Dla the SuhwavsI

It is to be hoped that the decision
of the Cour. Of Appeals In the matter
OF the right Of contractors to employ
alien labor in the construction Of New
York City's subways will not be long
delayed Pending this decision no
more contracts for rapid transit work
Will be awarded, and even with the
building Of the tunnels pushed as
rapidly as possible. Chairman Mccall
Of the Public Service Commission
does not hope to see the new dual
subway system approach completion
before the close OF 1915.
Tha. means at least three more
years Of straphanging under condi.
tons growing progressively worse all
the time. It may mean good deal
delay about the awarding Of the con.
tracts still remaining 70 he let. The
appellate divisions decision that the
subway contractors may hire aliens
appears to be reasonable one but
Tor every person Interested in how
the dispute may be settled there wiz
be at least 1000 straphangers inter
ested in seeing It settled either one
way or the other.
