service for residents of the
densely populated area along the
county line.
The plan was opposed by
Prince Georges drivers, who said
1t would open the door to a
similar reciprocity agreement
with the District and thus in

Prince Georges now has no

A proposal to establish reci-
procity between Montgomery
and Prince Georges Counties for
the operation of taxicabs across
the county line was rejected yes
terday by the Prince Georges
Commissioners.
After lengthy hearing in the
Hyattsville County Service Build
ing, the commissioners voted to
retain a restriction on inter-
county operation of cabs to those
licensed in both counties.
The proposal, drawn up by the
cab inspectors of the jurisdic-
tions, would have permitted
drivers to answer calls across the
county line and pick up pas
Sengers on the return trip. 1t
also would have enabled drivers
to take passengers from the
home county into the other
county and return with a fare.
The plan prohibited cruising.
