Cheaper Product Is Plea of
Taxpayers.

The Citizens Gas Company is with
in per cent OF catching up with
the arrearage in common stock
dividends accumulated in the last
twenty years.
The company in 1907 started under
a trust agreement whereby 10 per
cent a year is guaranteed on COM
mon stock.
Some years the company met this
dividend easily. but at intervals
dropped behind so that by 1925 a
huge dividend aef1cit had piled up.
In 1926 the cempany's profits were
so high that $46O,OOO was paid out
in dividends on the $2,OOO,0OO worth
of common stock. equaling a % per
cent return. Thirteen per cent Of
this went toward making up the ar
rearage.
Further decrease in the arrearage
was made last year, as well as pay
ment Of the regular 10 per cent COM
mon stock dividend and the regular
7 per cent on preferred.
Taxpayers Insistent
How much was paid on the arrear-
age last year will not be known until
the 1925 report Of the company is
filed.
Announcement has been made by
an Indianapolis attorney that he had
been retained by a group of tax
payers to file a petition for re-
-
reduction in rates.
Law provides the commission must
act upon such petitions. signed by
at least ten taxpayers. The tax
payers are understood to be deter
mined to get a rate reduction fo-
both domestic and power consumers
on the ground that the present rates
are earning abnormally high profits.
Clarence L. Kirk. vice president
and general manager, said that un-

company win be able Before 1928 to
voluntarily ask for material rate
reduction.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-Pos-
sessing as they do many charac-
teristics not found in any other
capital ships afloat, the new Brit
ish dreadnaughts Nelson and Rod
ney are being studied by naval
constructors in an effort to de-
tern1nle what effect they should
have upon the designs OF the
replacement battleships to be built
under the terms of the Washing
ton naval treaty, beginning in
1881.
These vessels embody the les
sons the British learned from the
naval conflicts In the World War,
and naturally their plans are care
fully guarded by the British ad-
miralty. However, it Is known
that in many respects their de-
sign is distinct departure from
the dreadnaughts which preceded
them.
'uiI Pozzte8 eXpert&
One of the most noticeable
changes, and one puzzling naval
officers most, is the absence Of
any signs of protective armor on
the hull. These officers have
about reached the conclusion that
the main hull of the ship is in
side the shell showing, and that
attached to it is the heavy armor
these ships carry.
This conclusion Is predicated
upon the known theory of British
naval constructors that a torpedo
should not first strike the major
hull OF the ship. 1t was because
of this that the British adopted
the blister as protection to the
main hull in its older craft. Tor
