BERN, Switzerland, March 2.-The
Swiss Telegraphic Agency reported
from Rome last night that Vatican
circles, speculating on the subjects
OF conferences between Pope Plus
and Archbishop Francis ]. Spellman
of New York. had suggested that one
OF the aims might be q proposal by
The Pope banning some forms of war

If this is true, the agency said, the
proposal undoubtedly would include
the bombing Of civilian populations.
The dispatch declared that moth

ferences, which are shrouded in
deepest secrecy and attended by no
other persons" but pointed out that
in q recent declaration Pope Plus
lamented the suf1erings of civilians.
The dispatch declared that very

civilian populations badly beaten

Archbishop Spellman, the dispatch
said, probably will leave Rome this

Mr.. Morrison criticized the policies

with Admiral Robert. which it said
would make American occupation of
the strategic island unnecessary.
Mr.. Morrison reported that Ad-

should have been turned over to the
United States long ago." as we'll as
an airplane carrier, two cruisers and
six oil tankers which we need des-

picion that part of that gold is being
sent to Vichy."
The irony of the whole thing is
that we are protecting Admiral
Robert from revolution and keep

this food monthly which the Ameri-

adding that food shipments to Mar

He also reported that an envoy

ing that thereby alone customer
rates could be heavily reduced.
Mr.. Booth told the commission it
should handle the case in this fash
ion: First, to order a rate reduction
by operation of the sliding scale plan
but to reduce charges to operating
expenses by limiting tax payment
credits and making other adjust
ments; and secondly, to announce
that it proposes to consider all fac
tors, including what constitutes a
fair rate of return under present
conditions, reconsideration OF depre-
ciation charges and to eliminate
from the rate base all value in excess
OF the company's original cost data
The Board of Trade yesterday
championed the sliding scale plan
as the Public Buildings Administra-
tion-custodian of 300 buildings in

manding rate cuts.
Attorneys for the PBA declared
the Government pays more than
81 ,000, 900 year for the 300 prop
critics in the District it supervises,
and 1t insisted rates charged for
electric energy "are on an improper
basis, are unnecessarily high and do
not reflect proper consideration of
existing economic conditions"
The PBA added: Rates should
be established so as to return to the
Potomac Electric Power Co. annu-
ally an amount sufhcient to cover
the necessary costs of operation and
maintenance: q proper allowance
for depreciation; normal and ordi-
nary taxes; interest on fixed obliga-
tions; dividends on preferred stock.
and fair profit to be calculated
on the basis Of profits usually earned
by businesses involving comparable
risk and uncertainty and to be dis
tributed as dividends on common
stock"
