Blacky the Crow and Sammy Jay had

they had been very busy talking things

were talking about, but he wasn't smart
enough to escape their sharp eyes and

to seek safety in hole in q tree where

called them names and scolded to his

Transit Issues
Legislators of the Five Bor.
oughs Meet Tuesday to
Map Out Program; Would
Extend Consideration
Higher Fares to Come Up
Members Will Be Urged Not
to Grant Increase Unless
Companies Show Loss,
From a stor Correspondent


ALBANY, Jan. ia meeting Of all
New York City members Of the Legis-
lature to consider traction problems
will be held here on Tuesday at the
close Of the legislative session, and an
effort will be made to organize the
delegation into working unit.
A call for the meeting was issued
to-day after a conference of Demo-
Gratis and Republicans of the boroughs
Of Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens and
Richmond. Members Of the Brooklyn
delegation, who have already organized
for similar purpose, have been in
vited to attend TUESDAYS conference
and to amalgamate with the members
from the other four boroughs.
Notices Of Tuesdays meeting were
sent out to all New York City mem
bers and were signed by Senator Ward
'. Tolbert, Republican, New York
County; Assemblyman Charles D. Don
ohue, Democratic minority leader, New
York County; Assemblyman Joseph
Steinberg, New York County; Assem-
blymsn George N Jesse, Republican.
New York; Senator George T. Taylor,
Thomas Cosgrove, Democrat, Rich-
mond; Assemblyman Peter LeininRer,
Democrat, Queens.
City-Wide Action Planned
The determination to form this or
ganization of New York City members
is prompted by desire on the part of
those representing the boroughs of
Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens and
Richmond that there should be city
wide consideration of the traction stu
alton in greater New York and not
merely OF the affairs of certain lines
of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
pany, as proposed by the commission
OF Brooklyn members formed last
tuesday and OF which Senator William
L. Simpson, Republican, is chairman.
Ii the proposed union of the New
York City delegation is effected and it
works as unit, it will mean that New
York City will have a block Of sixtv-
two Assemblymen. only fourteen short
Of majority, and twenty-five of the
Senators, which is but four less than
a majority.
One Of the objects of the suggested
union OF the New York City men is to
analyze all pending traction legislation.
Against Increased Fares
An effort will bu made to commit the
New York City men to a policy of no
Increased fares unless the traction
show conclusively that they
are losing money on a fve-cent fare,
and then only if the mpanes are
prepared to surrender to the city GER
tain features of the contracts under
which they are operating.
1t is thought possible that the jerks
increased fare bills will be introduced
in the Assembly next week. Assembly,
man jerks expects to have con-
ference with Governor Miller on these
measures before be presents them.
Governor Miller now is working on a
special message to the Legislature in
which he presents his views on the
traction situation. incidental to the re-
organization of the Public Service Com
mission. The message may be sent to
the Legislature next Monday morning.

6 More Supreme
CourtJ Justices
He Says Need for Judges
in Manhattan and Bronx
Is Emphasized by Clogged
Condition of Calendars
From a sto1 CORRESPONDENT

ALBANY, Jan. 19.-Senator William
Duggan, Republican, of New York, to-
day introduced bill providing for six
additional Supreme Court justices in
the LIST Judicial District, which en-
braces Manhattan and the Bronx. SEN
etor Duggan said that under the con-
stitution the 1st District is entitled
to one justice for each 10000 in
habitants.
"The& is more litigation in proper
tion to population in this district than
in the Others" said Senator Duggan,
"and it entails on the average more
time and work than in the other dis
tricts. We have always been behind
with our calendars. In consequence, we
have to bring justices elected in other
districts to hep dispose of the great
volume of work clogging our iudlclal
machinery. We have had three upstate
justices on our Appellate Division
bench almost the entire time, and we
generally have one or more justices
from other districts he ping to dispose
Of the accumulated work
ITO these Appellate Division justices
we pay $500 year in addition to the
$4,000 they receive from the state, and
of the latter sum our taxpayers pay
the lions share also.
Thus, we are paying practically all
the salaries of these outside justices
to fill the places on the bench which by
