The Gas Decision.

One thing which the Supreme Court
decision annulling the 80 cent. gas
law of 1906 should impress on the
public mind is the fact that the con-
test waged ostensibly on behalf of
the people was carried on without
regard for common sense. The whole
procedure, from the time the District
Court enjoined the enforcement of
the so cent law until the final ap-
peal was taken, is open to suspicion
Of insincerity ON the part Of the
Hylan administrators Corporation
Counsel, who was presumed to be
fighting for the people. So unsolic-
itous were the public champions con-
cerning the Supreme Courts time
and the real cause at issue that they
filed an appeal consisting of 21,000
printed pages, so much of 1t irrele-
want and immaterial that the court
itself said that another such occur
renee might cause the case at issue
to be thrown out.
Throughout the gas rate dispute so
much political subterfuge was in
dulged in by demagogues that many
persons lost track of what the fight
ing was about. The voluminous testi-
mony, charges, counter charges. ap-
peals, injunctions, amended appeals:
increased rates, notifications and
special rulings filing $1,000 pages OBJ
scured the comparatively simple facts
on which an agreement could have
been reached and an equitable gas
rate fixed long ago. The comment of
the Supreme Court on this phase of
the case runs thus.
1.-THE ~5adamental question pre-
sented FOR determination was
whether the so cent rate had been
coniscatory under conditions exist
ing during 1918 and 1919 and prob
ably would continue so to be. Con-
sldering the rulings herein. WILCOX
VS.. Consolidated Gas Company. and
other cases, the answer required
little more than an appreciation of
facts not very difficult to ascertain"
The decision referred to was one
given by the Supreme Court after
the passage of the law In 1906. In
this it was held that the law was
of hat q
the 80 cent rate was high enough
to provide a return on the gas COM
pany's investment; but that this
rate would be confiscatory and un-
constitutional when 1t failed to yield
the proper return. Since March 30,
1921, the court declared, the Public
Service Commission has had full
power, without recourse to legal ac-
tion, to fix a rate for gas unre-
stricted by the maximum specified in
the act of 1905.
The mandate of the Supreme Court
Is clear. The Public Service Com
mission Is empowered to ascertain
the valuation on which the company
is entitled to earn a legitimate re-
turn, and upon this valuation the
commission is to fix the charge to be
made for gas.
The status of gas rates is exactly
where II was two years ago except
that there is now an opportunity for
the Public Service Commission to
perform its duty and put an end to
the confusion which has prevented
consumers from knowing just what
they were to be charged.

SPARE THE RINSING
AND SPOIL THE.
CLOTHES

No matter how carefully you
have washed your clothes, if you.
have not rinsed every bit of soap
out, they will still be yellow. Use
4 soap that dissolves completely
and there is less danger of par
ticles sticking to the clothes to
yellow them.
Rinse is an entirely new kind of
soap that dissolves instantly,
making both water and clothes
slippery with its pure, rich suds.
1t soaks all the dirt out of the
clothes so that no hard rubbing
is needed to get them spotlessly
clean.
! Rinse is easier to rinse out than
a soap with solid particles to stick
to the fabric. But because the
rich Rinse suds loosen every bit
of dirt, very thorough rinsing is
necessary to carry off the dirt.
Rinse is rapidly replacing bar
soap for the family wash.
