RICSHA FARES

To the Editor of the Nonru-CuiNa Datty News."

Sin,—Referring to the recent correspondence in your columns anent the riesha pullers, I have good rea-to believe that most of the omissions to pay the proper fares arise through. ignorance of the Municipal Regulations, and the existing scale of riesha fares as authorized by the Shanghai Municipal Council many years ago, which scale of tariff should now be revived owing to the cost of living having advanced to about double during the past years.

isa TARIFF oF Mowten Panes For Peauic Rieaia mile oF te 10 cents, 10 cents how oF less 50 cents, Each subsequent hour or less 40 cents The public generally would greatly assisted and a great deal of misunderstanding and trouble avoided, should the Municipal Council erect conspicuous Tariff Boards the various riesha shelters, stands, principal hotels, and publi parks throughout the Settlement.
