READY TO Use GREAT
FALLS WATER POWER
Vice President Ham Discusses Project
With Public Utilities Body.

In the course of his testimony before
the Public Utilities Commission yester-
day. w. F. Ham, vice president OF the
Potomac Electric Power Company, said
the company had plans for the develop
ment of its Great Falls power site and
will utilize them as soon as the price OF
coal is so high that it isn't economical
to generate electric current by steam
power.
He also said that the company
through its parent corporation, tine
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany, intends to build central station
car barns, offices. etc, on the site or the
CID Graceland Cemetery, near Ftfteenth
and II streets northeast.
On the books OF the power company the
Great Falls site is entered at S.oOo,OOo
That is the amount of stock issued to'
its purchase in 1872
The vice president was asked about the
payment of $550,000 in stock to oscar L.
Crosby and Charles A. Lee at the time
of the purchase Of the lexington power
plant. Ham said that it was because OF
the fact that these two men had pur-
chased the old Potomac Electric Power
Company when it was practically bank
rupt and developed the property which
laid the foundation for the present wash
ington Railway and Electric Company.
1t Is expected by the Commission that
the hearing will be concluded by New
