GAS INQUIRY IN VIEW
Probable Action if GaIIinger
Bill Is Passed.
PLAN OF COMMISSIONERS
As q Public Utilities Board Would
Order an Mvestigation-Carbon
Monoxide Question.

One of the first acts Of the District
Commissioners in the event they OBJ
tain the powers of a public utilities
commission probably will be to investi-
gate the Washington and Georgetown
Gas Light companies.
Both Commissioner Rudolph and En-
gineer Commissioner Judson today said
that such an investigation, in their
opinion. could properly be undertaken
by utilities commission. They init
mated that If the bill which would be-
stow upon the District heads the pow
ers of commission is passed an in
vestigation will be ordered.
Sweeping Inquiry in Mind.
Upon high authority it Is learned that
the Commissioners. in their decision yes
terday not to urge the Smith bill, which
would limit the amount of carbon monox-
ide that may be contained i'll gas manu-
featured and sold in the District to 10 per
cent. had in mind sweeping inquiry into
the quality Of gas used in the District. in
the event of the passage of the utilities
bill which was introduced by Senator
Gallinger.
Basins their action on the belief that
the death of Miss Margaret Shaw han
from carbon monoxide gas was caused
by q defective gas heater of type
prohibited by law, rather than the quail
ity of the gas consumed in the stove,
the Commissioners decided to continue
to enforce the law for the present, and
not attempt to remedy conditions by
legislative means.
The statement given out yesterday by
Commissioner Rudolph that the Smith
bill, which was introduced three Years
ago at the request of the Commissioners
is not to be brought to the attent on OF
Congress just now. but that the matter
may be considered further Is taken as
tend to get at the matter, If they can, In
a different way.
IF Gallinger Bill Fails.
If the public utilities bill should not be
enacted into law, it is believed to be more
than likely that the Commissioners may
decide to urge the Smith bill or one
similar.
The Commissioners, it is understood,
take the position that they have no means
now of knowing the cost of the manufac-
ture of gas and whether this cost would
be increased by limiting the amount of
carbon monoxide to 10 per cent. If they
obtained the powers of a public utilities
commission Information along these and
kindred lines could be obtained by ex-
perts employed for that purpose. The
Commissioners would then have before
them facts upon which to base any action
that they might take
