Utility Board Makes Answer
on State Zone System
CONTINUED from page IL

was apparent that the then existing
rate schedule bore no equitable rela-
ton to the cost of service or the
length of haul. 1t was generally adj
mitted by all of the witnesses called
by the municipalities and the COM
mission that the zone plan proposed
was more scientifically equitable
than any plan extant either in the
cities of the United States or else
where. The experts produced by the
municipalities contended for a low in
itial fare or an enlargement of the
initial zone. 1t is fundamental that
increased rates tend to diminish traf-
fc while decreased rates attract traf-
fic. The encouragement of the rid
ing habit and the elimination of jit-
ney competition would result in en-
HANGING the gross revenue of the com
pany and consequently reduce the
cost of each rider. The effect of any
plan upon the public could not be
accurately determined in advance of
actual operation"
After reviewing the various steps
in the proceedings affecting the Pub
lie Service rates during the past year
and the action of the War Labor
Board in granting the company's en-
ployes increases, which forced Presi-
dent Thomas N. McCarter's company
finally to come in and ask for either
an Increase VI the Aldl ldIS VI 9 SShlo
to 9 cents or one of several alterna-
tive zone fare propositions, the Board
reached the following conclusion:
From the experience of the Board
in rate cases as we'll as its knowledge
of the street railway situation
throughout the United States, it was
the Boards judgement that neither
the public interest nor the interest Of
the railway company would be con-
served by permitting an increase in
the fiat rate of fare in excess of the
prevailing rate of Z cents. Such &C
ton would only have resulted in great
turmoil, particularly among the short
haul riders; jitney competition would
be further increased; and walking en-
couraged, resulting in decreased rev.
enues to the company insufficient to
permit 1t to continue to function. 1t
was the Judgment of the Board from
it's knowledge of the experience of
other railway companies operating in
cities of the United States comparable
in size with cities of this State that
the then prevailing rate of Z cents
was the maximum hat could be
charged by the railway company as a
fiat charge.

The ordinary clover and all its vari-
cites, including shamrock, are harom-
eters. When rain is coming the leaves
shut together like the shells Of an oy-
ster. For a day or two before rain
m their stems swell to an appreci-
able extent, and stiffen so that the
leaves are borne more ~uprightly than
usual. This stem swelling when rain
is expected is a feature Of many flow
ering grasses.

NOTED WOMEN IN WORK
Mrs. Vincent Aston and Mrs. Theodore
Roosevelt Jr, Enlist in East.

Mrs. Vincent Astor and Mrs. Theo-
dore Roosevelt, Jr., will be two of the
principal workers of the Division Of
Women Speakers during the Victory
Liberty Loan campaign. Other speak
ers in the East will be Mrs. Douglas
Robinson, sister of the late Colonel
Roosevelt, Miss Ruth Morgan. Mrs,
Nina Larre Duryea, Miss Elizabeth
Marbury and Miss Elsie DeWolfe.
Mrs. Aston was in charge Of the Y.
M. G. A. Naval Canteen at Brest for
many months. She took up this work
when her husband, an officer in the
U. s. Navy, went on patrol duty in
search OF submarines. Mrs. Roosevelt
is the wife Of Lieutenant-Colone
Roosevelt, who only recently returned
from France. She was in Paris last
summer when the Germans launched
their great offensive. Her husband
was wounded while leading his bat
talon in the successful efforts Of
American troops to stem the Hun tide.
Miss Morgan was also in Paris last
summer, where she was an official of
the American Red Cross, in charge OF
important relief work.
Many other women intend to lay
aside social and business RESPONSE
bilities for patriotic service as speak
ers during the Victory Loan drive.

COSTS MILLIONS
T0bR|NG OUR BOYS
BACK HOME AGAIN
IMMENSELY OF WORK OF TRANS
PORTING MEN FROM FRANCE
A VICTORY LOAN ITEM.
OF MAJOR EXPENSES
OF Those Who Are Coming Back 3,91s
Wear Distinguished Service
Crosses.

- The work and expense OF returning
the 2,O56,12 men who were sent to
France to fight the battle of demoC-
racy is one of the big expenditures
which the Victory Loan will meet.
However, that is only n of the ma
jor expenses.
In order to impress what funds are
needed in this work, 1t must be re.
membered that the men not only are
to be brought back, but they must be
provided for while in France awaiting
their turn must be fed, clothed, given
medical aid and kept in such condition
that they can take up their work
where they left off when they enlisted
in the fight for universal freedom
among the people of the world.
To contemplate the immensely of
the work Of transportation from
France to the United States, it is nee,
essary to reason inversely from the
transportation and expense of getting
them to Europe less, of course. the
danger which the troops ran of sub
marines on the trip r With all
of the work Of transportation, the
United States Government had started
352,922 men for the American shores
up to February 20, following the sign.
ing OF the armistice on November II.
Seventy per cent Of this number, or
245,6SS, we're carried in American
ships. But so far as expense of trans
,,nrfoffN, rr,pot hn- hanna h, xha
eminent irrespective Of whether the
men are brought back in ships flying
the American flag or the flag Of some
allied country. The expense is to be
met by the Victory Loan.
Naturally, the troops who had been
called into the service but had not
had an opportunity to be transported
abroad when the Germanic power col.
lapsed have been discharged in larger
numbers than It has been possible for
prepared by General March show that,
including those in the United States
as well as those returning from
abroad, a total Of 1924, 507 men and
77,452 officers have been discharged.
The orders for discharge have been
issued for 1,571, 600, of which 1898. 500
have been for troops within the United
States.
or those troops sent abroad it is Of
interest to realize that 3,91S have been
awarded Distinguished Service Crosses
for conspicuous g~allantry Are the
American people going to be just as
conspicuous for gallantry in their
treatment of these soldiers as the sol
diers themselves have been on the bat.
tletield for the. American peor'ef
The acid test of this question will
be shown in the way the American
people subscribe for the Victory Lean.
