failed to rest us.
I've have been taking Dreco and
this medicine has helped US both very
much. 1t is pleasure to sit down to
a meal now, with good, healthy ap-

gas to make our stomachs uncomfort-

and that coat has been cleaned off

made on the commission at the last session of
the general assembly by certain interests that
wanted it abolished on the theory that it was
not protecting the rights of the consumers of the
products of utility companies. This argument
had it's basis in the fact that the commission was
forced during the warm period of rapidly
advancing prices-to increase rates of many
utilities. The commission had no control over
this condition. Now, when prices are beginning
to come down, when we are rapidly approaching
the state Of normally, the commission, in the
Richmond decision, proves that it is just as will
ing to reduce rates as it was to increase them.
The judgment of the commission relative to
the re-financing of the company also squares
with the dictates of justice. If the common
stock has no equity now, there is no reason why
it should be accepted as factor for rate making
purposes The company should re-organize its
finances, so that it's securities will be within the
$650,0O0 limit.

Seeing the American Viewpoint

The cogent reasoning of Secretary Hughes on
the zap problem is receiving the Endorsement of
European nations. One by one they are accept
ing the American policy of decentralization
of the island of zap. France and Italy have ex-
pressed their support of plan which would fore
stall a monopoly over this important point in the
cable communication of the world.
Although England has not expressed herself,
American diplomats feel that the support which
Australia and Canada have given to the Ameri-
can plan will induce her to exert pressure on
Japan to relinquish her claims.
Japan takes an exceedingly national view Of
the situation, which is fully in accord with her
determined policy of controlling everything in
the Pacific. But the international aspects of the
case, as we'll as the contention of the United
States that it has an equity in the island, must
ultimately prevail against the narrow national
ism of the Japanese. America is not asking for
a monopolistic control of the Island but affirms
that all nations should have free access and use
of zap for cable purposes.

The Gas Rate Decision

The fixing of the valuation of the property OF
the Richmond Light, Heat and Power company
for rate making purposes at $650,0O instead OF
in excess of $S50,OOO, as asked for by the COM
pany, as we'll as decrease in the rate which the
small consumer must pay for natural gas, is a
victory for the city of Richmond.
The commission says the purpose of decreas-
ing the rate for small domestic consumers and
increasing it for industrial users. is to help con-
serve the natural product, which is piped into
Richmond from the West Virginia fields
The order also directs the company to re-
finance so that the common stock, which has no
equity, is vii ped out, and the total amount of it's
securities does not exceed $650,O00. The valua-
tiail as fixed by the commission is in excess of
the $685., 900 for which the city contended, but a
valuation of $650,000 for rate making purposes
is considerably less than the valuation of
$3.50, 900, for which the company asked On this
point the city cannot complain.
Indianapolis dispatches said the Richmond
case would establish precedent in the fixing of
gas rates in Indiana, most of the problems at
issue in other cities of eastern Indiana that buy
the natural product from companies which in
turn buy the West Virginia product are settled
in the Richmond decision.
Judged as whole then, the consumers of
natural gas in Richmond have no to feel
that their interests were not safeguarded by the
city officials and that justice was not factor in
athe decision of the public service commission.
