A fight for terms morn faverable te
the city In the agreement proposed by
the Vi Jl. T. Company for operation
of the city-owned Frankford Klevatcd
w .started today by Transit Director
Twining and City Solicitor Smyth, en
instructions from Mayer Moere.
Better terras wcre insisted upon by
these officials, as Council's Special
Transit Commission met te hammer out
n new agreement. The first session
was rjeld.in the office of Itlcherd cg
loin. president of Council.
The- commission was created last
Tutsday when Themas 13. Mitten,
president of the P. It. T., offered te
dpcrate the clty'-builtllnc In conjunction
with the Market street subwayclevatcd.
-Object te Mitten's Tlan
Under the new Mitten plan the city
weujd receive the diffcrence between
the operating receipts and the operating
xpenscj of the Frankford "1 and
would pay a proportionate rental for
the uee of the Market street subway
front ,cent,freet te the Fifteenth street
station. Mayer Moero is lighting for
mere liberal .terms and li piepnring
for municipal' operation of the "L."
The' conferees representing the city
were Mr. Twining, Mr. Smyth. Control -ler.Iadley
and Mr! Weglein. The com
pany was represented by K. A. llicli
urdwn. vice president of the I. K. T.,
In charge of operation ; VT. C. Dunb.ir.
vice president 'in charge of finance, and
vColemen .7. Joyce, counsel for the com cem
I'gny. The es&ien began at 11:10 o'clock
thind locked doers. Mr, Smyth brought
Assistant' City Solicitor Megec with
tlm. The only ether person present who
was net a nipmber of the commission
was Frank W. Short, executive clcik
f Cduncil.
Kates Are Disciisted
In preparation for the conference Mr.
Weglein last night read ninety-five
typewritten pages covering the ftute
merits and discussions at the transit
meeting last Tuesday
Six tickets for a nuartcr may be the '
Tain of far- rhAnrpri en tbe Frankford '
Ievated line If the city operates the
municipally constructed read.
In his message te Ceuuell yesterday
accompanying the ordinance authoriz
ing the creation of a Bureau of Opera
tions te run the line, Mayer Moere sug
gested that if the city operated the ele
vated "a return te the rates of fare
prevailing In 1007 might be brought
bout."
Six Bides for Quarter?
TWiat means the old six rfaii for a
quarter which prevailed up te 1H0D.
The suggestion that the city might
underbid the Philadelphia Ilapid Tran
sit Company en the matter of fares If it
operated the Frankford read was easily
the outstanding featurp of the transit
situation yesterday. The low fare, it
was said, would attract riders and
f xeUld materially increase the number of
1, passengers carried in addition te boost-
' tng the receipts.
In Council yesterday Mr. weglein
charged that the proposed aereement
forwarded te Council last month by the
Maver would have "stung the car
riders of Philadelphia te the extpnt of
J53,00O.0OO,M because of a contemplated
increase In ratea of fare from four
tickets for a quarter te a straight
"" aeTen-cent basis.

Albert Smith Faught, secretary of the

gested a rigid examination of the moral
character and reputation and Tccerd of
applicants for btrcet cleaning jobs be
ma.de. This was objected te by Com
missioner Mccld, who suld that street
cleaning jobs were considered one of the
lowest forms of employment, and a man
with a prison record bheuld be allowed

Mr. Faught countered with the sug

in-
By the Associated Press
Paris. Dec. 10. The Allied Repara
tions Commission, meeting today te
consider the German notice of Inability
te pay the next two installments In full
and requesting extension of time, vir
tually agreed that the Commission itself
should take definlte notion en the request
Instead of referring the question te the
allied governments. The note was coldly
received by the French press.
It was announced that the Commis
sion would meet again this afternoon
te discuss the matttr further.
Dr. Mayer, German Ambassador, de
livered te Premier Brland today n ceny
of the German "reparations note. The
German Embassy announced that Dr.
Mayer's visit was liralfed te this errand
nnd that there was no truth in the re
port that he had presented a formal de
mand for delay In the payments ec for
n moratorium. The two payments,
000,000,000 geld marks each, are due
January 15 and February 15 of next
year.
The note declared that, even with
the time extension, payment in full
depended upon the success of efforts
te ebtnin a fereien lean. Custcms re
ceipts nnd revenues from ether sources
which Germany intended te use in
making the payments had netted only
from 150,000,000 te 200,000,000 geld
marks, the uote continued.
Nole Lacldng in Details
Although the note cannot be de
scribed as curt, it is regarded in rcn rcn
nratiens circles as remarkable for its
lack of details or expression of regret
ever its failure te live up te the agree
ment. Fer these and ether reasons,
the note has made an unfavorable im
pression in French circles.
"Will the Ruhr be occupied this
time?" "Germany cannot pay, but
her industry tiavs SO Per cent divi
dends." These arc some of the captions
in the morning newspapers straws that
show whieli way the wind of opinion
blows. Says the Figare:
"Germany doesn't want te pay any
thing, und if her debts were remitted
she would seen be asking for indemni
ties." Le Journal asscits German Industrial
magnates have 7.000.000.000 geld
marks deposited In foreign banks, but
that they demanded such outrageous
tonus in return for nld te the Govern
ment that Chancellor Wirh wns
obliged te refuse, lacking the courage
or strength te require of them mere dis
interested aid.
Whether the reparation commission's
action will take the form of another
note te Germany or the Immediate
(riinsniisien te the allied Powers of a
statement of the facts, together with
implied recommendations, bus net been
determined, but In reparation circles It
is believed the latter course will be fol
lowed. Majority opinion in the commission
is said te favor submission te the Allien
of an outline of the only three methods
considered possible by which Germany
could meet the forthcoming payments.
The first method, it is peintrd out,
would be for Germany te use the money
held by German nationals nbrerid.
amounting te about seven billion geld
murks. Te n request of this kind Ger
many could reply that sue wns unable
te force her nationals te give up (his
money, and the Allied would have no re
course, i
The second method would be the use
of the geld reserve in the Gernuin
Reichsbank of mete thnu one billion
geld marks. Reparation officials say
that while this reserve covers only 1
per cent of the outstanding paper and
therefere Is valueless as u guaranty, the
German people nevertheless derive con
fidence from it. nud if the entire re
serve were vvipd out financial chaos with
unlimited potentialities for harm might
fellow.
Failed te Balance Budget
The third method Indicated would be
for Germany te buy foreign exchange
with her paper marks, which method,
in the view et the experts, would be
even mere disastrous than the second
method suggested.
the experts advocate the Inclusion of.
these three methods in 11 nole te the
Allies, with the statement that thee
ere the only wnjs open te Germany for
pnyment et the next two installments i
and that if, In the opinion of the Allies,
failure te resort te ene of them would
constitute u default, then Germnnv
should he formally declared in default
of her payments.

probably caused the death of Ben Me
Gee, of Charleston, according te Mic re
