JHE most hideous and unnecessary noise that tortures the nerves of New Yorkers has long been and is atill the ear-splitting screech emitted from faulty brakes and unoiled curves on , surface and elevated car lines. An Evening World reader ‘To the Editor of The Evening World: About « year ago—I think it was in September or October, 1913—you agitated the subject of the terrible screeching of car ‘wheels. I remember one editorial especially in which you were strong in bringing {t to the attention of our so-called Public Service Commission. A couple of months after that you forced the Commission to,onfer car companies to use braking shoes of a kind that would prevent: all noise. But so far as I can hear, the com- panies have done nothing—es usual. Can you not again take up this matter? It certainly will ewaken that heavy body. My home in Brooklyn is near a curve and this summer my children were disturbed in their sleep every time a car made the turn, generally at fifteen minute intervals. I have spoken to severa) motormen about this nerve-rack- ing noise. They tell me that the railroad company has some care equipped with noiseless braking shoes, and that it is only & question of a little extra expense. Please help sick and nervous pedple. ARTHUR L.
