Let There Be Adjustment of Gas
Rates in Interest of Fairness
By BILL PRICE .

III Is not to be considered probable that the Public
ouhues Commission is going to allow the public to be
charged the increased gas rate from May 49, the usual date
OF the reading OF meters instead of from June ordered
by that body II is not probable, either, that HOWARD
REESlDE president of the gas light company will insist
on going into the pubcs pocket for the small differ
ence involved in these dates The gas company has been
good terms with the public and Mr. Reeside is the
man to permit i'll feeling take the place of mutual under
standing.
The best plan, in fairness to producer and consumer
will be to evolve method of adjustment that will be
regarded by the public square and just The Commission
rendered its decision for increased gas rates the
ton that the gas company paying such steep prices for
gas oil it cannot longer make at the former price and
obtain fair returns upon investment That being the basis
Of the decision the Commission may not be inclined to
change the date of the increased price from June to June
49, when the next reading of meters takes place upon which
bills made out.
But at the time is not the business of the public
to pay increased rates to the company ahead of the time
scheduled by the Commission.
The Commission and the people of this town have been
decidedly fair in willingness to allow public utilities to
charge sufficient rates to obtain fair returns. The public
has been than fair In securing returns upon
fair valuations the public utilities getting the best Of
things under existing living conditions, and consumers,
whose salaries not going up with the cost of keeping
alive, are being worsted at every turn.
If the confusion dates for charging the public
gas cannot be out by sort of adjustment
the next bills rendered. then the public should be entitled
to the benefit Of the mix up AS between the treasury of the
company and the pocketbooks of the public nobody
doubt whose purses the eanes and least spare

How Much For Wheat?
What Price for Bread?

What is going to happen to the price of wheat and
bread? The Government fixed the wheat price at $226
bushe That ruling has cost the farmers of the country
many hundreds of millions of dollars shown by the fact
that wheat is quoted at $3.50 bushel. The wheat
gamblers afraid themselves to take off the id and
the gambling wide open fearing what may happen to
the price of whea-and in connection Herewith to them
selves
It is great temptation now of course to buy wheat at
$3.50 and watch it to $780, which might do. Profes
sonal gamblers say that they would like to start the
bling game going July 1st Flour say Better wait
until September 1st.'
The Government usual says nothing, not being
cerned yet in the gambling that will mean, inevitably
increasing the cost of bread.
question more important than all the others is How
you persuade farmers to produce enough wheat?"
When you know that farmer gets much less for milk
than its retail price, that for the price of suit of clothes
he raises enough wool to make fifty suits of Clothes
know that something is wrong and that he is not getting his
share of what the consumer pays
He must GET his share there will arise in this
try question more important than prohibition anything
else, namely, FOOD SHORTAGE.
