of Taylor Plan Foes, Says
Pujblic Ledger
PUBLIC OPINION STRONG
Throo Philadelphia inornliiK papers nml
bno nftcrnoon paper dlccus the transit
victory in odltorlols today Ily throe t!ir
result of the meeting estcrlny Is halleil
ns nn ovcrwliolmlnR victory for the tax
payers of tho city, and by the fourth the
Stayer Is Bcorcd for his Insistence upon
changes In tho plans under Pity Hall
Neither tho Press nor the North Ameri
can mado nny editorial mention of the
transit question
Tho I'unMC I.EDcirjn hns this to say edi
torially under the heading, "Tho Transit
Conspiracy Laid Bare":
"If there remains In tho mind of a slnglo
disinterested taxpavcr or oter In Phila
delphia a doubt as to the sinister purposes
behind tho attempt to destroy the Taj lor
rapid transit plans, that doubt must lmvo
been rcmoed by tho revelations at yes
terday's meeting of Uio Pittance fommit
too of Councils It was there shown, bv
tho admissions of Dliector Twlnlnc, that
the changes In the rapid transit plnns
embodied In the so called TulnhiK report
vvero made after secret conferences with
tho president of the Philadelphia Itapid
Transit Company
Under normal conditions there would
be nothing significant about a conference
between municipal officials and the offi
cers of the Itapid Transit Company, but
as those conferences Immediately pre
ceded the promulgation of nn nm.iKingly
revolutionary report, recommending radi
cal alterations In tho city's program for
rapid transit, changes which would hao
inn do It Impossible for the city to deal
with nny corporation sao that which al
ready possesses exclusive control over tho
city's transportation system, tho enormity
of tho betrayal of tho cltv's Intel ests be
comes only too apparent The one supteme
vlrtuo of tho Tnlor plan Is that, whllo
It deals Justly with the Itapid Transit
Company, It unites the Interests of tho
city paramount, nnd gives It the Inestl
mablo ndvnntngc of position in treating
with the company for an opeintlng agree
ment. To surrender that position would
have been a shameless hctrnval of the
city to n corpoiatlon which, whatever its
present good Intentions, cannot escape
from that deep popular distrust tho reeds
of which are sown with tho stolen and
juggled leases, watered htock and evaded
obligations that aro tho foundation on
which It Is built.
" Tho Major has probably
found out by this time what the people
want. It would have been bettor for him
had ho led tho van In acceding to that
demand. Instead of posing befmo the com
mlttco nnd tho public ns the facllo instal
ment of tho Itapid Transit Company.
Tho Inquirer has this to say, editorially:
After nil, public opinion Is powerful In
tho city of Philadelphia It hi3 demanded
tho Taylor plans for rapid transit and ap
parently has got them
Wo say appal ently, becauso when sturdy
opponents of a proposition all of a sudden
tumhlo over each other In their haste to
outrival Its friends, thero Is always
ground for somo suspicion If. hidden
nwny In tho Lennon amendment to tho
loan bill thero Is n snnlte, It will appear
In good time. Hut wo prefer to think
that nothing underhand Is contemplated.
Many w colts havo been worse thnn wast
ed becauso of tho suspension of work
while Ulrcctor Twining hns been tearing
In pieces tho very plans which ho helped
to make Now lot us havo dono with nil
this fooling Slnco tho Finnnco Commit
tee has voted unanimously to sustnln tho
Taj lor plnns, it Is taken for granted that
Councils will acqulesco. Let tho order,
therefore, bo given by tho Maj'or to pro
ceed with tho work Let bjgones bo by
gones and let peace prevail
Under the caption "Major or Knglneer,"
tho Ilecord saj's In part, eilitoil illy
llcally It Is a bit of Impertinence for
the Mayor to Inject his iows about tho
safety of tho City Hall Into tho dis
cussion of tho transit question Ho limy
1)0 a past master on tho Intricacies of
28 th Ward politics, but ho knows nothing

Let hhn lenvo the matter to thoso who do
know, while ho confines himself to the
financial details Ills opinion on the safe
ty of the City Hall foundations is worth
no more than that of his office boy
The Rvcnlng Bulletin halls the results
of tho meeting jestcrday ns "A Victory
for Public Opinion," and mys In part
Public opinion ns an honest and Intelli
gent forco left little room for nny doubt
ns to Its meaning when the attempt to
delay nnd cripple tho Taylor rapid transit
plan began to be fully understood, to
gether with tho apparent motives which
entered Into the Inception of the agitation
If tho Administration of tho City Hall
had persisted In keeping this question
open. It would have encountered such a
storm of popular opposition ns would have
overwhelmed It, nnd the loan bill would
have been completely wrecked
Henceforth there should bo tho
I strongest kind of pressuro exerted upon
I tho Major nnd tho Department of City
Transit to take bold of this work earn
! estlv and v Igorously w Ith the substitution
i of the Interests of tho city for prior con
sideration to the Interests of tho Stotes-bury-Mitten

public In every patt of Philadelphia that

Thero Is just one wnj- In whlrh tho

whether or not the Lennon nincndtncnt tn
tho municipal loan bill, advancing tho
Item foi transit development to $r7.10n,
0(10, makes any provlflon for the location
of tho llrond sticet subway station under
Citv Hall came to light todaj
James 13 Lennon. president of .Select
Council nnd downtown Vale leader, who
nt tho meeting of tho Klnnnco Committee
)esterdny intioilutcd the amendment In
the form In which It was passed, todii)
declared that It was not intended to make
nnv provision for the station under City
Hall
Ho stated frankly Hint he was still op
posed to tho Ta)lor Island station plan
under City Hnll nnd pointed out the trick
phrasing of tho ordinance which will mako
it posslblo to cbn me the station l cation
In accordance with tho tcconimrtiditlon
of Transit Director Twining This nick
consists of the uso of tho wouls "font
track capacllj" Instead of call! lg for
Mir tracks
He said later that he was perfectly will
ing to conform to public opinion
Maj'or -Smith, on the other hand, said
qulto positlVelj today that, ns he under
stands tho amendment, tho city now stands
committed to tho Taylor plans In ever)
detail and to tho Itroad street station
under City Hall
Tho Mil) or vvns asked tho following
questions-
"Mr. Mn)or, does tho Lennon amend
ment. In your view, commit tho city to
Broad Street Station under City Hnll7"
"Vex, m rending nf flin bill," replied tli
Mil) or, "unci my unilerHtiinilliig nf it Is
that the lty lx committee! to every Hue
nnd tner. detail of tho Tnjlor pliin, In
cluding the xtutlun under Clt) Hull nn
well."
'There seems to bo considerable differ
ence of opinion on tho point of the sta
tion lOL.atlon I3ven Mr Lennon has ex
plained today that ho worded the amend
ment to make it rosslblo to change tho
station plnns, nnd that Is why your posl-
ttjtkTTT-imffTlflrilfflp i illin 1 1 ,M i II II I I II ii lilil !HiMwwn mini i ig
tloi should bo clearly defined," the Mayor
was told.
WILL SIGN AMENDMENT.
"I know nothing of what Mr Lennon
may hnve Intended," the Mayor replied,
'but as I understand It the Oily ltoll
tntlnn will he bnllt It Councils pass tho
ordinance And while personally I still
feel that It is a mistake. I shall do
nothing more nnd shall sign the amend
ment If pnsscd by Councils I have pledged
mjself to give the people what they want
nnd I Intend to keep that pledge
"As I understand It, the cltv will get
the entire Tnjlor plnn In everv detail.
I felt It was a good thing to designate the
sum to be Used for each, so that now the
monej" cannot be diverted to outside pur
poses The ninttcr now rests with Coun
cils nnd, as I said, 1 shall sign the amend
ment If passed nnd shlill keep my pledge
with the pcoplo I only ask a square deal
by all"
Tho paragraph In the Lennon amend
ment, which gave rise to tho difference of
Mew. reads.
First. Toward the construction nnd
Improvement nnd payment of sinking
fund nnd Interest charges of n sub.
way In Urond street, from League
Island to Olnev avenue, wltlf a four
track capacity between McFerrnn
and Spruce streets, with the necessary
branch lines northeast and northwest
from llrond street, $25 000,000
The trick, as Mr Lennon pointed It out,
was the Insertion of the "four-track
capacity" after the designation of the
route of the subwnj". In tho belief of
Mr Twining, a four-track subway could
not be built on the west side of City Hall
nnd would have to run under the Hnll, na
planned by former Dliector Tavlor, there
by leaving tho station at Its orlglnnl
place
Pnder the Lennon wording, while the
subwny would be of four-track "capicltj"."
It would not neccssnrllv have to contain
tho four Hacks and could so bo built out
side of City Hall as to permit the station
undrt the Twining plan

enlled attention to another part of the
Lennon amendment that may ptnrti disas
trous to the final working out nf the
Taylor sjfttem.
The Lennon amendment, It wn Miown,
make" n nepnrnte Item for the provision
for the delivery loop, while the Tavlor plnn
combine the delivery loop with the Urond
Ktreet siibwnv, matting It Impossible tn
construct the one without the other. The
Heger amendment, which wns defentrd by
the rinnnee Committee, combine the de
liver) loop with the Urond Ktreet Miliwny
In neenrdnnre with the Tnvlor plnn. The
Lennon nmendment tnnkes nn entirely sep
arate Item nf the Urond street onhwav nnd
the delivery loop. Vniler the Lennon
nmendment, It wns pointed nut by ml-
Vocntes nf the Invlor plnn, the llrond
street subway rnuld be built without the
deltverv loop, which Is tht backbone of the
entire Tnjlor plan.
MAYOIt MI3T MITTEN SEC11ETLY
The adoption of the Lennon amendment
jestcrdi) came at the conclusion of ono
of the stormiest sessions ever held In tho
Pinanco Committee rooms of Councils
Mnjor Smith nnd Transit Director Twin
ing wero subjected to a severe grilling In
tho form of insinuating questions from
Select Councilman Segcr of the Penrose
fiction, nnd Select Councilman Harry .1.
Trnlner, who recently deserted tho Vnrcs
It was learned In the courso of the In
quisition tlial the Mavor and Transit Di
rector Twlnln,? had held two secret confer
ences with Thomas E Mitten, president of
the Philadelphia Itapid Transit Company,
and A L Drum consulting etiglneei for
tho transit companj Hut both tho Mayor
and the Director Insisted that these meet
ings had had no inlluenco upon the fram
ing of the emasculated bobtail plan which
wns so overwhelmingly repudiated at the
Flnanco Committee, meeting
Director Twining, during tho cross
etnmlnntlon by the McNIchol-Penroso
leaders, said ho guessed he had taken
orders
Another climax came when It was
bl ought out that tho Ke)itnno State Con
struction Compiny. tho McNIchol concern
which hoIdH the contract for the work
under Cltv Hall is bonded through the
Thomas 11 Smith Companj". from which,
however, the Jlnjor said ho had with
drawn before the company bonded the
McNIchol linn
Tho bands ,if the political factions wero
fccii nt the meeting when Mr Lennon an
ticipated .Mi Sogt.r nnd Introduced an
amendment providing what were supposed
to be the same things Mr Seger had an
t'otinted ho would Insist upon Not tu be
utdone Mr Segcr raised the amount of

-"on amendment was foi ill". 100 000
The major points of difference between
the Lennon and Seger nmindments ate
Tho Scgei amendment provided for an
Item of $00,000 nno for transit ; under the
Lennon nmendment the Item Is $57,100,000
The Seger amendment, tike the Ta)lor
plan, provldtd foi a high-speed lino across
tho 3Cth Ward to Ilvberi) ; tho Lennon
amendment piovlded for an ordinary
trolley lino over the public hlghwa).
Tho Lennon nmendment provides for
$r,000.000 for the Chestnut street subway.
The Segcr amendment specified no amount
for this work, but under the Taylor plin It
was estimated to cost $8,000,000
Dining the cross-examination of Direc
tor Twining, Mr Trainer naked
"Do )ou play golf'
"No," icplled the Director, but tho
significance of tho question was not fullj"
understood until the Major arose toward
the close of the meeting, nnd asked to be
permitted to make nn explanation
"I am a golf plajer," wns tho Major's
opening sentence.
"Is Mitten nlso a golf plajer?" asked
Mr Trainer.
