It seems to have had adroitness enough to steer Mr, | William Barclay Parsons away from any competition with its stumbling, inefficient lines in his latest recommendations, The Rapid Transit Commission will insure legislative inter- ference with its despotic rule if it treats his suggestions seriously and ignores the cry for relief that comes from the residents and taxpayers in the congested, built-up city who pay the bills and who are not speculating in unimproved real estate. Brooklyn shares with New York the lending of credit to construct the New York Subway systems, and has asked nothing heretofore, The Joralemon street tunnel is really a Long Island Railroad enterprise of trifling value in bringing the required re- lief. To spend millions to develope the outskirts of the town while the centre suffers is absurd and not to be permitted at the public cost. The World has pointed out one route that will give relief. There are others that could be planned, but this one is a real necessity. Let the people get behind it and it will come. ‘To Brooklyn’s homes in 15 minutes!” is the cry.
