BUILDING ROAD
Merchants Will Subscribe Fund tc
Pay Interest Charges.

Pensacola merchants are subscrib-
ing to a $500 fund which will be used
to pay interest charges on the money
required to build the Lillian Millview
road. The county will have the money
as soon as the likes are collected but
it is highly desirable that the road be
built at once and for that reason the
contractor, Roy Taylor, has been asked
to finance the road for six months, the
interest to be paid by a group of citi-
zens:
In line with this plan which has
been approved by the county board
and the good roads commission, the
merchants and ,thers have already
started their subscriptions Those
who have paid or promised to pay $40

NEW B|LLSA|ME
AT CAR SITUATION
Peoples Counsel Asked by
zihIman-CoIton Would
Divorce.

Two new bills for solving the street
; railway situation here have been intro
duced. Representative Frederick N.
zihlman OF Maryland. chairman of the
special subcommittee of the House Dis
trict committee. which has been holding
hearings on the traffic situation, has
drafted a measure providing for "peo-
pies counsel" to represent the public at
public utilities hearings.
Representative Don b. Cotton of Utah
yesterday introduced bill designed to
divorce the Washington Railway and
Electric Company from the, Potomac
Electric Fower Company and to place
the Washington Railway and Electric
tracks at the disposal Of the Capital
Traction Company.
Plan Gets Approval.
The plan of a peoples counsel, pro-
posed in the Zhlman bill. has been ap-
proved by several members OF the House
District committee. who feel that the in
terests of the public have not been
sufficiently safeguarded. Representative
Zihlman emphasized that it is manifestly
unfair that the people should be forced
to depend for their protection on the
public spirit of a few lawyers donating
their time without pay. while the public
utilities are represented by an array OF
well paid attorneys.
The bill introduced by Representative
Cotton would have the shares OF the
Potomac Electric Power Company now
held by the Washington Railway and
Electric Company distributed to the
shareholders of the latter corporation
proportionately. The tracks of the W.
r. and E. would be taken over by the
Capital Traction Company, under con-
demnation proceedings.
Would Extend Capital Traction.
The Cotton bill also provides for
specific extensions OF the Capital Trac-
ton Company lines through G street
from Union station to the Treasury:
on Wisconsin avenue from NJ street to
the District line: on Georgia avenue
to Walter Reed Hospital: through New
York avenue and North Capitol street
to Brookland: on 11th street southeast
from Pennsylvania avenue to Congress
Heights, and on 14th street south to
the bureau Of engraving and printing
and to the Department of Agriculture.
Representative Cotton contemPlates
that the street car fares can be re-
duced under his bill to four tickets
for Is cents and a single seven,eept fare.
and he would have it so writtensinto
the law. He would also require uni-
versal transfers. .-s
