Process of Distribution.
While Minnesota would be connect
ed with Georgia through high-poWer
transmission lines, the power gene
rated in that State would not actually
find it's way into Georgia. The way
it would work was illustrated as fol-
lows:
Minnesota would transmit power to
one end of the adjoining tranmlsslon
line and this second company, which
borrowed from Minnesota, would pass
on at the other end of its own Sys-
tenn an amount of power equal to
that 1t had taken from Minnesota.
This process of borrowing and pass
ing on would be continued in steps
of not more than $50 miles each until
the power is delivered where 1t is
needed
1t was pointed out that where any
connection had been made between
the transmission lines of various COM
panies surplus power capacity is pass
ed on from one line to another just
as surplus railroad cars are borrowed

HEAVY SUM LOST

Counsel Uncertain Nickel

"S75O,OO0 Guess"

Whether the Van Sweringen broth

if they can meet the views of the In
terstate Commerce Commission, w. A.
Colston, chief counsel of the Nickel
Plate interests, said here today.
He referred to the amount spent by
the New Nickel Plate committee in fur
thering the merger case, but he added
that the total cost of the effort, in all
of it's ramifications, would run to fig
ure between two and three million dol
lars.
Mr.. Colston said that, in his opinion,
the commission did not indicate very
clearly whether a reopening of the
case was possible, but he added that
SO long as final consummation of the
project was delayed transportation in
terests of the country would be suffer
ing serious injury. Savings under the
merger alone, amounting to $6.000,0 900
