of Utilities Commission to
Exercise Authority.

\ petition for an injunction was fled
in the District Supreme Court today by
the Terminal TaXicab Company against
the Public Utilities Commission to pre-
vent the latter from exercising its au-
thority over the corporation as pre-
sCribed by the law creating the COM
mission.
The Federal TaXicab Company fled a
similar suit asking The court TO set
aside the commissions OrdeF OF jan
uary 3, assuming jurisdiction over the
two taXicab companies. Rules return
able January 20 were issued in eacn
case by Justice Stafford.
1t is developed by the suit that the
commission has called upon the Ter
minal TaXicab Company and the Fed
eral TaXicab Company to file with the
commission by January q a schedule
showing all their rates, tolls and
charges in effect now, and also to sub
nit a supplement setting forth the
tolls, rates, and charges effective on

tracts with the Washington Terminal

nature and mo concern of the public.
The argument is also advanced that its
Virginia charter expressly prohibits the
corporation from engaging in or eXer-
cising any powers Of a public service
