AVERESCU ACCEPTS
RUMAN|A REGENCY
Former Premier Publicly Pro-
claims Allegiance to Child
King and Bratiano.

BY the Associated Press.
BUCHAREST, Rumania, July &c
Rumanian political unity around the
child King Mihai was virtually
achieved when the former opposition
/ braced Premier Bratiano and recoG
nzed the authority of the regency last
night.
Averescu. who has been a bitter
opponent of Bratiano and hostile to
King Ferdinand. made his political
reconciliation all the more emphatic
by staging it in the presence of the
full Senate. The 800 members. know
ing full well the differences that eX-
listed between the two statesmen, were
amazed when they saw them embrace
sincerely and heard Gen. Averescu
proclaim his and his party's allegiance
to the King and Premier Rratiano
and their support of the regency.
Charges Elections Illegal.
Bratiano, who has been strongly op-
posed to the return to Rumania of
former Crown Prince Carol, succeeded
Averescu as premier in June.
Another sensation of last night s
Senate session was the demand OF
Julili MANU-. leader of the National
PeaSa nts party, for the immediate dis
solution of Parliament. Amid an up
roar from the Liberals he charged that
the post War governments and cleo
tions were dishonest and unconStltu-
tional.

0NE-MAN CAR WINS
FAVOR OF OFFICIALS
Commission May Authorize
Larger Use of Vehicles in
Washington.

The Public Utilities Commission has
| virtually decided to authorize Il more
| extensive use of the one man street
car in order TO avert demand 10y the
car companies for higher rate of
! fare. II was learned today at the Dis
! trict Euildirg.
! While the commission is not on
! peCtfd to announce it's formal policy
with respect to the one man car oper-
| atoms until Thursday, it is known
| that two of its members, who con
| stitute a majority, have tentatively
| reached A conclusion that only by the
| substitution of the tWo-man cars with
! the more economically operated one
man type will the car companies be
put in position to avoid carrying
out their threat to demand an in
creased fare.
The question now puHIilnE inc com
mission is how many additional one
| man cars tho companies should he
! aul horned to put into service. NJ
| Ioaat 10 probably will he approved at
| this time, although one member of
| the commission faNors an AUTHORIZE
tion for 50.
The companies will be directed, how
ever to purchaSe only cars of the lat
| est approVed type, similar to those
now in operation on the Wisconsin
avenue line of the Washington Rail
way Il Electric Go. Some of them are
expected to be used To replace Older
type Onc.man ears now in service,
while others will be used as substitutes
for tWn.man cars which Will be rele-
gated TO the scrap heap.
When the commission gives it's
formal Endorsement to more extern
Siva use of the One-man ear. it. will
reverse the policy of the former com
mission. which had put itself on record
rs opposed to the operation of any
! additional cars of this type In the
District. The new commission, how
ever. has given serious study to the
one-man car opera tons, not only in
Washington. but in other large cities
in the country, and has learned that
the one-man car has cut down operat-
ing expenses and at the same time
increased the patronage of the car
lines.
The new commission was confronted
with the one-man car question soon
after its organization by a request
from the AnacoStia Citizens ASSocia-
ton that the old type one-man cars
in operation on the AnaCostia line Of
the Washington Railway e Electric
Co. he replaced with those of the
latest type The commissions action
