New Hackers Union
Will Ask PUG Review
OF zoning Fare RATE

Two steps planned to improve tax
: tcab service in the District, and to
better the working conditions of
the cab drivers, were outlined last
night at an organizational meeting
of the Associated TaXicab Operators,
newly formed union.
The first step is to request the
: Public Utilities Commission to re-
view its coming fare rate and make
changes which, union leaders be-
lieve, would stop complaints from
the public that cabs pass them by
and refuse to obey the mandatory
group riding" ruling.
The group-riding ruling means
loss of fare, in many cases, to the
cab drivers, it was explained by DR..
Erwin Dollar, union secretary. A
cab driver who picks up two per-
sons, one going short distance, the
other going long distance, will
earn less money under the group
riding fare rate than if he had
picked up only the passenger going
the long distance, Mr.. Dollar said.
Propose Change in Rule.
The union hopes to change this
situation by a restatement on the
rule SO that group-riding rates
would prevail only when more than
one person was in the cab-that is,
person going long distance would
pay group fare for that part of the
route during which there was an
other passenger, but a single fare
when he was the only person in the
cab.
Another step contemplated by the
union is establishing equity of rental
fees for cab drivers who rent their
cabs from feet companies. The
age of the car, its make, condition,
etc, should be taken into account,
and city-wide standard should be
set up to prevail through all feet
company rental rates, Mr.. Dollar
said.
AS postwar aims, the union hopes
TO control the number of cabs IL
censed, the number of cabs on the
street at any given time and the
. types of men driving Washington
cabs, Mr. Dollar declared.
IS Attend Meeting.
Approximately rs cab drivers at
tended the meeting last night and
heard warnings that if they did not
organize there was danger of a re-
turn to the "jitney service" condi-
tions which prevailed during the
early 1905.
Thomas A. OBrien, American
Federation of Labor Eastern sea-
board organizer, spoke to the group.
At its next meeting, August 7, the
group will vote on whether or not to
affiliate with the AFL.
Membership in the new union is
open to any man or woman who
earns the principal part of his or her
wages from hacking, it was said
No part-time driver will be per-
mitted to join.
