The Martin Bill simply provides that the Public Service Commission and not the Board of Estimate or a similar municipal body shall have the the right to fix fares. The particular paragraph in the law which wouid place municipalities at the tender mercies of Public Service Commiss- jons reads: “Whenever either com- misdion shall be of opinion, after a hearing * * © that the rates, fares, or charges demanded * * © unjust, unreasonable, unjustly discriminatory or unduly preferential, or that the maximum rates, fares or charges are insufficient to yield rea- sonable compensation for the services rendered, and are unjust and unrea- sonable, the Commission shall, with due regard among other things to a reasonable average return upon the value of the property actually used in the public service, and to the ne- cessity of making reservations out of income for surplus and contingencies, determine the just and reasonable tates, fares and charges to be there- after observed and in force as the maximum to be charged for the service to be nerfoued. Notwith- standing a different rate, fare or charge prescribed by any consent, franchise or contract of the local authorities of any city or other politi- cal subdivision of the State, The black-faced type shows the| exact language that would forever di- | vest cities like New York of their! right to regulate fares.
