passage by city council OF Mayor

the city's measure will be decided
upon by the company until after Miller
arrives.
In the meantime, however, local
officers OF the company are at work
on several plans, one of which is the
discontinuance OF service on those
lines where the franchises have ex-
PRED. This. the company believes,
would remove the grounds on which
the city passed the emergency rental
ordinance.
Such discontinuance OF service
would interfere with practically every
lire in the city, for the expired fran
chises practically cover the heart OF
the system
, Another possible development is an
application by the company for re-

The eagerness OF the people OF To

for the city of Toledo, has spent con
siderable time in the Maumee town
the past few months and has attended
a number Of these meetings in the

IT is refreshing TO one familiar
with the Detroit situation TO sit
through one of those meetings" said
Mr.. Bancroft to The Times. There
is no evidence of groveling or stand
ing in awe of corporation influence.
and il is apparent that the mayor and
the councilmen are honestly trying TO
protect the peoples rights. In one
meeting attended the president OF

ownership at the option of the city,

No price is fixed in the Thompson
ordinance. and the mayor has boosted
that he personally would not stand
for it,
Mayor Whitlock insists also on an
initial rate of fare OF three cents. The
initial rate OF face in the Thompson
ordinance and in the old Detroit rail-
way ordinance TO which IL Is supple
mental is five cents. That is, IL pas
senger has.no ticket and does NOT
choose TO buy a strip, he must pay a
nickel Mayor Whitlock wants real
three-cent fares for the people, and
under such a franchise as he pro-
poses. and as is already provided for
in the temporary ordinance, any pas
senger may tender three cents for a
ride In that case, the use OF tickets
will be merely convenience.
Ii is related that the president OF
the Toledo traction company, after
one of the open conferences, invited
Mayor Whitlock 10 go TO lunch with
him
The mayors reply was something TO
this effect:
II will not go to lunch with you now
nor at any other time and YOU need
not repeat the invitation. When you
