DETERMINING THE VALUE
OF A FRANCHISE
Judgo Hough rocontly In tho
Unltod Statos District Court decided
that tho 80-cont gas law Is uucoumM
tutlonnl. 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could bo repealed, for that would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. New York
