Capital Transit VS.. Pepco

Pepco's battle for higher rates for the elec-
tricity it sells to all sorts of consumers is sure
to be enlivened by the side show staged and pro-
duced by Capital Transit. The curtain went up
yesterday. Capital Transit's lawyer took the
center of the stage and declaimed in these
moving words
say to the Commission that Capital Transit
is throwing all its resources and all its know-how
into protecting its patrons against the demands Of
Pepco If it is at all possible. we will fight every
step of the way to prevent further burden on
the transit rider as the result of Pepcos demands
Capital Transits anxiety is understandable.
Only recently it used all its resources and all its
know-how in persuading the Public Utilities
Commission to permit a substantial boost in
transit fares. Now if Pepcos plea is granted for
higher rates for the electricity it sells the street
car company, Capital Transit presumably will
have to use all its resources and all its knowhow
all over again to persuade the Utilities Comnis-
sion to boost the fares once more So its heart Is
bleeding-for the patrons of Capital Transit.
This is an interesting new development in
the hitherto smooth running relationships be-
tween WaShington's utilities and contains an
idea which might be used with some advantage
to the publc-and to the lawyers who specialize
in utility matters. Up to this time, when the
Transit Company or Pepco or the telephone or
gas company asked for higher rates. the other
utilities were discreetly silent. They sat back
and watched. But from now on, when one of
the utilities asks for increase let all the other
utilities respond as one and take up the cudgels.
Let them rush to the Utilities Commission and
oppose the demands against their customers,
using all their resources and all their know-how
to protect their patrons.
This would be excellent practice for the
lawyers. Their role has been one of asking for
something. Now let them try the other angle,
and see how good they are at being against
= something. Carried to its ultimate conclusion,
If this practice is adopted, we might be able to
abolish the Public Utilities Commission altogether
and rely on the utilities and their able lawyers to
protect the public against each other.

On February 26h while Judge still waiting for his and
without notice him. the antitrust lawyers story
to the in Washington announcing that they dropping
the case in Dallas.
They said that their intention O file substantially similar suit

The "early date" turned out to be the day.
AS antitrust lawyer killed the in Dallas another anti
trust lawyer filed in Danve illinois, This made
most the allegations that had been made and dropped Da

So according the antitrust lawyers all four judges who had

to Danvile, Illinois,
They still determined destroy this company which brought
better millions of American families
Milford chronicle., 1950-02-24

There the time in Wilson, North Carolina, they
said and other good American citizens cOnspired
to fix prices paid farmers for their potatoes.
This the time Federal Judge c. c. Wyche directed
the jury to bring in a verdict of mot guilty.
It the time Judge Wyche said to the antitrust
lawyers:
I'm my opinion there is no testimony produced from
IUIich it can reasonably be inferred that the de-
PENDANTS entered into combination to dePTess or
LOUOer the price of potatoes.
~ might say that neUer tried a case in mn life

Milford chronicle., 1950-02-24

There was the time in Washington, D. c., when they
said we and other good American citizens cOnspred
to fix the price of bread in that city.
This was the time Federal Judge T. Alan Goldsborough
ruled that APP and the other defendants did not even
need to put defense He instructed the jury to bring
in a verdict of 'nOt guilty..
1t was the time Judge GOldsbOrOugh said to the anti
trust lawyers:
If you Cere to ShOIO this record to anu exUerienced

There was the time in Dallas, Texas when they made
practically the same allegations" they are making
today.
This was the time Federal Judge w. H. Atwel ruled
that the should not be tried He said that the
indictment contained inammatory statements that he
would not permit to be presented to jury.
It the time Judge AtweIl said to the antitrust
lawyers:

TREE DISEASE-An exception
ally destructive tree disease, con-
sisting of a parasitic fungus which
has been ravaging forests in mid
western states, offers no great
threat to Delaware's forests, Dr..
L. A. Steafns, head of the sUniver-
sity Of Delaware's Entomology De.
partment, declared on Monday.
According to DR.. Stearns. the dis
ease is known as "Oak wilt and at
tacks only oak trees. Since the for
ests. of Delaware are chiefly pine
and other resinOus woods, DR..
Stearns explained, it is hardly like
ly that the disease could gain a
fOothold in this state.
A recent report from Indiana
stated that the fungus had caused
great damage to- oak forests in that
area, and that the disease was be-
ing carried by spores rapidly east
ward.
The entOmOlOgist, however; quot
ed an opinion he heard expressed
at last years National Shade Tree

feet that the oak wilt could wipe
