IN PHILADELPHIA

The Pennsylvania Public Service
Commission has concluded the rate
case of the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit Company and has contin-
ued the seven cent base fare which
it allowed in 1921. The Public
Ledger, one of the city's
Leading Newspapers
welcome the decision because ut
insures the Rapid Transit Com
pany an income that will
sustain its credit and enable it to
carry out the many and ambitious
plans for the extension of service
to the public
Evidence Shows
the Ledger further declares, that
measured by the purchasing value
of the dollar today, a fare of 1877
cents would be necessary in order
to equal the purchasing power OF
five cents in 1913"
First Consideration
in determining reasonable rates
is, says the Pennsylvania Commits
sion, 'the paramount public need
of increasing and improving Serv-
ice."
Philadelphia Protects
it's street cars system from waste

earn an adequate return.
