Five Million Dollars a Year!

An average of ONE MILLION per-
IONS each day crosses the East River
counting the tide in both directions. This
vast army-the workers of a great city
brings to Manhattan the brains and hands
which in large part are the active forces in
New York's industrial and mercantile life.
A few of this great multitude walk
across the bridges, a few are carried by
ferry. but the great majority must o and
IN the future depend upon railroad trans
portation: and of this majority by far the
greater number must use the lines OF the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company. which
now carry their passengers only to and
from the gateway of Manhattan.
How many out of the million now pay
two fares in their daily journeys nobody
can actually determine. The number has
been estimated at from 800, 900 to 5O0,-
600. Call it only 800, coo. Our transit
proposal means then to them a saving Of
$4,000 each day-a saving to them and
to the community of over $4,000, 600
each year.
Five million dollars a year represents
the interest at 5 per cent. on an investment
of 800, 10000. We do not ask the city
to make this investment. We merely ask
the city to let us have the opportunity of
giving to the people what is equivalent to
the return on such an investment.
W. do ask the city to invest $73. 5OO,-
600 of its moneys in subways which, oper-
ated with our rapid transit lines, will make
possible this enormous saving tOthe people
and at the same time furnish t%ransporta-
ton relief to ~three-quarters of the city's
population. We present a financial plan
and transportation routes which will GER
tainly yield full interest and amortization
on that city investment.
For $73, 100000 then, expended as we
suggest, the city is assured not only a full
return on it's MISUNDERSTANDING ne bur
den npon the taxpayers-but it may, in
addition, save $5,0OO,O0 ANNUALLY
in car fares to its people!
Conditions render it impossible for
the city to make such a profitable in
vestment by contract with any other
company.
Can there be any doubt in which
direction the city's interest lies! 1t is the
knowledge and appreciation OF facts like
these which make our proposal strong with
the people and commend its adoption to
students Of municipal welfare and progress.
