"As you undoubtedly know, the Tran

ject of any needful changes in the law.
and particularly with reference to the
point which you raise. and as you doubt
less also know Is about ready to make
recommendations to the Legislature. 1t
will be more useful for you to discuss
the subject OF your letter with them
than with me. / disclaim ever having
had or exercised the power which you
say I have as matter of fact rather
than as a matter of law
II have no doubt that the Legisla-
ture will consider any recommendations
made by the Transit Commission upon
their merits precisely as they consider,
and as I wish them to consider, any
recommendations made by me, and I
am equally sure that the Transit Com
mission would be very glad to have your

requires that due regard shall be given
to such an estimate In determining the
figures at which the properties shall be
taken over. The commission is of the
opinion, however. that this fifth set OF
figures will not change materially the
aggregate allowance.
The report. which is a masterpiece oil
detail. was made Jointly by Johr6 III.
Madden, valuation engineer, and Fred
w. L.indars, chief accountant to the
commission. 1t incorporates exhaustive
inventories of each of the properties
covered and sets forth in detail all the
data upon which the several sets OF
valuations We're made, together with
elaborate financial and statistical ex-
hibits pertinent to the affairs of the
companies. The work was begun on
May 9. 1921, Immediately after the COM
mission took office. and was completed
In a little more than eight months,
which the commission regards as record
time.
Franchise Values Excluded.
At times there have been 40 men EN-.
ployed on the valuations staff. But the
payroll for all new .appointees to the
valuations bureau, exclusive of those
recruited from the permanent forces OF
the commission. did not exceed 10 per
cent of the total cost for completing
the appraisal.
Clarence J. Shearn, special counsel to
the Transit Commission, was again
present when the commission convened
yesterday afternoon. He placed Mr..
Madden in the witness chair and en-
tered in the record the precise methods
pursued by the bureau in reaching It's
conclusions.
In THIS way it was shown that, fol.
lowing the command OF the statute, the
bureau had excluded entirely from its
consideration franchisa or "going value"
of any kind and all existing leases en-.
joyed at present by rapid transit COM
panies No allowance was made for
any such values. There was included
in the report however, a great deal OF
property which may not be absorbed
ultimately under the plan of railway
reorganization. The bureau simply rec
commended to the commission its valua-
tions OF all the railway property there
Is. other than that already owned by
the city. leaving IL for the commission
not only to accept or reject or modify
it's findings, but also to determine for
itself Under the plan just which prop
critics shall be included.
Mr.. Madden also made 1t clear that
the figures representing capitalization
cover both operating property and non
operating property. such as real estate.
whereas the bureaus recommended
valuations refer only TO operating prop
erty.
The Transit Commission has sent
copies Of the valuations report 10 each
of the companies concerned. to each
committee OF security holders and to
each member of the city administration.
which was represented throughout yes
terdays hearing by William A. De-
Ford. Special Deputy Corporation
Counsel.

Ten Days to study Report.

Within that time the several groups of
companies will be required TO file with

diately thereafter will give willing

men escaped with slight bruises and
a severe shaking. The party was
coming from Tucson to attend the

Nsnmers was driving slowly be-
hind a car on the Tempe road just
before the accident, when, without
warning, the car in front stopped,
causing Summers to swerye quickly
into the opposite trafficway. AS he
turned out he was confronted with
the small boy on a bicycle. The wet
pavement did not permit of quick
stopping. so Summers took the only
course which seemed to offer under
the circumstances and plunged into
the ditch His head was caught be-
tween the steering wheel and the
frame of the car and held firmly un-
til his fellow passengers lifted the
framework. However, this caused
him nothing more serious than a
severe bruise on the neck.

Church Members
Urge Enforcing of
Prohibition Law

The members Of the First Baptist
church, in regular assembly, by
unanimous vote, passed the following
resolution:
Whereas. There have been many
recent attempts to ridicule the pro-
hibition of the liquor traffic and to
make light of the enforcement of
law, we, the members of the First
Baptist church of Phoenix, Rev. r.
Fl. Shanks, pastor, unanimously
adopt the following resolution:
Resolved, That we place ourselves
on record as being in hearty sym
pathy with the enforcement of law
and the integrity OF the constitution
of the United States of America;
"That we believe in the justice and
fairness of the eighteenth amend
ment to the constitution and the rea-
sonableness of the Nolstead act for
it's enforcement:
"That we view all violation of the
law as infringements of justice and
that every violation should be pun
ished by the assessment of the pen
alties attached
THAT we heartily approve the at
titude OF those public servants who
stand for law enforcement and JUS
tice. The public press and the Off
GERS of the law who stand by the
constitution have our sincere and
unanimous support. We commend
the editorial attitude OF The Republi-
can for it's outspolen utterances and
believe such attitude is not only
righteous but productive of much
