to court and secured an injunction re-
straining the commission from putting
its order into effect, but afterward a
compromise was reached among the
parties, including the then Peoples
Counsel, Ralph B. F1eharty.
According to the terms OF the COM
promise, the court discontinued its in
junction against the commission, the
commission "set aside rescinded, and
held for naught" the valuation that
had been made, and put a compromise
rate into effect for two years Begin
ming June /, 1927 This order, accord
ingly, expired June !, 1929, but the
rates fixed under the order have been
allowed to remain undisturbed. Put
in the picturesque language OF Mr..
Clayton, but today, and for the last
two years, company's rates and 'valu-
ation,' the futurity twins beQueathed
by judicial decree, have enjoyed an
unbroken sleep in the cradle OF the
commission"
Further supporting his objection to
the issuance by the company of $1,000
900 additional common stock, Mr.. Clay
ton points out that there are no bonds
in the company's capital structure and
suggests that $7,O0O.000 of bonds, in
stead of additional stock, be issued If
the company needs capital. The COM
panys capitalization is now $4,000, 900
in common stock, all held by the
American Telephone e. Telegraph Co.
The companys charter. as amended,
gives 1t the right to issue $4,000, 900
worth of stock. Last September with
out seeking the permission Of the COM
mission. the company issued $4,000, 900
in common stock TO the A. T. g. T., but
on objection raised by the commission
that such proceeding was illegal, 1t
Cancelled the issue.

TELEPHONE RATES
HIT BY PROTESTORS
Citizens Federation Moves
to Block $1,000, 900
of New Stock.

William NICK. Clayton, representing
the Federation of Citizens Associations,
today filed with the Public Utilities
Commission a formal objection in writ
ing to the Chesapeake 81 Potomac Tele-
phone Co. request for permission to
issues $7,0o0,000 additional common
stock.
The position taken by Mr.. Clayton in
his objection, however, does not confine
itself to the issue of the stock, but is,
by implication an attack upon the rates
charged by the company for telephone
service. 1t is regarded as the forerun-
ner of fight on telephone rates some
what similar to the one being waged on
electric rates.
Claims Order Expired.
Telephone rates, Mr.. Clayton pointed
out, are now not fixed by anything.
There is no valuation of the telephone
company in existence, he says, and the
rates now charged were included IN a
compromise order which by its own pro-
visions expired more than two years
ago and has never been revived. The
rates ever since have been charged by
the company without interference from
the commission.
The history of this situation, as out
lined in the Clayton objection, is briefly
as follows: In 1924 the federation COM
planned that the tolls and charges for
telephone service were unreaSonably
high and on this complaint the COM
mission made a valuation of the COM
pany as a result of which it ordered
the rates reduced. The company went
