Price of Gas Lower
In Fall, Perhaps

The attention of the officers of Pub
called to certain published statemets
relating to the likelihood of a change
in the price charged for gas, because
of falling oil costs and other operating
expenses. These statements have their
inception, apparently, in the action re-
Gently taken by the Consolidated Gas
Company of New York in announcing
a reduction in the price of gas in a
part of the territory served by it and
its subsidiaries on August l from $1.50
to $1.23, made possible by Il new con-
tract for oil which that company has
secured.
The Consolidated company says that
all it desires is continued fair return
upon the value of its property devoted
to the public use. That is exactly the
position of Public Service Gas Com
pany. 1t stands squarely upon the
principles of law and fact determined
in the Passaic Gas case, except only
as the same may have been lawfully
modified by subsequent economic de-
velopments. The present high price
of oil will, unfortunately, last, in the
case of Public Service Gas Company.
at least until well in the autumn.
When the earnings of the company
have been stabilized, its credit re-
stored from the chaos of the last few
years to a point where it is sufficient
to attract the investment of the new
capital necessary for the company's
development, and reduction in oper-
ating expenses make it possible, the
company will be entirely willing to
make>such reduction in price as these
economic necessities will permit. In
these respects the rights of the COM
pany and the interest of the public
are identical.

For Dark Woodwork.

The best way to clean dark-coi
ored painted doors and woodwork
is to take q pail of clean warm
water and pour little parafIin into
1t and then wash the paint all over,
working downward with a piece Of
old Turkish toweling. Next, dry with
a piece of clean cloth and polish with
substantial buster. To attempt to
clean such paint by hard rubbing
is a mistake. 1t does not need it and
will only be rubbed away.

That there are Jews in favor

Communism, just as there are
Jews in favor of international
capitalism, is known and fully ap-

whole, conditions among the
Jewish sections of the Commun-

Wet regime than they were under
the regime of the Tsars. The
Jews are actively cooperating

JEWISH HERO ATTACKED

ceiving the Iron Cross of the first
class, seeing in one of the streets
of Berlin that news dealer was
offering for sale an anti-Semitic
newspaper, in which the headline
stated that Jews were responsible
for Germany's losing the war,
turned to the dealer and told him
that he ought to be ashamed to
sell such newspaper.
The newsdealer resented the
remark and fell upon the hero,
beating him and drawing crowd
around him, all of whom aided"
the news dealer in thrashing the
Jewish ex-soldier. Fucker finally
managed to extricate himself
from the crowd and drew a pistol
in self defense, nevertheless he
was surrounded by the mob and
it was after a severe struggle that
the police saved him from sure
death.
He was arrested on a charge of
shooting in a public street, but at
trial defended by the Zionist
leader, DR.. Alfred Klee, the Court
set free the prisoner.

been the teaching of the church
for about eighteen hundred years.
That is the black strand that runs
thru the whole Gospel. And the
Jews have been cursed by God
to be degraded and prosecuted as
a punishment for that crime.
That, too, the church has taught

their services in addition to contrib

health parades, carrying large models
Of flies, mosquitoes, rats and other
enemies to health. The older boys
conducted Open-air classes in the mar
ket places, where regular instruction
in personal hygiene was given to chill
dren and incidentally to the grownups
who were looking on. They distrib-
uted handbills and gave street-corner
lectures on health. Being born actors,
they advanced the cause greatly by
giving health plays. Part of the con-
