Hitchcock Thinks Amended
Covenant Will Be Ratified

Washington, May Ex-senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, retiring
chairman of the senate foreign rela-
tions committee, in a statement to-
day upon his return from speak
ing trip in support of the league of
nations, reiterated his belief that the
amended covenant would be rati-
fred and said he expected the docu-
Tient and the peace treaty to be con,
sidcred in open session of the sem

II the republicans should SIC
coed in defeatings the covenant"
said the statement, that will make
it the issue i'll the next campaign
and, in my opinion, the rock upon
which the republican party will split,
The amendments adopted in Paris
have removed every objection which
friends of the league could hold to.
Those who now oppose it are ir-
reconcil;ables who are against any
league.
NO attempt to amend the cove
nant in the senate will succeed, in
ny opinion. Efforts may be made
to ratify with reservations, such res>
crvations to be stated in the resolu-
ton OF ratification, but even that, I
believe will not succeed. I do not
believe it will be possible for those
who esire amendments to muster
majority OF the senate in favor Of
thers. Some think the United States
ought 10 have dictated the league
and ought to control it. In that
case Where would have been no

Hearst Comments on

Short Stop in Omaha

William Randolph \Hearst, be-
tween trains at the Union depot, de.
clared that he did not believe that
the covenant Of the league of ma
tons sets forth specifically just
where the obligations Of this coun-
try would begin, and end.
He pointed out that one of the
provisions would, if adopted, bind
the United States to use its army
and navy to help Great Britain anG
other league members to hold their
possessions.
Il am opposed to entering into
any agreement which would bind us
to help England or any other roun-
try holding colonies by force" he
said. He ccntended that the GOV,
cnant should make every point SO
clear that there would be no Dues
ton as to what might be-expected
of this country under any circum-
stances. He denied that he was

WASHINGTONIANS INDIGNANT
OVER REPORT OF 6-CENT FARE
Notwithstanding That Companys Represent
ative Promised They Would Not Oppose
Granting of Free Transfers at Points.

Indignation was voiced by WashinA
tonians last night over the report that
the Washington Railway and Electric
Company is preparing to apply to the
Public Utilities Commission for per-
mission to charge 6-cent cash fares ia
the District.
In view of the fact that hardly more
than two months ago the Public Utili-
ties Commission increased the already
war-swollen revenues OF the two city
companies by approximately $1,000, coo
through the order authorizing the
companies to abolish the sale of six
tickets for 25 cents and to charge
cash fare of ) cents per passenger
per trip. public sentiment can be
counted upon to condemn this move in
no uncertain terms.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Public Utilities Commission, i'm its
opinion and order granting the 81 600
900 increase in the two companies
revenues by allowing them to charge
straight scent fare. stated that the
president of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company and the vice
president of the Capital Traction Com
pany declared they would oppose no
legal objection to the granting of free
transfers at points where in the Opin-
ion OF the commission the public ir-
terests demand il, it has since been
strongly intimated that they would
appeal to the courts in case the com
missions decision went against them
When an effort was made yester-
day to obtain definite information
The Washington herald., 1919-01-04

as to the reported purpose of the
company to ask for further in
creases in fares, President William
F. Ham, issued a statement which
reads in part as follows:
AT the hearing in intercompany
transfers scheduled before the Pub
lie Utilities Commission for Tues
day" said President Ham. the
company does, however. propose to
present figures showing that it can.
not live on a five-cant fare, in the
face of steadily mounting expenses.
The relief afforded by the straight
five-Cent fare has not been sufficient
to meet the increased wage scale
and increased operating and main
tenance cost. Whether or not the
company will ask for additional in
crease in fares cannot be stated at
this time. The figures we shall pre-
sent at the interCompany transfer
hearing. however, will show for
themselves
1t is understood the Capital Trac-
ton Company purposes to submit
statistics along the same lines as
those of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company at the inter-
company transfer hearing Tuesday.
The Capital Traction Company, ii is
stated. does not plan to initiate any
steps looking toward petition for
increased fares. but will follow the
other company. being in accord with
it in the assertion that the Wash
ington street railway systems can
not live on fiVe-cent fare basis.
