BLACKFORD. I (Fourth of a series on the transit situation in Nese York Out of the tangled mess of transit discussion much of it unadulterated hot -Transportation Chairman John H. Delaney stands up as the only public official, in either State or city, who has a transit program and the backbone to put it into effect. While the companies are madly shrieking advice to the city as to what it ought to do, and the State Transit Commission, chaperoned by Samuel Untermyer, is wallowing into a general investigation to find out what it would like to have done, Delaney is doing. His plan is not merely in his head or on paper is being put into effect as rapidly as possible.

He believes that the first need of the city is more subways- -therefore he has let contracts to total of $168,962,356 to bulld them. And the steamshovels are, and have been for some time, digging the ditches. To this extent the city is already irrevocably committed to his policies. Seeks Unification. He believes that the city needs an ultimately unified system and he has a thoroughly worked out method by which the city may progressively move toward that ideal.

He has a complete grasp of the details of the whole situation, recognizes the necessity of paying for what is received and knows just how far the 5-cent fare will go, what it won't cover and what the practical alternatives are. His knowledge of the subject is so thorough that even Untermyer, accustomed as he has been to running his own shows, daren't move alone in this and is consulting the city transit expert at every turn. Delaney's basic principles are tied up in the theory, that the city should own all its transit lines, but that operation should be: by any method which will give the greatest service for the lowest cost, without profit and with the city occupying a dominant position as the dictator of the amount of service on the lines. To reach this ideal he recognizes the necessity of negotiating with the present holders of city leases or owners in fee simple of certain lines and that these negotiations will necessarily govern the details of the final system put into effect. New Lines as Trading Basis.

Since the object must be achieved by negotiation he regards it as the first essential to put the city in a panies, position so to that negotiate it has with the com- to I something trade upon. New subway lines, he believes, are the basis of such strategy--and with that in mind they are being built---not merely as auxiliaries to the present lines, but as a unified system that the city can operate independently if need be. He has won his fight for that kind of a new system. The efforts to force him to omit certain links to independent operation, such as the 53d st. tube to Queens, have failed.

The contract for that line is awarded. The next step is the approach to the companies. He took "last fall by announcing that the city was ready to talk business--and incidentally that was the thing that awakened the State Commission and started the present probe. He proved that he was not bluffing when he entered the recent conferences as the accredited agent of the city and started actual dickering. The companies were somewhat surprised -but the reaction has been to the effect that they believe they can "do business with Nickel Is Sacred.

From this point on the Delaney plan is more or less elastic--depending, as explained, on what kind of a bargain can be driven. Delaney will favor retention of the 5-cent fare at all costs, providing for supplying whatever deficit this may force by other means, in the taxes if necessary. The Tammany political generals and Delaney is a good Tammany man--are determined that the nickle as a fare rate---and a vote getteris sacred. From an economical standpoint the argument is to be this: A 10-cent fare is too much. It is unnecessary and any spilt between that and 5 cents is awkward.

Transit, SO far as New York is concerned, is as much a public necessity as the hospitals, the ferries, water, the schools, the streets and bridges. Most of these are free to the users, the taxpayer bearing all the burden. Others like the hospitals and ferries seek to charge users something but expect deficits to be made good through taxes. Practically only one -water--pays its way. Why, then, it is asked, should not the city pay the deficit through taxes on a utility as important as transit? As a matter of fact, it is pointed out, the city is doing it to the tune of millions a year right now, represented by interest on the city's investment of about $300,000,000 in the present subways.

Taxpayers to Shoulder Deficit. New York's present business, it is argued, could not he carried on without transit facilities any more than it could be a world metropolis without streets or bridges. Therefore, it is Delaney's plan to provide some source other than fares to carry the deficit, if deficit there is to be on a 5-cent fare. Of course he will fight to make that deficit as small as possible. This will be reflected in the battle to acquire title to the lines and the lease rights at the lowest possible figure.

Once acquired Delaney would create a semi-public corporation for operation. This could be either an entirely new body, one or the other of the present big operators O1 a combination of both depending again upon what sort of a bargain can be driven between the city and the companies. All Profit Wiped Out. The new operator, however, would face some new conditions. All chance of profit would be obliterated.

It would be in effect a limited dividend corporation, its returns being limited to a fixed figure, equal to the interest on the private capital retained in the lines. Also its control would not be solely in the hands of private directors. The city would be represented by men in proportion sufficient to dictate, at least for purposes of operation, the policies of the company. This, it is declared, would insure the utmost in service and obviate the struggles CONFIRMATION ORENSTEIN Mr. and Mrs.

Sacasa, who set up a Liberal government here last December in opposition to the Conservative government at Managua of President Adolfo Diaz, left Puerto Cabezas with his entire staff at 6 last night.

Twenty-seven were said to be in the party. The Liberal Executive boarded the United Fruit Company sloop Wawa, accompanied by his Cabinet, bound for Port Limon, Costa Rica, whence he 'will to Guatemala City. He was noncommittal regarding his future plans, but it is understood he will resume his medical practice in Guatemala. A great crowd witnessed the departure of the party. It was said that it will be 1928 before they will return to Nicaragua, when they will compete in the elections.

Rodolfo Espinza, who was Minister of Forcign Relations in Dr. Sacasa's probably will be the Liberal candidate for President. of Nicaragua. U. S.

Notified of Departure. Washington, May 21 (P) ture for Costa Rica of Dr. Juan Sacasa, former Vice President of Nicaragua, and leader of the Liberal faction in the recent civil war, was reported to the State Department today by Admiral Latimer, commanding American naval forces in Nicaraguan waters. The State Department was without details of Sacasa's journey and officials declined to indicate any belief that his departure would terminate his connection with the civil war. WELCOME DINNER FOR 'LUCKY' WHEN HE RETURNS HERE Brilliant Gathering to Greet Modest Hero at Astor Night After He Gets Back to New York.

"Lucky" Lindbergh, the most reticent and retiring of the men who fly, has a more difficult situation to face than that long, sleepless drive which took him, in one lonely "hop," from New York to Paris. When he returns again to this side a great welcome will await him, no doubt as elaborate as any New York ever gave to those who have. conte back in glory after doing great things. And in particular, he will have to sit and listen while his own praises are sung at an American sportsmen's testimonial banquet to be held evening after his arrival here at the Astor Hotel. Now, Lindbergh, a modest.

if reckless young man, shrinks from the public eye, though on no one is it more directly turned just now than on him. Possibly at this time he would just as soon not be a guest of honor. Planned Before Hopoff. But the banquet was organized a week or more before he started east, when it was not known whether he, or Commander Byrd, or perhaps Chamberlin or one of the other American fliers would do that which he has now done. The banquet was to be held in honor of the first American to make the New YorkParis flight, and among those invited by Richard R.

Sinclair, the chairman, were all the men who had a chance of making the flight. They all accepted, to be there as the guests of honor if they succeeded or to do honor to the successful one if they didn't. Yesterday a signed communication was delivered to the banquet on me. Charles A. So they are counting on him.

In the main ballroom of the Hotel Astor, with Col. Theodore Roosevelt as toastmaster, officials of the city, State and Nation, leaders in sport and leaders in the business and civic life of New York will cheer for Lindbergh. In for Embarrassing Time. And unless his nature has changed by that time, there will be something of a bad quarter of an hour for the gallant young captain in this. For everything known about him indicates that he is happier when the limelight is on some one else.

Something of this modesty came to young Lindbergh by of inheritance. His father, late right. Charles A. Lindberg Sr. was a Congressman from Minnesota in 1912.

Each Congressman writes his own biograph for the Congressional Record and in it takes the opportunity to tell much about his achievements and connections, so' that it will make good reading for the constituents back home. Congressman Lindbergh, establishing something of a precedent, wrote simply: "Charles A. Lindbergh, Republican, the date of birth. And the young man's mother, 11: similar vein, when asked for an terview. said in effect: "This is man's' enterprise, Keep the women out of it."

Ayen Funeral Parlor 55 7th at Lincoln Place Homelike Surroundings Phone Sterling 0060 of the past to make private operators run trains enough or often enough to satisfy the public as nearly as the capacity of the lines would permit, without respect to the effect on the net income figure of the annual balance sheet. In working out any dicker with the companies it is recognized that there would still be an equity held by private capital in the lines taken over by the city, because the municipality could not pay for everything outright. Delaney would pay guaranteed return on this.

But the proposal is that the city be permitted to amortize gradually all this private interest over a period of years, SO that at a date in the future New York would entirely obliterate all private interest and own the entire system and equipment, including power houses and cars in fee simple. Cost Upward of a Billion. The policy laid down by Delaney is a gigantic one from the financial angle. It means a city investment ultimately of not less than a billion dollars in transit- -some figures estimate it as high as a billion and a half. Neither of these figures represent purchases of trolley lines, either.

They cover only rapid transit, for Delaney is primarily interested only in subways and elevateds -the latter as a necessary evil to be gradually rooted out and replaced by underground tubes, The new construction which Delaney has laid out alone aggregates more than half a billion over A decade, and the remainder would go into recapture or is represented by the city's investment to date in existing operating lines. Here, again, the chairman has taken the bull by the horns. While the transit and civic bodles wailed that the city didn't have the borrowing capacity for any extensive transit program, he consistently for several years fought for an increase of $300,000,000 in the debt. margin. Last winter he scored on that.

The Legislature passed an enabling referendum which frees water bonds to the extent of 000,000 for subway construction. This, of course, has to be passed on by the people at the November election, but there is little doubt it will be approved. Has Big Lead. While enemies of the scheme chortled that its use was limited to construction, and therefore wouldn't help the city in buying out the private lines, the argument is easily met by the fact that the use of an equal amount within the debt limit, which might otherwise have been tied up in construction, is released for readjustment and recapture purposes. The whole Delaney scheme may have flaws; it may eventually be blocked, either by the State Transit Commission or the companies, but nevertheless it remains that Delaney has the only plan that is at all in the field, and by reason of the fact that he has been building new lines to fit into his scheme for three years it has a big start over any other policy that might be laid down by the State Board as a resultant of its hearings.

The investment of $168.000,000 by the city to date in the Delaney plan, as represented by lines already under contract, is going to be an enormous deterrent to any proposal for change, if it hasn't already fastened the Delaney policies so securely upon the city that any material modification at the hands of Untermyer or the State Transit Commission is altogether impossible. Coughlin Denounces Citizens Union Assemblyman Edward J. Coughlin, Democrat, of the 11th A. last night issued a statement in which he denounced the Citizens Union for the report it has made on his Albany legislative record. The report on Mr.

Coughlin was: "Continued to render service of inferior quality and to demonstrate unfitness for legislative work." This is what the Assemblyman had to say: "They gave me that brickbat because I have continued to ignore them for the five terms I have been elected to the Assembly. I will only say that I value the good opinion of the men and women of my district, who continue to re-elect me, much more than I do the irresponsible and vicious mouthings of hirelings of the Citizens Union."

Not only did Mr. Kirchner succeed in checking the outcome of predictions more accurately than any other contestant, but the reasons given for his opinions were unusually appropriate and well expressed. Wins in Close Race.

Other contestants, however, gave him a close race and there is every indication that the competition during this coming week will be even keener. Whether women are better judges of coming events than men still remains to be decided. Women contestants this past week, though numbered by men, managed to keep among the group selected as the best each day. If more women join the quite possible that the contest, the it is week will find them ahead of the men in every respect.

Untermyer was variously characterized as "clever." "a servant of the' people" and "a greater worker in his own behalf.

With replies as intelligent and shrewd as these being returned daily, It can be seen that this week's contest will be as close a struggle as it is possible for a contest to be.
