cent and in tobacco prices of 100 to

parliament has also passed a law au-
thorizing the government to pledge
it's resources as security for foreign
credits while the government has re-
duced the subsidies for the purchase
OF food supplies.
The only remaining detail to put
the plan into execution, NJ. Avenal
said. was the consent Of the United
States to suspend for twenty years
its lien to the amount of S24.00O.0OO.

of depreciation rates was commenced
today by the Public Utilities Commits
sion in connection with its inquiry to
determine what. If any. changes
should be made in the present charges

Interstate Commerce Commission in
providing for depreciation by reason
of it's conducting an interstate busi-
ness.
Response was made for the Capital
Traction Company by John H. Hanna.
vice president and general manager,
who expressed the view 1t would not
DC nuVisaple or practicable to nave
n single depreciation standard es-
tnbltshed for all utilities. in view OF
the various elements involved in the
character and conduct of the services
| rendered.
Called Operating Expense.
The Washington Railway and Elec-
! trio Company and subsidiary COM
panies were represented by Attorney
! Osborn I. Yellott. He contended that
depreciation is an operating expense
| that must be born by the public and
| that rates Of depreciation must be
sufficient to establish reserves for re-
placement Of property in order that
service may be continued and efficient.
Mr.. Yellott read from the utilities
I law in support of this view.
, The commission. following the close
| of the depreciation hearings, Thurs
day. will begin immediate considera- :
| tion of the rates for service the
! utilities will be permitted to charge,
! with the view of putting the new
! schedule into effect around August l.

From His Formula.

Everett r. Carpenter. druggist at

day filed suit in the District Supreme
Court against John NJ. Lawrence and
the National Products Manufacturing

partnership in the business of the de-
Sendants and for an accounting. Mr..
Carpenter says that by use of form
ula given by him to Lawrence in 1913

5000 600; has brought house 1862 Spring
road and purchased stocks. The
plaintiff claims to be entitled to one
half the profits. He Is represented
by Attorneys i. H. Linton and w. c.

According to the plaintiff, Law
renee was a salesman for a silver
cleaning compound and visited his
store in September. 1913. when he in
formed Lawrence that he had bet
ter combination of chemicals, which
would be more effective than the one
Lawrence was selling. After a dem

agreed with him to exploit his form
ula unequal profits basis. The plain
tiff asserts that Lawrence in 1914
registered the name they had agreed
on as a trade mark in his oYn name
and in March, 1916. incorporated the
defendant company.

ENGLISH OFFICIAL TONGUE.
Will Undoubtedly Be Used, But
French will Be Permitted.

Though not settled as yet. 1t is un-
officially stated that English undoubt-
edly will be the official language en-
ployed at the international disarma-
ment conference to be held in this
city this fall, but that no objection
will be raised to the use OF French or
sions on the part Of delegates who
may not be familiar with English:
the diplomatic language of the world.
but in recent years it has been sup
planted by English at important in
fernational conferences held in Eng
iish-speakins countries. Usually the
matter is determined by the govern
ment at whose instance the conference
is held, but sometimes it is deter
mined by the conferees themselves.
That latter course was followed at
the peace conferences at Paris and
Versailles, at which both English and
French were used by the delegates in
