WHITE-COLLAR JOB

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. "a. = Ap-
praising electric public utility proper
ties in California may look to the cas-
ual visitor at railroad commission
hearings like white-collar job to be
performed at a mahogany desk, but
but in reality, according to engineers
of the comm .s5ion, it includes crawl
ing down manholes to inventory un-
derground cable conduits, counting
thousands of poles and transmission
towers, examining crossarms and in
sulators and inspecting ditch-tenders'
cabins, roads and trails.
Snowshoe trips over mountain
trails to list poles and lines are re-
ported as of frequent occurrence.
Counting ties, wheelbarrows and
shovels is part of the work of ap-
praising street or steam railways, the
engineers say, while in warehouse
valuation the task covers everything
from a scoop shovel to a grain ele-
vator, including the sackman's needle
and palm and the scale and imple-
mentS used for sampling.
