to last nights session of a

speakers platform with a

things:

Democrat Of Wisconsin, talked
on the Image" Of government.
Mr.. Johnston said Americans
admire the products Of business
but have only the vaguest idea
Of the free enterprise structure
and picture it without a con-
science.
However, he said businessmen
are first Of all people-"just as
honest, Just as crooked as peo-
pie in any other walk Of life"
He said for most business
men, the free enterprise system
is a free for all" with many
losers, and he noted that the
average life Of a business is
five and a half years. But
that's better than it has BEEN"

TO Claim Higher Costs

properties. This charge was
found improper by the United
States Court Of Appeals in its
recent ruling overturning q
1860 fare increase granted the
company. The Court said there
had been no proof in that case
that the investors had not al
ready been compensated for the
risk of obsolescence on the
properties.
Two Ways Of Compensation
Mr.. Spear contended that the
Appeals Court has said that
there are only two ways the
company could have been COM
pensated for the risk: BY past
depreciation charges, or by
more than adequate earnings
its investment.
Mr.. Flanagan introduced a
revised exhibit showing that
d. c. Transit and its predeces-
sor company, Capital \ Transit
Co., had in only a few years
since 1884 earned as great a
percentage return as the Dis
trict Public Utilities Commits
sion had said would be fair
and reasonable. He also said a
P. U. c. depreciation study
showed the company's deprecia-
ton reserves were deficient by
about 100000.
The General Services Admin
istration concluded its testi-
mony against the fare increase
yesterday. Under cross-exami-
nation, the GSA witness said
that the transit company
should not be allowed higher
depreciation charges for new
buses until it shows evidence
of retiring some of its buses
over II years old.
About 1000 Government en-
ployes would switch from buses
to cars if the company raised
its fares. the GSA claimed in a
written statement. This would
magnify" the existing parking
problem around public build
ings, it said.

D. c. Transit System will
introduce new estimates next
week, raising the projected
costs of track removal and re-
paving work by as much as SIS
million as one justification of
a requested fare increase.
This was indicated yesterday
by Harvey M. Spear, company
counsel, as hearings on the fare
increase recessed until Monday
Chairman Frederick ]. Clarke
Of the Washington Metropoli-
tan Transit Commission said
that he hoped the hearings
could be concluded next Tues
day.
One Of the arguments used
by opponents to the fare In
crease has been that the COM
pany has enough in its track
removal and repaving reserve
to take care Of expenditures for
these purposes through mid
1865.
IS Million Balance Seen
District Highway Director
Harold L. Aitken has testified
that the maximum needed by
the company from January ]

last November 30, according to
commission exhibits, the COM
pany had a balance in the re-
serve Of about IS million which
the fare increase opponents
maintain is adequate to take

about $277 900 annually to fare
payers for the reserve.

200 YEARS OLD
BY JOHN SHERWOOD
Star staff Writer

The British ambassador
wearing a dark suit, was greeted
with a funeral hush yesterday
as he marched briskly into his
embassy.
His attentive audience in the
rotunda leaned forward in their
chairs, sensing that the moment
was imminent when Her Maj
esty's Ambassador, the Right
Honorable Sir David Ormsby
Gore, K.C.M.G., would hand
over "Harrison's Fourth Ma
rine Timekeeper" to the United
States Naval Observatory on
an exhibition loan for a year.
Two dozen American and
British sailors formed an hon.
or guard and stood at attention
around the silver and brass
timepiece, cleaning under a
glass cover. One British seaman
keeled over in a dead faint.
The object Of all this atten-
ton was a rare chronometer
made in 1883 by a self-taught
Yorkshire carpenter. The last
time 1t left England was 1879
years ago when the British
tested its accuracy on a voy-
age to Barbados.
Most Important Watch"
Sir David called the beautiful
piece of workmanship perhaps
the most important watch" in
American history because it
opened up a new era in naviga-
ton and settlement in the New
World.
John Harrison, the watch
maker, was spurred on to create
a chronometer because the TIA
Parliament had offered 10000
pounds to anyone who could
find a ships longitude at sea.
After so years of the kind of
delicate work that even most
English clockmakers would not
attempt, the carpenter Harri-
son became a rich man in 1773
when Parliament paid off.
Navigators no longer had to
guess where they were from day

to day, accepting calculations
of longitude that put them

Observatory Established
King Charles II, a lover Of
the sea, grew tired Of the dis
asters and the heavy toll of
sailors and settlers lost at sea.
He founded the Royal Naval
Observatory at Greenwich to
perfect navigation.
Harrison made 4 chronom-
eters, the last of which has
been kept permanently at
Greenwich under the personal
care of William Rosemen, head
of the Chronometer Watch
Shops there. He winds 1t daily
and overhauls 1t every two
years, using the original parts.
Mr.. Rosemen has placed the
priceless watch in the care
of the United States Naval
Observatory next door to the
British Embassy. 1--WE would
not sell 1t for a million pounds"
he said, pleased about the idea
that the instrument was rest
ing within sight Of his coun-
try's Embassy.
First Voyage Test
More than 200 years ago
Harrison's marine timekeeper
was first tested on a voyage to
Jamaica. Coming into Jamaica
the mariners saw they were less
than a mile off course--such
an extraordinary feat that Off
cials felt the accuracy must
have been an incredible fluke.
The second test IN 1894 was
made with the Harrison No. 4
aboard, and was even more
accurate. That was the last
voyage abroad for this chro-
nometer before it came here
for exhibit.
In presenting the timepiece
to Navy Secretary Fred Korth,
Sir David pointed out that ain
the past" this chronometer
has served to bring our two
peoples closer together. 1t now
must be for all of us a symbol
and reminder Of (this) close
and cordial relationship. :"
