Transit Commission Upheld


The committees judgment Of the
preliminary report of the Transit Com
mission is that the commission SIS en-
deavoring conscientiously to protect
the best interests of the people Of the
city, If the public hearings result in
the formation of better plan the
committee expresses confidence that
the commission will adopt it.
1t is suggested in the report that one
change in the tentative plan might be
as to the method of appraising the
lines and deciding which should be
admitted to the unified system
The Transit Commission" the COM
mittee says, "might welcome sugges-
tion from the city that these questions
be referred to a board representing
both the Board of Estimate of the
greater city and the Transit Commits
sion in some such way as is proposed
for the management of the new operat-
ing corporations. The proposed board
Of control might be given power be-
fore rather than only after the valua-
tions have been fixed and the system
organized"
Another suggestion was that the
commission Alay decide upon longer
period Of probation than year for the
