RATE CUT

Ham Protests Fractional
Tariffs, Saying 1t Boosts
Costs of Bookkeeping.

A slight reduction in the rates OF
the Potomac Electric Power Com
pany may be ordered by the Public
Utilities Commission as a result or
the hearing yesterday.
1t Is believed likely, however, that

1t will not be made effective until

Last April the commission ordered

At yesterdays hearing William F.
Ham, president of the power com

Engineer Commissioner Keller said
today the commission would give
serious consideration to this claim of
the company in its forthcoming de-
cision.
To Decide Involved Question.
One Of the most involved matters to
be decided in connection with the
power company's rate case is the
question of whether the accrued de-
probation funds should be deducted
from the fair value of the property
for rate-making purposes.
Even IL the commission does reduce
the rate of 7.67 cents per kilowatt
hour at this time the company will
continue to collect the old rate OF 10
cents per kilowatt hour until the
United States Supreme Court passes
upon the valuation placed on the
power company's property by the
commission In 1917.

LONDON SHOWS CONCERN.

LONDON, February 1.-The tension
between the allied troops and the
population of Essen is noticeably
more marked and is causing concern,
says Reuters dispatch from the oc-
cupied city. The feeling has been EN-,
bittered by the numerous deporta-
tions which are reliably estimated to
exceed eighty in number. Neutral
observers, the correspondent adds
believe that the increased severity Of
the occupying forces has been large
ly due to the fact that not a ton of
Ruhr coal has gone to France since
the occupation.
A Reuters dispatch from Cologne
says the French authorities have in
formed the German newspaper edit
ors that all derogatory references to
the French are prohibited. The edit

given following the introduction of
a resolution in the Senate, asking
such a probe. The Commissioners
reply follows:
''The Commissioners can see no OBJ
lection to the passage of the resolu-'
tion, and, on the contrary. believe
that any steps taken to prevent the
loss of life and damage to property
by reason of the use of the highways
by automobile traffic should be of
great benefit. The Commissioners
have adopted regulations to govern
this traffic, and endeavor to enforce
them. With the limited personnel of

Glad to Cooperate.
Last November the Commissioners
set aside Safety week, and urged an
organized community effort to check
the causes of the accidents which
brought about these deaths and in
juries. They also approved a move
ment organized by citizens for the
appointment of a safety committee.
More recently the Commissioners
appointed traffic committee to
study tran1c ndltlonS In the District,
and to suggest means to make the
streets safe as possible.
"The Commissioners hope, through
the efforts that they have thus inau-
gurated, to improve the present traf-

Continued from First Paxe)
into the Ruhr zone. the situation is
just as hopelessly deadlocked as II
was when the Paris conference broke
up. The balance sheet as seen from
the German side may indicate a
slight advantage for the French, in
view of the fact that no general
strike has yet been called, as the
Germans threatened, nor has any
other serious resistance been offered
them.
Today the second phase of the
French Ruhr expedition begins, and
even now Germany plans to stick to
the present policy OF passive resist
ance. According to the German view
the developments which will follow
tier around the Ruhr valley are likely
to be these:
inside of a few days all railroad
communication in the Ruhr district
Will be interrupted and not a single
passenger or freight train will be rum
ming from the occupied territory,
either to unoccupied Germany or TO
France or Belgium.
Great Congestion Seen.
Possibly the French might be able
to operate a few lines for the purpose
OF getting food supplies and reinforce
ment, but the chances are that the
congestion will be SO great that not
even these few trains will be able
to get through.
Germans also emphasize the point
that the French will be unable to
carry out the plan of introducing new
money into the Ruhr district and
the Rhineland. II France should try TO
circulate francs into this territory il
is claimed that she would have to
supply money enough to meet the
needs of 100000 people. with the
franc already dropping heavily, It is
believed here that such q great In :
crease in French paper money will
cause the rate Of exchange to fall stiIl
lower and that France will lose far
more than she can possibly gain.
Then, too, IL is claimed here that a
large part of the population IN the
occupied area would refuse to accept
this currency.
In his talk with the newspaper man
chancellor Cuno laid great stress on
the futflfty OF the French action. He
said that In order to collect the ridi-
culousiy small sum Of $4,000, 900 gold
marks, which Germany was short in
her reparatfons payments, France had
sent an army OF $4,000 men into the
Ruhr whose maintenance there would
cost 100000 gold marks daily, or with
in three months as much as the
amount In question.

THE truth is that outside of those

street railway companies in some
way, public opinion is almost unani :
nous in favor of reduction of the
street car fares in this CITY, These

they cannot remain. They are obliged
