Disaster In DividipG Control.

These contracts involve not only the
construction of new lines but the re-
construction OF practically all the ele-
waited roads in the city. During this
period Of reconstruction service must
be maintained and its regulation and
control coordinated with the constru--
ton work.
From The standpoint OF the ci,y's
finances also we believe that a dlvi-
-on of control would tend to be disas-
'rous Under the dual contracts, I'M
NJ. the lines are self-supporting any
increased cost operation would tend
20 reduce the amount available for in
t'rest and sinking fund payments on
he construction bonds which have been
issued by the city. A. IN" city Is al
ready financially s.raiteued through
It's expenditures for what Is practically
a reconstruction of It's entire rapid tran
81 system It is important that there
should he no overregulation in the early
operating period II Is obvious that a
separate state board or a single State
board not responsible to the city might
40 increase the cost Of operation as TO
very seriously embarrass the city iindn-
cially
"As TO the capacity % the Board OF
Estimate and AppOrtionment to tax"

ress we can simply say that those who
are in touch with the administration
know how seriously overhurdened the
board already is with work which Is
constantly increasing and Will continue

phes our municipal government. We
believe that TO increase the strain al
ready on the board by adding a load
Of this magnitude could only result

Suffrage Resolution Defeated in
House, 204 Against, ia For.

Washington, D.. c., Jan. 12.-By a
vote less than two thirds necessary
and 80 less than a majority, the
House defeated the Mondell resolu.
luton providing for woman suffrage
through an amendment to the Federal
constitution.
The Missouri delegation voted II
for to 8 against, Speaker Clark and
Representative Igo not voting. The
latter, however, was paired against
the resolution.
Virtually the entire South voted
against the measure, Representative
Hobson of Alabama, who sponsored
the resolution few weeks ago for
national prohibition, being an excep-
ton and casting his vote with the
suffragettes.
1t is understood that the fear of the
negro vote caused the Southerners to
cast their votes with the ants.
State rights, however, actuated
some Of them to oppose the Mondell
resolution.
