Believing the Supreme Court of the United States will declde soon whether it has jurisdiction over the Potomac Electric Power Company’'s valuation suit, the Public Utilities Commission is delaying for the time belng its verdict on the rates to be charged by that company after April 1. One of the Commissioners indi- cated today that the commission may wait until after next Monday to an- nounce its rate decision, presumably becauss the action of the highest court in the land on the valuation suit may affect the nature of the rate order. Conslders Jurisdiction Only. The Supreme Court {s not consid- ering at this time the merits of the valuation case, but only the question of whether it has jurisdiction over the matter at all.

This fund represents the difference between the 10-cent electric light rate which the company has con- tinued to collect since the court pro- ceedings began and the 8-cent -rate which the company was allowed to keep under the ruling of the com- mission. If the commission's valuation should finally be upheld, the im- the consumers of electric light.
