weakness is apt to result.
It was formerly the custom to disin-
feet houses. bedclothes and so forth
after scarlet fever and other germ
diseases. but it is generally believed
now by physicians that this does little
good and that by the time the germs
are dead in the patient they have long
since died OFT in his surroundings, and
his clothes and books and furniture
can not give the disease TO anyone
else. Tie worst enemies of scarlet
fever germs, as of any others, are
fresh air and sunshine. and room
that is thoroughly arid and summed
and cleaned should not harbor them
after the patient himself is well.

FEDERATION RAPS
UTILITIES BOARD
FOR RATE POLICY
Clayton Claims Gas Plant
Should Have Re -
valuation.

Severe criticism of the Public
Utilities Commission was voiced at
the regular meeting of the Fedora
tion of Citizens Associations in the
District Building last night.
Heplying to a question as to what
would be the condition of public
utility rates in the District of Co.
lumbia without the Commission.
William Nick. Clayton. chairman of
the federation's public utilities COM
mission, said. THE Public Utilities
Commission has been a rate e-mak ing
body for the public utilities. 1t has
been used to guarantee returns to
these companies, and it has done it
through the rate-makinE process.
|. If there were no utilities
commission. il is my opinion that the
public utilities would be charging
not more than the rates specified in
their charters. The only way to
change these rates would be
through an act Of Congress"
Would Keep Commission.
Mr.. Clayton stated that it was
probable that some of the public
utilities would be forced into bank
ruptcy without the means of ap-
pealing to the Commission for ad-
justment Of rates. Il DIP not want
to abolish the Commission" he said.
but I believe il should call for a
new appraisement of the real prop
erty of the utility companies. For
instance. there has never been a
revaluation of the Washington Gas
Company since the original ap-
praisal. The,>people of Washington
are paying returns on depreciation
plus items ef expenditure added by
the company. There are other sim
liar instances. 1t is these things
that the Commission should watch.
as well as to guarantee dividends
to the companies"
