Se “VOLUME 48 nis RES Be GOV. HUGHES'S VETO. OV. HUGHES'S veto of the Coney Island Five-Cent Fare bill is an ac- cusation of specitic neglect of duty against the Public Service Commis- sion of this district. As the Gover- nor truly says “whether a five-cent fare is a fair one depends upon facts,” and a just result can “be reached only after the facts have been ascertained and considered.” That is the very thing the Public Service Commission was created for —to ascertain and consider the facts, and, again using the Governor’s language, “to provide for an investiga- tion in which the whole subject can be considered and a result just both to the corporations and the public arrived at.” Last year when the Governor vetoed the two-cent a mile fare bill the public generally concurred with his reason that the public service bill would provide a like result in a fairer and more scientific manner. Therefore the Public Service Commissions bill was passed, and the Governor appointed the Public Service Commissions, one dealing with up the State matters and the other with its jurisdiction in New York City. The up-State Commission is doing quite well. Several of its members have brains, all of them have ordinary intelligence, and none of them has So far shown any fear of Wall street or of predatory capital.
