TAYLOR TKLLS STORT
tr.r. Is Mr. Taylor's own account of
C. nr.ipM and determined fight to give
the people of our city better transit fa
cilities:
n Mav 27. 1912. Mayor Blankenburg
IiBPOlnted me City Transit Director with
Instructions to investigate with a view
of determlnng advisable means for ob
taining rapid, efficient and cheap transit
throughout the city. He nsked for a re
port, covering such investigation with rec
ommendation of ways and means to pro-
curt rapid transit commensurate with
present and future needs of tho city and
Its tuburbs.
"Accordingly. I assembled a complete
ergsnuatlon of specialists, trained In tho
Various tecnnicai unco uivuicu, uuu jjiu
ceedea with the undertaking. On July
u his. I filed with the Mayor my re
port and recommendations.
To ascertain the general locations
where additional transit facilities are
prenntly and prospectively required for
the proper service, accommodation and
convenience of the traveling public, was
t most complex task. First, wo charted
the exact location of the city's population
of 1814 In a specially prepared map of
Philadelphia. This map was divided Into
traffic sections, generally ono mile square,
and In these sections were placed the rec
ords of the population in units or iw,
aeh expressed by a dot. Upon this map
all of the existing transportation lines
were also drawn, showing the relation or
these lines to tho city's population.
SCIENTIFIC STUDY.
"We next developed a completo survey
th nnlnt.i nf nrluln and destination of
tall traffic flowing by way of the existing
lines upon a normal business day. we
showed the number of passengers orlgl-
patlns In each traffic section and the
number of rides per capita In and out of
etch traffic section. To express this traf
fic flow throughout the entire city 113 ad
ditional maps were prepared, or one map
tor each traffic section as a base, showing
the flow from such traffic section to each
per tne otner irainc sections.
L "Our Inquiry then took the form of
Itlme required and cost of travel between
bcacn iraiuc secuun uuu eucii uiuer iruiuu
flection' by means of the existing facilities.
BThe areas available for future residential
development were charted, the water
areas, public 'parks and cemeteries being
Included. We also estimated with care
the future growth of the population or
the city and projected its probable dls-
Jgtributlon as nearly as possible.
P.LANS FOR NEEDED LINES.
'AH this done, we thereupon laid out
sew transit facilities needed to supple
ment the existing lines, and to relieve the
congestion and Inconvenience due to slow
epeea necessarily maintained on the sur
face roads. Only lines were projected that
were needed and duo consideration waa

had for the existing lines. We estimated
the amount of tramo diverted from tho
old surface roads to tha new hlgh-speel
lines, and proved that ultimately the latter
would bo the gainer, for with more) travel
and more peopTe for the long haul there
would bo a corresponding Increase In the
travel and people for the short haul.
"Having developed accurately the
amount of traffic which the new lines
would get. then, with knowledge of tho
characteristics of travel between the dif
ferent tramc sections, train schedules were
laid out to serve that travel. The number
of car miles and car hours to be operand
was calculated, and the unit cost of tha
various Items entering Into the operation,
including power and rolling stock, was es
timated The construction costs and fixed
charges also were calculated; In fact, our
study of tho whole problem was complete.
? '"Eluded location, character, cost,
traffic, gross earnings, cost of operation,
fixed charges and net result."
Defore filing his report, Mr. Taylor had
to obtain changes In the laws of Penn
ajlvanla. This legislation Included: (1)
An act empowering cities of the first
class to purchase, lease, locate, construct
and equip, or otherwise acquire transit
facilities, and to own, maintain and use
and operate the same: (2) a supplement
to the Bullitt bill, creating a department
of city trunslt to have control, charge
nnd management of the transit facilities
of a city of the -first class; and (3) an
act to provide revenue for city and county
purposes, Imposing taxes upon certain
classes of personal property.
UNDAUNTED BT ILLNESS.
Mr. Taylor did not relate how ho had
left a sickbed. Journeyed to Harrlsburg.
while suffering from typhoid fever, and
pleaded personally with the then Gov
ernor Tcner to sign tho bills passed by
tho Legislature. He succeeded In getting
tho executive signature to tho bills, so
necessary for the larger development of
the high-speed transit plans.
Funds for tho preliminary work and the
Initial contracts were obtained from
Councils only through the display of mas
terly tact by Mr. Taylor. Ho quite out
maneuvered the ring In control of tho
local legislate e body.
"On March 8, 1915. Councils, at our re
quest, approved the holding of a special
election to obtain the assent of tho elec
tors to an Increase In the city's Indebted
ness of 16,000,000 for the storting of ac
tual subway construction. It was In the
work of getting Information of tho need
of the new high-speed lines before the
public that the Department of City Transit
owes Its debt of gratitude to patriotic
nowspapers of Philadelphia. The special
election was held on April 23, 1915, and
rapid transit won out by a vote of 81,615
as against 9110.
"Two ordinances subsequently wero
passed by Councils. One appropriated
$3,000,000 for the construction work on tho
Broad street subway, and ono appropri
ated on equal amount for the Frankford
line. Both ordinances were npproved on
July 2. 1915, and tho Department of City
Transit Immediately advertised for bids."
Before Mr. Taylor let the contracts
there came across hla path that familiar
obstruction, the "taxpayer's suit." Here
the Director of City Transit carried his
portmanteau to City Solicitor Michael J.
Ryan. Ho begged tho City Solicitor to
help him clear away this last barricade.
Mr. Taylor, commenting upon his recep
tion and subsequent developments, said:
"I want to say that, when It camo to the
pinch, I found Mr. Ryan true blue In the
city's Interests. No sooner did Mr. Ryan
defeat this final obstruction In the courts
than I let the first Contracts, and on Sep
tember 11, 1915, saw the actual start of
digging the new subways. Hats off to
Mr. Ryan. Ho was at his post when he
was most needed."
PRAISE FOR HELPING.
Concerning tho support he had received
along the way In his great three-year
fight Mr. Taylor said: "Only a small man
would glvo niggardly praise to such sup
port as I have received. Men have risen
above partisan feeling In the,' successive
steps taken to this public benefit. Let
mo put It this way: I have had the most
hearty and generous support of Mayor
Blankenburg and all his department
heads, which Is understood; of tho best
elements In Councils: of Mr. Ryan, the
City Solicitor; of Governor Tener, and of
members of the Legislature. All were
needed; and, without the help of any one
of these men at the time I sought their
aid, nothing would have been accom
plished. I make full acknowledgments."
The future of the comprehensive plan
for rapid-transit, which Includes the de
livery loop, the construction of lines to
Darby and Roxborough, Mr. Taylor de
clares, largely hinges on thai passing of
tho constitutional amendment this fall.
He says a favorable vote will unshackle
Philadelphia financially, and provide the
'necessary funds for all the new high
speed lines, and the delivery loop as well.
TRUSTS IN VOTER8.
"I venture the average citizen will sea
the vital importance of having the right
sort of a man In City Hall to administer
the future," he concluded. "I do not
favor an Independent operator for the
71 ew lines, unless tho management of
tho existing lines refuses to deal fairly
by the city. But there should be no tom
foolery; nothing short of a Joint use of
the old surface system and the now high
speed lines for one -cent fare strikes me
as equitable. And the city should be
safe-guarded so as to share in the
certain profits of the new lines, provided
they all are built, and nono eliminated,
for to clip off here, and add on there, is
going to paralyze tho city's chances of
driving a good bargain with the man
agement of the existing transit lines,"

BISHOP SAYS SUNDAY
AND WAR AID CHURCHES
Reformed Synod of City Opens 85th
Annual Council
The European war and tho "nilly"
Sunday campaign aro the prime causes
for the Increased membership of the
churches durinr the last year, according
to Dlahop Robert li. Rudolph, of New
York, who presided at the tSth annual
council of the Now York and Philadel
phia Synod of tho Reformed Episcopal
Church, which Is being- held at the Bishop
Nicholson Church, 10th and Rockland
streets, Logan.
More than 300 delegates from New York,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware,
Maryland and Virginia were present at
the openlntr session today.
In making- his annual report, Bishop
Rudolph said that tho church had never
known such a romarkablo Increaso In
membership as durlnc the last year. The
normal Increase, he said. Is i per cent.,
but the year's work shows an Increase of
16 per cent., and ono church reported
that It had doubled Its membership.
A missionary rally will bo held tonight
and tho sessions will bo cqntlnucd tomorrow.
WAR ON CARNIVAL GAMBLING
Polico to Stop "Pnddlo Wheels."
Husbands Say Wives Waste
Money
Gambling devices nt street carnivals
will be raided by the police, Director of
Public Safety Drlpps said this aftornoon.
A stringent campaign against gambling
at such places has been ordered. Gam
bling booths nt one street carnival were
closed last night.
"New York promoters have been man
aging carnivals In this city, making their
profits from the gambling revenue In the
form of tho 'paddle-wheel' game and
other devices," said tho Director. "We
took action after receiving many com
plaints, some from husbands declaring
their wives squandered mony by gam
bling; others from wives, telling how
their husbands wasted money. Chari
table Institutions complained that they
were obliged to caro for children whose
parents spent money nt tho devices at
the carnivals. Altogether lt became ap
parent that the gambling carried on at
street carnivals was a great evil. Wo nre
going to blot It out."
