way Commission for Addi-
tional improvements.

The annual report of the District cleo
trio railway commission was presented to
the interstate commerce commission this

tains complete information as to what it

ers'' on ali lines within the District,
bringing about the substitution of air
brakes for the old hand brakes formerly
in use and the gradual elimination of
the runningboard type of open summer

soon be replaced with modern semi-con-
| vertible cars that may be opened on all
sides during the summer. or that can be
| closed during bad weather.
The report follows:
THE District commission has held thir-
ty-seven executive sessions and eight pub
l:c sessions during the year.
lone hundred and six complaints were
received during the year. OF these COM
paints. ninety-four were disposed of
either by the direct informal action of
this commission or by the interstate COM
merce commission after recommendation
by this commission.
The causes of complaint have been car
crowding; types of cars; failures to stop
for passengers: incivilty of employees; de-
fective equipment: inefficient ventilation
and heating; unclean cars; insufficient
number of cars on certain lines: speed of
cars, etc. Many complaints have also
been received regarding condition of track
and roadbed. waiting stations. transfers
