street car companies from
issuing a transfer on transfer except
when the first transfer is taken UP by q
different company from that which is-
sued ii.
The committee will take action to have
the proposed law laid before Congress in
the hope that II may be taken I'D at the
present session of Congress.
