If Public Service Commissioner Lewis Nixon requests @ 10-cent fare on the Interborough and the B. R. T. lines) Mayor Hylan, Comptroller Craig, Aldermanic Président Moran and Manhattan Borough President Dowling are prepared to “laugh him out of court,” to use the expression of one prominent official. “I don't know whether Mr. Nixon referred to me as one of the officials he claims obstructed the work of the Public, Service Commission in the past,” said Comptoller Craig. “It he did mean me I am prepared to answer him.” Another prominent city official, who is a momber of the Board of Estimate, had this to say to-day af- ter readimg that Commissioner Nixon would ask to have the B. R. T. and the Interborough franchises changed 80 as to permit of a 10 cent fare. “If it is true that Mr. Nixon ts going to ask the Board of Estimate to increase fares: I am sorry for him, It seems remarkable that so Wholesome ¥ Sweet one official of high responsibility.

I wonder what Gov, Smith thinks of the Nixon attitude.” = Mayor Hylan, when asked what his attitude would be, said: | “I will oppose an increased tare, | and if the transit corporations refuse | to operate the lines, the city will op- erate them in the interest of the peo- | ple. It was stated in the press yes- | terday that if the Board of Estimate | would not consent te an increased fare, an appeal would be made to the Legislature of 1920 for a law which would take the power out of the hands of the City Administration. “I want to say now that the people shoujd ask the designee of both parties of every Senatorial and As- sembly district before primary day in September if they are for or against an increased ‘fare to the transit corporations of the city, and if they refuse to take a stand against an increased fare they should be opposed in the primary and on Elec- tion day regardless of party affilia- tions. ‘ “I will take an active part in any Senatorial or Assembly district cam- Paign to help defeat any candidate who refuses to take a stand against increased fare. Commissioner Nixon to-day dis- cussed the question in a statement which he gave out at the same time Mayor Hylan issued bis ukase. Com- mission Nixon protested that state- ments he had made had been misconstrued and emphasized that he was, in no sense, answering the remarks of Mayor Hylan.

ORKIN’S: sivonereenner Commissioner Nixon's statement in part follows: “Many versions have been given of what I said in Brooklyn a few days much folly should be concentrated in| ago, in regard to the traction situa- tion, From the point of view and hearing they may have ali been right. However, this is what I intended to say and what I thought I said: “1. That I thought further re- celverships would be bad for the city, State and Nation and that every effort shovid be made to avoid them, “2, That had I been vested with power to adjust fares to meet the situation I should have acted by now. “3. That in any adjustment made there would be give and take from both sides, as no ad- justment could be one sided. “These are briefly the views aA- vanced. Before saying anything else, I wish to make very clear the fact that nothing will be done by me under any circumstances except in co-operation with the Mayor. He is the head of the city government and speaks for the City and certuinly he has my respect and esteem. “Any deficiency in the return the city receives on the investment must be made up from taxes. But the com- “panies ask that their deficiencies be made up by higher fares. Whether the city should pay the carrying charges on its investments out of taxes or increased fares is a matter of municipal policy. If, however, a permagent and equitable settlement of the present situation in all of its phases can be secured through an in- crease in fares and concessions in re- turn on the part of the companies, there exists a compelling reason for such Increase, “If the right to raise fares to meet an emergency exists, whioh right can only now be exercised by the city, it should in turn be assured of the right to reduce them when earnings advance.” ——————_——_.
