AID. SCHWARTZ ON M. o. TRAC-
TON SETTLEMENT.

Discussing the question of munich
pal ownership of local transportation
lines through bankers certificates, AL
derman L. S. Schwartz pointed out
that the bankers approval of the GER
tificates plan of financing and the
legal opinions rendered by the law
yers for the committee have done
much 10 sweep away the objections
and doubts expressed by Samuel In
sull who stated before the committee
that he and Britton | Budd, president
of the elevated lines, were the only
persons who could speak for the Il"
roads
In speaking before the committee.
Mr.. insult said that it was largely a
question as to whether or not munich
pal ownership was desirable" said
Aid Schwartz. He took a broad view
of the question and pointed out the
fact that water works, canals and
docks had been built and operated
successfully by cities and that he was
not altogether certain municipal own
ership was bad.
He said, however, that he knew of
no way in. which it could be accom-
plished under existing legislation, and
indicated that if it could be done he
would not be averse to it. Now we
have the approval of the bankers, who
say that the plan is practicable, and
the approval of the lawyers, who say
it is legal"
Aid. Schwartz said the bankers, in
a sense, represented not only the sur
face lines. but the elevated roads as
well, and that Mr.. insult had interests
in the same surface lines company
in which F. O. WetmOre. president of
the First National bank. was a direc-
tor, and B. c. HaTdenbrOok of the
First National bank was one of the
committee of bankers who approved
the certificates proposed under the
Schwartz plan. Following this line of
logic Aid. Schwartz believes that the
greatest obstacles in the way of the
traction settlement have been over
come.
