Senate Orders Probe of McAdoo Tunnels Wnnbliißton, July 6.—lnvestigation of the Government's reasons for holding and operating the electric railroad tubes between New York, Jersey City and Newark, known as the McAdoo tunnels, was ordered by the Senate yesterday when the body adopted Senator Frelinghuyaen's reso lution instructing the Commerce Committee to make the inquiry. The resolution asserts that these electric lines are not used in the transportation of freight nor <r>f sol diers and their operation has nothing to do with the war work of the Gov ernment. The Commerce Committee is directed to ascertain why the Di rector-General of Railroads is hold ing these suburban electric lines and operating them, why the fare from New York to Newark has been In creased sixty per cent, and why the fare from New York to Jersey City was first advanced 100 per cent, and then reduced to the original rate of 5 cents. Mr. McAdoo, or some one represent ing him, will be called upon to ex plain the situation. While Senator Frellnghuysen in asking for the in vestigation is apparently prompted by the desire of his constituents in New Jersey to learn why they are paying Increased fares, there is doubt in the Senate whether the operation of these lines by the Government, at an Increased cost to the traveling public, can be Justified.
