$500 Taxitab Limit
To Be Urged Again
By Utilities Group
Commission Believes
Capital Has Too
Many Drivers

Authority to limit the number of
taxicabs operating in the District
to $500 will be sought by the Pub
lie Utilities Commission again at
the forthcoming session of Con-
gress, according to an announce
ment by Riley E. Elgen, commits
sion chairman.
The present number of cabs
would be reduced to the proposed
limit over a period of years as
drivers drop out of the field or
their licenses are revoked for cause.
There now are about $500 cabs,
but the total is expected to go near
er to last years peak of 4,300 be-
fore the fiscal year is ended.
Mr.. Elgen has found that the
adoption of compulsory taxicab liza
bility insurance has not reduced the
number of taXis as much as had
been expected by some observers,
and he is convinced there are too
many cabs to permit the average
driver to make decent living.
Several groups of taxi owners or
drivers have proposed an increase
In zone rates. The commission has
not yet decided whether to call a
hearing on these proposals, wait for
further experience under compulsory
insurance or order a formal inves-
tigation of the insurance plan.
