Bryan's Statements False

INT. Speaker, In conclusion, I only bave this word to say: The statement is-
 sued by the gentleman from Nebraska is false Applause on the democratic
 sde) Ii has been proven false here to- day. I hope that the gentleman from Nebraske made the statement by being rnisinformed by other persons, and that the responsibility for the falseness of the statement does not rest upon the shoul- ders of the gentleman from Nebraska but if that is so, then I say, MT Speaker it is due to the gentleman from Nebras-
 ka, Mir. Bryan, it fig due to myself, 1t is
 due to this great democratic party that
 sits here today, that MT. Bryan should
 come out in the open, give his informant,
 investigate the facts, and when he finds
 the statement is false, brand it as it
 ought to be branded before the American
 people, Loud and continued applause )

The Interborough has adopted the principle that a single five
cent fare paid on the subway system shall carry a person from one
end to the other of the Greater City of New York. On the other
hand, the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company's plan proposes to
perpetuate a two-and three-fare system.
The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company's proposal is that it will
spend less than s2l 900, 900 for construction in improving it's ehva-
ted lines in Brooklyn and placing third tracks thereon if the Greater
City of New York will pay about $l6s, 900 900 of the taxpayers money
for subway construction and connect it with the out-of-date eeva-
ted lines in Brooklyn, provided further that all the receipts on the
Sideways built by the taxpayers money shall be used by the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Company in establishing for all time a dividend on
many of the improbable elevated lines in Boookyn.
Subway so that all the people in Brooklyn, including the outlying
districts, will be given a five-cent subway fare from n end to the
other ofthe Greater City of New York. If the Interboroughs plan is
adopted by the City it will save $5s, 1000, 900 OF the taxpayers money
that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company's plan calls for, and this
$685. OCO, 900, will construct the lines shown on this map to Rich
mond, to Jamaica and to Flushing, and if these lines n construc-
ted there would still be $780, 900 900 of the taxpayers moneys saved by
accepting the Interborough's plan.
The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co. adyertises that it will take only
$3, soc, 900 of City money to construct the rapid transit lines which
it has been showing in heavy black lines on it's advertising maps.
The misleading character Of this talk about cost can be seen read
lily by looking at its offer of April 25th. in which it was stated that
The evening world., 1911-05-25

This map shows what the Interborough Company has offered to
the City a s a comprehensive subway plan. The lines shown in heavy
broken lines a be Immediately constructed and placed in opera
ton for a single fve-cent subway fare in connection with the present
subway, the Bridge Loop, and the Fourth Avenue Subway. The total
construction cost will be sl9s, $3.50, of which the City pays
$llO, 800, $50 for construction and the lnterborough $685. 500. The
lnterborough supplies all Of the equipnent, which makes a total
contribution by the marlborough of Sl40, s24, 500. The Citys expen-
diture under this plan is $8, 600 600, less than called for by the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company's plan.
The Interboroughs plan establishes a universal fve-cent subua y
fare from Fort Hamilton, Coney Island, sheepshead Bay, East New
York, Ridgewood, Woodsde, Corona, Astoria and all parts of the
Bronx. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit COmpany's plan establishes a
ten-cent fare within the Greater City and for a great many of the
people in Queens, Manhattan and the Bronx a Gfteen-cent fare to
Coney Island. The Brooklyn Company claims that it will make a
great saving to Brooklyn people by extending it's lines into Manhat-
tan, thus avoiding a double fare.
The marlborough Company, by going to Brooklyn for the
people with it's numerous lines with a single fare, save more than
the Brooklyn Company claims to save, because on the marlborough
there will be a single fare to reach from every point in Brooklyn to
every point in Greater New York.
If the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company is ST interested in re-
ducng the expenditures OF the fare-payer, why do they insist in
\ their proposition that for a short ride from Brooklyn to Coney
sd.' and the fare must be ten cents?

Rapid Transit Company Offers to Reduce Fares to Manhattan al the Cys
Expense, But Refuses to Reduce Fares to Coney Island at that Company Expen

the City's requirement of new capital would be $73, 500 900 for the
lines then proposed.
Since that date and on May LIST the Brooklyn Company added
to it's so-caHed original lines:
/. The Jerome Avenue extension to Jerome Park Reservoir.
2. The Southern Boulevard extension to the Bronx River.
g.. Lines to Astoria and Corona.
d. The Nostrand Avenue extension.
S. The Livonia Avenue extension; and
6. The Fourteenth Street Tunnel to East New York.
But not a word has been said about the additional cost of these
lines. Every day since they were added the Brooklyn Company has
stuck to it's original figure of $73, 100000. More than this, and still
further showing the deceptiveness of their advertisements, the
BROOKLYN Company r placing upon their advertising maps In black
lines the following lines which they have not vel yet agreed to put
in their offer:
Ca0 The Southern Boulevard line extending as far as Pelham
Bay Park.
b) The Utica Avenue extension; and
() The Tunnel to Staten Island.
And still they seek to lead the public to believe that all the black
lines will cost the city only $3, 5O0 900.
Now the facts ar that the cost to the city of the lines first
mentioned by them will be $ll8,0O0,O00.
The cost to the city, with their additions of May LIST, will run
up to $685. 600, 900.
The grand total cost to the city of their layout rs advertised
