DECISION DEFERRED ON ONE-MAN CARS Citizens’ Council Seeks Light on Use of Vehicles Elsewhere. ‘Atter delving into the original cost | of one-man cars and the difference in | the expense of operating them, as| against twoman cars, the Citizens'| Advisory Council, meeting at the Dis- | trict Building last night, decided to postpone its decision until information | now being gathered from other cities is received. Edwin S. Hege, a member of the | council, announced that at his sugges- tion the American Automobile Asso- | ciation has sent a questionnaire to au- | tomobile clubs in 100 citles, ask what effect one-man cars have on t fic and safety, whether any have been abandoned after and whether that type of in the congested section of the city or | confined to suburban territory. 163 Cities Use One-Man Cars. Earl V. Fisher, executive secretary of the Public Utilities Commission, who attended the meeting to give the | council the benefit of material col«| lected by the commission, { answer to a question that 16; can cities are using some one-m cars. Ina few of those municipa | he said, the equipment is all of the | one-man type. | | Replying to another aquery, Mr. | Fisher expressed the personal view that the old type of one-man c drag- ged” the lines on which it was used, but that he felt certain the latest type being used on Wisconsin avenue does not slow up the line. The new type car, he explained, accelerates faster after a stop and the automatic rear exit eliminates the necessity of all passengers leaving by the front door. The whole question of the one-man car comes up at this time on the re- quest of the Anacostia Citizens' As- soclation for substitution of the new type for the old on the Anacostia line. | Fisher explained that there are onl: 10 of the old one-man cars on that line now, but the decision of the com- | mission to reroute the Anacostia line up Eleventh street and to run the Brookland line to the wharves will| mean an Increase in service, necess tating use of 19 of the new one-man cars on the Anacostia route. Since the question has been under considera- tion, Fisher explained, the commission has considered the advisability of ap- proving purchase of 30 of the new type cars in order to improve service where one-man cars are used. Answering a series of questions by James G. Yaden, chairman of the council, Fisher said 30 of the new one- man cars would cost $468,000, and that they would replace 17 of the old one- man type and 13 two-man cars. Esti- mating that the substitution of a one- man for a two-man car saves $2,000 & year and pointing out that only 13 of the new cars would replace two-man cars, Mr. Yaden observed that the sav- | ing would be $26,000 a year. { Contends for Service. On the basis of these figures, Mr. Yaden contended it would take the| company 18 years to save the cost of the 30 new cars, without allowing fo* interest on the investment. Yaden asked Fisher if the company needs new cars at this time, irrespective of the change in type, and the latter re- plied in the negative. Mr. Fisher pointed out, however, that the public would get greatly im- proved service by an increase in the Qumber of cars if the pending proposal @ sanctioned. He also pointed out that the company has had a 25 per cent in- crease in patronage on the Wisconsin avenue line since installation of the new type one-man car on that line, Members of the council questioned whether this increase is due entirely to the use of the new one-man car.
