Mr.. Reuss said he got this

an investigation.
The Wisconsin lawmaker told
the department that four manu-

BY AL ALIBRANDO

A congressional study of the
taxicab industry here, expected
to be released this week is GER
tain to stir UP further contro-
versy among cab owners and
operators.
One of the recommendations
in the report is replacement OF
the zone fare system with me-
tered fares. When this leaked
out. one faction in the cab in
dustry said, I'VE don't want
meters" Others want meters and
the entire industry from drivers
to fleet owners back increased
rates. one way or another.
The meter-zone controversy
may have to take a back seat,
however, because of demands for
la housekeeping in the taxi in
dustry and new, simplified. strin-
gent regulation of the business.
See Responsibility Avoided
The Washington Criminal JUS
tice Association yesterday called
for such measures in a report
which described the present sys-
tenn as one of chaos and con-
fusion" in which operators and
fleet owners avoid responsibility
to the public.
The associations report, made
after two years of study, said ii
had found reports of cabs being
used for picking up numbers slips
and other gambling, peddling
narcotics and bootlegging.
Character requirements are not
tough enough. the association
contends and reported that "in-
Idividuals with gambling convic-
lions include not only hackers
but fleet owners and at least one
officer of a cab-owning COM
pany."
Ownerships Disguised
Ownership Of cabs, added the
report. is hidden in a maze of
|technicalitieS.
This is due to the fact that
although the vehicles are titled
in the name of one company
and are operated under colors of
another company" said the re-
port.
