Judge Charles Markell wrote fol
the court.
Nothing remains but to set aside
the commissions orders with re-
spect to fares for school children,
Judge Markell said.
The decision reversed Judge w
Conwell Smith of Baltimore Circuit
Court, who on May 26 dismissed
Capital Transit's suit for an injunc-
ton against the PSC order. The case
was sent back to Baltimore for dis
position in accordance with this
opinion"
Nearly year ago the transit COM
pany asked permission to revise its

Montgomery and Prince Georges
Counties and to put in fiat s.

Fare Raised for Adults.
The Public Service Commission
last April approved the scent fare
for adults, but at the same time Or
dered Capital Transit to set up a
cut-rate school fare. 1t said it
would not permit the former unless
the company also agreed to the lat

Capital Transit cannot be coerced

fares by unlawful denial of neces-

held.

School Fare Of Scents
Due in Maryland Under
Appeals Court Ruling

School children riding Capital
Transit Co. lines in Maryland must
pay cents per zone, the Maryland
Court of Appeals ruled yesterday.
The present fare for each mile
and-a-half zone is cents. The
court ruling brings the school fare
up to that charged adults since last
June.
The court voided an order of the
Maryland Public Service Commits
sion setting fares on buses and troll
leys at cents per zone for school
children.
A Capital Transit Co. spokesman
said no comment could be made re-
garding the effective date of the
new fare, pending a study of the
court decision by company attor-
neys.

Alexandra Hospital
May Close Jan. 81
Due 10 Lack Of Funds

The Alexandria Hospital will be
forced to close January 81 due to
lack of funds unless new sources of
income are obtained before then,
the institutions Board of Directors
announced last night.
David S. Haddock, president OF
the board, told an emergency meet
ing of the hospital corporation and
the City Council last night that
the institution had exhausted its
borrowing ability and present in
come could not take care of debts
and current operating expenses.
To forestall closing of the hos
pital the corporation requested the
City Council to appropriate $4,000
IN its 194s budget to care for indi-
gents, and appropriate $4,000 ''for
the maintaining of other essential
services to the citizens unable to pay
hospital bills" The larger sum
would represent an outright grant
by the city, about which some city
officials have raised questions OF
legality in past years,
Statement Of the hospitals posi-
tion was outlined in a letter, read
last night, from MIR. Haddock to r
Samuel Luckett, chairman OF the
Councils Hospital Committee.
Mr.. Haddock said at the rate OF
present losses, the hospital could
expect to lose about $4,000 during
1913. He said that by the end OF
January lack of funds would make
1t impossible to meet the payroll or
buy essential supplies for maintain
ing the hospital.
The board president emphasized
that the situation had been coming
to a head for a long time He said
closing had been forestalled several
times, particularly during the re-
cent 100000 hospital fund cam
paign.
Now, however, the situation is
the gravest it ever has been." Mr.
Haddock said. The threat of bank
ruptcy has been present for some
time"
Mr.. Haddock said the Board OF
Directors had concluded that the
continuance of the hospital must
become "at least in part" the tax
payers responsibility. He said it
was admitted that the sums asked
for from the city ARE considerably
above the amount paid now,
but it must be fully realized that
were this hospital to close the city
would face the necessity of making
a larger and immediate investment
III order to safeguard its citizens
with a hospital of It's own"
On motion of Mr.. Luckett, the cor
poration asked for a study Of bills
owed to the hospital, and it was
suggested that the City Council meet
with the Fairfax County Board OF
Supervisors to determine that
county's position in the matter.

In Case Our Neighbors down at
Marblehead haven't heard, Claude
Verne Talbot, News Travel Editor,
for the Cleveland News, wrote a.
very glowing account, last week,
about their town and the surround
my vacationland. The column was
written at a picnic table in the
roadside park at the tip of the
peninsula. Amony other things he
said "The place is delightful, the
breeze so pure and cool, the song
of the birds so sweet that | would
like to remain here forever" But
apparently the extensive advertis-
ing done by the Peninsular Vaca-
tionland group hasn't caught up
with Mr.. Talbot for he says, "Thus
far this territory has not been
pushed to any great extent. l
know l haven't been too excited
about it and yet right now I can't
recall a more pleasantly peaceful
spot than | have right here"
Maybe a folder of vacationland
literature should be sent to Mr..
Talbot to prove that some push
ing" has been done as evidenced
by traffic and the number of vaca-
tionists seen daily in these parts.
