GUT FARE BILL

Al new scent fare bill for tire
Districts three transport companies
was introduced in the Senate yes
terday by Senator Caraway Of
Arkansas.
The bill provides that, II the trac-
ton companies decline to accept
scent fare. and grant UNIVERSAL
transfers, the District Commission
ers are authorized and directed to
giant franchises to motor bus
routes which run parallel to and
are in, direct competition with the
street railways.
Senator CaraWay believes that
this competition would rapidly bring
the street car companies to an
agreement with the Public Utilities
Commission to grant scent fare.
Senator Caraway also introduced
bill today abolishing the Board
Of District Commissioner and ap-
pointing city manager. with o.
salary Of $4,000 a year, as sub
stitute for the board. The city

over all local matters with the ex-
captiOn Of public utilities.
Both bills are referred to the
