'SLASHES IN GAS
RATESORDERED
Cut of Five Cents Per
1000 Cubic Feet Decreed
By Commission.
STARTS ON THE 18TH
New Figure Gives Return
Of Over Z Per Cent to
: Company. =

After having considered the mat
ter OF gas rates for almost four
weeks. the Public Utilities Commis-
sion yesterday ordered a reduction
o: cents per 1000 cubic feet.
The new schedule, which. accord
ing to the Commissions order, will
take effect on March Is, will be as
follows:
Rate of sehedule..
For less than $4,000 cubic feet
of gas per month the sate win
be s1.O5.
For $4,000 cubic feet and less than
100000 cubic feet per month the
rate will be 81.
For 100000 cubic feet and less
than 100000 cubic feet per month
the rate will be s5 ceRts.
For 100000 cubic feet and less
than 100000 cubic feet per month
the rate will be 30 cents.
For 100000 cubic feet or more
per month the rate will be IS cents.
Return of Per Cent.
The Commis ssion states in its ex.
planation of the new schedule that
1t will give the gas companies Il
return IN excess OF per cent. Last
year the companies earned q return
Of s.43 per cent on the Commits
sion's valuation. In their testi-
mcny the companies had estimated
that a continuatioa OF the present
rates would bring a return Of ssS
per cent during 1922.
The new schedule diffessN from the
previous also In that the second rate
of 81 extends only 70 100000 cubic
feet instead Of 100000. This change
Dement'S the middle class of con-
sumer.
In accordance with the method
adopted in previous decisions, the
present Public Utilities Commission
has made the rate effective until
such time as 1t sees At to call an
other hearing. The two gas COM
panies are called on to file their
new schedules within ten days.

 On Dec. 10th last. Coxon took the case up with United States Senator Ashurst. senior senator from Arizona. The senator at once got behind the case. In exactly 25 days Senator Ashurst had the compensation for Jewel. This goes to show what a Un'ted States senator can do.

There will be 125 in the party, including the wives and daugh- ters of some of the players. They will leave Kansas City soon and al ready have made arrangements to play a tournament in Fl Paso with Fort Bliss teams.
 Alberts received telegram from one member of the team yesterday stating that he believed the members of the party would be glad to stop over two or three weeks in Douglas if the women could be made comfort able during their stay here. The polo players pay all their expenses and any admission charged to the games usually is given to some charitable or ganization.
 The army officials at Camp Jones are cooperating with Alberts in mak ing arrangements for the visit of the eastern teams, offering the use of tne army stables for their mounts.
