It will be a fiat passenger rate, the "zone" Idea being opposed by two the commissioners. Chairman Warner Hill and Commls sloner O. B. Stevens have agreed, and the decision Is now being held up In an effort to aecure the vote of Commls sloner Joseph M. Brown. It Is deair able to make the opinion unanimous, but In the event Commissioner Brown can not agree with the other two, decision will be rendered by the ma jority, leaving Commissioner Brown dissent. There will be no "zone” rate, but fiat rate as above Indicated. Messrs. Hill and Stevens oppose the ''zone' Idea, while It seems equally sure that Commissioner Brown favors It.
