'HALF-DOZEN' PARTIES SEEK

The Commissioners disclosed today that they have
been approached by about different parties

another week before the differ
ences were compromised. BY
taking the proposal of the Com
missioners and their assurances
of cooperation. we are left to
our own ingenuity prior to get
ting out of business next Au-
gust.
THE unfortunate part of the
entire regrettable strike. the end
result of which has yet to be
appraised. is that it would have
been avoided had the P. U. C. ex-
ercised foresight last June in
stead CT waiting until today to
reach conclusion. 1t only proves
that the regulatory procedures
as they apply 70 transit opera
lions under present conditions,
are obsolete or else require Com

problems of a private enterprise

So black days will serve to
strengthen the company, the
union and the D. C. Commission
ers to work together during the
next year to warrant improved
patronage and respect for the
high standards of service rem
dered prior to the strike. The
strike. if it has had any merits
has most certainly highlighted
and made paramount the fact
that higher expenses can only
be met with higher revenues,
and in a transit operation, the
public must pay.
THE next year will be a chal-
lenge which the company ac-
cepts willingly and will strive
to set q goal that will be a
stepping stone for those who will
follow in assuming the RESPONSE
bility for providing transit serv-
ice to the community"

Broodwoter's Statement
On 7 ronsit Settlement

Following is a statement BY
/ J. A. B. BrondWdter, Capital
Transit Co. President. issued
after settlement OF the transit
strike:
The company elected to pro-
coed with the alternative to en-
ter into a direct contract with
the union as reached by the
D. c. Commissioners for the
coming year, rather than to
enter into a contract with the
District. In electing this pro-
'cedure the company is relying
once again on the P. U. C.'s esti-
mate that a fare of 20 cents cash,
Decent token and 90-cent per-
NIT, plus 10 cents for each ride,
will reach the estimates made by
them that it will produce the
revenues needed to meet the ad-
ditional labor costs incurred
under the new labor contract.
The company also has the as
surance that the school fare will
be equitably adjusted promptly
and that the D. C. Commission
ers will consider another up
ward step in the fare structure
III the new rates fail to produce
sufficient revenue to keep the
company from operating in the
red. The company also has fur
ther assurances that any serv-
ice economies will meet the
prompt attention and decision
Iof the Commissioners.
The paramount reason for
proceeding directly with the
union was the consideration that
the process was the most direct
and quickest way OF getting the
wheels rolling. now that the
differences with the union are
resolved. II we had entered into
