STEPHENS UPHOLDS
UNIVERSAL FARES
Ruling Removes Likelihood Of
Cut on Capital Trac-
ton Lines.

Reduction Of fares on the lines of
the Capital Traction is improbable
as the result of an opinion of Cor.
poration Counsel Stephens handed
to the Public Utilities Commission
yesterday, advising that the law
does not require reduction even
though 1t Is making more money
than the Washington Railway and
Electric Company.
The opinion of the corporation
counsel Is in reply to the Fedora.
ton Of Citizens Associations, which
petitioned the Public Utilities Com.
mission for a reduction in fares,
taking the view that the commits.
sion was acting without authority
in maintaining the same fare for
both companies when the rate gave
the Capital Traction a larger return
than the Washington Railway and
Electric Company.
An order from the Public Utilities
Commission will probably be issued
early this week, upholding the opin.
ion Of the corporation counsel and
consequently reject the petition OF
the federation.
The corporation counsel told the
that in his opinion IL
would be liable to a charge of dis.
elimination If it fixed different rates
for each company, even though the
Single rate gives one road greater
return than the other.
There is no point Of law involved
in the question OF a Uniform rate OF
fare for both companies, Mr.. Steph'
ems holds. The companies. he ex
plains, should decide the case by the
exercise Of judgment and discretion
as to whether single rate Of fare
would be more in the public Interest
than separate rates.
