Mr. Hill and Mr. Hel~m spoke in favor of metered cabs. Mr. Soriano suggested some possible changes or amend- ~ ments to the ordinance: ],) As long as the applicant meets all the requirements of the ordinance there should not be any reason for not issuing a license and no limit set for the number of cabs run- ning in the City; 2) Each applicant should be required to run under one name, one insignia; 3) No provision in the new ordinance providing that one cab c~,~any cannot take another company's call; 4) Does not feel it necessary to have motor number when applying for a license. Co~,,,.~ssioner Clark stated the motor number is needed only when the license is issued not at the time of application. City Clerk Yeadon stated Section No. g (E) covers this matter; S) Inquired as to how many names a company can run under and su~ested this be limited. City Clerk Yeadon stated trade names are val- uable in advertising and should be retained as they have clientel built up. In conclusion, Mr. Soriano spoke in favor of non-metered cabs and suggested that people at least have the choice of the type of cab they wish to ride in. Also suggested meters be sealed if they a~e mandatory. .... Mr: Fraz~er, Secretary of the Mickle Corporation, spoke mn favor of metered cabs and cited some wage~ pazd before and after the insertion of meters in the cabs. Mr. King s~oke in favor of metered cabs and ek~plained the operation of his cabs before the metel"s and the difference in wages after they we~ ! metered.

Con*nissioner Clark stated this is as near perfect an ordinance that could be devised after the lengthy study made in this area and feels that it is in the best interest of the public to pass the ordinance. Commissioner Schoneman stated the ~Ordinance is a good workable one and should be put to use. Mr. Schoneman also stated the suggestions made by Mr. Soriano were good ones and would be kept in mind for consideration for amendment to the new ordinance in the future.
