neers employed by the State of New Jersey, at a
cost of approximately one hundred thousand dol
lars, after nearly years study of the problem.
1t is in excess of the amount fixed as the value in
the summer of 1921 by the then Board Of Public
Utility Commissioners which, under the law, was
obliged to find value after few weeks consid-
Grafton. Necessarily such consideration did not
admit of so complete an investigation as was made
either by the State engineers or by the Master of
the Federal Court. It is essential to adjust this
matter at this time because while the Federal suit
remains undetermined, the injunction stands and
the change in fare referred to in the next para
graph cannot be made.

with basic maximum of 60c per hour, this being
the last figure which the men agreed to accept and
is 10c per hour 20 per cent in of the pres

extra for one-man operated or bus. So far as
the labor situation will permit, no will be
required to work more than six days in any week.

/. Although the Railway Company has never had a
desire to embark largely in bus transportation,
nevertheless situation has developed that must
be met in broad way, if local transportation is
to survive therefore, the Railway Company,
acting through an allied corporation will purchase
at their present fair physical value all buses operat
ing compettivey on July 81, 1923 (the day before
the commencement of the strike), on the streets
where Railway Company's tracks are laid, whose
owners willing to sell. This present value to
be agreed upon if possible, between the Company
and the respective owners of the Buses If unable
to agree, value shall be fixed by Independent
appraisal. This will involve capital investment
Of several million dollars, the financing of which,
after much negotiation, has been provided for
conditioned upon the adoption of the plan
whole.
2. Thereafter the Companies will operate cars and
buses in coordination to the extent found neces
sary to accommodate the traffic and under the
supervision of the municipal authorities and of
the Board of Public Utility Commissioners. This
will end the wastefu and uneconom1c compet-
ton that has hitherto existed AS opportunity
offers, buses operated will be modernized and
standardized. Transfers will be instituted be-
tween buses and cars in the heretofore
existing on the lines of the Railway system. While
ample service will thus be provided, at the same
time much unnecessary traffic congestion will be
removed from the highways This, it may be said,
will create monopoly. This would only be so,
as to streets where railway tracks are laid. Such
service is a natural monopoly like the telephone,
water, gas and electricity. That such is the fact
is the for state supervision and control
The ignoring of this economic principle is the chief
cause of the present crisis

~ UBLIC SERVICE RAILWAY COMPANY,
mindful of the burdens that have been heaped
4 upon it during the past five years, reair1ns its
determination that it cannot contract to pay out
large sums of money for wages in of its
nues available for that purpose but conscious of its
obligations to the people of New jersey and desrous
of meeting the local transportation needs of that por-
ton Of the State served by it, offers the following
comprehensive plan, entirety for the settlement
of the very serious problem that confronts the
State If it were otherwise practicable nothing would
be gained by resumption of operation upon basis
Of destructive and uneconomc competition such has
latterly existed. 1t would only result in repetition
of the present unfortunate situation at later date.
In large community in the United States does any
such condition exist has been the in New jersey
has been ascertaned by hard experience the country
over that cars and buses cannot economically exist
in direct competition with each other upon the same
streets and wherever the issue has arisen the necessity
for railway transportation has manifested itself It
is possible to settle this whole problem and it should
be done once for all.
Palisadian., 1923-08-24
FARES

z. simultaneously with the effectuation of the plan
the Companies shall put into effect both on cars
and buses fare of seven cents, with one cent for
transfers This fare is lower by one cent for trans
fer charge than that fixed by the Board of Public
Utility Commissioners just and reasonable
fare in 1921 upon the low valuation found by the
Board and with a lower wage in effect than that
contemplated in this plan. This fare will stand
comparison with any company operating under at
all similar conditions and is less than the average
of present street railway fares in the country. It
may be decreased as and when the cost of service;
including fair return upon the value of the prop
erty devoted to the public use will admit Such
reduction could be accelerated by support of the
plan by the public, by the employees, by the re-
moval of unjust paving obligations now enforced
upon the Railway Company and by the reduction
of burdensome taxes
8. The Companies will give employment, either on
or buses, to all bus drivers who are qualified
and can pass the Railway Company's usual tests
of employment.
9. After the plan has become effective the Company
will take up with the Board of Public Utility Com
missioners the revampng of its financial structure
as to provide for future financing and to place
the company upon sound financial basis
1U. Service can De resumed temporarily at the rate
of fare in effect when the strike called, at the
wage scale, upon the Railway Company re-
ceivng definite assurances from the Board of Pub
lie Utility Commissioners and from the representa-
tives of the prominent municipalities that the
plan is acceptable and that they will cooperate
with the Railway Company in carrying it into
prompt execution. 1t is impossible for the Rail-
way Company to resume service at the rate of
wages demanded by the men and under the condi-
tions in other respects that prevailed prior to the
first of August.
Public Service Railway Company submits this plan
to the deliberate and intelligent consideration of the
Board of Public Utility Commissioners of the State Of
New jersey the authorities of the interested munich
palities and of all fair-minded people.

mits, shall be rescnded and cancelled, and the
licenses of bus owners who do mot desire to sell
shall either be rescinded, or the buses shall be
rerouted on streets where there are street rail
way tracks. The power of the Board Of Public
Utility Commissioners as contained In the Public
Utility Act as amended by the so-called Elliot
Act of 1921 is ample to accomplish the result
within very reasonable time, if the Board will
exercise it. The municipalities and the Board,
acting together, can accomplish the result when
ever they see 6t That it is the duty of the Board
to thus act is made clear by the opinion Of Judge
Katzenbach in the recent case in the New Jersey
Supreme Court of Arthur A. Hunter versus Board
of Public Utility Commissioners, where the Justice
in his opinion speaks as follows:
while temporarily the public might have greater
facilities of transportation in Woodbury. and from
Woodbury. to Camden by permitting the prosecutor
to compete with the Railway Company, in the end
such competition is not for the public convenience
and interest it either results in less efficient
ice by the Railway Company abandonment of it's
service because the operation of the line will not
pay operating expenses and fair return on the
capital invested. The State assumes to regulate
the rates for transportation and the character of
the service rendered Morally and legally it
should protect the business of the established
utility from impairment and encroachment. To
90 OtnerWlSe would soon create a SltuatOn Wnere
the public would be without transportation
ice. No capital could be obtained for enterprise
where security afforded the investor.
Without capital there would be no transportation
facilities which in this age indispensable to
the transaction of business and the enjoyment of
life"
Two cases in the State Of Illinois have recently
enunciated the same doctrine. They are Joseph
K Choate, Receiver, and others versus the Illinois
Commerce Commission and the West Suburban
Transportation Company versus the Chicago and
West Towns Railway Company.

after for operation on streets where Railway Com

WOOL PRICE
TO BE GOOD
Success in Sheep Raising Seer
By North DakOtan

Fargo, Oct. 17.-Wool growers of
North Dakota, who are marketing
their product through the state pool,
are assured of good prices as the
market is strong having risen In the
past three or four Week, it is report
ed by officials of the North Dakota
Federation Of Wool Growers assofia-
tons, meeting in Fargo today for
their annual conference to decide on
the disposition of this years clip.
The worlds surplus of wool, which
was so great a few years ago as to
smash the wool market to exceeding
ly low levels, has been practically
wiped out and prices of some grades
of wool are actually higher in Great
Britain than in America, it,. re-
ported. iiut
, This had lead to the unusual situa-
ton Of America exporting wool
which it had previously imported.
"These are the factors which are
giving us assurance that the values
of wool and sheep will be maintain
/ ed" said j. A. Power of Leonard
president Of the federation today.
"In my opinion no class of live
stock holds surer or safer future
than sheep. In
"Even should the world increase its
production under the stimulus of
high prices, the American tariff will
still act as protection and assure
US of a good price.
