ment Of the company's earnings. The
better the transit Facilities the moro they
are used. Highspsed lines, create busi-
ness. just as they create values. The
oig thing now is to perfect an operating
agreement for the new lines with the
company. The Mayor recently stated
that negotiations were under way. We
assume that the public will be given
ample opportunity to study and digest the
agreement, for the most scrupulous care
is requisite In an affair involving so much
money and Of such enormous Importance

In this part of the country. Mayor Smith,
with all his power, has been assisted in
carrying his financial program to its pres
ent state by ward leaders and Councilmen
who owe their allegiance to Senator Edwin
H. Vare and his brother. Congressman
William s.. Ware. Most of tho opposition
to the loan bills and many Of the obstacles
to the passage of necessary legislation IN
Councils originated from followers of the
Penrose.McNichol faction. Senator James
p. MoNichol heads q number of contract
ing concerns noted for the magnitude of
their operations in every big city of the
East. Both the Ware and McNichol con-
Germs have already gained a foothold in
transit work, and their share in the many
big projects planned will make interesting
reading during the years that Mayor
Smith is in office.
Influence Of the Wares
Admittedly most Of Mayor Smiths
Directors owe their political prominence
and positions to the Ware forces. This
is doubly the case with his Assistant
Directors. What Significance. II any. can
be attached to this condition is a ques-
ton that time alone will tell.
Just how soon an effort will be made
to float loans out of the funds authorized
has not been determined. This is not
indicative of delay. as under existing laws
the loan funds of the city are used for
loan purposes and a general loan fund
is maintained SO that contract payments
can be made as they como due out of
central fund. The effect OF an effort TO
float any considerable portion OF loans at
one time is feared, as bankers on recent
loan issue did not offer nearly such high
premiums for city 4 per cent bonds as
was the case at the last issue under for
mer Mayor Blankenburg and before the
city had been definitely launched upon its
present ambitious campaign for improve
ments.
II present plans are carried out bonds
will be sold In tho not distant future TO
cover the S4,900.o00 needed to maintain
the city government from now until the
end of the year. 1t is planned to have
this bond issue for a period of five years
only, so that posterity will not be called
upon TO shoulder burder that under any
'pay-asyou-go" act would have to be met
during the year the expenses were In
CURED. Other bond issues will cover pro-
vision for new transit work and for money
70 take over property along the Parkway.
Former City Solicitor Ryan estimated that
approximately S1O.ooO.Ooo would be needed
this year for Parkway purposes alone.
Bankers will. during the next year. have
unusual opportunities to obtain city 4 per
cent bonds for periods OF years ranging
from fivs to 80. and the lettings will un-
doubtedly make new financial history for
Philadelphia
Future loans that the citizens will be
asked to approve win be based upon needs
for a new Blockley. as the ss.o0o.0o0 in
the present loans for Philadelphia Gen
eral Hospital win be expended at Byberry
Farms and less than s1.O0o.o00 Of old loan
moneys is available for improving some
OF the antiquated buildings at Bloeklsy.
This ever-popular cry is counted on to
carry less popular measures in loans that
are as yet tentatively discussed by Mayor
Smiths financial advisers.
