Bus Riders 10 Fight
Scent Increase Plan
In Arnold Dime Fares

A fight was in the making today over
proposed fare increases in two out
of six zones operated by the Wash
ington, Virginia & Maryland Coach
Co. (Arnold Line), following yester-
days recommendations of Interstate
Commerce Commission Examiner
Tobias Naftalin.
The examiner proposed a scent
increase in Zone /, cash fares be-
tween Washington and nearby Ar
lington, where the rate Is now 10
cents; recommended sale of tokens
at a rate of two for Is cents in this
zone, and suggested an increase
from 20 to Is cents in the company's
Zone 4 rate.
In a separate ruling, ICc Exam
iner c. w. Bennett recommended an
increase of from 10 to IS cents in
the fare of the Washington, Marl-
boro and Annapolis Motor Lines,
Inc, for Its Seat Pleasant (Mdo
route, except to Coral Hills and Hill
side. The fare for Washington
commuters from the latter two COM
munities would remain 10 cents.
Due to a misinterpretation of the
ruling, it was reported in The Star
yesterday that the examiner had
recommended denial of fare in
creases at all points on the w. M.
& AS Seat Pleasant route. The
denial of increase, however. applied
only to Coral Hills and Hillside.
A member of the Arlington Public
Utilities Commission, who asked that
his name be withheld. said that, in
all proba bility. the commission would
file exceptions to the Arnold Lines
findings within the 20-day period
allowed by the examiner.
Association to Act.
The Arlington Bus Riders Asso-
citation, which has opposed vigor-
ously any fare increase by the line,
also was reported ready to intervene.
Francis j. Ortman, attorney for the
association, observed that yester-
days recommendations were "de-
cidely victory for the buSllne.
J. Ninian Beall, attorney for the
Arnold Line, said company officials
may decide some time next week
what steps to take. He pointed out
that Mr.. Naftalin's proposal repre-
sented "77 per cent of what we
asked for" It has been estimated
thot reuenI1es from the first zone
make up about II per cent OF the.
company's returns and that the pro-
posed increase for this zone alone
would bring in SIT 500 a month addi-
tional.
No estimate was available on the
increased revenues from the pro-
posed increase in Zone 4 fares, but a
company spokesman said 1t would
be negligible.

Taxi Interests Pay
$500 10 Push Bill
To Limit Cabs Here

Members of the Senate District
Committee learned last night that
Washington taxicab interests had
paid $4,000 to public relations man
to work for bill which would limit
the number of licensed cabs in the
District.
The District Committee this week
recommended one of the long pend
ing bills on this subject, but Senate
approval was blocked by an objec-
ton raised by Senator Johnston
Democrat, of South Carolina.
Enactment Today Discounted.
Chances for enactment at this
session, which ends tonight, ap-
peared slim.
Albert w. Levitt, former secretary
to Senator Hawkes., Republican, OF
New Jersey, who resigned that post
April /, said he was the public re-
lations man. He told reporters he
had been paid for his work but that
his services ended with this session.
A story of the publicity campaign
came to light in letters John H.
Roger, jr., head of the Combined
Cab Service, Inc. sent to the Inde-
pendent Taxi Owners Association,
soliciting contributions to the fund,
according to a photostated letter re-
leased to the press by Senator
Johnston.
Further Payment Mentioned.
This letter said the Combined Cab
Service and other cab interests had
agreed to pay the public relations
man an additional $17,500, above the
retainer fee of $4,000. when the re-
quested bill was enacted into law.
The letter listed the publicity
operative as c. w. Levitt but the
former secretary to Senator Hawkes.
said this was a mistake in the first
initial. He said he had not been in
formed of any additional payne ut
to be made, above the s2,500 retainer,
if the bill passed.

FARM NEWS

Only during the next two or
three weeks will pastures alone
furnish sufficient feed for maxi
mum production predicts Delmar
j. Young, extension dairyman. Af-
ter this period, Young cautions
Delaware dairymen to watch their
pastures closely and as they be-
come grazed down to supplement
their dairy feeding with silage and
hay. Young bases this recommen-
dation on the fact that the average
COW needs 100 pounds of grass
daily to maintain her body and
produce 20 pounds of per cent
milk if she is given no other sup
Elemental feeds. Cows producing
more than this amount of milk and
COWS on pasture that is short must
get the additional food elements
from barn feeding. Maximum milk
production through the summer
can be maintained only by careful
attention to adequate feeding.
Summer shelters for layers pro-
vide bird comfort during hot
weather. Poultrymen should have
theirs ready for use not later than
May Is, says j. Frank Gordy, ex-
tension poultryman. Moving the
yearling hens from the regular
laying house at this time will have
little effect upon production. Nov
ing the birds in July or August
will likely cause them to molt.
Whether you are transplanting
acres of plants or only a few in
the garden, give starter solutions

dends. This is the advice of E. P.

who points out that starter solu-
ton will lessen the shock of trans
planting and speed early plant
growth.
