sey and Pennsylvania will be represented.

BUSINESS MEN TO ASK
GAS RATE REDUCTION
Want City to Appoint Commits
sion to Investigate Cost of
Making and Distribution

The Public Service Commission will be
asked, in all probability, 20 hear the pro-
posal that Philadelphia's gas rates be re-
duced. Edward A. NoppeI, vice president
and chairman of the board of directors Of
made this statement when the board ad-
Journed after a meeting yesterday.
The directors recommend that at its first
meeting of the fall, to be held Thursday
evening in the Bingham Hotel, the associ-
alton should take up the request Of the
North Philadelphia Business Mems Associ-
alton that the city create commission to
study the cost of producing and dstribut-
! ing gas here, with n view to lowering the
rate of 81 per 1000 feet without diminish
ing the revenue of twenty cents per 1000
| feet received by the city. The recommend
ing resolution contained a proviso that the
city's twenty cents should not be disturbed.
The directors were reported TO be at a
loss to know how the United Gas Improve
ment Company could be compelled to lower
its rates, inasmuch as it has a contract
with the city running until 1927. Data
will be obtained to the cost of produc-
ing and manufacturing gas in other cities.
II was pointed out that no reliable in
formation as to the profits of the United
Gas Improvement Company can be obtained,
because in its reports the company Jumps
figures from cities all over the United
States.
The directors felt" said Mr. Noppel,
that the cost of manufacturing gas had
decreased in recent years and that the
profits had been augmented by a greater
utilization of waste products"
Louis J. Suess. chairman of the asso-
cations committee on municipal affairs
said that the resolution of the North Phlla-
dephla Association would be presented
Thursday night, but that no Recommendation
would be made. as no facts upon which to
base one had been obtained.
The North Philadelphia Association hai
asked the seventy-two other local bodies IL
Philadelphia. well as the United Asso
citation, to support the resolution.

Germany made
her great blunder
at the outset of the
war, a blunder that
has been twice re-
peated-once by Ger
many and once by the
Allies. Winston Spencer
Churchill, formerly First
Lordof the British Admiralty,
shows that If Germany had
never built a single dread
nou9ht, the control of the
British navy could not have
been more effective than Ii Is.

a tour of the north country circuit.
1t was their first visit to that ec-

much pleased with the work being
done there. Sunday they assisted
Rev. o. P. Shenefelt at the NJ. Z.

noon the regular quarterly conference
business session was held and many
plans formulated for the years work
and improvements to be made. Later
on Bro. Van will give his celebrated
lecture on "What boy saw and heard
at the battle of Gettysburg" AS this
has never been given here, a large
crowd is anticipated. There will be
a musical program of patriotic songs
in connection, and it is especially de-
sired that all old soldiers both Union
