Capital Transit Plea
10 Cut Nonrush Hour
Service Approved

The Public Utilities Commission
yesterday granted the Capital
Transit Co. authority to reduce its
nonrush-hour streetcar service by
approximately one to three trips an
hours on various lines In order to
improve the regularity of service
with, the present manpower shcrt-
ages.
Although the move was strongly
protested by a number of colored
and civic groups, maintaining col
ored platform men should be tried
before any reductions were allowed,
the commission said ut was unable
to find anything in the statute, OF
its legislative history, authorizing
this commission to impose its judg-
ment on management with respect
to employment policies"
Company spokesman said it would
take until the first week of May to
reschedule even a few lines and
that it might take until June to
rearrange all the lines.
Sees Better Service.
"Basically," said the commission
In its order, "the plan proposed by
the company contemplates that
through the scheduling OF fewer
trips on various streetcar lines there
will be greater assurance that those
trips will be operated, with the
result that the service will adhere
more closely to schedule and the
regular service will reduce the dis
parity between the loadings on sue
ceSsive trips"
1t was pointed out, for example,
that on the Mount Pleasant line,
Routes 40 and AZ, the new schedule
calls for a change from 20 cars per
hour to 17.2 cars per hour, or an
increase in the interval between
cars from 3 to 31z minutes. After
reviewing the effect on other lines,
the commission commented:
1T will be seen that the
proposed reduction in schedule in
base day (nonrush) service results
in inappreciable changes in the
minutes elapsing between cars on
all heavy lines, such as the Mount
Pleasant, Fourteenth street and
Georgia avenue lines, and in mod
crate changes on lighter lines, such
as the North Capitol. Maryland and
Tenleytown lines"
Save 81 Cars Hourly.
The change will result in saving
So cars per hour in the nonrush-
hour period and 178 operators. The
PUG said it must be borne IN mind
that this does not mean that the
present service would be reduced
by such amounts, since, as already
pointed out, many trips that are
now scheduled are not actually run. y
The commission recalled that at
the public hearing last month, the
record showed that the company
lacked 683 full-time operators, and
was short 271 operators, after taking
into account women and part time
operators. 1t was further pointed
out that during a recent test day,
the company was unable to oper-
ate 1854 scheduled vehicles in the
morning rush hour and al sched-
uled vehicles in the evening rush
hour.

Senate Food probers
Seek Sales Records
OF Meat Handlers

The Senate Food Investigating
Committee may resume its inquiry
into Washington's meat famine and
reports Of black market dealings
next week despite failure Of the
group yesterday to learn anything
about black market operations here.
Several committee members have
asked Chairman Thomas to SUBJ
poena the sales records of District
Slaughterers, meat packers and re-
tailers in fresh attempt to get at
the bottom of the meat problem
here.
Three Washington slaughterers
and one large retailer SHE'D away
from questions on the black market
at a hearing yesterday. The retailer
commented that he would not say
anything contrary to the OPA."
The slaughterers, however, discussed
freely their problems of trying to
stay in business with present OPA
ceilings.
Working on Subsidy.
The committee disclosed yesterday
that it had heard the Government
was working on a more flexible"
meat subsidy and pricing program
designed to keep packers profits up
to peacetime levels.
Ofhcials Of the Office of Price
Administration, the War Food Adj
ministration and the Defense Sup
plies Corp, which actually admins
tiers subsidies, acknowledged that
new plans were in the making, but
said details were yet to be worked
out. For one thing, the program
has yet to be submitted to William
H. Davis, director of economic sta
bilization, who must approve any
subsidy increase.
Meanwhile House committeeman,
conducting separate inquiry into
food shortages, heard a rancher's
demand for 3 cents pound more to
the producer on high-grade beef.
Richard M. Kleberg, former Texas
Representative and manager of the
huge King Ranch in Texas, said that
an increase would in large degree
stif1e the black market.
Cant Blame Public"
"You can't blame people for deal
ing with the black market when they
can get good beefsteak there while
the meat they buy at legal markets
tastes like kangaroo meaA" Mr..
Kleberg said.
The Texas rancher said the in.
crease would have to be passed on
in higher prices to the houseSife, q
position at variance with the re-
ported OPA plan.
Members of Congress heard that
the new program might be put into
effect this week end.
