UPSEPT. Il
Times Staff Photo

Official notice was given today
by the Public Utilities Commits
sion, through E. v. Fisher, execu-
tive secretary. of the hearing to
be held September II on the pro-
posed new rate schedule of the
Georgetown and Washington Gas
Light companies.
While it had been announced
previously that the hearings would
be conducted at that time, today's
announcement was the first Off.
cial statement The hearing will
begin at 10 a. m.
The Public Utilities Commission
at its meeting yesterday turned
over to Peoples Counsel Richmond
B. Keech the proposed schedule
Of rates recently filed by the
Washington Gas Light Co. for
study in preparation for the hear
ing.
Under the proposed schedule
the small consumer of gas would
pay more than at present, while
the average and large consumers
would pay less. The breaking
point" in the new rates is 1900
cubic feet. Consumers using less
than that amount would be
charged more than they now pay
and those using more would have
smaller bills. The average con-
sumption per family is said to be
about 3,400 cubic feet.
Keech pointed out thot the
original schedule filed by the gas
company contained a pro.4-,.4
for a fixed charge, for each class
of service, regardless of the
amount used. The present sched-
ule provides for a minimum rate,
which is preferable, the peoples
counsel said.

A bootlegger who believed the
law was too close for comfort,
turned loose a smoke screen
last night as he was speeding
past the carnival at st. Ga
briefs Church on Grant Circle

acrid black smoke settled sdown
over the church many persons
became alarmed and several
men ran into. the paroehial
school and dragged out a fire

One man, however, who had
noticed the automobile speed

to a platform and announced
that it was just a bootlegger

| LIEUTENANCY
SOUGHT FOR
BARGAGN|
Possibility of Advancing Him
on List Declared Remote
BY Chief George Watson

Business and civic leaders of
the Capital are deluging the Dis
trict. Commissioners with letters
recommending the promotion y OF
Sergt. A. j. Bargagni to a lieu
tenancy in the Fire Department,
as q fitting recognition for his
efforts in staging the annual
Firemen's Labor Day parades.
The move was originated by
Isaac Cans, long a leader in
business and civic circles. "A
number of other local personages
have rallied to support of thc
move and addressed letters to
the Commissioners. Among the
latest to send letters to the city
heads are DR.. Emmett j. Muir.
ply, chiropractor, and John B.
GineheSi, contractor.
Fire Chief George S. Watson
today stated that there appeared
slim chance for the. hopes of the
Bargagni supporters to be real,
lied. This was because of the
Civil Service rating of men for
promotion. Watson said:
81 am favorable to the move
and I'm all for Sergt. Bar
gagni. He has done a great
service not only for the city
but for the Fire Department.
He has taken the examination
for promotion to ieutenancy,
but In a good way down ON the
list Of eligibIes and I doubt
very much whether he will be
reached this year."
Chief Watson explained that
only in case of a man doing
q valiant service in fire fight.
ing would the Civil Service com.
mission entertain a proposition
Of jumping" an eligible above
others Sn the eligible list.

DISTRICT PLANS
To CHECK ALL
MOTORS
Thorough inspection and OK.
to Be Required of Owners;
Accident Decrease Is Aim

Compulsory inspection of the
mechanical condition of motor
vehicles as a requirement for Sc
curing license plates is seen as
practically a certainty in the
District by 1892.
The recommendation for such
inspection probably will be laid
before the traffic advisory COM
mittee. recently appointed by the
District Commissioners. when that
body meets shortly after october
l to consider the recommends
tions of nine subcommittee in
regard to the traffic laws.
Thorough Car Check
Under the proposed system
motorists will be required, 80
days before registration. to take
their machines to an authorized
service station for inspection. If
the automobile is found in good
condition a certificate will be
issued free Of charge.
If, however, the machine Is
mechanically imperfect, it must
be repaired. A certificate show
ing that the car is in good con-
dition, together with a receipt for
personal taxes on the car. must
be shown before license plates
can be obtained. Motorists whose
machines fail to pass inspection
will be given 80 days in which to
remedy defects.
Several Eastern States have tho
proposed system in operation now.
Among those who have success
fully tried the inspection plan are
Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware
and Massachusetts,. The traffic
regulations here provide for very
limited police control over the me-
chanical condition Of automobiles,
bat this applies principally to
lights and brakes, while the new
rule will take in tho entire, car.
Public Is Guarded
Every. effort. will be made to
guard the public against unquali-
fled and unscrupulous shop opera
tors by setting high standards for
inspection stations.
The new law will not go into ef-
feet this year, it is almost certain,
since the committee will not meet
unil after october /, and the
9O-day period for repairs allowed
under the proposal would run be-
yond the first of the year.

made . satisfactory inventory and
made . prediction.
"We,re not worried much," he ex-
planned. "The boys are playing

themselves, we have the fighting
spirit that makes champions, and ]
think we'll get started right now so
