CITIZENS PROTEST HIGHER CARFARE Sixteenth Street Group Give Five Reasons to Utili- ties Body. Striking at the proposal of the Cap- $tal Transit Co. for fare increases, the Sixteenth Street Citizens’ Association has filed a protest with the Public Util- ities Commission citing five reasons why the request should not be granted. Instead of increased fares the Capital Transit Co., through its recent acquisi- tion of the Washington Rapid Transit Co., should now be able to furnish ad- ditional service at less cost to the pub- lic, it was stated in the letter, signed by Arthur E. Cook, president, to the Public Utilities Commission. Reroutings Incomplete. Reroutings called for in the merger of the two companies have not been completed, it is asserted, hence there is no way of telling at this time what the cost of operation, as compared to reve- nue, will be. It is the opinion of that | body the gross operating revenue of the eompany will be greatly increased by persons now using other means of transportation. Comparisons made in hearings be- fore the commission relative to the difference in costs paid by cash pa- | trons and users of the $1 passes, | which the company wants to drop. have been without sufficient knowledge | on the part of Capital Transit officials, $he letter asserts. Prospect of Loss. If the $1 passes are discontinued the eompany will lose revenues by persons now riding for short distances only, since these persons would walk rather than pay the single fare demanded, the letter says. A close check should be made to Wvoid unnecessary expenditures, such as additional overhead and unneces- sarily high salaries before granting any increase in fares the association holds. | Traffic Convictions 1 FIRST-OFFENSE SPEEDING.

Artist’s Life ¢ THE EVENING ‘Pretty Fine” Agriculture Department Chief Scientific Illustrator Has Lots to Do. horticultural products and romantic murals, Royal C. Steadman, after 20 years as a Gov- ernment artist, thinks life is pretty fine, especially if you work under civil service. Steadman’s job is chief scientific illustrator in the United States De- partment of Agriculture, but he man- ages to do considerable work on the outside. In fact, he’s just been com- missioned by a local bank to do a AINTER of wax fruit models P and landscapes, skatches of ‘To be done from a small copy of the celebrated “Abduction of Poca- hontas,” by J. L. Gerome Ferris, the canvas will be Steadman’s most im- portant work to date. It will be done outside of office hours, of course. As an artist, Steadman upsets a lot of theories, because he’s 5o jovial, and doesn’t seem the least bit tempera- mental. Of Friendly Nature.

Originally hailing from New Eng- land, there are traces of the Yankee twang still in his voice and his laugh crackles. Behind Steadman’s desk in the Agri- culture South Building is & case of fruit models—luscious pears, oranges, apples, plums and so on—that look good enough to eat. On the walls watercolor and oil prints of horticul- tural objects are reminiscent of the allure of a seed catalogue, which isn't a fair comparison, by the way, since they are grades above catalogue illus- trations from an artistic point of view. Steadman, it developed, has con- tributed quite a lot to the perfection of fruit models since his invention of & process which duplicates the exact weight of the original, and prevents breakage and a tendency to cave in it was put under a public service pat- ent in May, 1932, 3,000 Models in Office. In all, his office holds some 3,000 such models which are used by em- ployees in identifying fruits for farm- ers all over the country. His sketches also are used for the same purpose and to illustrate Government bullztins. Starting out as & commercial artist, Steadman won several first prizes be- fore he entered the Government serv- ice. At the outbreak of the war he was head designer for a jewelry firm but voluntarily resigned when that line went to pieces. “For & while, after T got in the Government, I used to wonder how the jewelry business was coming along,” he said, “and then I just stop- ped thinking about it. “I used to be ambitious to do some- and three meals a day, beat living in & garret.” He laughed. “Then I get to eat the fruit—it it's any good—after I get through work- ing with it,” he added cheerfully. FARM “EQUALITY” PLANK OUTLINED Stand Pledges Continuation of Soil Fertility Efforts, Paper Says. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, June 25—The Philadelphia Record said yesterday that the following farm plank, work- ed out by Secretary Wallace, Chester C. Davis, the former A. A. A. ad- ministrator, and Senator Wagner, was administration’s efforts to obtain equality for agriculture through co- operation with the States in measures designed to build soil fertility. “We pledge to work for expansion of the domestic outlet for farm prod- ucts through increases in consumer purchasing power by providing for re-employment and used wages in in- dustry that will permit & higher stand- ard of living. “We pledge assistance within Fed- eral powers in balancing production with prospective demands of Amer- fean consumers on a basis of abun- dance and with available foreign markets tal into consideration.” Strikes Held Plots.
