Beginning tomorrow, May /,

all divisions of the Public Service
Gas Company throughout the State
This reduction in gas rates. which
Newark consumers and those of other
municipalities will receive. is in ac-
cordance with the recommendation
made by the Board of Public Utility
Commissioners last December. At
that time the board had investigated
numerous complaints from the Pas
sale division, and>a as a result ordered
the ninety-cent rate for that division.
With the order the commissioners
made the recommendation that the
ninety-cent rate, which went into ef-
feet in the Passaic division on Feb
ruary l, be made Statewide.
Thomas N. MeCarter, president of
the Public Service Corporation, in a
statement to the utility board. an
nounced that the company would fol-
low out the recommendation if given
until May /, so that the quarter gas
meters could be readjusted.
The president, however. stated that
the company reserved the right to
test the legality of the boards find
ings. The matter has been argued i'm
the Supreme Court, but as yet no de-
cision has been reached.
The ninety-cen rate will affect 1il

Service throughout the State 1t is
estimated 100000 consumers will re-
ceive the benefit of the reduction.
The territory thus affected is esti-
mated to contain a population of l.,

There are an additional twelve
municipalities In the Passaic division
which have been reaping the benefits
of the new rate since February l.
The new rate begins with the sales
of gas tomorrow. and will not be evil
dent to the consumers until the
monthly bills are submitted about
June /.
1t is estimated that approximately
25,000 prepayment meters in the Essex
division have been changed to meet
the new gas rate. This division in
cludes all municipalities in Essex
county, with the exception of Nutley.
and also includes West Hudson
towns. Summit, Chatham and Nor
ristown. The meters have been re-
adjusted so as to supply more gas
for each quarter deposited
The new rate will be a fiat rate
ninety cents per thousand cubic feet
with no reduction for prompt pay
ment Heretofore when the rate was
$1.10 per thousand cubic feet the COM
pany allowed a reduction of ten cents
for every thousand cubic feet of gas
used if the bills were paid within
five days.

PRESIDENT MAY
COMPROMISE ON
Jury BILL PLAN
Though Wilson Is Willing TO
Fight Advisers Urge Him
TO Give In.

W &Apfh
To secure the passage of jury
reform bill President Wilson may be
forced to abandon his proposal, of
county jury commissions appointed
by the courts, and accept compro-
mise plan. The President and Secre-
tary Tumulty have been told by
friends and close political advisers in
New Jersey within the last few days
that If he persists in his demand for
judicial commissions and the passage
of such a bill without a referendum
there will be no jury legislation in
the special session of the Legislature
While the President has suggested
that he is willing to fight the issue
to finish and get beaten, If neees.
sary it has been very strongly urge |
upon him that for many reasons he
cannot afford to have his New Jersey
program defeated at this time. The
announcement that he could not con-
troll the legislative situation in his
own State on "a party platform pledge,
he has been told, will be heralded all
over the country as an evidence of
lack of strength in his leadership,
and will be certain to give courage
to the members of his own party in
sthe United. States Senate who are
now half-heartedly opposing his
tariff program and waiting and
watching for some reasonable excuse
to openly antagonize the administra-
tion. Such an excuse. 1t has been
pointed out at the White House.
would be furnished ready to the
hands of these senators if he is
beaten in the New Jersey jury fight.
One of the serious obstacles to the
passage of bill for jury commissions
appointed by the courts, with or with
out referendum. is the dilemma in
which the Presidents program has
placed Mayor Wittpenn, Governor
Fielder and the members of the Hud-
son county assembly delegation.
1t turns out that the county plat
form on which the Hudson men ran
for election last fall indorsed the
State pronouncement on jury reform.
but specifically declared against the
creation of jury commissions to be
named by the courts.
While Governor Fielder was not
elected to the Senate last fall, and
hence does not feel himself bound by
this declaration of the county plat
form, Mayor Wittpenn and his
friends in the Assembly delegation,
who are anxious to be in accord with
the Presidents wishes, are seriously
embarrassed by the situation.
Several of the Hudson members who
are generally looked upon as follow
ers of Wittpenn are said to have flat
ly told the mayor that under no
circumstances will they vote for a
bill for court-appointed jury commits
sioners.
1t is partly because of this situa-
ton that the conferences the Presi-
dent is to hold with members of the
Legislature and party leaders in Jer-

LABORERS MAY co
ON STRIKE TONIGHT
Vote to Be Taken in This
City, Paterson and
Suburbs.

With the time limit for an answer
to their demands for more pay and
an eight-hour day expiring tomorrow,
general strike is threatened by the
laborers affiliated with the General
Laborers' International Union of
America Each of the locals in this
city, Paterson and the suburbs of
both cities will hold meetings at their
respective headquarters tonight to
take a formal vote as to whether or
not they will go on strike.
1t is estimated that if the strike is
declared $1,000 laborers will quit work.
The labor leaders declare that while
some of the workers may quit to-
morrow. it is likely that the majority
will wait until next Monday before
laying down their tools.
Notice was served on all the large
contractors and Public Service Rail-
way Company last October by The
union that the increase in wages and
shorter hours would be demanded
after May T. AS the union has not
received any reply to its demands the
leaders declare there is nothing left
to do but declare a general strike.
The leaders declare that the union
has been so well organized in its va
rious divisions that none of the vio-
lence and frequent riots which
marked the laborers' strike here last
year will be repeated. 1t is also con-
tended by the leaders that the strike
will tie up all work at which labor
ers are engaged in Newark, Paterson
the Oranges and all adjacent towns.
1t is planned to stop all the street
work being done by the Public Serv-
ice companies. the city department
and all excavations for buildings and
concrete work
