clared his feeling that the Mayor had put himself in position where | it seemed to me" he is prejudic- ed when Parsons made his state ment to the Council two weeks ago.
 The Mayor then declared the company's motion to be just anoth- CT attempt to delay the proceeding that he feels he can conduct the hearing impartially and in any case has no vote except in tie.
 Councilman R. H. Williams, sec- onded by Councilman Stan Grum- melt, then moved that the Mayor as the executive head of the City goyernment-cond the meeting in the usual manner.
 Voting ives" were: Williams, Young, Grummett and Skuse. No" Lea and Nielsen.
 Studrt'S Valuations
 With the Mayor once again formally ensconced in the chair, the hearing resumed with the call ing of Engineer Stuart to submit valuations he had put upon AEL&P land holdings.
 Delving into past history, back to the founding of the company, Stuart gave his reasons for cutting the company's own reported land valuation of $32,82833 down to a total of $9,64981. Stuart's figure included three major itms valued at: Office and Sales Building site, $4,468; power house site, $1,81943; Second Street sub station site, $1 TIT.
 In setting his value on the Office and Sales Building Site, Stuart al- lowed only 65 percent of the pur- chase cost of $6,874, because, he said, the building is subject to use for merchandising, Douglas and rural service and only holdings con- tributing directly to the supplying of electric power within the limits of Juneau are subject at the pres ent hearings.
 Stuart called pure water" the difference between a paid out $125 and the light company's own valua- tion of $14,750 for the Power House site. In support of that conten- tion, he gave his opinion, supported, he said, by Court rulings, that re- placement costs or present values have no bearing in a rate hear ing; that the rate base is original cost less depreciation.
 Faulkner suggested that the hear ing might get along faster if Stuart confined himself to the facts, that there are all sorts of Court opinions as to- rate base and that he and Stabler were there to look up legal opinions.
 Stuart is to offer another phase of his company valuations when hearings are resumed Thursday

"Affiant further states that Tt the very outset of the mayors war against the company, before opening any negotiations for the purchase of the company's property and business and before making any incuiry about values or price, be stated publicly that he, as may or was going to force the company to sell by condemnation proceed ;ngs."
 H.. "AfIiant atates that the com pany has net at any time replied publicly to the mayors attacks and .harges, in the press, over the radio or otherwise, and it has not at tempted to answer his misleading and untrue statements and half truths, for the reason that as early as last May .ne officials of the were advised by their counsel not to do so, for the req Ion that in his opinion, the pur- pose of the mayor was apparently not to open negotiations in good faith for the purchase of the com- pany's business. but to injure it md destroy it's business if possible; and the company was advised by it's counsel at that time that in all likelihood the matter would even- tually culminate in the company's ] eing ordered before the city coun- til sitting as 6 rate making body in the performance of judicial function with the mayor in the

SAN FRANCISCO GA Pac. p360) the identical issue was before the Supreme Court of California under a statute similar to the Alaska law
 That case involved the fixing oi water rates by the Board of Super visors for San Francisco. That board is equivalent to our city council. After hearing the Bosrc of Supervisors fixed the water rates and passed an ordinance
 "A lower court held that the ordinance fixing water rates was invalid without the mayors sig nature. The Supreme Court of California, in a unanimous decis- ion. reversed the lower court, and held the mayor was not a member of the Board of Supervisors and that he had no power to veto an or dinance fixing water rates, and that his signature thereto was not necessary"
 Full Council Present
 The full membership of the Coun- cil was on hand for last evenings opening of the rate sessions, while there in answer to subpoenas were AEL&P Manager w. s. Pullen and Cashier c. B. Holland with Attorney Faulkner.
 Proceedings were opened with the introduction by City Attorney How ard D. Stabler of four exhibits evil dencing that the hearing had been called in accordance with the pro- visions of law; a point conceded by Faulkner. Introduced were:
 l-The Councils duly passed mo- tion of February l, calling the hear ing.
 2-The actual notice of the hear ing with return of it's service by Chief of Police Leonard Williamson upon AEL&P Manager Pullen and certificate that it had been posted as required.
 3-Publisher's affidavit attesting to publication of the notice of hear ing
 A subpoena served upon Pullen and Holland requiring their ap- pearance at the hearing and sub mission of specific records of the company.
 To Summon Expert
 Immediately following the formal opening, light company Attorney Faulkner moved that the hearing be continued for two weeks to per- init the company to have present a qualified rate expert, Henry l. Gray Seattle Electrical Engineering Consultant who has made two ap- praisals of the light company prop critics here. Though the Council voted to proceed immediately with the hearing, it was later informally agreed that the company would be assured opportunity to have MT. Gray appear before the proceedings would be closed.

role of complaining witness; and thence to the courts, and they were advised that 1t would be highly improper and lnethical to seek to influence the trial of the issues, through the public press and over the radio, in advance"
 12. ". that in the hearing which has been ordered before the city council for the declared pur- pose of regulating the rates of the Alaska Electric Light & Power Company the mayor has declared that the council will lower the lates, thereby demonstrating that he has made up his mind in ad- vance and could not qualify as an impartial judge end decide the is sue solely on the facts and evil dence which will be presented
 13. "Affiant also states that he mas been advised by the company's counsel that Mayor Parsons will be called by the company and sworn .as witness and examined in this hearing, and no man, under the provisions of the Constitution of the United States, can ever quail iv as both witness and judge.
 WHEREFORE, affiant prays, on behalf of the respondent, Alaska Electric Light & Power Company that the Mayor of Juneau, MT. Ernest Parsons, be excluded by the council from participating in these proceedings except as a wit ness, under oath and subject to cross examination.

tion to carry on with the hearings now was Councilman Harry Lea who stated his opinion that an! business should be given a chance to call in an expert on it's behalf City Attorney Stabler replied that the company had already been given statutory notice
 A full transcript of the rate pro- ceedings is to be made, with the City and company splitting the stenotypist's bill It was indicated that the rate regulating sessions would extend over some weeks. En- gineer Stuart stated that he figures his submissions for the City will require four sittings.
 Meet Thursday Night
 Intervals are to be allowed be- tween hearings in order to allow time for transcribing and last nights two-hour session was ad- journed until o'clock Thursday evening, February 2a; the evening before the next regular Council meeting.
 In reply to query by Stabler, At torney Faulkner stated that com pany ledgers subpoenaed were at hand and would be available for inspection between hearings at the light company office. One old ledger and one old journal asked for were reported missing, probab- ly destroyed, while the mass of cancelled checks demanded are now in transit from the States.
 Next in order. came the com- pany's motion to disqualify the Mayor from presiding. Faulkner's lengthy statement in support of the motion was interrupted at one point by a question from the Mayor: What point are you trying to make?"
 Faulkner gave the apparent ans wer: That it is contended that Mayor Parsons is not qualified to vote in the rate action and that any portion of the action in which he takes part will be null"
 Contentious
 At the conclusion of Faulkner's statement, City Attorney Stabler queried his legal colleague: Do you contend that this meeting is not regularly called? The answer to that was no. Do you contend that this Council does not have power to fix rates? Again no, the Coun- cil, not the Mayor, has that power Do you contend the Mayor does not have the right to preside? Yes. Do you contend this Council is not acting according to law? Answer This Council is not acting at all. I haven't heard peep from the Council yet"
 Faulkner elaborated: There is no question but that Parsons is pre- judiced against the company Aside from that. T shouldn't think he'd want to sit
