HE INTERBOROUGH BULLETIN is a publication in which | New York’s transit despot reminds itself each month of its virtues and perfections. The latest number contains a touch- ing chapter on “travel conscience” which makes a ead and gentle Sppeal to the wayward person who holds back his nickel or chafes at his strap. On high moral grounds most of us admit that we ought to pay to ride—even on the Interborough. Most of us do. But the article | in question presents such edifying instances of awakened conscience | in sinful travellers, combined with such noble forbearance and Ches- terfieldian courtesy on the part of Interborough employees, that it is @ pity anybody who missed seeing these things should not hear of them. For instance: A woman with six children, ranging im age from five years up, boarded a surface car in Manhattan for Brooklyn at the beginning rush hour and took seats. When the conductor came fares the chaperon of the party handed him a dime— herself and the eldest—she regarding all the others as experienced eye over the brood and said: have another dime for these two,” desig- the hand two of the youngsters whose ages et thirteen and fourteen respectively. law in the case, the woman nodded her ap- the “other dime.” this beautiful ecene.

What can we do in return? We can go on paying our nickels, standing on one another's feet, and fighting for epace and air. The Interborough will go on jamming us into ite care, hooking us on to its straps, and crushing us in ite doorways. It will go on paying extra two per cent. dividends, like the one this week, in addi- tion to its regular yoarly dividend of ten per cent. It will go on earning as high as twenty per cent. on its capital stock. It will go on as the city’s pet transit monopoly with privileges guaranteed. ‘And it will go on getting away with it ali—oh, eo politely! ee weer aes “Stover Again Loses His Park Architect” is a pathetic headline.
