runsit Suit
On Fare Rise

District Court Judge F. Dick
inson Let's has taken under
advisement a suit brought by
D. c. Transit System against
the Public Utilities Commits
sion seeking a further increase
in transit fares.
At the same time, the Judge
dismissed q suit brought by five
individuals. including four law
yers and an economic analyst,
who sought to set aside fare
increases put into effect last
March. At that time cash fares
were raised to Is cents but the
price Of tokens remained at five
for 81. This latter suit, like
the first one, was in the nature
Of an appeal from the commits
sion's decision.
The suit brought by D. c.
Transit System asks that the
price of tokens be raised from
81 for f1ve to $1.10 for five.
Both the transit system and
the commission seek summary
judgments in their favor.
Attorney Harvey M. Spear on
Wednesday argued before Judge
Let's in behalf of the transit
system that the Public Utilities
Commission, as a matter of law,
should have granted the system
an increase which would have
allowed it a 5.48 per cent return
on gross operating revenue. In
stead. it got only a 4.10 per cent
margin by the increase of last
March. he said.
Mr.. Spear contended that the
transit system under its fran
chise and according to Con-
gress' intent is entitled to a
return of 6.5 per cent to make
it attractive to investors.
