PLANT NEEDS
SIX MILLIONS
Ten-Year Development Project
Is Outlined to Utilities
Commission.
EXPERT PRESENTS FIGURES
Voices Opposition to Any Reduc-
ton in Present Revenues
From Service.

A ten-year development program,
including the expenditure of $685.
600, has been recommended to the
Potomac Electric Power Company II
it desires to supply the future needs
of the city Of Washington.
This was brought out today when
Col. Peter Junkersfeld, consulting
engineer of Stone 4 Webster, Inc,
who has made q survey Of the local
electlic situation, testified at the
public hearing before the Public
Utilities Commission on electric
rates.
These Agures were presented to
show the need for tie continuation

PRESENT RATE NEEDED.
Colonel Junkersfeld declared that
additions should be made to the Ben
ming plant of the company, instead OF
erecting a new plant. He stated that
in 1923 another rturbo-generator would
be needed and another in 1928. A
100000 gear switch is also needed.
he said.
The engineer estimates the foll3w-
ing expenditures for additions: 1921.
$4,000: 1922. s5s7.O00; 1923. s1,1s1.-
900; 1924. $3.50, 600; 1925. $965.O00; 1926.
'S3s4, 900; 1927. s5l1,000; 1928, $1,25s,-
600: 1923, $211, 900. and 1890, $267,000.
Colonel Junkersfeld declared that
he had estimated that the business of
the Potomac Electric Power Company
would increase during the next ten
years on an average of 1000 kilowats
year.
ADDITIONS NECESSARY.
The high cost OF money was dis
cussed at length this morning by
rany officials. Figures showing rates
paid by various other companies,
ranging from 1-6 per cent to more
than per cent, were offered by the
company.
Col. Jupkerfeld declared that the
recommended additions to the COM
pany were absolutely necessary in
order to permit the company to keep
pace with the citys growth. He also
tetsified that an unforeseen increase
in the business OF the company would
necessitate the installation of the
costly generator in 1922, a year be-
fore the date called for in the develop
ment program.
1t was brought out during the hear
ing that the company distributes year
1y In the neighborhood OF $4,000, 900
kilowatt hours of electric current.
