CONTINUED From Page One.)
the utilities act which provides that the
commission must value the property Of
all public utilities Mr.. Groninger insisted
further that there can not be two stand
ards Of valuation, one for rate making
purposes and one for the issuance Of Sc
curities.
TELLS OF VALUE
JUGGLIN0.
Experts, accountants and lawyers
have played with and conjured with this
word value until we hardly know what
1t means" Mr.. Groninger said. I'VE
have exchange value, reproduction value,
cost value and what the commission
has termed fair value As a matter Of
common honesty there can be only one
value, and that value must be founded
on cost less depreciation"
Mr.. Groninger then went into the
values OF the various utilities involved
but was interrupted by Commissioner
Edgar NJ. Blessing, who said the dis
cussion Of theories Of valuation would
be a waste Of time.
''Do you consider S17,496000 a fair
value Of this property" Mr.. Groninger
asked.
I'VE do" Mr. Blessing replied.
"Then why do you say this value is for
sale only and not for rate making pur-
poses7" Mr.. Groninger countered.
VAN AUKEN TELLS HOW
VALUATION WAS REACHED.
At this point Commissioner Glenn Van
Auken undertook to explain how the
valuation was arrived at. He said the
property of the Indiana Railways and
Light Company at Kokomo was valued
on basis of average costs for the ten
years, including 1920, and that if the
same basis were used on all the proper
ties the value would be $4,000 900. He
said the commission thought possibly
this would not be fair and so took the
year average, including 1919 He
said this gave a valuation Of $4,000, 900,
which the commission arbitrarily reduced
to s17e5O0, 900.
Mr.. Ashby argued that the new con-
Germ cannot operate in Indiana cities
without franchises or indeterminate per
n1its and that it has neither. He also
argued that the sale Of the utilities is to
be accomplished through the Merchants
Public Utility Company and the Ameri-
can Public Utility Company, other parts
Of the Brewer interests which control the
Indiana Electric Corporation and that for
this reason the sale is not bona fde.
