legislation for the state of New York. Permission was given, upon request of Instill counsel, for their appraisal experts to consult with those of the commission in an effort to iron out differences in unit costs disclosed in the testimony. Ruling on motion to dismiss, briefs ana arguments on the motion, crossexamination of witnesses, argument and final ruling are matters still to be disposed of by the commissioners. Ellis stated that a date to reconvene will be announced later and it likely will be shortly after Jan. 1. The whole theory of “going concern” value was attacked on the witness stand Tuesday by Roy Husselman of Cleveland, commission consulting engineer. He asserted that when plants are built and put into operation their “going concern” value is included in the costs. Chairman John W. McCardle of the commission later stated he agreed with this conclusion, but pointed out that the Indiana law required that “going concern” value be taken into consideration in rate

making. This has been upheld by tile courts. “Going concern” is what passes in competitive industry for “good will,” the latter being untenable under that name where there is a monppoly. No depreciation was included in the financial setup submitted by the merging utilities, his lack was attacked by Harry Boggs, commission consulting accountant. He estimated that there should be an annual depreciation charge of $2,069.252 for the combined properties. A company failing to provide for depreciation is “skating on thin ice,” Boggs declared. Husselman attacked the company valuations on standby electric plants and placed them much lower than in the utilities evidence. Harvey Harmon, former commissioner in charge of the case and now an opposition attorney, returned | Tuesday afternoon after being ab- ! sent Monday and Tuesday morning. Oscar F. Smith, another opposiI tion attorney, whose standing in the I case was questioned by Insull coun--1 sel Tuesday morning, left after the

attack and failed to return during the afternoon session. Oscar L. Pond also remains as attorney in opposition. The three attorneys signed additional pleadings which were accepted by the commission. They support their motion to dismiss.
