ONE-MAN CAR RULE
DISAPPOINTS HAM
Utilities Commission Refuses
to Allow W. R. E. to In
stall Ten More.
The Public Utilities Commission
yesterday afternoon denied the peti
tion of the Washington Railway and
Electric CdTnpany to Install 10 more
one-man cars. The decision will not
Interfere with the operation of the 70
cars of that type already in use.
William F. Ham, president of the
company, said this morning that he
was disappointed over the decision of
tho commission, but preferred not to
discuss It in detail until he has seen
a copy of the order.
At the public hearing on the one
man car case last week Mr. Ham de
clared street oar travel was declining
steadily and that economy of opera
tion was imperative. He added that If
the company is not encouraged In Its
efforts to economize a higher fare
might be necessary.
lie Fare Boost Indications.
There were no Indications today,
however, that the company would
Immediately seek an Increase In fare
because of the inability to install the
10 additional one-man chrs. If these
cars had been allowed, the saving to
the company In a year would have
been 133.000, but an official of the
commission pointed out that it would
have cost substantially that much to
equip the cars, thus offsetting the sav
ing for the first year.
The formal order of the commission
may not go Into details as to the
reasons for rejecting the application,
but It is understood the commission
took the view that one-man cars
cannot be moved over the tracks as
expeditiously as two-man cars and
that vehicular traffic Is delayed
longer at corners where one-man
' cars stop.
William McK. Clayton, spokesman
for the Federation of Citizens’ Asso
ciations, led the opposition to the one
man cars, assisted by representatives
of a number of Individual associations.
