and We feel that the 2-ccnt transfer is
unreasonable for so short a haul, and
that 1t constitutes an actual burden on

stated that 1t was their opinion that

Old Laws Cited.
1--WE respectfully invite your atren-
tion to what seemed to be the intent
and purpose OF Congress on universal
transfers. by quoting the enactment Of
some laws relating to street raIlUav
franchises in the District of Column

been prosecuted for violation of the
aforesaid act In speaking of the
resolution, Senator Lane said: L be
lieve transfers at all junction points
are required by the original legisla-
ton. We want to find out the facts,
and II the law Is being violated, find
out why there have not been prosecu-
tions, and IL there are no require
ments for universal transfers, then
we will require it by law. The situa-
ton here is indefensible.'
THE street railway compan nies can
give better service than they are
giving by a fuller use of cars and
men. as there is no longer any
reason for not having enough crews
nor for not running enough cars. 1t
is sincerely hoped that the street
railway companies will not merely
favor giving free intercompany
transfers at points where few pas
sengers want them. but will voiun-
tarily grant free intercompany
transfers at the heavy traflc points
where people riding will be able to
use both lines to the fullest ad-
vantage. and thereby regain some of
the public good will, that they are
in need of, by agreeing to grant free
transfers to all the points recon-
mended by Mr.. Beeler. the trafic ex-
pert.
VIII Reduce Congestion.
Establishment of transfer points
will tend to reduce the congestion
on the cars by assuring through
passage to destination with less
riding. This consideration is inn
portant. and in putting the transfer
system into effect it should be borne
in mind that the public was given
no grace in the application of the
five-cent fare, which became oper-
ative without notice on the day Of
issue.
The report of Mr.. Beeler, formu-
lated after a careful study of the
local situation by a man who knows
the street car business by actual ex-
perience. should be approved, and
the Commission should set a definite
date on which free transfers at all
points recommended by Mr.. Peelcr
shall be put in operation, and il
on that date tire companies refuse
free transfers at any Of these points.
the five-cent fare order should be
revoked and the siX-for-a-Quartcr
rate restored that day.
TT is perfectly plain in the order
issued by the commission granting
the fve-cent fare that the free
transfers is dependent only on the
judgment of the commission.
