CAR LINE OPPOSES
new BUS SERVICE
W. R. & L. Charges Unfair
Competition in Proposed
Additional Lines.

The Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company today protested to the
Public Utilities Commission against
the proposal of the Washington Rapid
Transit Company to operate two new
bus lines west from North Capitol
street and Rhode Island avenue.
Permission to operate these two
new routes was granted the bus COM
pany some months ago, but the lines
have not yet been put into service.
The street railway company asks
the commission to suspend its former
approval and to hold a public hear
ing to consider the question. Ihe
company bases its protest on the
ground that such bus lines would
constitute unfair competition with
the street car lines.
Text Of Protest.
The company's protest follows:
I'VE desire to enter our protest
against the proposed operation OF
buses by the Washington Rapid Tran
sit company along the following de-
scribed routes:
From Rhode Island avenue ana
North Capitol street west on Rhode
Island avenue to 18th street. south on
18th street to Pennsylvania avenue,
and then to sth street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue and return.
From Rhode Island avenue and
North Capitol street. west on Rhode
Island avenue to Scott Circle. then
over present 18th street route to 70
tomac Park and return.
I'VE think such proposed operation
would constitute unfair competition
in territory now adequately served
by street railway lines. and would
tend to increase the charges to the
general street car rider.
'It is. therefore, requested that
hearing be called and notice given
such as contemplated by the public
utility act to determine the necessity
for any such bus lines. and In the
meanwhile that any action hereto
fore taken by the commission rela-
tive thereto be suspended awaiting
such notice. public hearing and order
by the. commission passed pursIan:
to the said utility act"

CARSON FLAYs COALITION.
Irish Bill Passes Second Reading
in House of Lords. -. I
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
LONDON. March 17.-During the
debate yesterday on the Irish free
state bill in the house Of lords Lord
Carson bitterly attacked the coalition
government, declaring it had abolish
ed constitutional government and had
laid down the principle that by exec
utive action could be brought about
not merely constitutional changes
but revolution.
Lord Carson declared that, in ef-
feet, the government had told south
and west Ireland: You have, known
how to bring the British government
to it's knees. surely you can do the
same with Ulster" - =.
Lord Carson denounced the policy
of the government and the free state
bill in most uncompromising terms.
but admitted that the mischief had
been done and said he was not going
to argue that the lords ought to re-
ject the bill, but he hoped they would
not be so power1ess and feeble and
lacking in courage as not to insist
that they should never allow, with
out consent, one acre Of land to be
taken from Ulster.
After Lord Earson's speech the
house passed the, second reading Of
the bill without division.
