The second objection OF Colonel Potter
was mat the company has reserved the
right TO finance the equipment of the lines
on loans bearing 6 per cent interest and
per cent sinking fund charges. payable out
or earnings although the city could borrow
ana sink In its loan at a total of per
cent
In answer to this. Mr.. Taylor offers three
points: First, the company. since II shares In
the ultimate profit OF the undertaking In the
down fixed charges and therefore, will Dor.
row the money for equipment at as low a
figure ms possible: second AS the equip.
ment would require renewals from time to
time. the city II financing IT would be re-
CURED to issue bonds totaling many times
the actual value Of the equipment IN service
whereas under company financing the equip
ment bonds become n direct lien against
the equipment purchased third, the city at
the present time does not possess the nec-
essary borrowing capacity to finance the
equipment without curtaiing the construc-
tion program.
Tho third objection Of Colonel Potter was
that the lease as now wordcd might require
the city to pay twice for the equipment
upon the expiration Of the contract. That
such an intention was over held by those
who framed the lease Is denied by Mr. ray
lor, and he declared that "all parties In in
tercst will agree t. so amend the wording
OF the lease as to clarity and confirm this
fact"
The fourth objection Of Colonel Potter
was that the company produced no good
reason for rcserving the right to charge any
rate for exchange tickets or to restore eS-
change tickets when once abolished. In re-
plying TO this. Mr.. Taylor asserts positively
that the right Is not reserved 10 the COM
pany To restore the exchange tickets.
I'm discussing the provision that the COM
pany may increase the fare If found ncCes-
sary to meet all charges at the end OF any
slx-month period, Mr.. Taylor says in part
What the present proposed lease does
assure to the company is that thh rate or
fare shall always he sufficient to pay the
per cent on the Company's stock
"'rhe company is now maktng more than
S2700,0o0 year. II only requires $1,000

Of the company under the terms of the
present proposed lease. that profit would
have to he cut in half, and the earnings of
