spread on the record support for
its claim that it canrot afford
to pay the cost Of improved
working conditions and higher
wages demanded by its en-
ployes' union.
Carrying their story to the
public, Walter j. Bierwagen,
president of Local 689. Amalga-
mated Association Of Street.

plans a 15-minute television ap-

He will, he said, show film clips
Of the Friday night union meet
ing at which Capital Transit en-
ployes voted 2,142 to 1874 to let
their officers call a strike any
time after the current labor con-
tract expires at midnight Thurs
day.
Commissioners to Meet
Commissioner Samuel Spencer
said last night, the city heads
will decide tomorrow If and
when to declare a state of emer-
gency. Already. he said. Police
Chief Robert v. Murray is hold
ing up police leaves because Of
the expected strike.
The decision, he indicated,
will follow a 8 am. conference
with representatives of the Fed
eral Mediation Service who re-
Gently stepped into the dispute.
The commissioners, Mr.. Spencer
said, have told the mediators
they will do anything they can
to settle the strike.
Meanwhile, the Senate Dis
trict Committee planned to work
out some sort of appeal to the
union, the company and the Dis
trict Commissioners when 1t
meets at 3 pm. tomorrow.
Judging from the study OF
Capital Transit's financial po-
sition and the temper Of the
union and the company, It
seemed highly unlikely that mere
appeals would forestall a strike.
Solution Discussed
Veteran observers predicted
the solution lay in government
action to ease the company's A.
nancial position, action which
presumably would be taken only
after the city has suffered the
economic impact of a strike.
Specifically. the union has
made "bargainable" demands
which the company estimates
would cost 1t 81 million a year.
OF this. $2.1 million is for wage
increases alone.
What the union might ulti-
mately settle for. however, was a
|closely-kept secret. Although
bargaining sessions have con-
tinued-and Federal mediators
have scheduled another for q
pm. tomorrow-the company
apparently has made little effort
to find out.
E. Cleveland Giddings, Capital
Transit vice president, insisted
during the utilities commission
hearings that the company
doesn't have enough money to
make serious discussions posi-
BILE.
What Figures Show
The figures seemed to bear
him out. Vice President James
H. Flanagan, Capital Transit
controller, testified that in the
IL months ended last April 80,
the company took in $26, ,065, ,981,
but spent 25,300,691 to do so.
The difference was 765 ,290 in net
operating income to be credited
to the company's stockholders.

several hundred feet upriver to

piece Of land which lies at the
southern tip of controversial
Roosevelt Memorial Island.
The possibility depends en-
tirely upon permission by the
Theodore Roosevelt Association
for the District to build the

association has rejected such
ideas in the past.

The Senate, acting on the
Districts appropriation bill,
three days ago approved SIS
million to begin the bridges
construction at a point between
South Island and Arlington Me-
mortal Bridge. At the prompting
of Senator Case, Republican, of
South Dakota. however. the
Senate said the span could be
built over South Island if the
Roosevelt Association approves
by August /.
Ebert Peets. q member Of the
Fine Arts Commission, sent the
association yesterday q sketch
showing how the bridge could
cross the upriver end Of South
Island, Just south Of the main
island.
His idea Is that South Island,
replanted and possibly built up
with fill soil, could effectively
screen part Of the span. And its
new route would leave virtually
intact the immediate Lincoln
Memorial area.
Mr.. Peets said such q plan
