Municipal operation OF the three
ferry lines formerly operated by the
Union Ferry Company-the Hamil-
ton avenue line. the Atlantic avenue
line and the Fulton street line-was
started yesterday under the direc-
ton OF Grover A. Whaien, Commits
sioner OF Plant and Structures. The
fare vas cut from seven TO five cents.
1t also developed yesterday that In
stead OF chartering the boats for the
ferry service the city had bought
them outright from the Union Ferry
Company for $35o,o0o. When nego-
tiations were started for the lines
nearly year ago the company de-
manded s1.500.oo for the nine boats,
which cost about ss30.000. The city
offered S350,000. but the company
rejected the offer. and the city be-
gan condemnation proceedings, which
finally resulted in municipal opera
ton. Experts OF the Department Of
Plant and Structures. after a careful
examination OF the properties OF the
company. insisted that there was no
reason why the city should pay more
than $350,000, and the company finally
came around TO this point OF view.

Rates Caused Protests.

Many complaints had been received
by Commissioner Whalen from persons
In Brooklyn and from commercial con-
Germs using the ferries for trucking their
goods that the rates had been increased
out OF proportion. These complaints
started the agitation that finally re-
quilted in municipal operation. Passen-
ger rates had been raised To seven cents
ard the fare for automobiles and trucks
almost doubled. Now the fare for pas
gengers Will be five cents and the rates

more in tax funds and incomes from

A vast portion OF the total OF S33.-
100000 went into gravel, stone and
other water-bound highways and for
construction and maintenance. To
date. the state highway system has
less than 900 miles of permanent,
hard surfaced roads. There are also
about $4,000 miles Of improved
county roads and only 1000 are hard
