SUIT FILED AGAINST
GOTHAM CAR LINES
ASKS RECEIVERSHIP
CBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Aug. 30-Announce-
ment of a program by which the Inter
borough Rapid Transit company hopes
to stave off receivership demanded in
two court actions was expected today
following the regular meeting of the
company's board of directors.
Solvency of the marlborough which
operates most of New York's subway
and elevated lines was challenged first
on Saturday in a receivership proceed
ing brought by the American Brake
Shoe Company, a S57,074.90 creditor.
Clarence H. Venner, president of the
Continental Securities company, which
holds Interborough securities followed
yesterday with a suit which demanded
not only receivership but enforcement
from the interborough of the Manhat
tan Railway company, the subsidiary
company operating the elevated lines
and appointment of receiver for that
line also.
Charge High Rate Plot.
| Politics entered into the situation
with a charge by Mayor Hylan tina:
the receivership had been brought
about by traction interests" as part
of plan to force higher fares. Both
fusion opponent, Henry H. Curran
have five cent fare planks in theil
| platforms.
| The fact that a S38, 100000 issue OIL
seven per cent Interborough notes
| falls due on Thursday, is said to have
been one of the factors precipitatins
the receivership proceedings at thi:
time. Frank Hadley, president of the
company, was expected to report Il
| the directors today on steps taken t
| obtain an extension of these notes a
S per cent.
New notes have been deposited witt
J. P. Morgan & Co., and are being o,
fered to present holders of the 7 pc
! cent paper. About half of the not
holders are reported to have agreed Il
the extension. New notes also wer'
/ listed yesterday on the New Yorl
stock exchange, and officials of th'
company are optimistic that they vii
! find ready acceptance.
