Alvin W. Krech, President of the table Trust Company, and chair- of the stockholders’ protective jttee of the Manhattan Rail- y Company, voiced his approval the transit plan to-day, Mr. Krech was the principal wit- at the morning session before Transit Com sion. Of the pro- transit plan he said in part: “In my opinion the setup of the nization in the direction of the rious companies proposed to be med under the plan outlined is ind; I think it is essential for the ‘oper protection of all interests, I ink the successful oycration of the Ian wll depend to a verv lange ex- it upon the valuations which are and upon what the commigsion ines to be a fair return upon h valuations. “It is clear that in order to bal- ce the budget of the transportation tem, two things must be done: ther an increase In the revenue, @ possible decrease in the facili- | tee offered there In a third element introduced, |which is revajuation of the prop- erties and a possible saving of fixed charges under such revaluation. You are confronted with a very large | problem, you know—the balancing of | some $26,000,000,"" Mr. Krech did not approve the barometer fund phase of the plan, because ite exhaustion would result in an Inereaned fare. Speaking specifically about the Manhattan Bievated stockholders and their attitude toward the plan, Mr. Krech sald: “Offhand, 1 should say that they would have given that matter very serious consideration before they ap- proved any such plan of reduction of thelr return, We have a contract running over a period of 999 years on @ property which since the time the contract waa made has under the lease received from the lessee $75,000,000, “It hax earned over operating ex- pennes, taxes and ite fixed charges on its funded debt in that same period something over $90,000,000. It has been @ profitable operation for the lessee, und has made $16,000,000 on the con- \ract in the inst eighteen years, To be sure, we are temporarily in a jam where our earnings are not sufficient te pay, but we have to make @ very cirefu! analysis of what the future earning power of that property would Now, under this plan. be before we can answer that intelli. gently.” Before Mr. Krech left the stand, Chairman McAneny stated that the THE EVENING WORLD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1921. Manhattan Etevated for the fiscal FIND SAILOR KIT year ending June 21, showed a it of $5,694, increane 0 585 over the year, Tne ted not only failed to earn the 1 per cent. guaranteed dividends on its stock, but showed an additional deficit of $1,300,000, In eightee: » Mr. Krech sald, the I. KR. T. 5,000,000 out of the Manhattan roperty, which eauned Clarence J. shearn to remark “The trouble is they have disburs\d {tall in dividends.” This drew George L. Murray, coun- sel tor Krech, to hin feet. He said: “Lam not going into that, Judge | } Shearn, That ls, of course, true, But what I mean Is this: were fo lease at all, and the hattan were on Its own, it would to-day have paid its bonded interest, {ts 7 per cent, dividend and would have $15,000,000 In it» pocket.” William Greenough,*a lawyer rep- resenting @ protective committee of the South Ferry Railroad bondholders, said he was doubtful about the will- ingness of bondholders to make an- othe sacrifices. “The sacrifices they fave already made are very great,’ he said. John L. Wells, speaking for the I. R. T. bondholders’ protective com- mittee, said the proposed tractioa plan “is the right thing.” Samuel EB, Morrow, Vice President and Secretary of the Fifth Avenue Coach Company, produced reports which showed the revenues from op- eration in 1921 to be $5,198,936, a net corporate gain for the year of $1,117,- 125. For the year ending June 30, 1921, the buses carried 51,237,442 pas- sengers at a cost per passenger of 8.38 cents. Had the fare been 5 cents in- stead of 10 the deficit would have been $1,415,757.
