HYATTSV|LLE MAYOR
OPPOSES GAS PLAN
Says Another Company Should
Not Be Brought in Until
Local Firm Has Chance.

HYATTSVILLE,. Md, March 3.--That
he proposition TO compel the Washing
on Gas Light Company T. extend its
main into this sertion is rot considered
= wise one by all tie residents Of this
section. is shown by the statement Of
Mayor Harry w. Shepherd. who is
asher Of the First National Bank of
IyattsvillC.
Mr.. Shepherd spoke As 4 private cltI-
zen. and not in his official capacity. He
said he did not think it proper to LrinE
IN another company until proper steps
had been taken by the public utilities TO
'om1el il possible. the local company
10 reduce their price. He said lie would
Ice opposed 20 any plan TO allow any
concern to open the streets OF this town
tor the laying OF wires or pipes unless
the concern was compelled to restore
them in their pre- eSent condition.
He said n great outlay of money hau
been expended in improving many OF
the streets, and it would he an lhJuS-
iice 10 the citizens if they were torn up
for the laying of gas MAINS ard not re-
stored.
He also said he did not see how the
Washington company could pe COM
pSlled to extend their m3ins into this
Stat unless permission was first oo-
tanned from the public utilities commits
y
that this body would allow them to
compete with the local concern. If II was
shown TO be a mere 'Cut-throat propo-
sition. and if it were possible for gas 10
Ee sold cheaper than the present rate,
he felt sure the local company would
reduce its price. and that il would
hardly be a paving proposition for the
Washington concern
Z. g. Bucklin. local manager Of the
Hyattsville Gas and Electric Company',
stated that his company had not con-
Sidered the probability OF having cc1n-
petition from the Washington concern,
and he could not say Just what action
his company would take until the rropo-
sItion took a more definite shape. the
local company is owned by Humphries
& Miller. of New FORK, and has no
cunnection with any other lighting
rompany.
Councilman Albert H.. Clark. OF the
Second ward. stated he was heartily in
favor of any proposition that would re-
duce the price OF ;ras in this community,
and would do ANYTHING in his power, as
member Of the council, TO see t',at l.
was brought about.
The East Hyattsvilie Improvement
Association will meet tomorrow night

breathing passages If you were to be confined to a room with dry air absolutely devoid of moisture, in half an hour or less you would find your nose, throat and lungs so uncomfort- able that you would plead for release The vocal cords would become dry that ordinary talking would be ab- soIutely impossible.
 If you have in mind the difference between climates ordinarily called dry or moist, you deal with different subject because the difference between dry and moist climate simply means the difference in moisture, the dry climate having certain percentage of moisture at all times, never being devoid of any water.
 Regarding the second question in your letter, the cramps in the leg and arm. it is difficult to diagose the con dition from the description. You simply said that you had cramps in the right leg and arm will ask you to make a more detailed description of the pain, when it comes on whether it is after excessive exerticn or in the night and whether or not you have ever been troubled with rheuma tism- The books of the Home Health Club deal in subjects such as you have inquired abzout and will fur nish you information on all matters of health.
