A noil of the members of Councils' Fi nance Commltlco today revealed tho fact that tho Vnre members of the committee would be In lino solidly ror Dhcctbr Taylor's rapid tran sit program when Chairman Connelly calls a meeting of tho committee. This, ho an nounced, would be within n few dnjp. Thn McNIchol Councllmcn, It la shown, will bo lined Up solidly against the Tnvlor prosrain lor ruui imuu umion. In political circles It Is generally under- stood that both sldos have received their orders anil that thb fight from now on will be along cicar-cui, uemiuc mita. Backln? Director Taylor will stand Sena tor Vafe with the downtown members of the Finance Committee. On the other tide Senator McNIchol, who came out In the open against tho plan yesterday, will order his men to defy public opinion and throttle the plan. In view of Senator JlcXIchors opposi tion to the Taylor transit program. Senu tor Varo was naked today what his atti tude was on the question. , In reply ho made tho following statemont: "I stand exactly where I have always stood-ln favor of rapid transit, and I want to seo It .worked out In the best and quickest way." There are six Va're men. on the Finance Committee. There are 17 McNIchol men on the Fi nance Committee, thouoh one, of his fol lowers Intimated today that he would vote to report the bill out of committee. This means that unless an. aroused pub lic forces the McNIchol men to disre gard the order of their chief the Taylor iplan will not be considered at the Fi nance Commltteo meeting, that It will remain In "pickle," or that a compro mite, the result of which will be only to deliy the plan, will, be effected.

The threat of a higher tax rato 1b a 'neV device. , which Senator Mc.NJqb.ol' wJH use, In his attempt , to frighten tho people away from' supporting- Director Taylor's transit plans. The, Senator figures out that tho ad ditional city debt tp provide funds for transit' development, and other Improve ments would necessitate an Incrcaso from ll.CO, the present tax' rate, to $2.50. This will be the basts of his argument against the Taylor plan when the Com mittee on Municipal 'Corporations of the State Senate, .of which Senator Varo Is chairman, holds a public hearing on the Constitutional amendment In the Finance Committee's room tomorrow afternoon. Political observers pplnted out signifi cantly hat the alignment of tho two tides is virtually the samo as It was in the last bitterly contested mayoralty campaign.
