No Secrets. Say. Hediey.

Mr.. Hedley's discussion Of the transit
situation took place at the first confer
ence ne has held with newspaper men
since assuming the duties OF president of
the Interborough az result OF the
death of Theodore p. Shonts.
'I want to say to you now." he be-
gan, "that we have no secrets and Will
! not have any under my administration.
Y don't want It said that reporters can't
see me- I'm not a damned bit different
now than I was when l was a switch
{ man. I'm Just the same kind OF rab-
bit l may not know all the things you
I ask me about. but I'll find out for you.
/ The system is owned by private indi-
Z viduals and the city, and / don't see why
the city isn't entitled to Just as much in
= formation as the private owners.
"Our first object Is to render a salts
factory, adequate and safe service to
our customers. the people OF New York.
!, They should be willing to pay sufficient
fare to equal the cost of the service rem
.dered, including a reasonable return on
the capital invested, both by private in
Z dividuals and the city. The people
should see to II themselves that they
are required by the proper officials TO
pay an adequate return.
"If the transit system is operated at
less than cost. 1t can't be expanded or
developed or be maintained at the high
standard II Ia to-day. The reason you
2 have the efficiently operated subway and
elevated you have now Is because have
had enough money to bring the roads up
20 their present standard. The subway
Is recognized all over the world as hav-
ing the highest speed. as being the safest
and most densely occupied by car mile
age OF any railroad on earth. This is
q due to our having had money TO work
with. We can't continue to spend It and
maintain service II We don't have It.
Instead/of hammering the transit system
the people OF New York should be brag-
= ging about having the best>in the world

- II figure that about SOC. 900 persons
,who don't live in New York at all use
