Users Conference said.
The highway groups earlier
had complained to key Con-
gressional groups that propos-
ais for a 98-mile rail transit
system, costing around $500
million, were unrealistic. 1t said
that claims the subway sys-
tenn would make key highways
and bridges unnecessary were
not valid.
Yesterday the highway con-
ference said it hoped the new
subway proposals would lend
the log jam holding up high
way construction"
Study Is Scheduled
Last Wednesday, Represent
alive Whitener, Democrat OF
North Carolina, proposed the
1913 mile subway-rail system
which would cost around $40O
million.
Mr.. Whitener is in a key spot
to serve as an arbitrator in the
fierce dispute between rail
transit supporters and highway
groups because he is chairman
of the House District subcom-
mittee considering legislation
to permit construction of a
transit system. His subcommit-
tee is to meet Wednesday to
study the latest proposal.
The local highway users con-
ference, which is composed Of
80 business and professional
groups which have special in
terests in highway construc-
ton, announced their latest
position in a letter to Mr..
Whitener. The letter said:

Represent a tive Patman,
Democrat of Texas, made the
charges in a report filed with a
House Small Business subcom-

"The proposal is worthy Of
serious consideration, but 1t
must be kept in mind that
the freeway program is still

Highway Action Urged
The letter pointed out that
the question of whether the
north leg Of the Inner Loop
and the Three Sisters Island
bridge should be built was still
unresolved because of the
nsit-highway dispute.
Any action taken by Con-
greSs to solve District tranSpor-

letter said. I'VE hope your
proposal will end the contro-

because there can no longer
be any doubt as to the urgent
need to complete the freeway
system"
Andrew w. johnson, chair

signed the letter which was
approved after a poll Of men,

In related action, a District

Taxicab Zone
End Is Studied
P. U. c. EvoIuutine
Mileage System
By DAN GOTTLIEB
Star Staff Writer

Scrapping of the Districts
taxicab zones for a mileage
system of computing fares is
receiving serious conSidera-
ton" by the District Public
Utilities Commission.
This was learned yesterday
from District Engineer Com
missioner Charles M. Duke. a
member of the three-man regu-
latory agency. There is some
disagreement among the men,
bers Of the agency on whether
the mileage system is banned
by a congressional appropria-
tons rider, however.
The rider, which has been on
the Districts money bills since
the early 1930s, bars the P. U. c.
from spending any money to
prescribe anything other than
system Of uniform zones and
fares" Originally the rider spe-
officially banned take meters.
The system being discussed
would set fares according to the
distance Travelled as measured
by a taxi's standard automobile
odometer, the mileage recorder
Just below the speedometer
Under the present zone system,
the fare is set according to how
many fixed zone boundary lines
are crossed.
Airline Device Offered
None Of the commissioners
would say whether they have
made up their minds on the
system. Vice-chairman Edgar
H. Bernstein said he thought
the rider prevents adoption Of
the use of odometers. However,
he thinks an airline distance
measuring device proposed by
one independent taxi driver.

sidered.
