Attack on Depreciation Figure
To Be Halted If Payments
Are Made at Once

If the telephone company will
drop its appeal and pay its sub
scribers the $786,O0O due them
under the rate decision of the
Supreme Court of the District Of
Columbia, the Public Utilities
Commission may cease it's war
fare on the telephone company'S
depreciation figures. In other
words, the commission seems in
clined to trade technicalities for
cash.
This is the situation today as
it developed in the offices of VIII
liam A. Roberts, Peoples Counsel,
who refrained from advising the
telephone company WI y; to do
but at the same time clearly
pointed out that the laws delays
could be invoked to prevent tele-
phone subscribers from receiving
the 10 per cent refund ordered
by Judge Adkins decree until
sometime in 1885 instead of this
year.
Company Fights Decree
The decree in this case was
signed yesterday in Boston by
Judge Adkins, who is on vaca-
tion. The telephone company i'm.
mediately took steps which would
lead to an appeal if the company
cares to make one. Speaking Of
this situation, Peoples Counsel
Roberts today said:
''If the company carries out
its intention to appeal, there
will of course be no return Of
the amounts impOunded and no
reduction of rates until the ap-
peal is terminated.
CROSS APPEAL NOTED
''In view of the cOmpany'S
notation of appeal, the Public
Utilities Commission has noted
a cross appeal as to. the depre-
citation order involved in the
same case, and as to certain
elements of the findings Of the
court.
although these questions are
important / am confident that
the commission would sacrifice
the opportunity for q more ia
vOrable solution in the Court
of Appeals if the company
abandOns its appeal, so that
the beneficial effects of the
rate reduction and distribution
of excess collections might take
place as soon as possible"

Washington, March 1.-tReThe
administrations desire to try present
monetary plans for at least the re-
mainder Of this fiscal year before q

conveyed to congress Thursday by
Secretary Morgenthau.
Testifying to house banking SUBJ

central federal authority with sole
currency issuing powers, Morgenthau
said:
what the future monetary policy
Of our country should be don't think
anybody is sufficiently wise to tell
you because we haven't had enough
experience"
Recounting steps that have been
taken by the administration. he
added:
ut is impossible to tell what the
future will be. I believe that we need
more experience and time to tell us
what is the best way to handle none
tary problems before we get into any
thing specific or definite as is con-
templated, perhaps, In this bill.
I'VE hope that congress will give
US at least the balance of this year to
work on our present plan. Then we
will know little more about It."
Il take it," asked Representative
Hancock (Dem., N. c., that your
position is that the present monetary
policy is more or less an experiment.
and 1t Is not your recommendation
that congress take any action to
change the present system?"
That's right" Morgenthau an
swered.
