FIRM ASKS
TO ISSUE STOCK
Authorization of $5,957,721
Sale Requested to Pay for
improvements.

The Potomac Electric Power Co. to-
day applied to the Public Utilities
Commission for authority to issue and
sell SIS ,957 ,721.S4 of 51a per cent pre-
ferred stock, issue of 1927.
The proceeds from the sale of this
big issue are to be used in reimburs
ing the company for the actual cost of
extensions, additions, betterments and
improvements which have already
been carried out or are now in prog
ress of completion.
Part of the proceeds will also be
used to retire the general and refund
ing mortgage per cent 20-year
series "A" gold bonds, which were
authorized by the Public Utilities Com
mission on August IS, 1921, and sold
to the amount of $2,200,000. These
bonds are very widely held by in
vestors in Washington and elsewhere
President w. F. Ham stated today
that it is not intended to issue more
than $2,50O,000 of this stock at the
present time unless there is a heavy
oversubscription. In the case of the
last stock issue, there was a tremen-
dous oversubscription, total requests
reaching over $4,000, 900.
The rate on this issue is IL per cent
under that of the present outstanding
stock. but it is believed that there will
be a strong demand for the new stock.
Conditions now prevailing in the
money market led the directors to
believe that 5R per cent would be
satisfactory rate.
The company has extensive i'm
provements under way at Benning
which will take large amount of the
new funds. The directors gave the
matter very careful consideration be-
fore deciding to issue stock instead of
bonds.
1t is now intended to place the new
stock on sale Immediately after the
approval of the Public Utilities Com
mission has been received.

ROBINSON ASSA|LS

InSinuateS Democratic Chair
man Used Powers as Po-
Iitical Weapon.

By the Associated Press.
The lone hand played by Senator
Reed, Democrat. Missouri, as chair
man of the special campaign funds
investigating committee was assailed
in the Senate by Senator Robinson,
Republican, Indiana, as the Missouri
Senator sought to extend the life of
his committee over the approaching
congressional recess.
Senator Robinson questioned the
authority of Senator Reed to enter
Indiana in his investigations, declar
ing no charges of corruption in the
primary there had been made.
Assails Probe i'm State.
Assailing the investigation by "the
venerable. gray-haired Senator from
Missouri" Senator Robinson said he
came to Indianapolis Sitting alone
on the front seat of a vehicle which
had degenerated into a garbage
wagon"
Here came one man from the op.
posite party into Indiana three weeks
before the election, widely advertis-
ing for information which might help
defeat the Republican party" Robin
son continued. There was no oppor-
tunity to cross-examine the witnesses
he heard. This One-man committee of
the opposite party then went to the
hospital where my colleague, Senator
Watson. was a patient.
He and the reporters then went to
the Federal Court Building, crying for
witnesses
Charges Political Move.
And there he basked further in
the sunlight of publicity. Witnesses
were heard. but no rules of evidence
applied. Leading questions were
asked, but only questions which would
embarrass the Republican party with
the election three weeks away"
Senator Robinson admitted the
power of the committee to go into
Pennsylvania and Illinois and he
described the results obtained there
as wholesome and In the interests Of
good government"
Senator Robinson also opposed
granting Reeds committee authority
to hold hearings during the congress.

he did not know that Reed would do
so, it would give him the opportunity
to go into States and get delegates

'Insinuation is the last refuge of n

Senator Robinson had concluded
"A manly man stands up like a man
