Richmond Street Car business

wv EILE Engineer Beeler has not yet
w filed that portion of his report Gov
erng the finding OF fair value OF the VIZ
sinia Railway and Power Company's street
railway property i'll this city, he has, Ill
the first section. given certain indications
that may point TO what that finding Will
be. Following his discussion of the COM
pany's present method OF providing re-
serve for requirements due to wear ana
obsolescence, Mr.. Beeler says the sum so set
aside as depreciation reserve should be an
nually equal to 9 12 per cent OF the &C
cumulated investment in property. In the
table that follows, he gives the amount
that should have been SO reserved from
1910 to date and for 1921 he says ii should
have been S172,S92.95. a simple calcula-
lion shows that this represents an invest
ment valuation OF $6,9l5,T1S.
II does not necessarily follow that MT.
Beeler will give this sum as his finding OF
fair value for ratc-making purposes, but
there is at least strong presumption that
lie will choose the investment costs rather
han reproduction basis, since he uses the
former in calculating reserve ii his re-
port arrives at a value OF about $7,000,0o0,
It will be far below that claimed by the
company based on the valuation made for
il by Stone d Webster. Such conclusion
might OF might not SldHu the test Oh the
courts, for, although the Supreme Court
IN the Petersburg gas case said the State
Corporation Commission gave too great
weight To pre-war costs and did not al
low the company enough appreciation in
property value to take care Of higher price
levels, 1t may be that strictly historical
method would stand
Al all e--nls, even If Mr. Beelcr arrives
~ AN approximate. value OF only $1,000
900. it is evident from that part Of his re-
port already available. that the Virgna
Railway Company has not since war days
earned return on that sum. For the
wear ended June 30, 1919, the adjusted net
income reported by Mr.. Beeler was about
2 per cont on S7,O00,OO0; for the year

Tor the freedom OF the Dardanelles straits
both for merchant and war vessels. For
other considerations involved in the nego-
tiations. it is possible that these powers
might be willing to agree to Turkish re-
strictlons upon the passage OF warships.
Tho latest development in tho discussions
indicates that America stands pat in claim
ing the right to send it's warships through
the straits or anywhere else il desires In
protection OF It's interests and OF the safe

They assure Americans and Europeans IN
Turkey OF n square deal Foreigners
charged with ofenses cannot be judged by

From the Turkish standpoint these capitu-
iationS constitute an insult, an abomination,
a disgrace. emphasizing their lack OF COM
