| Hankin Joins Debate
|0nThree-TokenIssue;
Hearings 10 Continue
Transit Official Sees
Loss Of Revenue IF
Sale Busis Is Cut

Further. hearings will be held by
the Public Utilities Commission this
week on petitions by civic groups
to force the Capital Transit Co. to
sell street car and bus tokens at the
rate of three for a quarter.
Although he did not state what
conclusions he may have reached,
Gregory Hankin, chairman Of the
P. U. c., at yesterdays session of
the hearings, which started Friday,
gave strong support to contentious
by public witnesses that the present
minimum sale, six for so cents, was
unjustly discriminatory against car
and bus riders in the lower income
groups.
Testimony was halted yesterday
for considerable time while Chair
man Hankin and G. Thomas Dun
lop, of counsel for the Capital
Transit Co., debated at length a
variety of theoretical questions
about token fare structures.
Heberle Sees Revenue Loss.
Joining in the exchange. J. E.
Heberle, vice president and con-
troller of the company, argued that
to sell tokens at three for a quarter
would mean a loss of $4,000 to
$250,000 annually to the company
Mr.. Dunlop argued there was no
unreasonable" discrimination in
volved in the present six for so cent
token sale rate.
On the question of financial loss
to the company. under the proposed
change, Mr. Hankin said. $50 what?
Assume there is an unjust dis
elimination against people in the
low income group. Assume there will
be reduction in company revenue.
Still, I want to know why the system
should not be changed to remove
the discrimination"
Mr.. Heberle replied that if the
alleged discrimination we're cor
rected by providing token sales at
three for a quarter it might lead to
consideration of other "discrimina-
tions" Mr.. Hankin suggested that
then 1t might become the duty OF
the P. U. c. to remove "all" discrimi-
nations. Previously, Mr.. Dunlop had
argued that under any token fare
system there might be "discrimina-
tions" but that the test was whether
they were unreasonable"
U. S. Statistician Heard.
During yesterdays session of the
public hearing. which was held in
response to petitions by the Fed
Grafton of Citizens Associations and
the Federation of Civic Associations,
Miss Faith NJ Williams, chief of
the Cost of Living Division of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, Labor
Department, testified that the six
for so cents systems worked a hard
ship on persons in the low-income
groups.
Company officials denied that the
low-income groups were discrimi-
mated against, claiming such groups
were among the heaviest users"
of the weekly pass.
