MAIL TRUCKSOM|T
MANOR PARK BOXES
Two Eliminated From Routes
Until Roads Are Put in
Safe Condition.

Serious damage to several United
States mail trucks which came to
grief in badly conditioned roads has
resulted in the removal of two mail
collection boxes from the Manor Park
section, it was explained today by
John Fl. Muirhead. superintendent OF
carriers at the city post office The
boxes will not be replaced until the
roads are put i'll a condition which
will permit the passage of the trucks
without undue hazard, he said.
The removal of the collection boxes
at Second and Sheridan streets and
at Second and Quackenbos streets
followed closely behind the action of
the Senate District appropriation COM
mittee in cutting from the House Dis
trict appropriation the funds for the
repair of one of the seven streets
asked for by the Manor Park Cit
iZenS' ASsocia ton.

association, and John ID. Smoot, vice
president and chairman of the aSSOcia-
tlun committee on streets, this morn
ing and yesterday afternoon were call
ing upon District officials and members

approved funds that the Senate struck
out restored to the appropriation.
Among those visited were Senator
Phipps. chairman of the Senate sub
committee on District appropriations.
and Representative Funk. chairman of
the House subcommittee, which had
provided the funds for the repair of
one street.
The Manor Park Citizens Associa-
ton about a month ago accompanied
members of the House subcommittee
on tour Of that community and in
dicated a dozen streets which the or
ganization wanted conditioned. AT the
suggestion of the Representatives
however, the association cut it's i'm.
provement request to include seven
streets and when the appropriation
was voted by the House only one
street was provided for. When the
House District appropriation went to
the Senate. that body cut out the
House-approved funds for that one

and amend the public utilities act &c
permit a merger of the GeorgetoWl
and Washington Gas Light companies
was conducted before the pubic utll
tiles subcommittee of the House lbs
tlict committee today, with Chairman
Zihlman presiding,
This bill also would permit the
Washington Gas Light Co. to make
extensions and authorizes them frorl
time to time to increase their capi'ai-
ization by issuance of capital STOCK.
Mai. CovelI Questioned.
Representative Reid of Illinois close
IN questioned Maj. W. +. K. CoVeii'
assistant TO the Engineer Commits
sioner and executive officer of the
Public Utilities Commission. MAJ
Covell stated that there is no appllca-
ton by the company to increase its
capitalization.
He said that the first section of the
hin permitting consolidation would be
of distinct advantage to the pubhc pc
cause the companies are now getting
full advantage of the merger IN TACT
although not in name.
Mr.. Reid said that the bill carries
no compulsion to merge, even IL the
..on1nanies are granted permission to
increase their capitalization. lie sald
that he would support compulsory

TO put n motion made by MI ReId 10
strike out the increased capitalization
provision until attorneys for the gas
company had been heard. The attor-
news included Swager Shirley. former
chairman of the House appropriations
committee, and George 7. Hoover, spe-
cial attorneys, and Ben. Minor the
regularly employed attorney tor the
Washington Gas Light Co.
Representative Reid then offered
motion to adjourn for one week,
which was not approved. and, as ne
withdrew TO attend another hearing
on the Sunday blue law legislation,
served notice that he wished no action
tawe on the gas merger bill in his
absence.
Effect OH Prices.
Representative Hammer asked both
Mai. Covell and Mr. Shirley if the pas
sage of this legislation would beneft
the consumers by lowering the price
of gas. Mai. Covells reply was that
it would be in that direction. as 1t
would mean a reduction in cost of de-
livering gas to consumers. but his
argument showed that the effect
would be rather to establish basis
10 prevent increase in rates rather
than towards a reduction of rates.
Mr.. Shirley replied that it would not
necessarily or Immediately reduce the
price to consumers.
Mr.. Shirley showed that there are
now two separate entities under two
characters from Congress, which are
in reality one financial corporation,
and that the passage of the bill would
make easier the financial "set-up' and
reduce overhead costs approximately
900 a year.
The testimony showed that while
the ideal financial set-up for a public
service corporation is $3.50 or 60-40

well here!"
That's what C. B. White says of
Suffolk, in the famous Judith Basin

know, because he came here from
Illinois about ten years ago with
$500, and is today farming 500
acres.
Mr.. Whites crops average per
acre, Fl bushels of oats, IS bushels
of barley, 20 bushels of corn, 300
bushels Of potatoes, and 21s tons OF
alfalfa. Besides this he has a
garden where he raises more and
better vegetables than he did in the
East.
Cattle, hogs, turkeys, chickens
are all raised easily and do well.
His mich cows average him 5000

as much as his whole capital when
