UTILITIES CONTRACTS
ARE HELD VO|DABLE.
Can Be Cancelled If Rates Are
Discriminatory, Says Syme
in Light Case.

Contracts entered into by the public
utilities prior to the passage of the pub
lie utilities act may be declared null and
void by the Public Utilities Commission
If 1t is shown that the rates are dis
criminatOry, according to an opinion Of
Corporation Counsel Syme submitted to
the commission yesterday.
The opinion refers to contracts made
by the Potomac Electric Power Com
pany with four Of its subscribers. THE
Potomac Power Company is a public
service corporation and was such before
the enactment Of the public utilities
law" says the Corporation Counsel.
"An Of its contracts were made with
the full knowledge that Congress had
the right to regulate. standardize and
fix its rates within reasonable limita-
lions at any time. No private contract
1t could enter into could affect this right
of public regulation. To hold otherwise
would be contrary to every principle
OF public policy.
with the law otherwise, any public
service corporation could. by making
contracts with all Of It's customers, COM
pletely annul the control which Congress
has over its business as a public service
corporation
The Corporation Counsel suggests that
II q hearing IL desired by the contract
ing parties 1t be given them.

movement urged by the bureau. has
had good results. The number of deaths
for the year was 6S3 among 193.0S8 en-

ployed of 3H. This compares with the
death rate Of 391 for the year 1912, and
