Rome, March .s.-Pl--The Ma tlanal Catholic center party replying tC the address Of Pope Plus before 1he diocesan board of Rome declares in communiquc that the pontiffs s judgments "saddcn the consciences of Catholcs sincerely and profoundly devoted 10 the church and Pope

 The party defines it's makeup as ''an association of Italians professino 9 Catholic principles hut developing their political activity under their own individual responsibility: clearly distinct therefore from associations of Italian Catholics in the action of of which. nevertb beless. many mem bers Of the National Italian center arc active as well as many other Catholics of diverse political thought and attitude"

ADJOURN HEARINGS
ON GAS VALUATION
Utilities Commission to Re-
sumo Case Wednesday.
Split on Depreciation.

Public hearings on the valuation of the
Washington and Georgetown Gas Light
Companies before the Public Utilities
Commission viii be resumed at $3.50
am. Wednesday. The hearings were
adjourned yesterday after completion
of testimony as to depreciation by r.
o. Luqueer, engineer retained by the
companies to make an appraisal OF
their properties. The delay was de-
signed to allow Peoples Counsel Ralph
". Fleharty an opportunity to organ
ize his case before he starts cross
examination on the lengthy testimony
of the company's expert.
At the hearings yesterday Swagar
Sherley, counsel for the companies,
stated that they would need at least
l0 more days for the introduction of
direct evidence on the valuation of the
Washington Gas Light Co. Taking into
consideration the time needed for
discrimination, redirect and re-
discrimination, the time needed for
the presentation of the Georgetown Co. S
case in its entirety, the time needed
for argument of the cases and several
necessary adjournments to allow the
commission to attend to other business,
1t will probably take at least two
months more to complete the case.
Luqueer's depreciation testimony will
be the center of one of the big bat
ties of the case. H. Carl Wolf, engi-
neer employed by the commission to
make an appraisal of the properties,
estimated that they had suffered de-
probation amounting to $4,000 900.
Luqueers corresponding figure was
1929, ITO.
Since the figure for depreciation must
be Subtracted from the figure deter
mined as cost to reproduce the plant
new in the final valuation, it is seen
that the two sides are at odds by
$2,000,000 on single item of total
valuation, which, according to Lu-
queer's figure, amounts to $27, ,444,S10.

Resolutions adopted by the associa-
ton point out that the bridge has not
been enlarged or materially strength
ened since its erection 80 years ago,
and that it is now unsafe under the
loads to which 1t is subjected during
rush hours. The narrowneSS of the

The resolutions were signed by r. G..
