Complete Publicity This A'ssociation has done everything in its power to insure COMPLETE PUBLICITY ABOUT THE , “SERVICE AT COST” BILL. On the very day it was introduced I personally sent to every daily newspaper in the State and practically every weekly paper a complete analysis of the bill. This analysis was also furnished to the newspaper correspondents at Albany, to the Associated Press and other press associations. In New York City this analysis was furnished to both the news and editorial departments of all the daily papers. On the following day I sent to every newspaper in New York City a complete copy of the bill and notified all of the other dailies in the State that upon request I would also furnish to them a complete copy. Since that time I have sent out several hundred such copies to newspaper and to civic associa- tions, as well as more than 30,000 copies of the analysis of the bill. New York Electric Railways Association Edward A. Maher, Jr., President About Street Car Service At Cost To the Public: “SERVICE-AT-COST” franchise has been introduced in the Assembly, It is not fair to call it an “increased fare” bill. It is not a “cost-plus” bill. It is a “FLEXIBLE FARE” bill, under which fares are automatically lowered, as weJl as increased, to meet the actual cost of service, including a ——. fair return upon the investment, based upon a valuation by an impartial Board of Appraisal, The bill provides that after six months, if the Cities do not agree upon a service at cost plan the Public Service Sanieson shall then— BUT NOT UNTIL THEN—have the power to fix reasonable rates, notwithstanding 5-cent fare provisions in franchises or ot agree- ments with the Cities, Such a franchise ac- complishes these things: i er = ———— 1—It assures continuous good service, under the City’s own supervision. ' 2—It recognizes HOME RULE, for under it the City’s full rights and powers are preserved, for the City (not the Public Service Commissions), would regulate the quality and quantity of service. ee mem 3—It settles the fare question, and settles it justly, once and for all. This is the kind of a franchise under which Cleveland operates, and under which, until re- cently, cash fares were $ cents, It has also been Take the Street Car Fare Problem Out of Politics New York Electric Railways Association Edward A.
