Mayor Hylan to-day callod upon Corporation Coufise! Furr to dovine some means of blocking Publid Ser- vice Commissioner Nixon from an “obsession to grant increase of fares on the slightest provocation.” The Mayor's letter follows: “Evidently cheered by the success of the North Shore ‘Traction Com- pany in having its fare incteased, the Manhattan and Queens Traction Company now announces that it is about to apply to Public Service Commiasioner Nixon for an order permitting it to increase its fare and charge eight cents or ten cents car- fare/ notwithatandig its frachise con- traet with the city: requires that no more than five oents shall be eharged fot a continuous ride on its railway. “Increase of fate really #eems to have become an obseasioh with the Public Bervice Commissioner and he is apparently prepared to mrant an application of this character on the slightest provocation. “You will remember he had not been appointed more than twenty- four hours before he commenced to tell in the public press of the neces- sity which he thought existed for helphg the poor traction compatics, and Maid he was determned not to s ; 1919. pare ae" JUNIOR LEAGUE MEMBER wot!
