BILL IN LEGISLATURE WILL
PROPOSE NEW COMMISSION TO
SOLVE TRACTION FARE QUESTION
Measure To Be introduced Tonight viii Provide for Inquiry
by Lawmakers and Citizens Into Conditions
Throughout the State

In any event its Jurisdiction does not ex-
tend beyond the city.
"As in the last analysis the Legislature
will be called upon TO formulate remedial
legislation, it seems to me the Legislature
should act. / have. therefore, proposed the
creation OF mixed legislative commits
sion. A legislative commission Is very
different thing from legislative commit
tee. AS proposed in the measure which
shall introduce IL will consist OF three
Senators. three Assemblymen, two citizens
to be appointed by the Governor, two to be
appointed by the Speaker of the Assembly
and two by the temporary President of the
Senate. This will give opportunity for
the inclusion on the commission of repre-
sentative and experienced citizens who
will bring to the commission a standing
that it might not otherwise have. 1t also.
will provide through the inclusion of men,
bers of the Legislature distinct point
of contact with the Legislature, which
must finally act on any proposals sub
mitted.
I'm any event Immediate action is neces-
sary. There is little promise of that in
any of the inquiries now under way Such
a commission as l propose can report In
time to have its communications acted on
by the present legislature"
