CITY EMPLOYEES WON’T RIDE FREE At least two members of the rail mad commission are known to oppose making any exception* to the anti- pass order, which goea Into effect on January 1. If one more member Is opposed to It, that means that policemen, firemen, water Inspectors, health officers and other city employeea will have to pay fare on street cars next year. While members of the commission feel per sonally that there would be no harm In such employees riding free, that In Kinking any such exceptions It would lay down a dangerous precedent, and bring down criticism on the commis sion. While the local street car company Is entirely willing to continue the re lations existing now, it can not do so without an express order from the cimmlssion. Practically the same con ditions regarding this matter exist In Savannah, Augusta, Gainesville, Co lumbus and all other cities that have car lines.
