able Doubt Certificate.

Supreme Court Justice Gavegan re-
served decision yesterday on an appli-
cation for a certificate of reasonable
doubt and appeal in the case of John
r. Hettrick, convicted of conspiracy
with labor leaders and master plumbers
in restraint of trade.
Robert II. Elder, attorney for Het-
trick, based his application on the 'un-
constitutionality," he alleged, of the
sections of the general business law
under which Hettricl1 was indicted,
The same flaws exist in these sections.
he contended. as led the United States
Supreme Court TO decide against the
validity of the section Of the Lever
act Furnishing the charging Of an 'un-
just or unreasonable pr ."
Kenneth NJ. Spence, special Deputy
Attorney General, vino opposed tho
motion. pointed out that the State
statute is not dssmilar 10 the Federal
Sherman law, which has been inter
preted by the Supreme Court as not
preventing combinations to advance the
lawful interests Of a business. but hold
ing unlawful any combinations to re-
strain competition. And that was the
sole purpose of the HettrcS code of
practice" he added.

BROOKLYN UNION CASE UP
City VIII Seek to Have New
Price Cut, as Labor and Ma

BROOKLYN UNION CASE UP

Efforts are being made by other gas
companies to extend over the entire city
the rate Of $3.50 a thousand cubic feet
recently granted 10 the Consolidated.
the Bronx Gas and Electric and the
Kings County Gas companies. according
II announcement yesterday in the Office
Of John Il. O'Brien, Corporation Counsel.
Mr.. O'Brien added that failure to obtain
advancement OF the city's appeal to the
United States Supreme Court OF the so
cent statutory rate case means that the
entire case now becomes academic by
reason Of the passage of the bill Great
ing the new Public Service Commission
with jurisdiction over rates, and that
rates now established through court
orders win become the prevailing rates
until otherwise ordered by the commits
sion,
Ia the opinion OF Mr., O'Brien from
two 10 four Sears will elapse before
petition for relief to the new commission
can BE advanced to the point where a
decision can be made The Corporation
Counsel confessed himself extremely
pcssimistic over the outlook for lower
as rates but said he would continue
tlhe fight.
Notice was served yesterday on the
Corporation Counsel or an order OBJ

ask confirmation of a masters report

OF the report, the Corporation Counsel
said. would give the company the power
to increase it's rates, and he expected
that such an increase would carry the
rate ut least to S1.50. if not more.
Mr.. O'Brien charged yesterday that
in opposing the argument OF the eighty
cent gas appeal the gas companies acted
In bad faith in that they previously had
indicated their willingness to have the
case argued and decided.
: Mr.. O'Brlen said also that the city
win see kto have the court order per-
mitting a rate or $i50 modified on the
ground that the costs Of labor and ma
terials the rise of which was the basis
of increased rates, have declined. In
that particular also he charged bad
faith. in that the companies had not
brought about q reduction correspond
ing 10 the fall he contends has taken
place in prices.

alton OF a State Board Of Estimate and

The Board Of Estimate is to be COM
posed OF the Governor, Comptroller and

nual departmental statements Of desired
appropriations must be filed with the
board and the Legislative budget COM
mittee, and the board is to take over the
duties of the central supply committee
for the purchase Of supplies.
The bill appropriates 100000. so that
the preparations for next years budget

diately. The Governors economy plan
already has been put in operation by the
cutting OF 1000 unnecessary job hold
ers from the payroll and reducing the
requested appropriations by more than
$40. COO, 900. 1t is expected that even
