the Commissioners would ap-
point only honorable men upon
whom such a check would not

Such powers might be needed
at first, Senator Allott said, but
IF that is your intention, /
don't agree with it as a gen.
eral principle of law"
Hybrid Authority
Senator Allott declared Sem
ator Morse had mistaken the
true nature" of the authority
and that it Is to be a public body
in every sense but that 1t can
not spend tax revenues. Thus, he
said. II doubt that the right to
strike against the Government
should be employed in this in
stance"
He called the authority a
hybrid entity which is neither
fish nor fowl and which like
the mule has neither pride of
ancestry nor hope of posterity."
He pointed out 1t will pay al
most no taxes and will have
complete governmental author
ity" over rates and services.
And, he warned, such boards
(of directors. appointed for five
year, staggered terms by the

COMMISSIONER are not respon-
Isible to the will Of the people. "
Since the Commissioners could
only remove the directors for
cause, he suggested, 1t would be
difficult for the Commissioners
to make the directors more re-
Isponsive to public demand.
Sees Some Advantage
There is some advantage.
Mr.. Spencer said, lin not max
ing it possible for the Commits
lsioners to remove directors lust
because they don't like them or
because they want to put some
body else on the board"
Senator Allott insisted it was
the unorganized people who
could not afford automobiles who
suffered the most during last
summers strike and who would
be least able to influence the
board of directors. This type
of thing is impractical and never.
never reflects responsibility"
Senator Allott said.
Donald Hyde, general manager
Iof the Cleveland Transit Au-
Ithority and a consultant on
Washington transportation af-
fairs. said the Cleveland system
has similar provisions and that
the mayor is quite concerned
about those he puts on the
board" And, he warned, Gin
Ivestors would be troubled about
permitting removal for any rea-
son other than the conditions

may" arbitrate. The Washing
ton transit union is seeking
amendments modelled on the
Chicago legislation. upon which
much of the District Commits
lsioners proposal is based.
! Senator Allott questioned Com
missioner Samuel Spencer on be-
half of the absent Senator Beall,
Republican of Maryland. Under
this quizzing, Mr.. Spencer said
Ihe would not object seriously to
writing into the bill the require
ment that some of the five mem
bers of the board of directors
should be residents of Maryland
and Virginia.
Point in Dispute
Mr.. Spencer and Brig. Gen.
Thomas A. Lane, Engineer Com
missioner. disagreed on whether
the proposed authority would be
subject to regulatory supervision
by the Maryland Public Service
Commission which sets fares
and schedules of service for
Capital Transit,
Mr.. Spencer said the Public
Service Commission would have
control unless Maryland au-
thoritieS agreed otherwise. while
Gen. Lane said the authority
would be expected to secure
control of it's own rates and serv-
/ ice by negotiation with Mary
land officials before promising to
give service there.
! District, Commissioner Robert
E. Mclaughlin, former chair
man of the District Public
Utilities Commission and chair
man of the interstate commits
sion studying transit problems
in Washington, said Maryland
Officials were standing by to in
ltroduce legislation in the Mary
land Legislature to let the au-
thority set its own rates and
service and to exempt it from
Maryland taxes.
Both Chairman NeRly and
Senator Allett agreed that the
five directors of the transit au-
thority. to be named by the
District Commissioners under
present legislation. should be
divided on a bipartisan basis.
Difficult to Operate
Assured by Mr.. Spencer that
the Commissioners would ap-
point a completely nonpolitical
body" Senator Nicely replied.
I'VE all hope that. but it is ex-
tremely difficult to operate any
thing with that many jobs" on
"a nonpartisan basis.
Mr.. Spencer agreed with Sen.
ator Allott that the authority
could hire a corporation to man.
age the transit system. He sug-
gested that one such system
might be the National City
Lines. now strikebound in Balti-
more. That system refused to
arbitrate new contracts, just as
did the Capital Transit Co. last
summer.
When Senator Allott suggested

which the authority buys, Mr..
Spencer insisted that I'VE we're
