ALBANY. April Is. - The Assembly
passed the Lawson-Joseph hill to-day
providing an so cent gas rate In the
Thirtieth and T~hirty-frst wards OF
Brooklyn. thus making a uniform so
cent price throughout the Borough of
Brooklyn. 1t already has passed the
Senate and now goes TO the Governor for
his signature.
Tin" measure caused much criticism Of
the Public Service Commission. and nj
one time IT looked as though the Legis-
latur" would take from the commission
the power TO MAKE" rates because Of its
failure TO act in this case. especially as
the present commission was appointed
TO succeed the old Democratic body
largely because the latter had failed e
pass on the rate cases.
