Boston subway bill clash reflections on Crane veto

The June 5 1910 vote in the Massachusetts House and Senate on the Washington Street subway bill ended with 169 to 55 in the House and 26 to 13 in the Senate. Governor Crane vetoed the measure and the House sustained the veto 98 to 136. The piece lauds Crane for upholding public will, notes future city ownership of subways, and argues that Boston’s transit planning will rely on referendums and city control rather than private leases. It also reflects on the Elevated road’s role and suggests the delay may aid a broader rapid transit system. The paper stresses a fair approach to all sides and foresees lessons from the new elevated system.
