Mr. Frederick H. Wood, of New York City, for plaintiffs in error.

Mr. George P. Nicholson, of New York City, for respondent.

PER CURIAM.

The writs of error are dismissed for lack of jurisdiction in that the writs herein are not directed to a court, but to an administrative commission. Mr. Justice McREYNOLDS, Mr. Justice SANFORD, and Mr. Justice STONE entertain a different view.

The motions to amend the writs of error, or for other appropriate relief in the premises, or that the writs of error be treated as petitions for certiorari to the Court of Appeals of the State of New York, are denied.[ Staten Island Rapid Tran.
