For Mr. Cummings. it is alleged by his friends that he all nloitg through the earlier stages of the convention pre ferred the nomination of Cox rnthei than of McAdoo. ltut it is certain, from what happened nt Sun Francisco, that, like many others there, Mr. Cum mings underestimated Governor Cox'i chance, and earl) became nnvinced that hi nomination was impossible Mr. Cummings was an ndtnluistrntion mni. nnd overestltnnti'il the Influence which the administration forces in tlio con vention would exercise in the uomina- j tinn oi a canuiiinie.

P. R. T. Bookkeeping Hides Transit Facts Continued from I'n"c One ehnngc in trolley fares could be Intro duced without tho consent of both parties. Then enme the act creating the State Public Service Commission, which pro vided for the filing with it of nil pro posed new schedules of trolley fares; it nlso provided thnt thirty days' notice must be given to tlie commission and the public of such changes. These chnnges were nutomnticnlly to go Into effect at the end of thirty days but only ns n temporary nlfnir pending tlie taking of testimony by the commis sion nnd providing no protests hud been filed against them. The Public Service Commission has thousands of similar cases coming be fore it. It Is impossible for it to hear nil such mntters within tlility days. I'nder the circumstniiccs n temporary advance of rate is often permitted until such time ns the commission can hear in full the testimony for nnd ngainst. and make n permanent ruling. Whnt the transit company assumed for Its purpose wns that this, thlitv- day preliminary notice in itself per mitted it to put into effect its new schedule, without consent of the city or the commission, until such times ns the commission wns prepared to hear and consider tlie reasons for the advance in fare.. Horn City Stepped In It was nt this point that the city, through its city solicitor, stennrd in and directed attention to the fact that the city s contract with tho Rapid Transit Co. wns still existent and In effect. The company lind not. of course, con sidered the city. It hnd proposed to go aheiid and raise fares on tlie ussumptioti thnt nil that wn necessary was to pub lish its new schedule thirty dn.vs in advance nnd then "Whoop 'or up." Rut the city intei vened nnd demanded that the company show cause for the In crenscd rates of fare Hnd this not been done the strange spectacle would hove been presented of the Rapid Tran sit Co. setting itself up as lievond the power of tlie city and of the state, I'surjiallon of State Power It would hnve been a clear cuse nf usurpation of tlie police power of state and city b.v a corporation cieatcd bv them, endowed with the power to over ride its cientots.

Financial Management ut Fault The trouble I witli tho company's system of financial management ns re vealed at tlie'liearings before Hie Public Service Coinniission. Principal uuiong the contention of the company lias been the attempt to prove to the service commission that the conipnny wus not curnlng the amount of interest on its cupltnl stock to which ns n public service corporation It is en titled. In an attempt to prove this every clever device known to exnert Oniiiw.liifu linu I, am.. . 1.1 .

Interests nnd tuxes paid to nnd for their accounts hnvo been the mill tone around the neck of tho company. Thlt Is admitted b.v tlio company Itself! but nb attempts have been tnnde by It to relievo Itself of this Incubus, beyond n presentation to the government by Its legnl counsel In connection with n plea forn readjustment of wartime tnxa tlon. Fair liaise Won't Halt Probo Should tho Public Service Cbintnts slon decide to permit tlio transit com pany to increnso its faresi ns prayed for. tho fact will not halt the progress of fiirtbor investigation as to tho affairs of tlie coiiipnny. If the commission should nllovv the temporary Increase of fares in this case, it will be In the face of every precedent created by It, nnd showing a considera tion lo the transit Company which hns not been accorded any similar corpora tion In the cntnmouwcalth, In reviewing other cases, the com missioners havo never, I nm reliably In formed; allowed even n temporary In crease of fares without some showing of renl values in tho property. In this case the company seeks to ob tain the right to Increase fares without any attempt on Its part to prove prop city value ns stated. .Must lie Showdown I'lllnuifcly There has to be ultimately n general showdown of the company's nffnlrs. The Inventory now being made will bo closely scanned by the city's legal rep resentatives. There Is no (piestion that certain of Its claims will he disputed, nnd ultimately, should the Public Serv ice Commission mnko n temporary In ci ease in fnrcs permanent, the case will be fought out In tho Supremo Court. It may be years before the tlnnl ad judication of the matter Is reached, nnil all the deadwnod nnd political debris heaped on tho city's transit system swept away. In the meantime the question of cer tificates of repnyment for excess fare paid by the people must be decided. If n temporary advance In fare is per mitted, will the conipnny be compelled to Issue to each passenger n certificate, or receipt, providing for the repnyment of the excess charge should the tem porary advance be not made perma nent? For whatever decision tlin service commission arrives nt. It is only tem porary and to remain in force till testimony covering every phase of the muddle has been heard. Repayment " Plan Not Considered This certificate of repayment wns not considered by the company apparently in its rush to put tho new schedule of fares into effect nt once. In tlie event of n refusal by the com mission to grant the temporary ad vance In fares, the company unques tionably will be left iu n very unde sirable and unenviable ponltion. The company will face n deficit, assume the burden of Inherited mismanagement of those who have gone before. What would be the solution? Only onr is nppnrent now. If the P. It." 1. v.lll Join In an action with the city ns co-plaintiff before the Public Serice ' Commission in nn endeavor to break the underlying lease, the Mrnnglchnld on its corporate existence. 11 way would be opened for relief. 'Hie company is in tne position 01 a tenant nrote'stlng to n landlord. If the tenant joins with the city in fight ing nn injustice imposed ny tne inntt lord. or the underlying companies, it will be nn evidence of good fnlth to ward the public nnd will carry grent hope of success. But have the Itapid Transit officials the disposition nnd nerve to tnkc this step? The drninnge system 01 me under, hing companies, already referred to, is exhausting the Rapid Transit Co.'s resources nnd imposing 11 mirden on trolley riders. There are five of these drains: First. The Transit Co. is paying divi dends on their stock nvcrngiug 14 U per cent per nnniiui. Second. It Is paying interests on their bonds. Third. It pays nil their taxes, includ ing dividend nnd renl cstntu taxes paid into the City Treasury. Fourth. Pays all their obligations nnd such costs of paving, now amounting to SiV.0,000 a year. Fifth.
