Rv HENRY AVERHl..

Raleigh, July 3O.-When the Nor
folk and Southern filed an applica-
tiontion to discontinue it's passenger
service between Raleigh and Char
lotte, there was quite an cutlery from
representatives. of cities and chambers
of commerce along the route.
Opposition of the hottest sort was
forecast This city insisted on a
chance to be heard. That trade body
called on the Utility Commission not
to overlook it in counting UP the OPP
pOnents.
That was several weeks ago. Sched-
uled hearings were postponed more
than once. Eventually Friday, July
20 was definitely decided upon. Prep
arations for a keen battle were made.
The little hearing room at the COM
mission was prepared to handle a
large crowd.
Came the appointed day and hour.
Came also the railroads representa-
tives. Came not one single, solitary
soul to oppose.
What had happened. Just this: TAX
ing advantage of the time granted by
postponements, representatives of the
road visited every city along the way;
went to see those who were hottest
in their shouts of protest; showed
them the facts and figures.
Per day revenue from the passenger
service, it was shown, was 1892 for
the last year. Per day expense of op-
Grating the passenger coaches on the
mixed trains was $45.O1. Net daily
loss TO the road, consequently, was
$41.O9. City officials and chamber Of
commerce secretaries could under
stand that without any trouble.
And so when the rail representatives
showed up Friday they not only had
nobody to battle them, but they had
in their brief cases letters or petitions
from either the mayor or chamber
of commerce secretary, or both, o.
every town and city along the route
including Raleigh and Charlotte, ask
ing that the application to discon
tinue be granted.
It was,

Some Omissions
From Legislative Program.

The Commissioners tentative
legislative program, which they
presumably will submit to the
citizens for consideration at a
public hearing, omits several
items which have had wide or
ganization and individual in
dorsement in the past. These in
clude a new code of laws for the
District, a new small loan law,
daylight saving and the naming
of the Pennsylvania Avenue
Bridge over the Anacostia River
after John Philip Sousa.
There is said to be a great need
for the rewriting of the District
of Columbia code Of laws. This
was provided for in the Randolph
bill (H. r. 3027, Seventy-fifth
Congress), but nothing came of it.
The daylight savings bill III. r.
6546, Seventy-flfth Congress)
reached a hearing but no action
was taken by the committee. A
bill, introduced by the late Sena-
tor Copeland, to name the bridge
after Sousa was reported favor
ably by the District Committee,
but failed to get Senate action.
All of these items will be urged
on the new Congress.
