PEPC0 VALUATION
MOTION TOMORROW
Supreme Court to Hear Plea
for Advance of Case on
Calendar.

The Public tilities Commission will
present to the United States Supreme
Court tomorrow a motion to advance
on the calendar the Potomac Electric
Power valuation case. The motion
for an early hearing will be present
ed by Conrad H. Syme, special counsel
for the commission, who is asso-
ciated with Corporation Counsel
stephens in defending the value
placed on the power plant by the
District authorities.
The disposition Of a fund of more
than 100000 hinges on the deci-
sion OF the Supreme Court in this
suit II the commissions valuation
is sustained that vast sum will be re-
turned to the users Of electricity.
III the company wins it will get the
nest egg.
Case Five Years Old.
This litigation has been in the
courts since 1917, when the .ofnmjs
sion. after announcing the value it
placed on the power property, order
ed reduction from 10 to 8 cents per
kl10watt TO- hour In the electric rate.
The company Immediately contested
the valuation In the District Supreme
Court. and obtained an Injunction re-
straining the commission from en-
forcing the lower rate pending settle
ment of the valuation dispute.
Under the terms of the Injunction
the consumers of current have con-
t1nued to pay the 10-cent rate, the
company keeping s cents and i'm
pounding the other cents.
Both Sides Win.
While the legal hottlo vrae h.;,n
waged in the District Supreme Court
and the Court OF Appeals the inn
pounded fund grew gradually into
thousands and then into millions
The Commissioners won the first
skirrnish in the District Supreme Court
when the late Justice Gould upheld the
commissions valuation, on which the
lower rate was based The company
appealed and evened the score by win
ming verdict in the Appellate Court.
The commission then took the case to
the United States Supreme Court.

These gallant horses. whose mission

The powerful, chuggins motor nsine

effectual than the motor to awaken
every citizen to the importance of fire

Although neither the Commissioners
nor Director OF the Budget Lord

heads that the District expense ac-
count for next year should not be

District officials have felt confident
since their conference with the budget

The Commissioners have endeavored

applied to the requests of the various
