GRANTING OF TAXI
RIGHT HELD LEGAL
Efficiency Bureau Upho|ds
Company in Union Station
Soliciting Case.

Belief that the Washington Ter
minal Co. has legal right in grant
ing the Black & White Taxicab Co
an exclusive privilege of soliciting
business at the Union Station was ex
pressed today by the Federal Bureau
Of Efficiency in a report to the Dis.
trict Commissioners.
The bureau made an exha austive in.
vestiga ton Of this question following
discussions on the floor Of the House
and i'll view OF a decision OF the
vOlving the railroad terminal in Chi
cago, the bureau said the arrange
ment between the taxicab company
and the Washington Terminal Co.
probably would be upheld by the
Interstate Commerce Commission
which holds that the terminal com.
pany is common carrier subject to
the interstate commerce act.
Despite it's attitude on the terminal
company case, the bureau has ques-
toned the legality of the arrangement
whereby exclusive parking conces-
sions are given certain taXicabs out
side of hotels and has recommended
to the Commissioners that public hack
stands be designated at different
points in the vicinity vi the hotels in
order 10 break up the practice. The
Commissioners. however, have not yet
acted ON this recommendation.
