BAGKERS OF 7-CENT FARE BILL making himself personal sponsor for all ite provisions, “[ don't think it would be just the proper thing for me to mention the | name of the man who handed me the | bill,” said Mr, Martin, “I happen to |know that attorneys and others in | terested in the New York State Rail- ways, which operates in my section of the State, would like to see the bill passed, There were other railway |men from Buffalo who spoke for the measure, “Were there any lawyers or railway officials from New York City among those who d nsor the 7-cent fare me Assemblyman Martin was id. jo far ae | am aware there were no traction people from New York City present,” he replied, “although | do recall that there were several gentlemen with | whom | wasn't acquainted, “It would be foolish to think that I have any personal interest in the bill, and you can rest assured that every municipal body in the State, as well as every civic soclety and Board of Trade will have ample opportunity to digest its contents. In order that every one interested in the measure may read and study it, the Judiciary | Committee is having 3,000 copies sent broadcas:. No date will be fixed for, & hearing until the bill has been given sufficient publicity.” | Assemblyman Martin's attention | Was called to the fact that the bill he | Sponsored abrogates the 5-cent fare agreements between local municipali- ties on which franchise rights are based. He was asked if he believed this ancient right of cities, towns and even smaller localities should be wiped out “Lam emphatically opposed to gov- | Jernment by commissioners in the, | State of New York," he replied. “But| |the fact remains that we have Public | Service Commissions which are very! l expensive bodies, If they are no| good let us abolish them, If they} fare good, or, if they are going to be! | good, give them power to act.” | “Are the people up-State satisfied with the Public Service vm mission of the Second District?” Mr. Martin was asked. | “There is considerable severe and justifiable criticism of the up-State commission, The most serious fault} of that body is that it chronically suffers from of speed. “Still, we'll have to do some- thing with the traction situation in this State or we'll have munic- ipal ownership.” A ten-minute conversation with Assemblyman Martin would convince almost anyone that he regrets he in- troduced the seven-cent fare bill, and, further, that he doesn't care what happens to it. | An investigation of the records in| the office of Secretary of State Hugo discloses but few “legislative agents” | officially registered in the in- terest of traction lawa, Breed, Ab- bott & Morgan of No. 32 Tdberty Street, Manhattan, are listed as “counsel” for the Interborough Rapid | |Transit Company. Mortimer B. Hof. | |man of No. 85 Clinton Street, Broolte | llyn, is listed * for the} | Brooklyn Heig Company, | the Nassau Ele Rallroad and the Queens County Interurban and Coney | Island lines. Cohn, Chorman Franchot of Ni Ils, and Porter Norton of No t Square, Buf- falo, represent way Company, It is explained by rnational Rail- | State officials | that the registry required by law| doesn't contain one-tenth of the names of real lobbyists. For in- stance, several prominent New York | City bankers came to this city a short time ago and pleaded very hard for seven-cent fares. For some rea- son not yet explained the names of| these distinguished visitors have not yet been disclosed. One prominent | official who was said to have been honored by a visit from at least one of the bankers entered a flat demial when questioned by an Evening | World representative. He referred his questioner to another high oM- clal who had just left town. All of |which proves that the seven-cent | |fare lobby ts working quietly but very effectively.
