Including property additions during
1927 and the Washington Rapid Transit
Co. will undoubtedly bring the valua-
ton to over $62,500,00O.
Cut Of $4,000. 900.
ut is, therefore, with a feeling Of no
little pride that I am able to report
ors OF the Capital Traction Co. and the
Washington Railway Il Electric Co.
have consented to proceed with a uni
flcation on this basis. including the
properties OF the Washington Rapid
Transit Co. OF $4,000. 900 for rate max
ing purposes. I believe they deserve
the commentator of the public OF the
District OF Columbia and OF the metro
politan area for their concessions in
this regard. inasmuch as such rate base
| is not less than $4,000 900 below that
to which they are clearly entitled.
49, Rate Of return
Another point Of major discussion
was the rate of return upon the agreed
base value. The companies contended.
and not without merit. that the risks
portation Justify rate of return model
ed upon broad and generous lines.
They pointed out that in many instances
throughout the country, the courts have
held that per cent is fair return in
the field OF urban and interurban trans.
portation. and that In the case OF an
other public utility right here in the
District Of Columbia return OF IT,
per cent upon an agreed valuation has
been allowed.
Added Concession Made.
Again the writer argued the equities
OF the case as between the public serv-
ed and the companies. and insisted that
per cent. no more. no less. would alone
meet the eXigencies Of the occasion. 1t
Is again only fair to point out that in
finally conceding the point the COM
panies did so in spirit OF further con-
cession to the object sought.
80 Metropolitan area
while not mentioned in the unifica-
ton agreement like several other mat
tiers that appear TO be beyond the prov
ince OF the existing companies I be.
lieve very careful consideration should
be given TO the question OF requesting
Congress to extend the jurisdiction OF
the Public Utilities Commission of the
District OF Columbia so as to include
electric railways and buses operating
| between the city proper and the metro
politan area. A very large proportion
Of the business done by such lines is

Constitution Of the United States. as
expressed in innumerable decisions by
courts Of last resort. Obviously. there
fore, this feature of my original susges-
ton had to be abandoned.
People Are Represented.
"As a partial substitute therefor the
companies have agreed that three OF
the board Of directors Of the new or
consolidated company shall be designat-
ed by proper District officials to rep
resent the public. This means that in
addition to the regulation and super
vision which will continue to be oxer-
cised by the Public Utilities Commission
as at present. the interests of the public
will be safeguarded on the board of d.
rectors itself, and that as result there
OF the board will be responsive to nublic
opinion. I naturally assume that all or
practically all OF the remaining directors
to be elected by the stockholders will be
residents OF Washington. and therefore
II appears certain that the management
OF the unified company will be anxious
at all times to work for the best in
tercSts of the National Capital, This
agreement to have three public directors
I consider very real advance as aSSur-
ing a policy of the public be pleased.
Valuation at $50. 100000.
80. Valuation
This. as is usual in such cases. hes
proved the most difficult problem in the
negotiations. While 1t is true las
pointed out by the companieS) that my
original valuation of all the transit
properties within the metropolitan
area OF the District Of $4,000. 900 car
ried with it guaranteed return OF Z
per cent. saw insufficient reason
through mere alteration OF the plan.
| to make any change in that figure. l
freely admit that the figure was based
upon the equities of the situation,
| rather than upon the usual formula
applying in such cases. but being firm
| " convinced that unless usual formu-
| las could be abandoned in favor OF a
| fair spirit of give and take. no merger
would ever be agreed upon. stuck dill
gently to the arguments employed In
| the former case and insisted upon fifty
millions as the deprecated value Of the
physical properties for rate-making
purposes.
In all fairness 1t must be admitted
that the companies. from strictly
| legal standpoint. are entitled to rate
base value far in excess OF this sum.
as the following figures will clearly in
dictate. I believe. however. that no
higher figure is feasible in the circum-
stances and as major concession to
the object sought. the companies finally
conceded the point.
