CONGRESS SHOULD LEARN
THE COST OF DISTRICT GAS
BEFORE IT FIXES THE PRICE
Opinion of Brookland Citizens Association President
Who Wants Cheaper Gas, But Not Unless 1t
Can Be Made and Delivered.

TO the details Of the gas cOmpany's bust
ness. Then the price can be regulated
with e~ual justice To us and 10 the gas
company. from time 10 time, by law
as conditions may necessitate. II is
only conjecture. but / believe that gas
can be furnished 10 Us at 70 cents. and
probably less.
II IT costs more than IS cents. the
company would long ago have proved
that IL cost more by presenting a de
tailed statement of what it has actually
cost them. Having been given every op-
portunity 20 show that they cannot de
liver it for that price and having failed
to show that they cannot. the strong
presumption is that they can, and the
Madden bin should therefore become a
law.
But why should We continually grOpe
In the dark? Why should not the light
Of publicity be thrown on the gas bust
ness? And If It costs a dollar to de-
liver gas TO us. we viii cheerfully pay
II, but If II can be delivered 10 US for
80 or 70, or 90 cents or any other price
less than a dollar, we want it at that
price.
Ridiculous Position"
We cannot place ourselves in the ri
dicUlOUs position Of demanding % cent
gas whether OF no, or the equally
ridiculous position assumed by the OBJ
jectOrs 10 the Madden blI. by stOutly
maintaining that the present price is
satisfactory, when there is not a man
in the District OF Columbia. outside Of
the gas company, who knows a solitary
thing Of what gas costs in Washington
We want gas as cheap as IL can be
furnished AT a reasonable profit. The
gas company is a quasl-public institu-
ton. and the day is passing when such
Institutions can work their sweet wills
on the pullic We. therefore. want
absolute publicity Of all the details Of
the gas business We want Congress,
which alone can do so. 10 find means
whereby the cost of gas may at all
times be strictly ascertained and a
reasonable price fixed for it.

To the Editor OF The Washington Times.
In your account Of the hearing before
the District House Committee on the 70
cent gas bill. you stated that I appeared
in opposition TO the bill. and while your
report OF what 1 sad is substantially
correct as far as 1t goes, it necessarily
omitted a great deal and left the impress
sion that the people in my section are
opposed to the bill. This is not the case.
We are unanimously in favor Of 70 cent
gas, provided Il can be delivered at that
price and leave the company a fair
profit on their investment This bin Is
only a make-shift and does not go 10 the
root OF the matter at ALL and while the
question is being agitated II might as
well be settled right and settled for
good, otherwise it will be up again.

opinions that are now being exploited,
there is not one single person in Wash

Congress is the only body that can
compel the gas company TO disclose
the cost. Gas is a close monopoly. Its
price is liked by Congress Il Is not
regulated by competition. like Mr.. Oar
neile's eggs. As Congress must fix the
price for US. the only way It can do
so intelligcntIy is 10 have full access

posed by. Representative Morren By

HOLDING THE MIRROR
UP TO NATURES FACE
NOT ART IN ACTING
Producing An Illusion Superior to Realism the True
Measure of Thespian Still Upon the Stage
BY CoQUELIN AINE.

The question whether realism belongs
on the stage has often been discussed.
To me there is nothing grand or beau
tiful which does not bear the stamp of
nature, but acting is an art. and the
idea OF art is 10 reproduce nature in
nobler and more beautiful form.
II nature is represented on the stage
in its raw and original form the effect
Will nearly always be poor, a fact which
is easily explained and understood.
One may do everything possible to
produce scenery which is strikingly
close to nature, spend fortunes on cor
rect properties and costumes. and one
will after all only have-a stage on
which 70 act.
There is no gainsaying. one is in a
theater. not on the street, or at home.
II one should produce on the stage
things as they happen on the street or
in ones home without the slightest
change. the result would be the same
as if you took a llfe-size figure and
placed 1t on the top Of a high column
the impression of life size would be
gone.
The stage is ever a stage. and one
must remember this fact
Let US take one instance-the voice.
Were I to use my voice on the stage
just as 1 do in my room. would neither
be heard nor understood.
1t is one thing to converse in a room
only a few feet long and wide. and
quite another to do the same thing in
an immense theater, where thousands
of people are listening TO you, every
one of whom has the right TO demand
that you speak loud enough for him to
hear.
To produce the same effect with my
voice as I do inside the four walls Of
ny room. I must use much more
strength and pronounce the words
much more distinctly If 1 want 10 be
understood / must use intonations that
are not necessary at home, but which
are absolutely necessary in order that
the audience may understand.
on this point there must be an under
standing or agreement between audi
ence and actor.
The World Of Illusion.
When the miliu-the stage-a small
world in itself-is set and illuminated.
when the great apparatus of wings.
scenery, and actors is ready, the world
which appears TO the audience must be
wrapped in the veil of Illusion
I shall not take up details Of this I'M
Outstanding between audience and
stage because this is a technical ques-
ton which demands 20 be specially
studied

theater must play it's part to produce
the necessary illusion on the audienc

General George M. Sternberg, who
was at the head Of the hospital and
medical service OF the United States
army for many years, was born in OF
sego county. New York, June s, 1888.
In his army career he began al the
bottom Of the ladder, as assistant sur
geon, in 1851. In 1866 he was pro-
NOTED to be captain, and in 1898 he
reached the position of surgeon gem
eral with the rank Of brigadier gem
eral. During the Civil war General
Sternberg was attached to the COM
mand Of General Sykes, served in GEN
eral Banks expedition, and was in
charge Of the general hospital at

and 1889 he was engaged in investiga-
tions in Cuba, Mexico and Brazil re-
lating to the etiology and prevention
