CITY OWNERSHIP

WASHINGTON, July 1~S.-Municipal
ownership of street railways and the
best and quickest way to convince the
public that 1t IL impracticable and UNI
Desirable was advocated yesterday be-
fore the federal electric railways com
mission by Mortimer II. Cooley, dean
or the college iof engineering of the
University of Michigan.
Theoretically, municipal ownership is
better In every way than any other
form Of management" Mr.. Cooley said,
but I believe 1t Is fruitless from u
practical point Of View"
DR.. Cooley said he believed it was
impossible to educate the public to the
needs of the street railways in time to
relieve the present stringency OF high
costs and low returns of which they
are complaining and which caused
mission to inquire into the situation.
Such education, DIR. Cooley said, would
require a generation.
Then we've got to rind some other
solution?" asked Commissioner Sweet,
the assistant secretary Of commerce. =,
Mr.. Cooley replied. Il recommend that
street railways be given the right to
charge fares that would permit them
to meet their operating expenses, keep
up their service, n maintain their
properties intact

should be at least 80 per cent higher
and even this, he declared, would only
be a palliative. He suggested removal
of some of the taxes now borne by
street railways and exemption from the
obligation to maintain the street paving
between the a tracks.
w. d. George, one of the receivers
for the Pittsburgh railway company,
advocated I'D optlcn CT a service at cost
plan" Although fares have been ad
vanced in Pittsburgh, he said, the com
Eany is not making money. He strong
ly opposed a zone fare system, declar-
ing that no city could afford to permit
such a system because Of its effect on
