A sufpassing ' THE _EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. W.R & E DFFERS |SEE FIVANCIAL GAIVHOUSE TOPUSH ON NERGER VIEW Cites Phases of flheation Which It. Says Were Missed in Opinion. Officials of the Washington, Railway and Electrioc Company belfeve that there are several phases af the street car merger’ question whichCorpora- tion Courisel Stephens did not take into;ednsideration when he drafted the opinion that the companies could con- solidate under existing law. It was learned today that the com- pany has written to the commission setting forth the paints which it be- lleves were not fully weighed by the corporation counsel when he inquired into the question of whether adadi- tional legislation by Congress is need- ed to r it the W. R. & E. and the U-Elu Traction companies to_unite ngineer Commissioner Keller, 3 the points raised by the W. R. have been referred to Mr. Ste- phe: ‘The colonel said he would make public the company's reply after the corporation counsel has had opportunity to go over the issues raised. Although legal minds appear to be divided on the question of whether the two companies couid merge now without an enabling act, persons in tod. & til Congres has acted on the bills now pending, describing how the union of the lines should be effected. The fact that the valuations placed on the propeérties of the street car and electric light companies are still being contested in the courts also is looked upon as an obstacle to immediate merger. It is known that one point which officials of the W. R. & E. are consid- ering is that Mr. Stephens made no mention in his opinion as to whether the Potomac Electric Power Company, which is owned by the W. R. & E.. should be included in a street car merger. The legislation pending in Congress provides.for the Inclusion of the power company in such a merger. i JUNE SALES A 25c cake of luxurious Jonteel Soap with each 50c box of the new Jonteel Cold Cream i ‘ N !

One insurance man pointed out to- day that Washington is better situ- | ated than most large cities in the| matter of fire insurance rates, be- cause of the wide streets and the fact that there is no congested area | of skyscrapers in which a conflagra- tion could spread rapidly. High-pressute fire mains, he sald, would furthor reduce the fire hazard | by providisg the fire department with sireams’ of water that would reach the tops of the high buildings that ance rates, however, is regarded by civic leadeérs as of secondary con-| sideration.
