ROSSLYN GAS CASE
HEARD IN RICHMOND

RICHMOND, Va, December 8 (Spe-
ciaD.-Sanford N. Whitwell, secre-
tary-treasurer of the Rosslyn Gas
Company, was the first and principal
witness before the state corporation
commission here yesterday at the
hearing Of the petition of the COM
pany for permission to increase gas
rates from $3.50 to $3.50 per thousand
cubic feet. -
Maj: E. W. r. Ewing. representing
the consumers of Rosslyn, requested
information from Mr.. Whitwell re-
garding complaints, pressure and con-
ditions of service. In reply to one of
the questions, the gas company Of
fetal said that he receiy ed more COM
plants daily from the Rosslyn con-
sumers than from the entire patron
age Of the company in Takoma Park,
Md, in a month. He said that the
difference was due to high and low
pressure service.
Supporting the plea Of the company
for q higher rate, he testified that
the company had made a contract to
supply certain of its customers at
Fort Myer with gas at 81 per thou
sand feet, and that the making of this
gas was costing the company $1.40,
This contract was made at a time
when conditions warranted the price
and allowed for a profit. but mounting
costs have destroyed the advantage.
It is expected that the hearing will
be completed today. Announcement
Of the decision will not be made for
some time.
