They do so now simply because it can be uono for little or no cost. If tuU estimate bo correct there will thus bo provided an added available cor capacity qual to 100,000,000 ptssngers pr nn num for thos passengers whose rldo is of sufficient importnee to justify the payment of a five-cent faro. All Rides (o Cost Same "The proposed tariff will, therefore, uudcr theso calculations, leave 700, 000,000, or 70 per cent of our present passengers to be carried without chongo In cars, for a five-cent fare; will ade quately protect and encourage tho abort riding habit ; will charge flvo cents for each alngle'rldQ to all passengers nllke; will equally subject nil sections of the city to the ndded chnrge which will, however, bo morne by but 13 per cent Ot an passengers ami incne only nutu tlonnl live-cent charge, as against tho present three-cent exchange or trnus fer. It will ellmlnato for 10 per cent of thc total passengers tho short rldo privilege now principally used because of its being obtalnad free of cost, and will mako pbsslble the diverting ot this amount of car capacity to moro ade quately meet the urgent needs of thc rush' hour traffic of 1020-21. "A draft of a proposed ordlnanco Is respectfully submitted, with the request that your honorable body give its early utfscnt to the filing of the necessary tariff with tho Public Service Gominls siou n therein net forth. While atrect railway companies elsewhere aro secur ing flat increases to seven cents, and even ten cents, P. R. T. asks only for elimination of all free transfers and three-cent exchange ticket, conUnnlng the straight five-cent fare for each separate route." " Street Cleaning Not in Loan Bill CAOtlnoed from re One from $80,000 to $76,000. This extra ex tra expense can bo anved by having tho loan bill voted on at thc same time that the people vote for presidential electors and other officers. The inclnsion of funds for the street cleaning purchases in the big and gen eral loan bill would make it easier, it in argued, for the item to be passed t,Miih nnnnrll in face of the Veto power of the Varc men in the matter of lonne.

It will be simpler for obstructionists to hamper the whole program, it was urgued, if thc vote on the loan be postponed and cast at a special election.

M Russell, who motored to Phila delphia with her husband, Alexander I Moore, from Pittsburgh, to meet pMlHriftlnhln Republican women, said she had not known Miss Thomas, but was aware of the wickedness ot raris, "Paris Is the most wicked city I have seen," said Miss Russell, "the French people nre not so name to do ae moralized by the modern dances and wicked night life as nre American sight scerers. The French man says 'This dancing Is nwful. Do not look at it. I have seen it und nm disgusted.' But tho American visitor will not heed him." "Just Inst night Mr. Moore nnd I entertained Blanche Bates, her sister, Frances, who la married to Thomas Melghah, thc motion -picture star, and Virginia named at Atlnntlc City. Wo discussed the death of Olive Thomas. They knew her well and said that she was o. lovely girl. Thoy agreed that sho must have taken tho poison while in a hysterical condition. "The trouble with the motlon-picturo stars of today is thnt they arc making too muoh money. Their heads ure turned. Why, in my day. when I was making $300 a week, I thought I was doing pretty fine. But these movie peoplo make S10,000 a week nnd think nothing of it," Miss Russell wore a breastpin In the form of nn elephant made of penrls and studded with diamonds.
