Kaye Don Denies Break
With Builder of Car for
Speed Trials.

BIZ United Press
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. March
22.-The future of Kaye Don's at
temptS to break the worlds auto
mobile records today seemed to be
i'll the hands of the gods Of wind
and sea, and perhaps of Madame
Grundy.
Don and his car both are ready
for the test, as soon as the winds
whip up the ocean into a sufficient
fury to smooth out Daytona'S sands.
Speaking at a dinner given in his
honor by the city Friday night, Don
expressed confidence that when
conditions are right he would be
able to break the record now held
by his countryman, Major H. o. D.
Segrave, Of 231.36 miles per hour.
At the same time, Don gave pub
lie recognition to the stories of dis
order III his camp.
IT want to deny at this time" ne
said, published reports that there
is friction between myself and Louis
CoateIen, designer of my car.
Ever since Coatelen's arrival we
have been working in complete
harmony"
Don had in mind particularly O.
story which went so far as TO say
trouble between Don and Coatelen
threatened to cause abandonment
of the speed trials.
But in the meantime, Madame
Grundy had filled Daytona with
many rumors. One could hear IN
the streets Friday night that Don
was going home, that he had broken
with all around him and that there
had been bitter quarels.

UTILITY MERCER
LEFT IN HANDS
OF COMMISSION
Counsel Finish Arguments;
Given Is Days in Which
to File Briefs.

Final decision in the two-year-old
insult utilities $4,000, 900 merger
case will be forthcoming in another
month or two.
: Oral arguments in the matter
closed Friday afternoon and COM
missioner Howell Ellis, who pre-
sided, gave each side fifteen days
TO file briefs.
The commission then will decide,
or evade, the question of whether
or not they have jurisdiction in the
matter at all.
If they do not decide this ques-
ton, or accept jurisdiction, they
either will affirm or deny the
merger on the evidence. All indi-
cations are that denial, or dismissal,
will be the outcome.
File to Dismiss
Opposition counsel at the opening
of the hearing several months ago
filed motion to dismiss.
Granting this petition will make
fair regulation impossible" Harvey
Harmon, former commissioner and
now chief opposition counsel, de-
clared in closing arguments before
the commission Friday afternoon.
THE 271 towns and cities involved
will be placed in an arbitrary claSsi-
fication and rate relief will be prac-
tically impossible. The law does not
recognize anything but the used and
useful property theory in rate max
ing and doesn't provide for its sep
aration according to specific use.
This will be one huge utility,
including electric, gas, water and
ice plants, as well as interurban
lines and all the property will be
valued in making the rates"
Theory Is ExpOded
This theory was exploded in final
argument by David E. Watson of
the insult counsel, new president
of the T. H, I. & E, one Of the
utilities involved in the merger.
He pointed out that even now
an electric rate petition for Terre
Haute is pending before the COM
mission, and that certainly commits
sioners do not intend to evaluate the
interurban property to decide the
light rate, although both are T. H,
I. & E. properties
Used and useful" Watson ex-
planned, means used and useful in
producing the electricity, gas or
water involved
Save the interurban lines by
turning them over to insult" was
the burden of his final plea.
AT the close, P. J. Lucey, insult
counsel from Chicago, thanked COM
missioners for their intelligent con-
sideration of the petition, and even
lauded the commission appraisal,
which Is $30,0O0,000 under Insults.
Not Finance Amateurs.
1--WE are not amateurs in utility
operations and finance" he as
serted. The insult organization is
recognized as the best operator in
the United States. We are here to
volunteer to take over Indiana util-
tiles with interurban lines that now
are almost defunct and revitalize
them with money and manage
ment."
Preceding Harmon's argument,
Oscar Pond of the opposition coun-
sci, asserted that such huge COM
bination of unlike utilities will make
individual rights practically impos-
Sible
He asserted that he considered
the issuance of -par-value stock
for utilities an effort to circumvent
commission control over financing.
Oscar Smith of the opposition
counsel contended that the paying
utilities will be made support the
profitable ones if the merger is
