That it does not pay to furnish seats is a tradition that is fast disappearing among- railway men. That enough seats cannot be furnished in the rush hours is another tradition which no longer has any basis.. 35 In Europe, companies have been compelled to give sufficient seats and have found ways to do it. In this country some companies have realized the mistakes of the past and are volun-- tarily providing sufficient accommodations. It is time to take a firm stand on this matter in New York, an...d to accept no excuses. Should not all cars have cross seats? Observations — The standard seat in the Manhattan closed cars is still the longitudinal seat, which is also too frequent in other cars, being often very uncomfortable, with the hig"h rates of accel- eration and braking common in the city. As cross seats are feasible now, even in narrow cars, should they not be required, at least in all new rolling stock, whether subway, surface or elevated? If all cars had the maximum number of cross seats, there would be no difficulty in providing enough seats for all passengers at the rush hours ; the excuse of the need of standing room is no longer a reasonable one.
