Objects to Delay in
City's Appraisal of
Telephone Property
PROTEST WILL
HAVE NO EFFECT
Cant Tell Us How to
Proceed" Says Cor
pOratiOn Counsel

A fight is brewing between the
state railroad commission and the
city over the appraisal which Ed
ward p. Burch Is making OF the
Michigan State Telephone Co.'S
property in Detroit In connection
with the application of the COM
pany for permission to advance its
rates. The commission has sent a
lengthy communication to Corpora
ton Counsel Harry J. Dingeman, ar
raigning the city appraiser for con-
suming too much time in his work
and calling a meeting to be held in
the council chamber at 10:30 o'clock
on the morning Of Jan. IL. at which
time Mr.. Burch will be asked by the
commission to make a complete re-
port OF the work he has accom-
plished to date.
The letter. which Is signed by
Cassius l.. Glasgow. suggested that
In spirit Of fairness" Mr. Burch
ought to turn portions Of his ap-
praisal work over to the telephone
company's engineers from time to
time. so as not to leave all the
checking and comparison to be done
after the work is actually finished.
Commissioner Glasgow intimates
that II Ia to Mr.. Burch's advantage
TO remain on the city payroll "a long
as possible. The commission will
require signed stipulations before
any future adjournmcnts OF the ap-
praisal hearing will be granted.
The commission insists. contrary
to the Views held by Mr.. Burch and
Corporation Counsel Dingeman, that
an agreement was made In the fret
hearing before the commission that
Mr.. Burch was not to make an ap-
praisal for the city. but that q check
of the appraisal already furnished
by the telephone companN was what
was desired.
"when Mr.. Burch continues TO
make a complete appraisal OF the
telephone property he does 80 con
trary to the wish of the commits
bion." states the letter,
Therefore. We believe that Il 10
up TO Mr. Burch 10 be In a position
to defend his action in this forth

tion the commission will take as
