In the new fleet of cabs, no matter how many extra passengers there are and no mat­ ter how long the haul, the charge will be only twenty cents for each addi­ tional passenger. The women drivers will all be taken into the Auto Drivers' Union and they will only be used on the day shifts by the taxicab company.
