Transit RATE HEARING
To Resume Friday

The Capital Transit rate in
crease hearing will be resumed
Friday, with company attorneys
slated to challenge two counter
proposals to their own petitions.
The hearing was suspended late
yesterday, after an expert of the
District Public Utilities Commits
sion had submitted two rate sched-
ules, each calling for less than
the company seeks and each en-
visioning retention of the weekly
pass.
The two alternative fare scales
would provide the company with
additional yearly revenue of from
1851 1872 to $878,067.
The proposals were made to the
PUG by its executive accountant,
William Falk. In past cases, the
commission generally has gone
along with the recommendations
Of it's accountant.
The first alternative calls for a
17-cent straight cash fare, tokens
at four for so cents and a $2.35
weekly pass.
Mr.. Falk's second proposal
would fix the cash fare at Is
cents, tokens at four for so cents
and a $3.50 pass.
The existing rate schedule in
cludes a 15-cent straight cash
fare, three tokens for 40 cents
and a $2.10 pass.

The policeman gagged and felt

much better. It took a little ex-.

that it could be seen from about
IS miles away.
Mr.. King operates five dairy
farms in the county. He lives on
the farm where the fire occurred.
