all street railway companies formerly
comprised in the Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit system for the six months ended
December 81, 1920. In the column of
operating expenses and taxes, which
totals $22,o77,0ss, are included the ex-
penses of the strike in September and
October last. The strike cost the com
panies S2.425, ,9O2.
The deficit in operating income of
all the companies for the six months
is s2,237 $50, which suggests that had
the gtrike not occurred the railroad com

Borough President Henry II. Curran
did not go to Albany with the Hylan-
Johnson expedition for the traction bill
hearing. Mr.. Curran said that the re-
port of his intention to join the party
had been incorrect, his views on Gov
ernor Miller's traction message having
been expressed to the Governor in per-
son, and again in public address at
the Town Hall on February 2.
There is need for commission that
will give us something helpful and con-
structive," said President Curran, "and
to that extent I favor the bill But I
am convinced that the method pro-
posed in the Knight-Adler bill is
wrong. Nothing can Justify the taking
away from the people Of control over
their own property under contracts
that we're made in good faith and that
should be executed. The only excuse
for such an amazing proposal is the

IN the very nature Of the thing imros-

which provide for an investigation by
commission it is opposed to the
measures in their present form.
Its grant of naked power to a
way responsible to the city is contrary
to sound public policy and fraught with
danger to the community says the re-
port of the proposed legislation.
Objectionable Powers
Objectionable powers which the club
asserts would be granted are thus
summarized
at can fix value on all existing
rules or standards of value. 1t can
give such weight as 1t chooses to pres
ent excessive reproduction costs.
ut can take title for tho city to any
or all existing transit properties at
the valuation which it has fixed how
ever excessive such valuation may be.
1t can bind the city by operating con-
tracts LOT an lnQoUNlIp period.
by accepting title to the railroad
properties it can, and almost inevitably
would, waive the payment of franchise
taxes and other state taxes now
amounting to over seven millions Of
dollars per year. 1t can also release
the companies from their obligation to
maintain pavements between their
tracks.
"The salaries of the commissioners
themselves and of their secretary and
counsel will be paid by the state. As
to all other salaries and expenses the
commission can compel the Board of
Estimate from time to time to appro-
pirate forthwith and without revision
or reduction whatever sums Of money
the commission deems necessary.
Can Surrender Rights
at can take the place of the Board
of Estimate in making contracts for
the use of the city's streets by surface
railroads or by busses
ut can surrender any rights which
the city has under existing franchises
1t can modify the subway contracts in
any way to which the operating com
panies will agree, or cancel them slto-
gether and write new ones.
I'm the adoption Of plan for the
rehabilitation of the railroad lines and
the readiustment of transit contracts
If the Board of Estimate withholds its
approval, the commission can still exc
cute such contracts as it pleases on
behalf of the city.
ut can raise fares on any or all
transit lines without any maximum
limitation. 1t can DO this as a perma
nent policy through the adoption of It's
proposed comprehensive plan. Also
as the bill now stands, or even with the
latest amendment promised by the leg
lslatlve leaders, 1T can raise fares as a
temporary measure This can be done
at a comparatively early stage in the
proceedings in connection with what is
described as the adoption of its com.
prehenslve plan"
