Tho broad ground for this doclslon Is that tho reduction In prlco Is "conflRontory" nnd In viola tion of tho Constitution of the Uni ted Stntos. According to tho tostlmony of tho oniclnls nnd roport of tho Cousoll- klatod Gas Company, tho profit at 80 cents it thousand foot would not be enough to pay lutorest and divi dends on tho company capitalization. This Involves inont Important questions whloh should bo promptly oarrted to tho Supronio Court of tho United State and clearly sottlod there It a franchise proporty or Is It a lloonse or pormlt? If a franchlso Is not proporty tho fourteenth umondment does' not apply. If It Is Uko a liquor lloouso or n push cart liconso or a sidewalk permit, thon it Ib rovoonhle or nmendnblo. No theatre or iniolllgenoe olllco or saloon can Invokp tho fourteenth amendment to provout Its regula tion. If a franchise is property, what Is tho valuo an Impairment of which Is confiscation? A franchlso for $1 gas would bo loss valuablo than a franchlso for $1.25 gas. If the valuo of a franchlso In what It can bo cap italized for, then nny rod notion In prlqo would bo "confiscatory" unless It could bo proved that thoro was more profit at the lowor prlco. If this should be tho logical re sult of Judge Hough's doclslon, thon the capitalization of a frnnohiso Is saorod, moro saorod in afloat thanJ tho 0Apitaliztlou of tanglblo prop erty; for while gas tanks, retorts, i.lpes and malarial proporty wear out and diminish in valuo, a fran chise, being Intangible, cannot de teriorate, and whatever Its earning power the capitalization based there on cannot bo Impaired. I This view of the fourteenth 'amendment makes the railroad-rate jlaw unconstitutional. The froo stroot oar transfer law could ho set nsldo on the samo ground No franchlso could bo repealed, for that would doelroy "proporty." No franchlso onco capitalized could bo amended If iroflta woro thereby reduced. Whether Now York city has 80 cent or 90-cent or $1 gas is of little conaoquenco compared with the grviat question of whother a fran chlso Is auperlwr to legislative re striction or regulation.
