share of the situation and that every
effort is being put forth to encourage
people to do everything they possibly
can for themselves with small equip
ment.
The letter also gave Senator Farnand
much credit for the efforts he put forth
with the legislature to have that body
pass the measure making the spraying
equipment possible. Mr.. Comet was
very much pleased with this work as
well as the assistance of others in the
infected areas when he stated in his
letter to Mr.. SaXby:
cat this time might make a personal
expression to you. It is that your &C
tivity and efforts on Sunday prior to
closing of the legislature is exactly what
turned the trick. If you had not con-
tacted the members you did, this bill
would never have passed.
During the last two days there was
plenty of action on the part of the
northern senators and I believe the
final credit for well planned and eff
fective results goes to Senator Farnand.
In football terms, he was the man that
carried the ball, but I believe he had
every northern senator running inter-
ference for him."

"a change is made in the require

ATTACK ON RISE

Fare Called Too High for

BY A., J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

-N--~@@~
Assailing the increase in fares
granted to the Capital Transit
Company as unwarranted by the
type Of service furnished, the Trim
idad Citizens Association last night
supported the Federation Of Citi-
zens Associations in a request for
rehearing ON rates and evaluation
Of the transit company.
President George J. Cleary said
improved service was promised
when the merger took place, but
instead there had been higher
fares and one-man cars, which
looks like an invitation to public
ownership.
ASK PEOPLES COUNSEL
The association also asked Con-
gress to reestablish the office of
peoples counsel as a defender of
the public in all matters coming
before the Public Utilities Com
mission.
AS a relief to traffic congestion,
the transit company was requested
to reroute one line Of busses from
Fifth Street Northeast, between E
and K Streets, to either Fourth or
Sixth Streets.
Vigorously protesting recent
annual increases in the District
supply bill, the association, on
motion by H. S. Shilling, opposed
any increase in the 1899 District
