HARTMAN QUIZZED ON UTILITY VALUES | Consumers’ Guild Submits Query While Congratulating Him Upon | Appointment to Commission. The Washington Consumers’ Guild, through its director, E. C. Reigel, yes- | terday congratulated Harleigh H. Hart- | man on his appointment to the Public | Utilities Commission, and confronted him with a questionnaire designed to disclose his views on the yital question | of public utility valuation. “I wish to congratulate you upon being nominated by the President to| the office of Public Utilities Commis- | sion.” Reigel wrote Mr. Hartman. “I| know of no reason why you should not | fill the position to the full satisfaction of the community. “For the purpose of public knowledge | and as a. matter of record for the| Senate in passing upon confirmation, I take the liberty of asking your position on the most vital question by which your sympathies may be judged: to wit. “Do you accept the formula of valua- tion advocated by the utilities—namely, evaluation of appreciation, deprecia- tion, reproduction, going concern, good- will, etc., or do you favor the cash prudently invested principle, which seems to the consumer ths right basis for equitable determination of rates and which has been advocated by such dis- tinguished public servants as Justice Brandeis and Senator Blaine? . ‘“Your response at the earliest pos- sible time will be appreciated and wili be forwarded to the Senate and given to the press.” BEACON INN 1801 Calvert St. N.W.
