CABB|ESSEEDOOM
IN PREMIUM COST
Simply Don't See How We're
Going to Make It, Is the
Consensus of Three.

We simply dent see how we're
going to make it, was the consensus
of three taxicab drivers approached
at random on the new compulsory
liability insurance costs yesterday.
One of scores of such little groups
gathered at cab stands all over the city
the three expressed their views with
considerable feeling on what they
thought it would do to their incomes.
George WEIGH, 706 Fourth street
Sc, a driver for the District Cab
Association. has been pushing hack
for seven years. He's buying his car,
meeting a note of $50, pays out s45
for operating expenses and IS dues to
the association each month. That's a
total of s1l0-static expenses. The
rate Of s2l monthly for the insurance
would bring the total to sl31 monthly.
I'm single and am just making ex-
penses," WEIGH said. Il don't Gear
but an average of sl3 weekly. How
am I going to meet the insurance cost?
I ask you"
Mr. Welch estimated 1000 cabs
would be forced from the street the
day the new ruling went into effect
Opposes Raising Fares.
He is against raising the fares. how
ever, believing that it would cut seri-
ously into the total revenue.
c. H. Pohlig, 19 U street NV, a
driver with the Terminal Association,
also was opposed to raising fares in an
attempt to bring in more revenue, but
proposed creation of a fifth zone with
a rate of 80 cents, which is 20 cents
higher than the fourth and highest
zone now in effect.
"A little should be chopped off each
zone" he believed, "and new boun-
daries fixed for all, in order to make
it fairer for both the riding public
and the operators"
Mr. Pohlig cited an example of rides
of approximately six miles and of nine
blocks, both of which cost the pos
could ride from Wisconsin avenue and
Albemarle street NV. to the Penn
Theater at Pennsylvania avenue and
Seventh street Sc, distance of about
six miles, for the same amount he
could ride to the theater from Penn
slyvania avenue and Sixteenth street
Sc, about nine blocks away.
Doesn't Work Both Ways.
Thomas Payne, 2l3 Tenth street
S.W., driver fer the Washington Cab
Association. deplored the fact the new
insurance ruling did not apply to all
cars, instead of only taxicabs.
Now suppose man driving an
old wreck runs into me and he doesn't
have any money" he theorized
Where do get my money from?
He's ruined my cab and I've got to
have it fixed up right away because
it's my means Of livelihood. What
about me?
But If run into him, he gets his
old wreck fixed up like new. And
why? Because I've been paying for
$1,000 worth of property damage in
surance. 1t ought to work both ways.
If you ask me, a lot of people are
going to start having wrecks with cabs
just to get their cars fixed up"

G. NJ. W: l have been in the
hospital three times this year and
l don't seem to get any better and
l am wondering if l will ever re-
gain my health back? 1t looks
doubtful to me.
Ans: A change will eventually
take place in your health if you
continue to cooperate with your
doctors in charge. In fact you
have practically won your battle
and by being patient a few months
longer you will again be well and
strong again. Refrain from worry.
NJ. L. l.: have a lot of trouble
with my husband. When he gets
mad he often tells me to get out
and this happens many times.
Must l leave him and do you think
it is right for him to say these
things? 1 love him but want to
do the right thing?
Ans: Stay right there in your
home and take care of your two
boys for they need you. This hus-
band of yours isn't a bad sort {.
he just flies off the handle and is
temperamental as the dickens.
When he gets on the "war-path"

have to listen to his regular

1t Doesn't
Make Sense

Spending your money with con-
Germs who do not appreciate your
patronage just doesn't make sense.
There are two ways for a mer-
chant to express to you in unmis-
taxable terms that he WANTS and
APPRECIATES your pennie s,
nickels, dimes and dollars.
One of those sure signs is the
presence of cOlored employees in the
establishment. The other is the
presence of advertising from the
concern in the Negro community
newspaper.

MY 1889 ASTROLOGY READ
INGS ARE NOW READY.

L. c. B.: l am graduating from
Business School in February and ]
would like to know if l will be
fortunate enough to find employ
ment or what should l expect as
my funds are getting low?
Ans: You are qualified to hold
down a position right at this time
and it is my suggestion that you
place your application for employ
ment at every place over the city
where you feel you could get work.
You will get employment before
graduation and will finish your
course in NIGHT SCHOOL.
G. W. D.: l have two songs that
l have written and l sent them to
a Publisher and they ask fifty dol
lars each to publish them. Is this
a reliable company and what would
1 get for them if I had them pub
ished?
Ans: If you were to go ahead
and have them published you might
not even get dime for them z.
don't waste your money this way.
If they were good enough in the
eyes of the publisher, they would
offer to pay you for your songs.
Why don't you submit them to
Duke Ellington if he can use
them he will treat you fairly.
NJ. S.: am with a man and l
love him very much. He gets
drunk and gets mad about every
thing under the sun and nothing is
ever right. Can l change him or
should 1 just call it off right now?
Ans: You won't change him q.
the only way he will ever be
changed is for him to make up his
mind to give up drinking. You are
such young girl, l feel you would
be much happier to wash your
hands of this affair right now and
if he proves himself a man go
back to him.
A. J. H.: For some time now
have been a constant reader of
your column. Please tell me if
will get a better job as I can't
make ends meet with my present
one?
Ans: Yes, indeed, you will get
better work and Immediately,
too. 1t is up to you to scout around
over the city and look for some
thing that pays better when
you find it, give up your present
job. A change is indicated before
the first of the year.
E. B. W.: lost my husband and
l am left with a baby and without
work. Tell me if l will get an
other good husband any time soon ?
Ans: The very first thing you
need to get is a good job. Have
someone look after your child and
you provide a home for the young
ster and yourself. A marriage will
take place in your life but not in
the near future. This is one prob,
