OF SURFACE LINES
Public Service Commission
Seeks Data for Possible
Transit Cuts.

Curtaiment of the service on the sur
face transit lines in this city was fore
Swallowed at the beginning yesterday OF
an investigation by the Public Service
Commission into tho general conditions"
of such lines. On motion OF Commits
sioner Hervey a conference committee
was named. consisting Of representatives
OF the railway companies and of the
commission, to make report on the
following points:
"a What lines largely used by the
public are now supplying inadequate
service, and what additional service
thereon Is necessary to meet the public
need7
what Lines Can BE Suspended.
(c) What, II any, surface lines in the
city can be discontinued during the
period of the war without serious In
convenience TO the public?
(3) Where service cannot be discon-
| tinued what reduction In non-rush hour
service can be made?
90 II any discontinuance OF service
or reduction In service is recommended
what will be the annual or monthly saw
| ing thereby, expressed in quantity Of
materials or labor and In money
(a) In the consumption OF coal,
OBJ In the release of labor to other
lines.
tc) In tho release Of cars to other
lines
(d) In the general overhead of opera
ton and In the maintenance OF property
In the streets.
(e) In the release of property which
can be taken wholly out of service.
As the basis for any discontinuance
or reduction in service, II is suggested
that weight be given to the following
conditions:
D Where lines, either of the same
system or OF competing systems. parable
other lines q short distance away, OF
where one line can be used reasonably &c
meet the service now performed by two
or moro,
GU Where surface lines run parable
on nearby streets, or are located under Of
over an existing rapid transit line.
Financial Review Also Asked.
(D Where lines now accommodate s
comparatively small percentage OF tn
public, and where this service, trans
ferred to congested lines. would give re
lief and service TO n large number of pa
| irons; except mat where, In suburban
localities. the 'scontinuance of lin
would deprive the locality Of its onl,
service, such a line should not be dis
continued.
The companies are requested to pre-
pare for submission at the next session
