welt drubbed Episcopal, 1873.
Techs victory was its sixth in
seven games this season. Milo Quail,
on the Tech mound, allowed only
six hits and never was in trouble

Maroons got one run in the second,
tied up the game with another in
the third and went on to win with a
single run in the fifth, scored on
Jack Walsh's single after two men

Fourth Agency Asks
Court 10 Cut PEPC0
Rates 100000
FWA Unit Seeks to Set
Aside PUG Allowance
Of Only $4,000

Another Federal Government
agency has instituted court action
in an effort to compel the Potomac
Electric Power Co. to reduce its
electric rates by more than $4,000 900
annually instead of by the $4,000,
as ordered April 26 by the Public
Utilities Commission.
A petition for appeal from the
PUG order was filed yesterday by the
Commissioner of Public Buildings,
Federal Works Agency, and was
similar to the two appeals filed in
District Court July ., one by the
once of Price Administration and
the Director of Economic Stabiliza-
ton and the other by the Procure
ment Division Of the Treasury De-
partment.
Intervened Earlier.
The Government, through the
several agencies, had intervened
earlier before the PUG during its
rate hearings and unsuccessfully
sought a rate reduction of not less
than $4,000 900 annually. The COM
mission rejected the contentious of
the Government agencies and ord
cred a rate reduction in the amount
of only $4,000.
Yesterdays petition included
among its claims that the commits
sion Illegally made an allowance for
depreciation expense in excess of
s571 ,434."
Hits at Tax Allowance.
Also that the commission ar
bitrarily and illegally failed to
deduct accrued depreciation from
the rate base" That it arbitrarily
and Illegally computed depreciation
expense upon nondepreciable prop
erty" That it arbitrarily and
illegally allowed as operating ex-
penSe the amount of $1695,712 for
Federal income tax. Also that it
arbitrarily and illegally allowed
$3,774,l09 as a proper amount of
working capital.
The petition asked the court to
reverse, annul and set aside said
order and determination of said
commission insofar as it permits the
company to callect rates in excess of
just and reasonable rates required by
the program of the Government to
keep down the cost of living, the
District Public Utilities Act. the slid
ing scale arrangement and legal
principles applicable thereto"
