As we have already. in previous articles on the subject, detailed at length the faults of the present arrange, ments of the jinricksha systent, we need only refer now to the now regulations which will shortly come into operation.
Credit must be given to the Registrar General for the practical fashion in which he has grappled with the difficulties of the position. It would have been manifestly unfair to the jinricksha proprietors and coolies, as well as inconvenient to the public, to have arbitrarily insisted on the new code of regulations coming into force at one, and so Mr. RUSSELL has devised à scheme by which the necessary improve- ments can be effected gradually. The new regulations, if properly carried out, which we see no reason to doubt, should, according to our idea, satisfactorily answer all reasonable requirements. The number of licensed vehicles will be gradually -reduced until there are only sufficient ply
ing to adequately meet the necessities of the public. The usual rules of the road, as applied to ordinary vehicles, will be strongly impressed upon the mind of every jinricksha coolie, and for any infringement of such rules, the license will be withdrawn, or other punishment inflicted as the nature ot the case may require. All new vehicles after this date must be constructed on en-
tirely different lines, At present our rickshas are large enough to contain a whole family--and as a matter of fact we have repeatedly seen a man, and his wife,
and two or three children in one 'ricksha--; in futuro no new licenses will be issued for vehicles that are not constructed according to regulation, which limits the size as sug. gested by us some time ago.
