WANTS HIGHER RATES

The publication yesterday in the
Gazette of a schedule of rates which
the Washington-Virginia Railway
Company will urge the Interstate
Commerce Commission to approve
was as bombshell to thousands OF
Alexandrians and equally as many
Washingtonians. The purpose OF
teh company is to virtually double
the fare between the two ci.-es. In
stead of paying as we do now %
cents for round-trip ticket between
this city and Washington, the rate,
should the Interstate Commerce
Commission look approvingly on the
scheme, be increased to 25 cents
each way OF 40 cents for round
trip ticket.
A short time ago Alexandria went
fer wool and returned shorn when
movement was launched IN the City
Council for the purpose of obtain
ing lower water rents in this city.
Instead of obtaining relief IN this
matter our water rents were mater
iallv increased, thanks to the State
Corporation Commission. For years
many people in this community
have protested against paying 20
cents for rourd-trip ticket to
Washington. and meetings have been
held with the view of having the
fare reduced.
The Observation-Disclosures company
has for i long time been taxed to it's
fullest capacity in transporting the
thousands of passengers who, at
present, have no other mode OF MAX
inc the trip between the two cities.
The advent Of the Virginia Ship
building Corporation has increased
the number of passengers enormous
". and trains pass through the city
especially at early morn and at the
close of the day packed with human
10y, as much so as Fourth Avenue,
New York; cars during early morn
ing and evening.
Should sthe railway Company be
allowed to increase it's rates there IS
every reason to believe a ferry boat
will be put on the route between
Alexandria and Washington. 1t has
already been suggested that the
boats could make two landings IN
Washington-one at the old Seventh
street slip for the benefit of navy
yard employees, and another farther
west in order to accommodate the
many A,exandrians employed at the
Agricultural Department, the Blu
reau. Of Engraving and Printing, the
Southern Railway building, and
many other nearby places.

II 1t were no more than just to see
the Mack Sonnet bathing beauties the
show at the Grand tonight ought to be
worth while. The reputation of these
frolicsome merrymaids has been vel!
spread by newspaper, magazine and

their names, most Of us will be able to
point out the little lady Immediately
that we have admired so much as we
have seen the likenesses of these be-
witching girls. And further than this
the five reel story, Yankee Doodle In

ntest movies touching on the war, and
also the most merry product OF the
Sennett studios. OF course 1t is built
on the burlesque idea to a great ex-
tent, which is greater indication OF the
fun making possibilities of the picture.
It ought to be suitable tonic for the
night after, and we believe will make
enjoyable entertainment.
