RATES ASKED
BY ROBERTS
Liberal Valuation Would Per-
nit Slash, He Says at
Close of Probe

The last act of the lengthy
Public Utilities Commission
hearing on rates of the Chesa-
peake and Potomac Telephone
Company was staged today
when final arguments were
made by both sides. Each was
limited to three hours.
Assistant Corporation Counsel
William A. Roberts contended
that the valuation of approx
mately 23,190,000 for the com.
pany's properties. submitted by
witnesses of the commission, was
decidedly liberal. He argued that
a 6 per cent return on such a
valuation would provide for q
decided reduction in rates. He
spoke for an hour and reserved
the remainder of his time for a
closing argument.
Dismissal of the case was asked
in arguments by r. A. Van Ors-
del and George P. Hoover, coun-
sci for the company. They at
tackled the valuation made by
the commission witnesses as in
sufficient and contended that
since the Public Utilities Commis-
sion has petition pending in
Equity Court asking for instruc-
tions concerning the elements of
valuation, rates should not be
reduced until the court has dis
posed of this petition.

Incidentally, there were 1895

Two policemen detailed to
No. 81 Police Radio Car last
night were slightly affected
by the fumes of water-soaked
tear gas bomb under the seat
of their car.

VET CAMP SITE

DYNAMITE
Justice Department Agents
Say They Unearthed 7
Sticks; No Guns Found

Seven and half sticks Of
dynamite were found at Camp
Marks, the principal camp Of
the bonus marchers in Ana
costa, according to investiga-
tors who reported on the mat
ter, it was learned today at
the Department of Justice.
This quantity did not comprise
the total amount hidden there, in
vestigators believe. There was no
additional information forthcoms
ing, however, nor was it known
whether responsible camp officials
knew of its presence.
So far as known, no dynamite,
guns or weapons of any sort we're
found at the So-called left wing"
headquarters of John Pace and
his group. Camp Marks and Camp
GlaSsford, the Pennsylvania Ave.
nue. encampment which was the
ultimate scene of fatal rioting,
were held entirely by nonradical
bonus veterans. so it was under
stood at the time of the bonus
army's sojourn in Washington.
The results of the investigation
will be made known to the Grand
Jury Friday, when the three
bonus army witnesses are expected
to tell their stories in detail. The
number and kind of guns found
at Camp Glassford, if any, or re-
ported to have been seen there by
the three witnesses, were matters
regarding which Department Of
Justice officials today professed to
have little information.
