In it he gave warning that the Public Service Commission, as the representative of the people, will have to scrutinize the generosity of the Interborough and the Brook- tyn Rapid Transit Company if the city i# to safeguard Its Interests in the dual contracts. By the dual con- tracts the city of New York ls com- mitted to make up any deficits in operating the new ubways “If the fare should be reduced be- low 6 cents, the people of the city would have to make up any deficit that may occur by taxation, wouldn't they?” asked Counsel Frank Moss, “That is about right,’ said Mr. Whitney “So the City, as a partner of the Interborough and the B.

While the Public | N Service Commission was trying to stiffen up those contracts, the people were clamoring for quick action. They passed resolutions demanding action.” Mr, Whitney believed that the mat- tor Of possible increane of wages of employees and of the granting of pensions to employees was cons ered while the dual contracts wera being drawn. ‘Can you give “what interest t pay on its contribution to the cost new railroads?” ." asked Mr, Mosa, sho be $6,000,000 or $8,000,000," “And If that increases the budget, the increased budget is likely Mr. Whitney nodded, “Has the increase in Mr. Shonts's salary (President of the Inter- borough) got bevond a point where tt can be submitted to arbitration?” asked Counsel Smith “No,” replied the witness, Q.
