City to Fight
&c Fare on
Staten Island
CONTINUED from page su,)

city administration have enough to
contend with to keep the traction in
terests from the backs of the people
without being forced to go to court, as
we have been compelled to do in the past,
to make Commissioner Nixon Ga public
servant who is on the payroll of the
people to the extent of $4,000 u year,
do his duty.
"The investigation of the traction
lines showing how the investing public
and the cityehave been mulcted to the
extent of millions of dollars, the crowd
ing of human being in. cars of the
tractin lines in most disgraceful man
ner, along with the decision Of the
courts that Commissioner Nixon has no
power to raise fares, would seem to be
sufficlent to force a public official to
comply with the law and show some
little regard for. the rights of the peo-
pie.
Proceed Immediately to stay the or
der of Commissioner Nixon, to whom
even the courts seem unable to point
out his duty"
Mr.. Whalen issued a statement in
which he alleged that the cight-cent
fare was not necessary to meet the
wage increases. He said "Mr. Nixon's
gift" will net the company $16O,Oo0 a
year.
"Mr. Nixon has allowed a 60 per cent
increase in fares to be levied against
the public in order to permit a 33 g
per cent increase in wages" said Mr..
Wha'en.
'1f these lines carry as many pas
sengers Is las. -. S.,--, al
if the passengers buy strip tickets at
twenty for S1.50, the increased revenue
OF the company will be $24O,O0O The
increased pay allowed to the men will
amount to only 100000, so the face
value to the company of Mr.. Nixon's
gift is 100000 per annum.
People Turn to Buses
"This runs on the theory that the
people will pay the extra fare. How
ever, this morning the people rode
in busses and the trolley cars were
empty or only half filled. In many
cases passengers who had entered the
trolley cars unawares left the cars
and took the busses when they learned
of the extortion."
Mr.. OBrien pointed out that court
decisions heretofore were not pub
lie service commissioner had no power
to regulate fares. He cited the Quimby
case in Rochester, in which the Court
of Appeals denied the ission's S
right to increase fares.

ducts himself as the present incumbent
does is more of a menace to the safety
of our American institutions than anv
OF these aliens he is trying to deport."
Speaking of the bomb attack of June.

most charitable explanation which
couid pe placed upon his activities

seas with the deported Reds, criticized
issuing alarming propaganda. and said

such methods while he is in office. as

with pride"
- Mr.. Brooks said the motto of the
department of Justice with regard to
the, Red activities seemed to be. "Thc
end justifies the means"
