council PUTS OFF I
GAS UNIT INQUIRY
investigation Of the Proposed
Change in Standard Delayed
After Attack by WegIein
FEARS PLAN TO BOOST COST

No action was taken by Councils
committee on transportation and public
utilities at it's meeting yesterday on the
proposition to appropriate $4,000 for
an investigation of the United Gas I'm
provement Co.'S plan to change the
standard Of gas units It provides.
The measure under consideration pro-
vided for q complete survey of the gas
situation in Philadelphia TO prepare the
city for the opening of negotiations for
new agreement with the company.
The present one expires in 1927.
The ordinance was introduced in
Council by James A. Develin. admin
istration member from the Fourth dis
trict. as sequel to the ordinance
passed by the chamber temporarily sus-
pending the twenty two candle power
lighting standard fixed in the lease until
January !, 1921, and permitting the
substitution of heating standard OF
British thermal units. The minimum
daily average provided for in the ordi-
nance Is $40 British thermal units, the
approximate equivalent Of fourteen can
die power units.
Develin Explains
Mr.. Develin, who is a member Of the
committee, explained that a report by
experts would enable Council to de-
termine whether standard of British
thermal units should be made perma-
nent. Recommendation for the future
conduct Of the gas works, he said,
would be basis for future decision
by a succeeding Council as to what
should be done with the plant after the
expiration of the present lease.
Richard Weglein, president of Coun-
Gil, upon whose motion action was post
poned, sharply attacked the ordinance.
Let the gas users decide the ques-
tion Of standards and not experts he
said. "Let users of gas compare their
bills under the standard of British
thermal units with those under the
candle power standard. Mr.. Weglein
added that until a decision was had
from the Jury Of consumers he would
oppose any step to make permanent the
newly authorized temporary standard.
Weg!ein Attacks Plan
''Lct us not be swept away by the
country wide movement by gas COM
panes to increase their profits by re-
ducing the quality of gas he con-
tnued. II am satisfied that the move
ment for n change Of standards is not
only to conserve oil but also to add to
profits by saving OIL" Mr. Weglein
referred to the statement by Samuel Il.
Bodinc, president Of the United Gas
Improvement Co., that the company
requested The British thermal unit be-
cause of the shortage of oil available
for the manufacture Of gas.
Mr.. Develin said that If a decision
whether the heat standard should be
permanent were not made by Council
before January 1, 1921. the United
Gas Improvement Co. would request
that it be continued.
