expenses during the winter months
amounted to $500 at Winfield and

paid under an eight cent rate. With
gas at IS cents, the cost would be So,

wiped out under the decision of the

STILL FILING SUITS
Attorneys for p. L. c. and Kansas
Natural Keep Busy.

Members OF the legal department
of the Bristow utilities commission
told Robert Stone. attorney for the
Kansas Natural Gas company, that
they did not know whether they
would file a supplemental suit for
more gas At the same time they gave
Stone copies of their petition.
Stone is senior member OF the law
firm of Stone & McDermott When
the firm filed motions for the removal
of the gas cases to the federal court
McDermott did not know that the
supplemental suit of the state com
mission had been filed.
Mr.. Jackson, representing the
commission gave me copies of the
supplemental petition, but told me he
did not know whether the suit would
be filed. In fact he said that he re-
garded the matter of little concern
and did not believe action would be
taken" said McDermott.
Supplemental petitions for the re-
moval of gas cases to the federal
court were filed today by the COM
pany's attorneys. Similar action in
support of state jurisdiction was taken
by the commission as announced in a
new record for the morning Bris-
towla.

MILK FOR BABIES
Appeal for Aid Sent Out Thru
American Churches.
Two Million Infants in Ger
many and Austria Suffer.

New York, Jan. S.-An appeal for
funds to provide 1000, 600 babies in
Germany and Austria with milk will
go out over the United States through
it's churches Sunday. The babies of
both the Teutonic powers are suffer-
ing intensely for want of milk, ac-
cording to DR.. Edmund Won Mach,
head of the citizens committee for
food shipments. Reports from Ger
many indicate, it is stated. that the in
FAINT mortality is increasing to an
alarming degree.
Cardinals Farley and O'Connell are
reported to have both approved the
plan to send a milk fund appeal out
through the churches. Archbishop
Mundelein, of Chicago, is a member
OF the committe urging the plan.
President Wilson has signified his ap-
prevail by allowing Secretary Lansing
to ask Great Britain for safe conduct
for vessels carrying the milk to Ger
many.
The Hamburg american and North
German Lloyd lines. it was stated to-
day, have volunteered to provide a
steamer for carrying the milk across
the ocean, providing safe conduct is
assured.
The crying need for such relief was
voiced today by Alfred Crosse, a mem
Der of the American Relief society,
who has just returned from Berlin.
1.-The milk shortage in Germany is
becoming acute" he said. Milk
tickets are being distributed by the
government. Strict economy is neces-
sary in order that the small children
may have their portion.
"Other food is plentiful, and the
adults have not suffered. 1t is the
infants and expectant mothers who are
being made to feel the dearth."
