GREEN E-HAR BY FISCHS 9 STARK STWKCTav SECOND' 4DJ PITTSBURG PORTLAND f Anything that; illuminates the streetcar question these 'days is of interest to us all. Here's something that is of especial interest. It gives us, as a community, something by which to make a fair comparison with our own situation in respect to streetcar conditions. And any thing that is so inseparably related to the public convenience your convenience as the method and conduct of streetcar operation any new angle that will help the community. solve the problem right and permanently is welcomed as eagerly by us as it is by you. Six-cent fare has been inaugurated in Pittsburg, Pa., by agreement with ttifl Public Service 'Com mission, to enable the Street Railway Company to meet the additional expense of an average increase of 5 cents per hour granted to its employes. ' With this increase of S cents per hour the Pittsburg Street Railway Company is still paying its employes an average of 6 cents per hour less than the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company pays-its employes. The difference, however, is due to the fact that in Portland streetcar men work eight hours per day, while in Pittsburg they work ten hours. On the Portland eight-hour .basis the higher hourly rate is, necessary to provide a reasonable daily wage. ; ( Pittsburg covers only two-thirds as much area as Portland, although it has nearly three times the population. . : I v . Thus it is plainly evident that the principal factor entering into the cost of street railway opera tiontraffic density is greatly in favor of the Pittsburg Company ias compared to the Portland Company. In this particular case it means that Pittsburg has just about four times as many pos sible car-rider -j-for each scjuare mile as Portland has. j . Incidentally, in connection with this increase granted in Pittsburg,! it is of general interest to note what Pittsburg people did when the increase was decided upon by their Public Service Commission as the best course to pursue. To make a long story short, instead! of declaring for a policy that would mean ruin for their streetcar company, as a few here In Pdrtand would apparently like to fasten upon the community as a public policy, they adopted a live-andAct live policy by consent ing to an increase; under ant agreement bclwcen the Street Railway Company and the Public Serv ice Commission of Pennsylvania until such time as a valuation of the company's property can posi tively determine all the merits of the increased fare; This valuation will take .about i8 months to complete and will be made by a committee of three one appointed by the City, one by. the Public Service Commission and one by the Street Railway Company. The valuation of the Portland Street Railway was made by the Puolic Service Commission of Oregon before the increased fare was granted here. ! I - This announcement is made for the information of those who may be under the impression that Portland is the only large city with a streetcar fare exceeding 5 cents, and also to refresh the memory of those who have forgotten that the increase in fare here was granted by the Public Serv ice Commission for 'the. benefit of the carmen, and that the increase in fare will not -pay the in crease in wages. 1 .
