Editor Of The Washington Times:
see in tOday's editorial that no one
considers the gas company honest with
its users. /, for one. can say that It
is the best corporation in the city OF
Washington today. the rates are as
low or lower than Baltimore gas, Is
as good az they are. and have been
always square at the meter bill, and
very satisfactory. Just compare gas
with the price we pay for electricity
and see which is the cheaper by 100
per cent. I am not a stockholder in
the Washington Gaslight Company
Very truly yours.
