PUBLIC WILL DECIDE
TRANSIT PROBLEMS
Commission to Submit Its
Data to People on Routes
and Fares.
WILL FIX VALUATIONS
Suggestions From All Sources
Will Be Acted Upon in
Forming Decisions.
WILL FIX VALUATIONS

The Transit Commission. which has
been engaged in a comprehensive survey
of the passenger carrying properties. will
be ready within the next few weeks to
begin the consideration Of principles
upon which the transit lines OF the city
will be reorganized, 1t was learned yes
terday. Those principles and the appli-
cation OF them to the transit situation
will determine what fare will be neces-
sary to give the city the service it needs.
Despite the cry of the Hylan admin
istration that the new commission was
created with the idea already fixed that
an eight cent fare should be imposed
upon the city there is reason to believe
that the Transit Commission does not
know yet whether 1t will be necessary to
increase the fare. One thing. 1t Is un-
derstood, the commission is certain of,
and that is the ending of the sham of
preserving a five cent fare by charging
two or three five cent fares on what
was formerly a single ride.
Before the Transit Commission makes
a decision all its Information will be
placed at the disposal of the people, who
will be invited to help decide on what
principles shall be adopted for the solu-
ton of the problem or. in other words,
the commission at public hearings Will
ask for advice and suggestions whereby
the city can have the best possible SER
vice at the lowest possible cost.
Opportunity OF the public to have a
say concerning what rates OF fare 1t
shall pay not only is contrary to the
political propaganda Of the Hyianists
that an Increased fare would be saddled
on the car riders whether they liked 1t
or not, but even the ideas and advice
of Mayor Hylan and his official and
political family regarding solving the
transit problem, 1t is understood, will
be received by the Transit Commission
il the Hylan administration can advance
a constructive suggestion.
Commission Digs Up Data.
The commission has been engaged so
far in assembling and interpreting data
concerning the subway, elevated and
surface lines.
Archives of the former Transit Con-
struction Commission provided some in
formation along that line. but 1t is said
the staff Of the new commission has had
to start at the bottom and dig up virtu-
ally all the data needed. In addition to
that the simplification OF the methods
of the old commission has required
time and effort-the elimination of a
system which cost $4,000, for instance,
to dispose of a S1.400 item. Savings
have been effected in that manner and
the salaries expense has been reduced.
1t is upon the assembling of the basic
information, however, that the COM
missions staff is concentrating mainly,

ton will be vital element in final de-

SEES NO OPPOSITION
TOPONTOON BRIDGE
Senator Frelinghuysen Says
Congress Will Approve Prof.
ect for Hudson River.

Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen OF
New Jersey believes that Congress is
certain to approve HIS project for MAX
ing use of the undesirable wooden ships
now tied up in several harbors by using
them as the support of pontoon bridge
across the Hudson from the neighbor-
hood OF YonlSers to the neighborhood of
Alpine.
''The President favors the idea, the
Secretary Of War believes It is feasible
and Chairman Lasl5er OF the Shipping
Board is willing to cooperate" Senator
F'relinghuysen said. "There Is really no
important opposition that 1 know Of
Some may develop from towing COM
panies that want to monopoiize the
river. but their rights are properly safe
guarded under the bill I introduced yes
terday.
Gustav LindenthaI, the celebrated
engineer, has worked out plans for the
proposed pontoon. He assures us that It
is perfectly sound and simple propo-
sition from the engineering standpoint
The bridge can be constructed within
year if necessary, and there is every
reason for haste. Motor traffic 10 the
Palisades Interstate Park and TO other
points is so heavy on Saturdays. Sun
days and holidays that the ferries cam
not begin to take care of 1t.
1--WE are asking Congress to grant
charter for ten years and as a tempo

would begin construction at once. The
Job must be finished within two years
or the charter lapses. 1t will take five
or six years to finish the vehicular tun-
mel and anywhere from ten to twenty
years to get the bridge from F'ifty-sev-
enth street Manhattan, over to Jersey
We can't wait that long. and the only
solution Of the problem is to take over
the useless wooden ships that never
should have been built and use them in
pontoon construction"

office OF the Shipping Board i shall be
surprised If any demand develops for

dubious about them and see no profit
IN handling them. Apparently they are
pretty much a total loss.
with our Hudson River pontoon
bridge scheme they would be put to ex-
cellent use. 1 have told Chairman Las
ker OF the Shipping Board that We did
not ask for any more consideration than
would be granted to other possible pur-
chasers. We stand ready TO pay a fair
price. BY the first OF next week we
shall know more about Our chances In
this line.
1.-THE main details Of our plan as out
lined by Mr.. Lindenthal are TO stretch
these wooden ships to the number of
fifty or sixty right across the river at
a point near Yonkers. The ships would
point upstream and would be anchored
as solidly as IL they were set upon
pilings. They will be placed about 100
feet apart and upon them will be built
a double roadway. each traffic lane ten
feet wide. On the outside OF these two
roadways will be sidewalks for foot pas
sengers. The whole construction will be
as safe as the Brooklyn Bridge.
The need for this bridge is obvious.
1 have many photographs illustrating
the congestion at the ferries of automo-
bile traffic. The Interstate Park people
are keenly interested because the con-
gestion affects them disagreeably."
There was report in shipping circles
yesterday that no bids whatever have
been received by the Shipping Board in
response TO the boards invitation to
prospective purchasers OF wooden ships.

They and their three young sons have
always been well liked in the southern
Oregon city. Brumfield was a graduate
of the University Of Indiana. While Mrs.
Brumfield grieves for the life that was
in the body buried at Roseburg the Sher-
ifs men are following every clue that
may lead to the arrest of the dentist in
life.
The day fc.iowing the crime blood
marks were discovered at Russelis
home. There was also a hat bearing
blood stains and bullet holes. 1t now
seems evident that Russell was shot
there and that, In addition to the bullets
that entered the back, other shots
punctured his hat.
The contents Of the victims stomach
also were examined. They showed that
soon before his death he had partaien
OF a heavy meal OF meat and potatoes.
So far as It can be ascertained Brum-
field had eaten only small quantity OF
ice cream.
Another development was a report
from Portland that Brumfleld had been
seen there by w. +. Waldorf, a garage
man. Waldorf said that the dentist was
in company with man in soldiers uni
form and that the two inquired the way
to Hood River. The men were travel
was exceedingly nervous.
While the report Is being followed up
the authorities are not inclined to attach
too much Importance to 1t. Waldorf does
not know Brumfield, but identified hin,
from a newspaper picture. 1t is real
lied, too. that in such case mistaken
reports of Identification frequently arise
Both men were anxious that they
should meet no delay on the road, Wal
dorf said. Waldorf did not pay close at
tention to the car, he said. 1t was o
small machine, but he did not notice
either the make or number.
The hour at which Waldorf saw the
suspects was about eighteen hours after
the time the Roseburg murder occurred
An automobile could have covered the
distance from the Southern Oregon city
to Portland in that time without great
trouble.
There are still many puzzling circum-
stances about the Identification OF the
murder victim. 1t was learned tina!

fracture of one OF his forearms. but the
examination of the body failed to dis
close any evidence of the bones in either
arm ever having been broken, although

termination of the transit question. It
is understood that the commission is
well satisfied with the progress made
upon that stupendous undertaking and
that the work will be sufficiently adj
vanced within a few weeks to begin
analysis and discussion of basic prin-
ciples. There is every reason to be-
lieve that those principles have not yet
been determined. and will not be, with
out the confidence and aid of the public.
That done. there will come the ques-
ton OF applying those principles to the
situation. In that also. 1t is under
stood. the commission purposes to act
only with the full knowledge of the
public and in the light OF suggestions
from any and all sources.
While arriving at a scientific basis for
the main purpose for which 1t was Gre
ated-that of reorganizing the transit
systems and providing the city with
service--the Transit Commission has
been able to push along new work and
such as was under way by the former
Transit Construction Commission.
Hampered by HyInn Crowd.
Work of the commission has been
hafnpered by constant drumfire of lit
igation by Mayor Hylan, although the
commission won as fast as the various
cases could be brought to a decision
The work OF the commission has beer
hampered also by the refusal of Mayor
Hylan and the Board Of Estimate to
make appropriations.
Not only has that financial pressure
brought by the Hylan regime to bear
upon the commission gone so far as to
affect the salaries of the commission's
employees, but to-day the commission is
proceeding with subway construction
and Improvement as best 1t can in facs
Of the fact that the Board of Estimate
Is holding up S1,170,000 of appropria.
tions necessary for that work. The
result Of that policy. as was pointed OUT
yesterday, Is not merely to embarrass
the commission. which is the Hylan pur-
pose, but falls ultimately upon the rush
hour jams on every subway train that
runs. That is shown by the efforts ot
the commission to rush to completion a
permanent shuttle service between Times
square and the Grand Central the exten-
sion of the Greensboro subway to Eighth
avenue and the construction of the Mas.
sau street link connecting the Centre
street loop with the Montague street tun-
mel. all of which would help relieve con-
gestion. The commission has just made
a new demand upon the Board OF Esti-
mate for the money due, but the board
has not indicated whether the commits
sion will again have to resort to the
courts.
