I ransit Lines Renew
Higher Fare Fight

Representatives of the transit com
panies appeared before the Public Ser
wee Commission yesterday and argued
that the commission had the power to
grant financial relief to the companies
by permitting an increase in fares and
two-cent charge for transfers on GER
tain lines, despite the recent decision
OF the Court Of Appeals t. the con-
trary.
49, Alfred A. Cook, representing the
Third Avenue system, declared that
sQme of the lines he represented die
not come within the restrictions as de-
fined by the Court of Appeals. Henry
J. Smith, representing The New York
Railway system, held tha- the commits
sion had power to relieve the companies
OF statutory burdens placed upon them
such as, for instance, transfer obliga-
tions.
"There cannot be any doubt that the
commission has full power over the
question of transfers." said Mr.. Smith
1T can hold hearings and waive the
granting Of transfers. | state now that
II we don't get some relief, it will be
necessary for the company to &C
through receivcrship eventually and
stltuent companies. Once that has oc-
CURED many transfers will be cut off ,
A. M. Williams, representing the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit system, con-
tended that the commission had power
OF action whore the grans of powers
to the road had been made by the state
rather than by the city. He declared
that there were 1882 transfer points
IN the B. r. 7. system where the com.
mission had full power to act in regard
to transfers. The hearing was ad-

SAUL BARNES.
Let confirmed drinkers use drugs
if they must when liquor can no
longer be obtained, but safeguard
growing children from the evils Of
drink and we will have d sober ma
tion in a generation CIR two, suggests
Bertha Mapes, who writes:
Whenever a man, woman or child,
wants or desires to do a thing which
the dictates of conscience forbid, that
person will search in all dire ectlons for
some excuse or some plausible reason
for committing the act Now it seems
tonne that these are the only people
who in this day can argue against pro-
hibtion, because the period Of agita-
tion has passed and it has been long
since granted that the use of alcohol
has been the chief factor in causing
insanity, crime, poverty and disease.
In all the famous cases in which the
righ. of the Legislature to pass laws
prohibiting the manufacture OF alco-
hol has been attacked on the ground
of Gepriving persons Of property with
out due process Of law, the statutes
have been held constitutional and the
law sustained, because of the police
power of the state which gives it the
right to interfere with it's citizens in
any case where it is necessary for the
! health and moral welfare of the peo-
pie. Thus it mas been established
beyond question that liquor is harm
full.
Of course, we know that if liquor is
taken in very small quantities it may
not harm person consttutionally
strong, but it is fact beyond dispute
that every living being starts out with
the intention of taking just little.
OF all these beginners just so many
thousands must fill the drunkard's
grave. Therefore, if every young man
or woman can be kept from making a
start. at the game Of drinking he or
she will certainly not make finish
After the prohibition amendment is
once enacted am willing to grant that
the older people of this generation may
still continue to obtain their drink by
illegal methods, or they may turn to
other drugs, but the boys and girls who
are growing eup will have no desire for
strong drinks, and in a couple of gem
erations it will be as strange as it
would be for a man to keep slaves in
one of our homes to-day
