Westcott cabs have no taximeters and charge on a basis of fixed sone areas, Their basio charge for the first zone, of about half a mile radius from a station, has been 60 cents tor one or two passengers. The new rates reduce the basic charge to 50 cents In first zone for not exceoding four persona. The new achedule makes the charge from Grand Central to Pennsylvania station 75 cents for one or four per- sons; from Grand Central to Weet Seventy-eecond street, $1.15; from Grand Central to One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street, $2. The joker in the newly prescribed rates lies in the “sanction” to them by the Public Service Commission, For years taxicab companies at ata- tion terminals have endeavored to es- tablish the contention that they were | under the Public Service Commission, so that they might change their own | rates and avoid taking out city M- censos prescribing legal rates.
