CTCJu|yIncome
Drops Sharply

The net operating income Of
the old Capital Transit Co. fol
July was nearly two-thirds lower
than the figure for June.
The monthly report of the
company succeeded by D. C
Transit System. Inc, shows
operating income of $139,550 fol
last month compared with $780,
173 for June.
Comparison Of succeeding
months fails to give the best
indication of the company's busi-
ness. The July-June gauge was
applied this year since Capital
Transit was strikebound in July
1885. e
Transit authorities attributed
a major part of the income drop
to the fact that wage increases
of about 6 cents an hour took
effect July / and that operating
revenues continued their steady
skid.
Operating expenses totaled ST.
COL ,239, compared to 81 .489, OBS
in June. Operating revenues
dropped to $2.025,949 from the
June figure of $2,136,258.
Net income from all sources
was in the red $153.985 as op-
posed to the meager figure OF
$7,788 of June.
Passenger volume declined
from 14.7 million to 1879 million
Only streetcar and bus mileage
showed an increase-partly due
to an extra day during July. The
total increase was $4,000 miles.
