card. The chances are ten to one,
drivers report, that the mailman
has not delivered the mail with his
card and he is then told to come
back the next day.
Wilful Delay
Hundreds of drivers complain
that hack inspectors have held up
their cards two and three days be-
fore mailing them downtown. One
driver, who had left his cab in front
of an office building on Park Row,
had his card picked up. He had
merely gone into the building to
wash his hands. When he came out
he noticed that his card was miss
ing. A private chauffeur told him
that a hack inspector had lifted"
the card. The taxi driver went to
the Ook st. police station, where he
was told by the captain in charge
to go to the hack license bureau.
It took this driver three days to get
his credentials back. This case is
typical.
Hack inspectors who take cards
in this way are guilty of larceny
and are liable to civil or criminal
prosecution. Many taxi drivers, it
is said, have paid graft to inspec-
tors for the return of their cards.
Same Story
Another driver stated that his
card had been taken from his cab
while he was inside a coffee pot on
Seventh Ave-, Harlem, and declared
that it was "just another scheme to
nulct graft from us drivers. If
meter seal should break on my
clock, and they break quite often,
it costs me just one buck But to
get my card back is more expensive.
If I only had pound 1857 | could
get my card back from that louise
(pointing to an inspector walking
in the next block) in thirty minutes.
It's just a case of graft, graft,
graft"
