The Washington Railway and Eiec-
trio Company carried a total of 107,-
609,94S passengers during the year, Of
whom 24,898,192 were carried on

passengers last year, as compared
with S5,4S1. .656 in 1921.
This was a falling off of 3.22 per
cent, compared with the preceding
year. Mr.. Ham says that while this
was a serious falling off, IL was to
be expected as a result of the gradual
ment employees in Washington.
Discussing its venture into the
motor bus business during 1922, the
president stated:
'"While we believe that busses can
not in any way supplant service by
street cars there Is, in bur opinion, a
considerable field Of usefulness for
the bus in conjunction with a street
car system" Mr.. Ham told the di-
rectors that fully 55 per cent of all
street car accidents are collisions
with automobiles, while less than 4
per cent of the years accidents in
vo1ve pedestrians The company con-
tinued its safety contest to make it's
trainmen more efficient in keeping
down accidents.
