From Si.15 to 81 40 Per
Thousand.

The announcement made at Tren-
ton, N. j., to-day that the state Board
Of Public Utilities has lowered the
heating standard Of gas supplied to
consumers by the Public Service Cor
poration, while permitting an increase
in price to $40 per 1000 cubic feet,
stirred UP a storm OF protest in New
ERIK and other cities and towns in
That State, from Camden northward.
Commissioner Raymond OF the De-
partment OF Streets and Public I'm
provements declared that he proposes
to submit the whole matter to the
City Commission when It meets to-
morrow and ask that body to take
immediate action.
This is perfectly outrageous
rate" said Mayor Gillen OF Newark,
for by reducing the quality OF gas
the board really allows the gas COM
panies to charge the people Of the
state $l.55 per 1000 cubic feet, We
could not expect anything else from
tho present board. The Public Ser
vice Corporation can get anything 1t
wants from IT, There will be no cure
for the state Of affairs until the Gov
ernor gives the state a new board"
The board's decision reduced the
heating standard from 900 to 525 Brit
ish thermal units. The Public Ser
vice Corporation asked for an in
crease of 40 cents, but the Utilities
Board cut that figure TO 20.
