The report charges that, while prog

The League of Women Voters held
the first of series of non partisan
rallies last night in the parish hall of
the Madison Avenue Baptist Church, at
80 East Thirty-first Street. Congress-
man La Guardia, Miss Bertha Rem
baugh and former Senator James A.
Foley were the chief speakers. Of
these Senator Foley made the most
direct appeal for the votes of the
welfare legislation introduced by the
women Of the state last year.

it has to do with settling the property

he had supported the widows pension,
for women teachers, the welfare pro-
gram, the bill permitting women to
watch at the polls at the suffrage cleo
ton, and the ratification of the Federal
amendment.
"The women Of New York ought to
be very grateful to the group of young
and progressive men, who have been

forward steps in the progress of

Puts
Fares Problem
Up to Mayor
B. r. T. Receiver, in Speech
to Queens Chamber of
Commerce, Challenges
Hylan to Offer Solution
Hedges Suggests a Plan
Says City Should Provide
Engineers to Try to Run
Lines Without a Loss

Lindley NJ. Garrison, receiver of the
b. n. I. system, yesterday challenged
Mayor Hylan and the city authorities
to offer logical solution of the transit
situation. Speaking at luncheon of
the Chamber of Commerce of Queens,
at the Hotel Commodo Mr.. Garrison
said he would 60 into conference i'm
mediately with the municipal repre-
sentatives if plan were brought for
ward.
$50 far, all we've been able to ascer-
tain is that the city authorities r.ill
not consent to raise in fares" said
Mr.. Garrison. That's negative
stand, and is no solution of the prob
lem. We haven't been able to find out
what solution they have in mind with
regard to the greatest problem before
public officials to-day.
"The moment the city officials come
out and say, This is our solution,' l,
for one, can assure them of instant CO.
operation. l am ready to sit down
with the city authorities at any time
to take up a fair solution. If such q
solution is introduced it must and it
will be adopted"
More Revenue for Good Service
Mr.. Garrison said his sole duty as
receiver, appointed by the courts, was
to preserve the property, to operate it
to give the best service to the public.
Good service he said. could be main
tanned onlV through increased revenues,
and the only source OF income of the
companies was through fares.
He said there may have been scandal
in the past in connection with the
management Of the roads, but that the
question was one of the present
moment. There never was moment
since he was made receiver, he said,
that every archive of the company was
not open to every duly authorized
public official, but that opportunity had
not been taken advantage Of.
Mr. Garrison disposed of Mayor
Hylans plan that the lines be scrapped
or turned over to the city as "outside
the realm Of common sense" He at
tackled the citys way of going about
the problem as mot fair, equitable or
proper He added that it would re-
main in that status until the public
makes its opinion felt, through civic
and neighborhood organizations. for q
just solution.
Job Hedges, who also spoke at the
luncheon said the city's attitude was a
bid on the part of one man ''for ap-
plause or later political preferment." :"
! He characterized the citys stand as
menta larceny predictated on actua
larceny" He suggested that Mayor Hy-
az get engineers busy, run some Of the
cars at a fare fixed by him, and thus

He said only in this experimental way
could fares be set right.
MIR. Hedges said that if he were per-
suaded that the money fc- running the
lines was coming out of other peoples
pockets, he would quit operating them
and have them put in the barns, as
he would be committing breach of his
trust as receiver.
Mr.. Hedges hinted at William Ran
dolph Hearst's editorial support of the
no-increase stand of the Mayor with
out mentioning the publishers name.
The Mayor is relying too much on
the judgment of another person who is
arguing political instead of economic
problems" he said THAT person is
getting ready to sever the intimacy.

in the governorship election.
II is understood that Fable Con
@ales will be Gen. Obregon's opponent

rostponing the election as he has sug
gested. The failure of Gonzales to
announce his candidacy and begin his
campaign is causing Obregon's friends
some uneasiness.

torial election in which the govern
ment candidates, de la Huerta, was
elected by big plurality. The
troops quartercd in the State under
command of Gen. P. Elias Gales and
his b-commanders, Gen. Juan Tor
res, Gen. Francisco Cruz and Gen.
Francisco Serrano, moved about from
town to town, it was said, casting
vote in each place.
This was easy to do with out detec-
ton, it was pointed out, as each candi-
date has his distinctive ballot with a
border printed in color which is re-
Cistered with the Secretary of State of
Sonora. There is no registration of
voters. 1t follows as a matter of
course that the man who controls
the army controls the elections.
Gen. Gales recently was announced
to Mexico City and appointed Minister
of Commerce and industry in the
Carranza cabinet, but he has since re-
turned to Sonora with the announced
intention Of campaigning against the
YaGuis. He is a strong man and is
known to hold Sonora in an iron grip
with his troops he can compel it to
go any way he dictates.
1t is now believed that Gales will
remain in Sonora indefinitely, con-
duct his campaign aaginst the va
quis and watch the national situation
from a better point of vantage. He
is said to be out of his element at
Mexico City.
