GAR Line VALUE

Continued from First Page.)
Hoehling Of the District Supreme
Court the results OF q revised valua-
ton based on a decision Of the
Court OF Appeals which provides
that increased costs between 1914
and present day costs be taken into
consideration in establishing a valua.
ton.
1t is understood that both the
commission and company will pres
ent a figure approximately the
same. This will be between $685.
100000 and 26,0O0, 900. The valua-
ton now. in use is approximately
$17.5O0,000.
If both the Commission and COM
pany have approximately the same
figure, Justice Hoehling, undoubted.
ly will approve either one or the
other, thus ending this phase cf
the case.
However, another important
point Is $5,150.000 which the COM
pany claims for the franchise, GO
ing concern and other intangibles
which the company holds through
the purchase Of the Washington.
Georgetown Railway Company some
years ago.
The Commission disapproves the
! claim and is fighting it vigorously.
Justice HGehling probably will make
decision on this point next week.
1t will be considered separately
from the question of increased
prices.
In 1914 the Commission estab.
lished values for the Potomac Elec.
trio Power Company, Capital Trac-
tion and other utilities. The cleo.
trio and traction companies ap-
pealed to. the courts. After several
years litigation. the Court of Ap-
peals declared the Commission in
error for not allowing in the cleo.
trio company valuation for in.
creased prices. The valuation of
this corporation was revised in ac.
cordance with this decision.
Several months ago the, traction
case came before Iustice Hoehllng.
He directed both the company and
commission to~sublnit a valuation
based on the decision of the Court
OF Appeals. 1t is this information
which will be furnished next week.
The commission win meet Monday
morning to definitely set it's figure
for the court.
The company undoubtedly will get
a material increase in valuation.
Under the present value it Is now
earning only about Z per cent. A
material increase would lower the
company's earnings and put them
in position to demand higher fares.
The company, however, has no: in
