Tho report Is ngnln In tho hands of Director Twining, tlic mayor having sent It back for minor changes, which will make It less technical In phraseology. Tlie changes requested by the mayor, however, will not affect the general rec ommendations contnlncd In the report and nro designed only to make It more easily understood when It Ii flnnlly given to tho public. The report will bo sent to tho printers as soon an Director Twining has completed the minor relsinnt nnd will bo mado public Immediately attenvard. Just before lea ng for the youth the Mayor reiterated his statement that he would be governed by tho wishes of the people In tho final disposition of tho transit problem Ho expressed his belief again, however, that the public would be satlsllcd when all the details of Director Twlnlng's recommcndntlons nro under stood. Members ot the All-Philadelphia Transit I.cngue, commenting on tho Mayor's dec laration that tho transit plan will bo de termined by tho wishes of tho public, called attention to the fnct thnt the pub Ho nlrcady had gone on record as favor ing tho comprehensive Taylor plan by an enormous majority when It voted for the first transit loan, which carried tho Tay lor plan In the ballot explanation ot the purposes ' f tho loan. It was asked whether tho Mayor wanted the voters to continue to go on record for the Taylor plan forever after they had once expressed their wilt overwhelmingly. "Jlemcmber the gas works uprising nnd revolt," ono member of tho leaguo said, significantly. The Mayor hopes that by tho time ho returns fiom the South public sentiment will have crystallzed on tho mntter of the Twining plans and steps will bo taken immediately to proceed with the plans for construction. In splto ot the appeal of Mayor Smith and Director Twining for tlio public to suspend judgment until the detailed plans hae been published, business organiza tions In nil sections ot tho city are In dorsing tho original Taylor plan. Instead ot the Twining recommendations. A resolution piotestlng against cur tailments hi the Itroad street subway plans. Introduced by Select Councilman Ulrlch, ot the 42d Ward, was unanimously adopted by the Logan Improvement Leaguo last night. There are 1300 mem bers In tho league. The league "lgornusIy and earnestly" protests against cutting off the proposed subway at ISrle avenue. Instead ot run ning It to Olncy avenue. As a result of the proposals of cx-Dlrector Taylor, It was said, which called for tho subway to end at Olncy iinciiuo. plans were mado for the development of much land nnd the erection of thousands of dwellings In North Philadelphia, Logan.
