81 MILLION SET
IN TELEPHONE
VALUATION
P. U. C. Engineer at Hearing
Bases Replacement Figure
on 1924 Data and Index

An estimate of $31, 1892, 104
as the cost of reproducing
properties of the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Com
pany was submitted today
when the Public Utilities Com
mission resumed its public
hearing on telephone rates.
Thomas r. Tate, valuation
engineer of the commission, made
the estimate as of last December
81.
Cites 1924 Figure
He explained that he arrived
at the rate base by taking the
company's valuation of 1924, ap-
plying index prices to it and add
ing book costs of net additions
and betterments to date.
Practically all of the session
was taken up with the introduc-
ton of charts and figures show
ing the rise and decline of index
prices from 1924 to the present
time. These showed that 1929
was the peak year.
Recess Ends
The hearing was resumed after
two weeks recess, which was
caused by failure of the company
to comply with the commissions
request for statistics relating to
costs of various types of service.
The company's legal staff at
the hearing was enlarged today
when George P. Hoover appeared
to aid r. A. Van Orsdel in pre-
senting the company's case.
This move was taken as evi-
dence of the company's intention
to put up a stiff fight against
any order of the commission for
a reduction in rates.
