JITNEY KNOT HOLDS
Another Attempt of Council to
Agree on Ordinance Fails.
ISSUE IS NOT YET DROPPED
3Ir. Baker I-avors Mayor's Proposal
but Kathor Thau Have Deadlock
Continue Announces He Will
Vote for Daly's Measure.
The Council still stands deadlocked
find the little jitney rambles right
along.
One more attemut or the part of the
Council to get together on an ordi
nance, regulating the new form of
transportation, was unsuccessful yes
terday, Mayor Albee opposing Mr.
Daly's proposed ordinance and Mr. Daly
opposing the people's ordinance as
backed by Mayor Albee. Still another
effort will be made to get somewhere
on the proposition at tomorrow's meet
ing. The jitney union officers, with repre
sentatives of the Central Labor Coun
cil at their side, yesterday urged
against the enactment of the ordinance
which was adopted by the voters in
June and knocked out on a technicality
In the State Supreme Court. They de
clared that the measure is too severe
and that the people in passing it did
not realize what they were doing.
Referendum te Threatened.
The assertion was even made by A. A.
Thiekle of the jitney union, that Mr.
Italy's ordinance is objectionable to the
jitney interests and that if passed the
referendum will be invoked against it.
The same course, he said, would be fol
lowed if the Mayor's ordinance should
be passed.
The Mayor's measure provides against
jitneys operating on Washington street
from Third to Broadway because of
traffic congestion: requires the jitney
service during certain specified hours,
over certain specified routes and on
specified schedule; prohibits overcrowd
ing of thf cars: prevents jitneys from
leaving their routes except after run
ning hours in which they are not re
quired to give service over specified
routes; requires interior lighting of
cars at night and requires payment of
a license fee. This measure was passed
by the voters.
The Daly ordinance eliminates ali
these exactions except the license fee
and the interior lighting. It retains in
modified form the provision for routes
but does not require a schedule nor ser
vice during specified hours. The jitney
interests now insist upon the license
fee being cut down and the interior
lighting provision being taken out.
Emergency Claune Is Needed.
To get anywhere the Council must
pass a jitney ordinance with an emer
gency so that the referendum cannot
be invoked. This takes a unanimous
vote of the Council. With Mr. Daly
objecting to the passage of the Mayor's
ordinance and the Mayor objecting to
Mr. Daly's ordinance passing, the propo
sition stands at a deadlock.
The Mayor contends that it would be
a breach of faith for the Council to
pass anything but the measure passed
by the people. Mr. Dieck takes the
same position that this measure has not
been tried out even though the people
passed it by a substantial vote and
after a lively campaigiv made by both
the jitney interests and those favoring
regulation.
Commissioner Baker favors the May
or's ordinance but says he will vote for
Mr. Daly's measure rather than have
nothing at all. Commissioner Bigelow
has not made his position known.
