which the two companies compete in
many sections of the city. Mr.. Ham said
that separate rates would have a ten
dency to take patrons from the lines
charging the higher fare and divert
them to the other lines. He said that
while there are times when the W. r.
& E. lines could carry more passengers,
the problem of moving ruSh-hour traffic
is not much different from a few
years ago.
Cites Former Decision.
He asked the commission what a
visitor arriving at Union Station would
think if he found two cars there run
ming to virtually the same point in the
business section but at different rates
of fare.
Mr.. Ham said the last word from
the commission on the subject was
in decision in former case in which
it was stated the commission would be
much more open to the charge of dis
elimination if it permitted different
rates for two lines traversing the same
territory than to keep the fare uniform

briefly by Ralph B. Fleharty, peoples
counsel, and by Mr.. Clayton. Mr.. File
harty called his attention to the sug-
gestion of the League Of the American
Civil Service that Government employees
and others refrain from using the cars
if the fare is increased and asked if
that would not have a considerable
effect.
Mr.. Ham said it has been his ex-
perience that such methods of protest
against change in rates are usually
of temporary duration
Mr.. Fleharty asked Mr. Ham if he
would be before the commission at this
time if the Capital Traction Co. lad
not applied for an increase. Mr.. Ham
replied he did not think he would be.
Earlier in the session Mr.. Ham teSti-
fed that separate rates of fare would
be discriminatory, prejudicial to his
company and contrary to public policy.

There was an insufficient amount of

said. and the bodies were to be left
