OVER THE YORK VALUATION
Mnn Who l DrmvliiK Set rnly-FIt e
Dollars liny for Dolun Work
JScvrr Oiut Apprnrs In
A'elirnskn,
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April ..-fSpeclal.)-The York
telephone hearing had Us peponri inning
before the ?tato Rallnay commission to
day. Some time ago the Lincoln Tele
phone company Trnido application to the
commission for a raise In rates at the
York plant and a hearing was had, In
which parties Interested In creating a
sentiment against the responsibility of
the commission's engineers demanded that
an independent engineer be sent to York
to make an Independent valuation of the
plant.
Iu order to vatlsry the demands of these
parties the commission granted tlfo ' re
quest, with the provision that the York
people should select a good man, nnd the
commission In order to satisfy all criti
cism would pay the hills of the engineer
selected.
Attorney Btamlcts of New York wns an
pealed to to give thn York people tho
nume of a good man, and he proposed n
well known engineer, Bemls of Chicago.
Mr. Urmia agreed to mnko the valuation
and was to receive 75 a day and nil as
sistant who should iccelva ?23 a day in
addition. In due course of time tho com
mission received word that Mr. Stone
woujd make the valuation, and since that
time Mr. Stone has been wotklng upon
the plant.
When he made his report to Mr. Bemis
tho lattor sent tho report on to the com
mission and . In checking It up tiio en
gineers of the commission discovered sev
eral mistakes. It was sent back to Mr.
Bemls for correction. It was again re
ferred to the commission and the report
shows that Mr. ,Stone has placed tho re-!
production value: of the York pHnt at
IlK.SWl and the present value at !i,231.
The engineers of tho commission found
the reproduction value at IKH.llS and the
present value to be $110,539.50.
Although It was supposed that Mr.
Bemls would at least come to Nebraska
once, ho has failed to do so, and did not
show up today at the hearing.
However, Mr. Stono was present and
was on the stand most of the forenoon
In an effort to convince tho commission
that the valuation made by film was the
real figures. Mr. Stone endeavored tp
Justify tho figures ho hail made In the
valuation In order to show why h hod
not taken Into consideration certain ex
penditures which entered Into -the con
struction of tho plant. His testimony de
veloped there were many things about
tho valuation of telephone plants that
had been used by tho commission's en
gineers which had, not been shown by
htm at all.
At one time he showed what an Ideal
plant such as would be needed at York
would cost and tho best service to be
received for the ' least money. In his
Opinion such a plant would cost Vi.W)
anC the cost of maintenance should bo
1 per cent.
In other words, a plant costing $75,000,
should bo maintained at a cost of $730.
Twice or three times In his testimony
Mr. Stone gavo his opinion that 1 per
cent ought to pay the maintenance co.it
of a telephone plant.
At another tlmo ho exploited reprodue
tlon value of a plant as the basis for
rate making instead of the present value
which Is used by the commission. In
such a ease It would result In a higher
ratr than the commission has allowed.
This has all cost the commission in
the neighborhood of J3.C00, and tho far
thcr the Investigation goes tho more evi
dent It becomes. In tho minds of the coin
tnltelonerg that the commission's engi-

neers were right In their valuation placed
uiton the plant.
Although Mr. Stone lmd put In two
months In making n .physical valuation
of tho plant, when asked by President
Woods, of the telephone copany, If there
wtrc any dead lines connected with the
Yerk plant, he "replied Mhat he did not
know, but there might v be out In the
country.

HUDSON Six-jo
$1760 , o. IDetroit
The HUDSON Leads
AH Other "Sixes"
Tho strongest advocates of the Fours admit that the Sixes
lead. And the HUDSON stands head and shoulders above
all other Sizes. 1
Tho highest recommendation a salesman 'for other Sixes
know is: "It's as good as the HUDSON."
The HUDSON Six Is the standard by which other makers
measure their motors, their body designs, their prices.
The HUDSON First Choice
If price, and old car allowance, and other conditions wero
equal every buyer would choose a HUDSON Six.,
The HUDSON is always the first choice. If wo would sell
a HUDSON nt n "cut price"; or if we offered a big "trading
value"" for an old car; or if wo "threw In" a lot of extra
equipment, every man who enters our showrooms would
tako the HUDSON.
Competition 1b not on the quality of the other car. It la
on these things wo refuse to meet.
You Buy Guy L. Smith Service With
Ill
HUDSON Car
When you buy a HUDSON Six you buy with It the "best
service in Omnha."-
Some dealers cut prices, give long trading allowances,
sacrifice prosent profits 'for future repair Jobs. You can ex
pect no care of your car from such a dealer.
The honest, legitimate denier who is in business for a fair
profit and a permanent business follows every car with infi
nite care' and service.
In Omahu tho HUDSON is tho 366-day-a-year car. If
you own a HUDSON you can use it every day in the year.
the HUDSON a New-Type Six
The HUDSON is a new-type Six. It Is dlfferont from the
old stylo Six of big cylinders, great power and costly upkeep.
Makers of four-cylinder cars make comparisons with the.
Sixes of several years ago. You do not find tbem comparing
their Fours with present-day Sixes.
Tho HUDSON Slx-40 for example has a small-bore,
long-stroko motor. It Is light in weight 29$0 pounds cer
tified railway weight. Its mileage per gallon of gasoline
exceeds equivalent fours. Its tire cost, because of lack of
vibration, Is Immensely less.
It Is infinitely more enjoyable to ride In. To drive It Is a
revelation to one accustomed only to a Four.
Come, see theso modern motor-cars. Drive a HUDSON
Six and learn why the HUDSON leads. We will give you
n entirely new meaning of motor-car satisfaction.
