JEWS FASTING TODAY
FOR WAR SUFFERERS
Orthodox Hebrews Meet at Adas Is
rael Temple This Morning to
Pray for Peace.

A day of fasting will be observed
today by the Orthodox Jews through
out the country to arouse the Jewish
people to a sense of the suffering Of
their fellow beings across the water.
and to raise funds for the alienation
of their distress.
Special services will be held at the
Adas Israel Temple at 5 o'clock this
morning. when the congregation will
assemble to ask forgiveness of God
and pray for peace throughout the
world.
The period of fasting was author
lied by the conference of Orthodox
rabbis in New York at this time be-
cause it is an appropriate and timely
way to usher in the solemn days of the
New Year. The New Year begins at
o'clock Wednesday and extends to
shutdown the next day.
Services in the churches on Thurs
day will consist of a more elaborate
form of worship than is usual, and will
combine some vistiges of antique ritual
with expressions of human experiences
and feelings true and real for every
body and at all times.

ORDER IS SERVED ON
UTILITIES COMPANIE
W. R. & E. and Potomac Electric to
Show Cause Why Former Should
Not Pay for Power.


The Washington Railway and Electric
Company and the Potomac Power Com
pany yesterday were ordered by the Pub
lie Utilities Commission to show cause
why the former corporation should not
pay directly to the latter concern for
such electrical energy as it receives AMI
Why the power company should not be
compelled to reduce its rate to private
consumers by such an amount as will
offset the Increased amount received from
the railway company by reason Of its
payment for power used.
The commission announced that at the
expiration of ten days it would set a
date for a public hearing, at which Of
ficials of the companies would be given
an opportunity to set forth any objections
they may have to the proposals. The ac-
tion of the commission is the initial step
toward a material reduction within the
near, future of the electricity rate to prf-
vate consumers. A decrease of 10 per cent
in the rate is not unlikely.

MAYOR THOMPSON TOO BUSY
TO ACT ON STRIKE BODY
Mayor Thompson was made a
member of the aldermanic strike
committee last night. AS Aid. Ut
patel's order was read to the coun-
Gil half grin spread over the face
of the mayor. When it passed unan-
imously the grin broadened.
'Tll be down at your meeting to-
morrow morning" he told Utpatel
after the meeting. Lets hope we
can start something"
But this morning, when the mayor
had a chance to "start something"
he was to busy to act on the COM
mittee.
Aid. Utpatel and members of the
body, when the mayor did not show
up at time for the committee to con-
Yene, went to his Office and explain
ed that it was time for the session to
start. .
There were only three or four peo-
pie waiting in the mayors Office.
Usually 25 or 80 crowd the ante
rooms. But the mayor was too busy
to help in the work he was so en-
thusiastic about last night.
81 think it is the mayors duty to
act on this committee declared Mu-
nicipal Judge Harry Fisher. cit is the
shame of Chicago that we could not
find enough public spirited citizens to
help bring about arbitration"
Suppose we ask the papers to ap-
peal to public-spirited citizens to aid
the strikers" suggested Aid. Utpatel.
What's the use?" asked Aid Rich
ert. 'You know what has happened
in the past and what has been the
attitude of the newspapers"
Rabbi Rappaport, member of the
strike committee, painted a pitiful
word picture of the miseries of the
strikers.
"My people are desperate" he
said. Actual violence has occurred
