Grandmother

The day is past when grandmama
Was put upon a shelf
She had to sit and fold her hands;
She couldn't help herself.
There weren't any jobs for her;
Her usefulness was past.
Now grandma takes the children while
Her daughters go to work,
Or else she gets job herself,
All dressed up, cute and perk.
1t took war to prove to us
Our grandma's latent power.
She need not take a back seat now
She's WOMAN OF THE HOUR.

CTC's Net $4,000
In Last Two Weeks
Chalk Resumes
Negotiations
With Union

Capital Transit Co. had a net
operating income of $83,755 for
the last half month before it
went out Of business. the Public
Utilities Commission was told
today.
This came as o. Roy Chalk,
who bought out the company on
August is and set it up as D. c.
Transit System. Inc. resumed
negotiations on a new labor con-
tract with the transit workers
union.
The sessions opened under the
guidance Of a three-man 'blue
ribbon" panel of Federal media
tors in the conference room of
the Secretary Of Labor. down the
hall from the national Offices Of
the Federal Mediation and Con.
Citation Service at the Labor
Department Building.
An offer from Mr.. Chalk has
been branded by the union as
totally inadequate" and pro-
vocative." A union mass meet
ling on the issue is slated for 8
pm. Wednesday in Constitution
Hall.
Net Operating Income Shown
Today's financial report. the
first received on the transit sys-
TENS operations since before the
sale, showed a net operating in
come from January l to August
IA of $1.961 .672.81.
Despite this indication Of a
profitable operation, the old
company showed net income
loss of $16,558.60 in the first half
of August, and a total net in
come loss since the beginning Of
the year of $338,073.
This resulted from the COM
lpany's policy of speeding up the
write off for tax purposes Of its
street railway facilities to re-
capture its investment in such
) facilities before it was forced out
Iof business August IA by act Of
Congress.
The etc final accounting wrote
loff $128,861.68 in undepreciated
value of street railway facilities.
Equipment Written OF
During its last year of opera
ton the company wrote of q
total of $4,230,000 on the street
railway equipment, not includ.
: ing streetcars.
The company showed cash as
, sets of $3.50, 650.46 as of the day
!. its franchise died. The utilities
commission has so far received no
financial report from D. c.
Transit.
Mr.. Chalk has told the com.
mission he hopes to have q
financial report on his first half
months operations by November

labor negotiations. Mr.. Chalk
, has been operating under a Is
