ANOTHER DKIiAY IN WORK
The beginning of. work on ths subway
,H.-cry loop uim "i n" uiu Biiovi suu.
"" between South and Stiles streets is
ttjjatencd with another postponement bo
Bse of the enormous Increase In the co6t
f labor and materials nlnco tho bids for the
work were opened several months ago.
This fact became known today as a
direct result of tho favorable" action of
th Senato Judiciary Genernl Committee In
Snorting favorably tho transit legislation
.ought by tho city. Until this legislation
Jl, acted upon the Public Service Com
nljflon rcfuscd to grant tho certificates of
riubilc convenience for tho construction
Ljlc and until the certificates were
ranted the city was unable to award tho
contracts, although bids were opened part
h, February nnd part In March.
With the Issuance of tho necessary certifi
cate now apparently a matter of several
weeks tho contractors who submitted tho
low bid" for tno worI ore considering tho
necessity of requesting1 tho transit depart
ment to relievo them from their contracts
en the grounds that It would bo Impossible
to do the work now at tho figure named
la the original bids.
McNICHOL IS FRANK
Senator Mc.N'Ichol. v,'ho(,o firm, the Key
stone Construction Company, was.low bidder
on four of the six contracts at a total fig
ure for the four of marly $10,000,000,
frankly admitted tho truth of this and ex
plained the difficulties nuw confronting tho
contractors
It would bo virtually Impossible," he
Slid, "to get tho subcontractors to carry
cut their part of the work now nt the
original figures, and so, of course, we will
to simply 'up against It.' As a result of
the. changed conditions, nnd the fact that
the awarding of the contracts has been held
up for months I do not believe that any
court In the land would hold us to our
original bids. Just what course will be
followed has not been determined yet."
The total of the nix contracts for which
kids havo been opened Is approximately
I15.000.0UO. What It would cost the city to
award these now In view of the Incroased
price the Transit Department Is unwill
ing an estimate, and It Is likely that the
work will be postponed 'until conditions
hare again becomo more.jiearly normal, In
case the request of tho "contractors to re
lieve them is granted.
Director Twining said today that ho
would wait until tho bills In the Legislature
Irs passed 'before proceeding any further In
the draft of the new lease which Councils
have directed him to prepare. Tho passage
of the bills, he explained, would mako It
possible to draft a far better lease than
could be drawn without tho bills.
Strong Indication that tho Transit Com
pany Is still willing to continue the nego
tlons over tho lease, In spite of tho action
of Councils last week In rejecting the com
pany's leaso offer, was given last night by
E. T. Stotesbury, chairman of tho board
or directors of tho company, In an address
before the United Business Men's Asso
ciation at tho Bingham Hotel.
, Mr. Stotesbury. as If with the Intention of
gaining tho confidence of every man before
him, asked them to look squarely at him.
"Look me in tho face," ho said, "and I will
look at you. Then, perhaps, wo will under
itand each other. I don't see any reason
why this transit question cannot be settled.
I have the stockholders of the company to
consider, but I also have the Interests of
11 the people of tho city of Philadelphia to
consider I would not feel right In taking
way from the city what belongs to It.
When I went Into tho company I tried to
do what was right. Wo have given you
good service. Tho stockholders of tho com
pany havo put from $30,000,000 to $40,000,
000 Into the concern nnd they are entitled
to something. Gentlemen, we have nothing
to sell but transportation. The whole thing
Is purely a business proposition, nnd it is
my earnest desire to do the fair thing by
very one. I want to bo fair to tho city
nd to the stockholders..
In the light of the Mayor's decidedly
pessimistic attitude on the transit s'tua
tlon, expressed In a statement Monday, to
the effect that If tho transit legislation
(Pending at Hnrrisburg wore not passed the
city would be without hope. Mr. Stotes
bury's address was considered as most significant."

A drastic "food consenntlon" bill, pro

Bullard's article recommended that Jose
Plus Daniels bo ousted from the Navy De

YOU have probably seen some of
our men "demonstrating" in tho
stores how we toast the tobacco for
Lucky Strike cigarettes.
It is one of the most interesting
little glimpses you have ever had of
a new manufacturing idea.

a flame and again offer it to you.

flavor is brought out and increased,
by this toasting.
You owe the delicious new Lucky
Strike Cigarettes to our development

toasting not only improves flavor (as
you have actually noticed) but by
our process it seals in this flavor and
delivers it to you fresh in the
cigarette. The result is wonderful
because the tobacco
