Smyth Drafting Ordinance.
Should Ce Through "Like
Lightning," Weglein Says
Speed has marked every phase of the
Frankford li situation since agreement
was reached yesterday between the city
and the Rapid Transit Company for
operation of the line, starting Novem
ber 5.
Whiie the city is preparing the legis
lative and material action, the north
east is getting ready te give the line a
flying start.
An ordinance embodying the lease,
sent te Council by Mayer -Moerc yes
terday, is being drafted today by City
Solicitor SmytJi. Werk en tills im
portant bill wns started following a con
ference between the City Solicitor and
Richard Weglein, president of Coun
cil. Workmen were spurred te further ef
forts today in putting finishing touches
en the thrce powerhouses which will
supply the "juice" for the line, while
counsel for the city nnd the company
were busily engaged in taking, legal
steps te permit the P. R. T. te super
vise the installation of equipment.
As geed news flies quickly, offices of
the P. It. T. were besieged with work
men desiring te be listed for jobs en
the elevnted line. The company ylll
require about BOO empleyes te man the
curs, conduct ticket offices, Inspect the
tracks and perform the extra work en
tailed in the shops.
Werk en the ordinance probably will
be finished enrly next week, when the
measure will be tent te a Committee of
the Whole of Council.
Mr. Weglein said he would call a
mcetlnir of the committee next week.
by which time the members will have
d Bested the terms of the lease, nnd
nsk for imn '-ite action. When action
hnH been tul.cn by the committee, the
ordinance will be tent buck te Council
for vote nnd then the bill will be sent
te the Mayer for his signature.
Doesn't Loek for Obstacles
"I de net leek for u single obstacle,"
said the president of Council. "In view
of the fact that I was delegated te rep
resent Council in the numerous confer
ences between the city and the com
pany and virtually all the members have
expressed gratification ever tuc restiii.
I hope te sec the measure sail through
liku greased lightning."
"As there is a general public demand
for operation hi the Hue nt the earliest
opportunity I cannot see hew any one
who has the progress of the city nt
lienrt can conscientiously try te block
the progress which has already been
made."
Several ether members of Council
expressed similar views.
The same spirit which characterizes
the legislative part of the transit pro
gram is manifest in the construction
end.
At the Department of City Transit
it was learned thnt the three power
houses nlens the line will be completed
within n few dn.vs. They arc located
nt Frent street and Fairineuut avenue,
Cumberland street nnd IxenMngten ave
nue, and Orlscem nnd A streets. They
are sturdily built and equipped te
tnnd the lead which will arrive when
the line eventually develops into u
big traffic preposition.
W. II. .Fohnen, vice president of
th Philadelphia Electric Company,
which concern will supply the power,
snld : "V.' arc making rnpld connec
tions betv m the sub-stations nnd the
generating v int. There has been ab
solute hnrmii iv In nil the work between
I he company nnd tne city, and tne
Philadelphia Klectrle con be depended
ipen te lie ready before the wheels
urn en the line."
Despite the fact that many difficult
problems were encountered in making
tne connections, it wns learned mat
these will in no way cause delay.
Northeast Dusy
Inqulry in the northeest showed that
the people generally were well satisfied
witli the terms made between the city
nnd the P. It. T. The company will
pny the city rental of 1 per cent n jenr
beginning next jenr and reaching 5 per
cent in 1027. Business men nnd resi
dents nr cprepnilns te give the first car
which rolls ever the line a reusing
reception.
Building contractors who hesitated te
extend operations during the long con cen con
tre.crsy ever operation of the "I are
new preparing te build en several
localities bordering the line.
The fact that the company has agreed
te Issue free transfers from surface
lines te the elevated line, through threugh through
reuto It te Sixty-ninth nnd Market
btreets, and also glve transfers te points
north und south, wns the big factor
lu winning the approval of the north
east. This mentis that a rider may beard

Speaking vi the celebration which
