81 PASS DOOM
CERTAIN AS
ROW BREWS
Utilities Body Unable
To Prevent Death
OF Weekly Ticket

Although powerless to prevent
abolition of the 81 weekly street
car pass, the Public Utilities Com.
mission today was girding itself
for a further assault by the
Capital Transit Company to OBJ
tain increased fares.
The company has pending a
petition to raise its fare to a
straight 10-cent cash and three
tokens for 25-cents tariff. Mem.
bers Of the Commission announced
that before the fare increase petit
ton is considered at a hearing
next month, it will be preceded by
an inquiry into valuation of the
company properties.
In addition to the cash and
token fare increases the company
also requested universal SIPS
weekly pass, but this will not be
pressed because of the action
taken by the company late yes
terday when it notified the com.
mission it intends to abolish the
weekly 81 pass on January 3.
SIPS Pass Retained
E. D. Merrill, vice president and
general manager of the company,
told the commission that the $1.25
weekly pass will be retained AMI
will be good for rides on all street
cars and on all buses where the
fare is not more than 10 cents.
Members of the commission ex-
planned their impotency today in
preventing the abolition of the 81
weekly pass. Although suggested
by the commission, this weekly
rate was voluntarily" put in eff
feet by the company. AS the re-
suit of a court decision in 1890,
permitting the company a raise in
car fares, the commission was ren-
dered powerleSS to act in cases
where rates we're lower than al
thorized by the court.
In the notification to the COM
mission of the 81 pass abolition,
Merrill recited that the venture
undertaken three years ago was
experimental. He also said that
the average rate of fare per reve-
nue. passenger had declined from
79 to 6 cents, approximately, dur.
ing the three years the 81 wee..ly
pass has been in effect.
Reports on Sales
Merrill reported that for the
week ending November IA there
were 74,859 weekly 81 passes sold
and 11,725 passes at SIPS, com.
pared with 69,411 at ST and 1851
at $1.25 sold during the same
period last year.
Following on the heels of the
company'S successful move to ex-
pand its one-man car system and
the request for increased fares, the
commission expects that the
abolition of the 81 pass will see
falling off in the patronage of
the car lines.
The commission suggested the
weekly pass system to the com.
pany three years ago when cheap
taxi service had made deep in
roads in its patronage, as a
method Of winning back paSSen-
gers.

Needy Families Plead
For Aid; Children
To Suffer Most

By THE GOOD FELLOW EDITOR
Unless many charitable-minded
Washingtonians assist, Christmas
will be full of disappointment this
year for many broken-hearted
fathers and mothers who cannot
afford a real Christmas for their
children.
There will be many children's
hearts filled with the bittereSt of
despair Christmas morning when
they find that Santa has forgot
ten them. 1t is a question of who
suffers the most on forlorn Christ
mas mornings, the helpless little
children or their heartsick parents.
JOIN The washington Times an
nnal Christmas Good Fellow cam
paign. Be a Good Fellow. You
will make your goal a happy
Christmas for at least one child
or family in the District.
Here's How to Help
Here is the way to be a Good
Fellow:
The Washington Times will
furnish the names of as many
persons or families, adults or chill
dren, as you wish. If you want
to help, notify the Good Fellow
Editor as early as possible so that
you will have plenty of time to
visit the family yourself and de
termine just what they need for
Christmas.
We prefer to have the Good
Fellows buy and deliver their own
gifts to the families they choose
to help.
A toyless Christmas will break
many child's heart. Good Eel
lows can help to make sure that
Washington unfortunate chill
dren do not suffer this diSap-
pointment.
Many Clubs Subscribe
In past years many groups of
workers in Government offices
and private businesses have taken
families from our list and held
Christmas parties to gather food,
toys and clothes for them.
Thus far, several groups have
again promised to assist needy
families and we hope many more
groups will do likewise. Several
clubs and sororitieS have also
promised to care for families at
Christmas time.
Six hungry mouths to feed on
q few dollars a week is a hard job,
indeed. It is such struggle that
an anxious mother writes asking
us to tell some Good Fellow about
her children so that they will have
something on Christmas.
Even Old Toys Do
Her letter reads in part:
even old toys would be ap-
preciated and enjoyed by my
dear little children. With rent

Interesting Meeting Wednesday

Mrs. Rom announced that mem
bers of the PIT. A. Council were
asked to attend a meeting at the
Harris School on September %.
Mrs. Henr;quez, president OF
the High School PIT. A. had also
asked that an announcement be
made of the change of the meeting
place of the PIT. A. Council from
the High School to the Harris
School. This was also announced
as requested.
1t was stated that the enroll
ment of the Harris School showed
an increase of 80 pupils more than
when school closed in June. The
announcement seemed odd, as
many families had moved away
since the termination of last years
term in June.
Mrs. Cabrera, president of the
PIT. A. Council, was in attend
ance and she announced that there
would be a state convention held
in Jacksonville sometime during
the early part of October. Plans
for sending a delegate to this
convention were made, although
not completed.
Mrs. James Singleton was ap-
pointed as chairman of the Room
Mothers for the term and then the
appointment of Room Mothers fol-
/: lowed.
The roll call revealed that Miss
Mary Pinder and Mrs. Charlotte
Haskins won the attendance per-
centage banners. The banners for
the most parents present were
won by Mrs. Mavereen Meadow
and Mrs. Thelma Watkins.

The first meeting of the Harris
Grammar School PIT. A. for the
1867 term was held Wednes-
day, September 16.
A large number of parents and
teachers attended the opening
session of the new school year.
After the singing of America -
and the repeating in unison of the
Lords Prayer, the president of the

troduced Reverend Joe Tolle OF
the First Methodist Church, who
gave an inspiring talk. The theme
was Understanding" The task
Of the teacher and the parents is
to make worthwhile citizens OF
boys and girls, Rev. Tolle said.
1t will take the cooperation OF
both teachers and parents to ac-
complish this end, he stated. The
parent must understand the many
obstacles which confront the
teacher in her task and the teach
er in turn should understand some
of the parents, he also said.
Mrs. w. P. Archer read mes
sage from the president of the
National PIT. A. urging the
mothers to awaken to the frenzy
of gambling which the youth of
the nation is encountering upon
every turn. This message was re-
ceived with a great amOut of APP
