North Shore Line
Proves s Physical !:
Inability to Run
Public Service Commission
Convinced Trolley Co.
Can't Operate Because of
Storm and Lack of Funds

Service on the New York and North
Shore Traction Company's lines was
suspended because the tracks are
stormbound, General Manager John
G. Moran told the Public Service Com
mission at hearing yesterday. Mr..
Moran added that the company had
only about 500 in its treasury, and he
offered again to turn the lines over to
the city on any reasonable basis.
There is no Immediate prospect of
the service being resumed and no
busses will operate between Flushing,
Bayside and Whitestone until the end
Of the week. The decision on the bus
lines was announced by Deputy Com
missioner Mills Of the Department of
Plant and Structures, after an inspec-
tion Of the route. Broadway Flush
ing, Mills said. is in such condition
that it will be impossible to operate
the busses until the snow and ice have
been removed.
Residents Of Whitestone, Bayside,
Douglaston and Little Neck, who for
merly used the trolley line rode on the
Long Island Railroad yesterday. The
railroad company is in about 500 pas
sengers because Of the trolley COM
pany's suspension.
John A. McCullum, chief Of the
Board Of Estimates Bureau Of Fran
chises, who had opposed the hearing
before the Public Service Commission,
withdrew his opposition when he
New-York tribune., 1920-03-03

learned that the reason for the sus.
pension was the blocking Of the COM
pany's tracks by the frequent storms,
much ado abort nothing" Mr.. Nc
Cullum called il, when the situation
WAS explained.
Deputy Public Service Commissioner
Alfred M. Barrett heard the case ahd
declared that the company was pre-
vented from operating only by IAN
act Of Providence"
ut is physical impossibility for
them to continue" Barrett said. "If
the lines in New York City had made
half the effort that this company has
made they would have been operating
long before they werc."
General Manager Moran said that
one section of the line had been
opened four times, but that each time
q thaw and subsequent freeze-up had
stopped operation. If the cooperation
OF the city officials could be secured
to clear the streets Of snow and ice
the company would resume, he prom
ised.
It would cost between $4,000 and
100000 to open up the thirty-eiRht
miles OF track which the company op-
crates, Mr.. Moran said, and he de-
clared that the company was unable
to make this expenditure because of
its financial condition.
Deputy Commissioner Barrett finally
the hearing, subject to the
call Of the commission. "If the serv-
ice is not resumed when the commits
sion thinks conditions permit we will
resume the hearing" he said.

Smith Asks $4,000 to
Continue Labor Board
Flexible Board of Mediation Is
Needed During Present Critical
Period. Saws Governor

ALBANY, March "a request for an
appropriation of $4,000 for the con-
tinuation of the Governors Labor
Board was contained in message from
Governor Smith to the Legislature to-
day. The need of flexible board of
mediation, representative of EMPLOYERS,
workers and the public, serving volun-
tarily and able to function in the
various parts Of the state, was pointed
out.
After reviewing the history of the
labor board, created as the result of a
conference on industrial problems called
by the Executive last August, Governor
Smith wrote:
During the present disturbed con-
dition, and until our people find them
selves. consider it essential to be able
to continue the work of this board and
to utilize by adding to its personnel
as special members from time to time
local representatives Of the industries
involved. For this l have asked the
mayors of cities to supply me with
names of citizens willing to act in such
capacity.
"The board has functioned in num-
Der of industrial crises and has been Of
great service in. preventing or mediat-
ing. strikes in various industrial fields,
including railway express workers, pic
ture frame workers, certain of the
needle trades, and has just successfully
arbitrated differences which arose in
the shirtmaking industry of New
York"
A bill designed to carry out the Gov
ernor's recommendations was intro
duced to-day in the Senate and Assem-
bly.
