Delay and congestion in the subways
ley said. Figures. on subway train SER
tenn were explained in part yesterday
by Frank Hedley. vice president and
general manager of the 1nterborough,
at hearing before the Public Service
Commission as being due to the fol-
lowing:
Scarcity of trainmen. necessitating
reduction in service on some OF the
lines.
Increase in number of damaged cars
and lack of yard space and repair shop
space.
Trouble with new cars.
Impossbility of competing with war
industries in securing men.
General conditions of transportation,
however, are improving fast, Mr.. He'd
ley said. Figures on subway train ser
vice during the past two mornings,
gathered by the inspectors of the Pub
lie Service Commi ion, show that the
1nterborough is now averaging more
than seventy trains an hour during the
rush hours. Officials of the company
promised eightytwo trains.
Mr.. ,Hedley told the commission that
it was absolutely necessary to run a
minimum of thirty trains an hour be-
the rush hours and at least twenty ex.
press trains. He said the service had
been increased 80 per cent since the
III" system was opened. Regarding
the operation of two minute schedule,
or thirty trains an hour during rush
periods, he admitted that the schedules 8
were still irregular and that sometime 8
there had been intervals of TEN min
utes between trains.
Mr.. Hedley told the commission that
the 1nterborough would mot be able to
continue furnishing New Workers 7
cents worth of transportation for s
cents.
at costs s12,ooO,ooo year in wages
alone to run the subway and elevated d
lines in this city," he continued. "This
will be increased by s3,oOO,OOO when the
proposed raises in salary are given to
the employees"
The Interborough's general manager
said he thought the men would resent
the employment of women guards, but
that it would be done if the commits
sion ordered it, He declared the COM
pany had engaged 2.508 employees since
January l, while 2,621 had either been
dismissed or had obtained employment
elsewhere, leaving net deficiency of
113 employees.
Charles l. Standfast. supervising in
spector for the Public Service Commits
sion. submitted figures on subway
trans portation. The. observations, taken
at the Ninety sixth Street station on
the BroadwaySeventh Avenue subway
between 7 and q. m. and s and Q
a. H., respectively, follow:

steel plants and other war industries
offered much higher remuneration.

Subway Inquiry by
Governor Whitman

Attorney General Merton E. Lewis
launched another attack on Governor
Whitman yesterday, basing it on the
existing subway conditions, declaring
that the Public Service Commission is
responsible, and that the present situa-
ton demands "a thorough investigation
OF the Public Service Commission and
its activities"
II have repeatedly called Governor
Whltman's attention to the unsatisfac
tory conditions prevailing with the
subway in New York City" said the At
torney General last night. "The Gov
ernor has ignored the suggestion made
that he order an investigation of the
subway condition. There remains but
one thing for the patrons of the sub
way to do. They should address to the
Governor a formal demand that he or

commission and the traffic conditions

Manhattan Dealers Warned


License Commissioner Gilchrist and
Park Commissioner William F. Grell
saw to it that Manhattan newsdealers
were warned by their special ennis
saries Of the doom that impended. The
boys and women who have stands in
City Hall Park and the boys who pay
50 year for the privilege of peddline
papers wherever they choose in the
park were told that those rights and
privileges would be lost if they per-
sisted in refusing to sell Mr. Hearst's
papers. Fearing that the word might
not reach all the dealers at subway
ana elevated stations, many of whom
mad declined to sell the afternoon pa
pcrs which stood with Hearst, Commits
sioner Gilchrist sent the following mo-
tice to them:
ou are hereby advised that COM
plant has been made to the Office
that you are not serving the public,
as was contemplated when license
was granted by the city.
Unless this condition is remedied
steps Will be taken toward tho rev.

afternoon to discuss the situation, He

"Thcn why do you make us sell

Some, inspired by such courage as
animated Stanton, closed their stands
on learning of the threat which the
city administration held over their
heads; others, impelled often by force

The most serious danger our nation will face
In the epoch to follow the will be the ex-
tremes to which the direct-action theorists and
sdernagogues will wish to go in handing the
country over to radicals and doctrinaires The
long distance we have already moved away
from our ancient landmarks will be as nothing
Icompared to the lengths to which the country
will be asked to go in the direction of state So
Icialism, state ownership and the substitution
of popular votes for the calm consideration Of
Ilaw-making bodies and courts.
| "a senator from New York commented not
long ago on the responsibility of popular as
sembles. We wonder if the country realizes
how dangerously far we have gone along this
lime. Is it conceivable that Washington or any
of the presidents who helped to erect our struc-
Iture of government would have conducted di-
lrect primary campaigns in order to make them
iselves party candidates for Officer Would our
highest court judges be justified in giving pro-
llonged and profound consideration to funda-

lof government ownership in the voting booths

MUSIC AND LITERATURE.

News comes from London of the death there
of Liza Lehman, the English composer of the
song cycle ''In Persian Garden Liza Leh-
man was not a great composer nor is her most
famous achievement great music, but in it she
did something rarely done and always worth
doing. She took the Fitzgerald ''Rubaiyat of
Omar Khayam' and set it to music that was
well written and eminently appealing by melod-
ious simplicity This means that she created
a musical medium to carry literature to great
number of people. There is much skill in hand
ling the material used, even if the material it
self is not highly original, and some numbers
of the cycle rise to genuine creation. ''The
Daisy CHAIN which also had wide popularity
has sprightly fitness to it's text that is quite
as ingenious as that of the more dgnifed com
position. These two cycles are the best as well
as the best known Of Madame Lehman's work,
although her setting of Tennyson's sEIn
Memoriam' for baritone voice gained wide
hearing through its performance by David Bis
pham. Madame Lehman's most popular music
was her best music.

The savagery which characterized
the submarine campaign was Wv

WHO is kEYES7

Davenport Democrat: The Demo-
crat, in common with the other
democratic papers and the demo
cratic leaders Of Iowa, are heartily
advocating the reelection of Senator
William S. Kenyon of Iowa.
Few of them know who Charles
IR Keyes is. His claim to fame will
be that he "butted in" on the po-
litical situation in Iowa this year
and. thanks to our primary law, was
able to nominate himself and get
enough votes to have a place on the
democratic ticket as candidate for
senator.
There is a good deal of curiosity
as to who Reyes is. Alex Miller of
the Washington Democrat, who GER
tainly knows all the representative
members of his party in Iowa, gives
lit up. He says in recent issue OF
his paper:
"The Knoxville Express feels about
this man Keyes, who has foisted
himself upon the Democrats for sena-
tor, just as we do. That is, we want
to ask. who in thunder is Keyes
Old Casey says he is a doctor, but
we do not know whether he Is a
boss doctor, doctor of divinity, a
'yarb' doctor, or just an ordinary
doc Anyhow, he has no business on
the Democratic ticket, and we do not
agree to run his name on our ticket
