Taxicabs and Liability.

For nearly twenty years the organized
citizenry Of Washington has been en-
deavoring without success to persuade
Congress that taxicabs operating in the
city should be required to carry public
liability insurance. At various times each
branch of the Congress has passed it's
own compulsory insurance bill, but they
have been unable to reach agreement on
single measure.
In 1929, the Public Utilities Commits
sion attempted to require that taxicabs
provide measure of financial RESPONSE
blllty, but an appeal was taken to the
courts, where it was held the commission
was without such authority. Following
that decision the commission has ap-
peared before Congress each year, urging
passage of legislation to give it the
needed power. This effort has had the
unqualified support of virtually every
trade and civic organization in the COM
munity. Likewise a majority of the rep
resentatives of the taxicab drivers have
advocated liability insurance.
In the face of this concerted appeal, it
is difficult to understand why Congress
has not enacted the necessary legislation.
There can be no question as to the desir-
ability of the insurance plan. Most of the
larger cities have adopted it already. In
the District the many unfortunate ex-
periences of persons injured in accidents
attributable to the negligence of taxicab
drivers is well known. While some taxi
cab operators have made provisions to
pay judgments, others have not. Some
have resorted to questionable legal de-
vices to escape the payment of judg-
ments. Others have had no means of
paying judgments, and no assets on
which the victim could levy after WIN
ming his battle in the courts.
Some objection to compulsory liability
insurance has been voiced on the ground
it would force number of drivers out of
business This, of course, should not be
the real objective of liability insurance,
But if there are drivers so irresponsible
financially. that they cannot meet the
cost of insurance, they are not entitled
to the use of the public streets for their
own personal gain. The taxicab is a pub
lie carrier, and as such it must assume
any obligation reasonably calculated to
protect the public that pays for its sup
port.

Action OF the Dupont Circle Citizens

initiation by District highway and traffic

the Dupont Circle project would be

Protests Decision Of Judge
In Building and Loan Case

To the Editor OF The star:
AS one of the shareholders of the
closed Fidelity Building & Loan Associa-
tion, protest against the unnecessary
and unjustified action of Justice O'Dono-
hue in blocking the payment of divi-
dend. This dividend had already been
approved by the receiver, Treasury off,
cials, members of the new organization
and every one concerned, although the
justice has ordered reappraisal of the
property. he still declares that he believes
the p.esent appraisal to be fair. Why
pile up further expense on the unfortu-
nate shareholders, who have suffered
enough and who need this money now
for living expenses?

homeward by rail, the man who sought

Engineer J. B. Weymes of the Atlantic

in few months, after service of fifty

When you punish a feller that made a

He may turn in cynical way
And seem to be careless of efforts YOU

To move him by all that you say.
Down deep in his heart you, as yet, have
not seen,
Resentment might not be so grim,
If you only could know with what

That mistake has been Furnishing him.

u. 5. NATIONAL
INCOME ABOVE
YEAR AGO

The national income produced
in the United States declined in
May for the second consecutive
month, according to the Alexan'
der Hamilton Institute.
The decline during April and
May, however, was only a mod
crate one and the national in
come in May was still considerably
larger than in the same month
last year. At the same time, the
percentage gain over a year ago
declined sharply from 1872 per
cen in March to 22.1 per cent in
April and to 1876 per cent in May.
This is explained by the fact that
income trend was upward last
year, while this year it was down
ward.
The national income this year
declined from $6,065, 10000 in
March to $6,032, 000, 900 in April
and to $6,017, 900 900 in May. In.
come in May last year amounted
to $5,073, 000, 900. The cumulative
total for the first five months was
$29, 1855, 600, 900 in 1887 as against
$24,115, 100000 in 1885, an in
crease of 21.7 per cent.
It is probable that reports for
June will show a further decline
in the national income and a
further reduction in the percent
age gain over a year ago when
the income showed expansion, the
report said. Despite the recent
trend, the annual national income
still promises to be the largest for
the current inflationary move
ment, although the increase over
last years income will be less
than the sharp gain with which
1887 started.

ment of strikes in the steel indus

ried a total of 567. 805.874 lines

GOOD START
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, July 26 G.N.S0.

steels and motors principally, and
the opening bulge in utility issues

General Motors was a fraction
lower. Auburn ran contrary to
the general trend, jumping a point
to 20T.
u. s. Steel dropped about a
point. Bethlehem declined even
further, and youngstown fell more
than a point.
Railroad shares turned irregu-
lar. Chesapeake & Ohio held a l
point gain, but other rails drop
ped. N. Y. Central was OF Ia
points.
Farm Equipment shares lost, ex-
cept in the case Of j. l. Case,
which held its rise Of q point.
Utilities opened strong, but later
losses of fractions to a point were
recorded.
Commodities resumed their de-
cline. Wheat lost a cent. Corn
was down 2 cents. Cotton lost 81

MOVING

OF u. 5. GOLD
INDICATED
By ERIC FRIEDHEIM

Definite signs that the United
States shortly may lose substan.
tial amounts Of its huge gold stocks
were seen today in financial
circles. n
Treasury officials are scanning
with welcoming eyes this months
developments in the International
monetary situation which already
has resulted in a small outward
movement of the yellow metal.
Last week, the flood of gold
pouring into this country was
checked for the first time in
almost year when the Treasury
exported SAL, 800,cH0 of the metal.
Although a portion of this cut
flow represented sale of gold to
China under the recently adopted
Sino-American financial pact, Of.
ficialS indicated most of it went to
European nations, particularly
England, France and Holland.
The export of gold was necessi.
tated because of recent weakness
of the dollar in international ex-
change caused by withdrawal Of
foreign money balances in the
United States. BY repatriating
their capital, foreigners exchange
dollars for other currencie6, thus
flooding the exchange market with
American money.
To keep the value of the dollar
stable, the countries that are mem
bers of the tripartite monetary
agreement purchase American cur
rency and then exchange it for
American gold.
Since the Treasury now buys
gold with borrowed money instead
of printing currency against it
a costly method designed TO pre-
vent initiation - the Administra.
ton highly desires an outflow Of
foreign capital.
Officials are hopeful that there
will be a considerable amount
Of capital repatriated by France
during the next few months.
This is possible as a result Of
last weeks action by the French
government in setting up a huge
fund to support the market for
its bonds. --
