MAYOR WANTS CITY
TO RUN BUS LINES
Thinks Motor Vehicles Would
Curb Traction Lines.

Mayor Hylan took a new tack yester-
day in his fight on the transit lines OF
the city by initiating a movement to
have the city establish bus lines In every
borough.
'Tt appears to me,y he said, that the
only quick solution of the problem Is to
have the city authorities enter the tran
sit field. This may be accomplished. ]

expenditure and should, with proper
planning. and adequate supervision, be-
come an immediate source OF revenue to
the city"
This resolution was passed unani-
mously by the Board of Estimate:
THAT the Commissioner of Plant and
Structures be directed to make n COM
prehensive study of the existing transit
facilities in all boroughs and the avail
able statistics relating thereto, and TO
submit TO this board a report thereon.
with recommendations for the establish
ment OF notorious lines throughout the
five boroughs. to be owned and operated
by tie city. In order to meet the needs
of the people such report to indicate
the routes of such lines, the estimated
cost of equipment and of annual opera
ton, with estimated revenue, as well as
a request for the authorization Con n
revenue producing basis) which would
be required to effect the establishment
of such routes"
In his communication to the Board
of Estimate the Mayor said the ques-
ton of providing proper transit facili-
ties was becoming more acute.
THE transit companies have been per-
mitted to charge the people for trans
fers," he added. "and are proposing to
increase fares. I intend to fight to the
last ditch any attempt to increase fares
as there is no necessity for such in
| crease"

that purchased from druggists. 1t is

|CLAREMONT ASKS
FOR CUT IN RENT
Says Prohibition Has Hit Net
Receipts Hard.

Because of the falling off in receipts
due to prohibition. the management Of
the Claremont restaurant, near Grants
Tomb, made application yesterday to the
Board of Estimate through Park Com
missioner Gallatin for reduction in
rent. The lease, which is for $20.500 a
year, was made In November and con-
tanned clause that 1t could be cancelled

into effect The representative of r. A.
Gushee who runs the resort. said he
would be willing to retain the lease II a
substantial reduction in rental was made.

bar business amounted to s10.62s, of
which the profits were $6.0se. In July
of this year the bar receipts from nom
intoxicating drinks were $4,000. Tho
profits have not been estimated. but I
know they will be very low. This shows
what prohibition meant to the Clare

seven years without complaint.

Supplementary petitions designating
Justice Newburger for the Democratic
primaries were nled BY a representative
OF the committee Of the bar. Clarence
II. Fay. secretary of the Republican
County Committee. also filed supple
mentary petitions designating Justice
Newburger as a candidate for the Re
publican Nomination. He said he did not
know how many additional names he
had, as he was too busy taking In petit
tons up to the last minute TO count
them.
A Democrat, who favored the redesig-
nation OF Justice Newburger by the or
eanization and who intends to support
HIM regardless of the action of Charles
r. Murphy In turning him down said
last night:
Now that Justice Newburger has
consented to run In order to vindicate
the principle that Judge who has
served efficiently for one term should be
renominated regardless of party con-
sideration the four lawyers associations
should meet at once and pass resolutions
denouncfng the action of Tammany Hall
In turning him down for the son Of
Samuel Untermyer. II Ia vital now that
these organizations which have In
dorsed both him and Justice Smith for

OF the principle of a non-psrtisan Judi
ciary by Charles r. Murphy and one or

A close friend of Justice Newburger
said last night he was convinced that
the Judges mind was quite made up on
the proposition Of not running in the
Democratic primaries and he was sure
that neither Justice Francis NJ. Scott nor
any one else could change II.
Persons designated for the primaries
have until August Is to file a declina-
ton of the designation.
Judge Richard H. Smith has announced
his intention of remaining in the Demo-
cratic primaries and fighting It out for @
denomination there. While he does not
intend to make an active compaign he
said he would ask the privilege Of max.

Of Charles s. Guggenheimer. partner OF

was fair warning to Justices Platzek
