All the time the taxicab companies thought they were buying $500,000 worth of eccurity for their narrow policy of greed and extortion, that $500,000 was actually buying their own shame and undoing. They believed they were protecting their inter- cata, They were really providing for their downfall. How little it pays! Years ago the railroads tried the same game. They stuffed the pockets of Governors and Legislators with passes, they provided private cars and costly junketing trips for Gov- ernment officials, they squandered millions in buying favor and “pro- jection.” And in the end?

The “eweet old-fashioned girl” sat ‘round and just massaged her face, too colossal.

Taxicab companies in this city are in for a lard and bitter lesson. We hope they will learn it once and for all. For any corporation that S expects to do business by serving the public, buying protection and sy privilege does not pay. Tho beet protection a taxicab company can have is the steady confidence and friendliness of ita paying patrons. Ite best claim to that protection is low retes and good service.
