Referred to Committee
The committee ended its

the public ownership bill and
its related problems to a sub
committee headed by Senator
Mcnamara, Democrat of Mich
Iigan.
The committee, meanwhile,
still was showing a growing in
terest in the application of Max
M. Kampelman, attorney for
Minneapolis investors, to set up
Ia new all-bus company. despite
his request for a $4-million Gov
eminent loan guarantee to back
stop his financing plans.
Mr.. Kampelman's proposition,
however, was suffering from in
lcreasing difficulty in obtaining
enough buses to get into opera
ton next August Is.
Sees Too Little Time
Speaking last night before the
lL'Enfant Business and Profess
sional Women's Club, Public
Utilities Commissioner Robert
M. Weston said, for example:
mo private operator can get
sufficient buses to replace full
Capital Transit service on Au-
gust IA"
Even the proposed public au-
tthority, he said. would have to
seize all the present CTC system
or operate a reduced amount
of efficient bus service, thus
sparing the transit riders the fu-
iture costs of converting uneco-
nomic streetcar operations"
Otherwise, he warned, "in the
absence of prompt action, we
will have no transit service
whatever on August IA, 1856, or
at any foreseeable time in the
future"

bills, Mr.. Broyhill said he and
