OFFICIALS
DISCUSS NEW RATE
Confer With Utilities Commits
sion on Proposed Domes-
tic Reduction.

Onhcials Of the Potomac Electric
Power 90. spent two hours this morn
ing in discussing the proposed 1891
electric rate with members of the Public
Utilities Commission.
The power company proposes to re-
duce the domestic rates from ~ to a.
cents per kilowatt hour and to make
numerous changes in the IL other
schedules.
After the conference Maj. Gen. Ma
SON M. Patrick, chairman of the COM
mission, said that the company's propo-
Sitions as to the other rates were in
very tentative form and that after dis
cuss1on the company agreed to bring
In another set of rates meeting certain
suggestions made by the commission.
Would Use Up Reduction Fund.
If the domestic rate is reduced tn 40
cents, 1t Is estimated this will use up
900, approximately, of the $780,
600 reduction fund. The remaining
$4,000 would be used for reduction of
the other schedules, which embrace the
various commercial uses as well as a
domestic schedule for uses other than
light.
AS to this last, Gen. Patrick said that
the company proposes to make a sub
stantial reduction in order to popular
lie the use Of electric ranges for cook
ing. The present rate for this service
Is At cents per kilowatt hour for
the first 10 hours and 2.5 cents per XII
lowatt hour for all thereafter.
Those who were present at the con-
ference this morning were Gen. Patrick
and Vice Chairman Harleigh H. Hart
man of the commission, Byars Nick
Bachman. the commissions account
ant; President William r. Ham, Vice
President s. r. Bowen Of the company
and A. G. Neal and H. A. Brooks of
the company's accounting staff.
Commission to Hear Motions.
The commission arranged to meet at
2 o'clock this afternoon to hear mo-
tions by Peoples Counsel Richmond B.
Keech and William NICK Clayton of
the Federation of Citizens Associations
attacking the present methods of set
ting the telectric rates, which will be
considered.
Mr.. Clayton wants the commission to
petition Equity Court to revise the de-
adjusted annually, so that "a instead
of ~ Of all excess profits above 712
per cent return on valuation shall be
used in the annual rate reduction.
Mr.. Keech is seeking to have the
commission take into account the fact
that after each rate reduction the com.
pany's business, and consequently its
profits, increase. If this were done, a
greater reduction in rates would be
made than Is possible under the present
Interpretation of the decree.

Wickersham Commissions
Report to Be Awaited,
Leaders Announce.
WOMAN VETS OPPOSE
LOCAL PROHIBITION BILL
Tydings, Mrs. Norton and Mrs.
Miller to Speak at Mass
Meeting Tomorrow.

Senate leaders have decided to defer
consideration of the Howell prohibition
enforcement bill for the District until
the Wickersham Law Enforcement
Commission makes its report, but they
have not sidetracked 1t for this entire
session, 1t was learned today.
The Republican Steering Committee,
which recommends the order of bust
ness, conferred with Senator Howell
yesterday regarding his measure. which
would supplement the national dry law
in Washington.
1t is understood those in charge of
arranging the Senate program felt it
would save time IL discussion of cues
tons relating to prohibition could be
concentrated rather than have. them
taken up at different times.
Awaits Wickersham Report.
Senator vandenberg, Republican, Of
Michigan, vice chairman of the Steering
Committee, said there was general dis
position to give the Howell bill a place
on the program after the Wickersham
report Is submitted.
The Howell bill was one of several
local measures reached on the unani-
mous-consent call of the Senate calen-
dar yesterday, but went over for later
consideration on objection.
The Howell bill would extend pro-
hibition enforcement authority to all
members of the District police force
and would broaden the search warrant
provisions Of existing law.
Women Oppose Bill.
The woman vets of Washington will
oppose the bill, Miss Bell Gurnee,
chairman of the District council of the
Womens Organization for Prohibition
Reform, announced today.
Senator Willard E. Tydings Of Mary
land, Representative Mary T. Norton
of New Jersey and Mrs. Carroll Miller,
Democratic National Committeewoman
from Pennsylvania, will speak at an
ti-prohibition mass meeting, spon-
sored by the woman's organization, to-
morrow evening in the Masonic Audi
forum.
THE Howell bill will increase law
lessness in the District" Miss Gurnee
said. THE District police have enough
to do as 1t Is. If all of them are COM
PEELED, in addition to their regular
duties, to act as prohibition enforce
ment agents, as the Howell bill pro-
vides, 1t will mean that the District
will suffer from greater prohibition
evils than now exist. It will mean also
that every private citizen of the Dis
trict will be under police espionage,
since they will be compelled to pry into
private affairs of citizens"
Miss Margaret Frazer is chairman Of
the committee In charge Of the rally.

Supreme Court.
Giannoni came to Washington on his
converted SubchaSer last Winter and
has been living on his boat in the
Washington Channel since that time.
His visit to the Capital was made for
the purpose of filing a complaint with
Government officials against Coast
Guard officers who, he said, held him
at Moorhead City, N. c., on a charge
Of failing to register at the customs
house in that port. Giannoni declared
his clearance papers were held I'D for
IA months, during which his LIES say
ings of $4,000 were exhausted.
The Coast Guard detained Giannoni

employ a great many miners, and it
would require large expenditures of
money to properly equip the mining
operations, and would naturally ben
eft this community. There are num-
Der of other chrome deposits in Still
water and Sweet Grass counties, and
elsewhere in Montana that would be
developed. The chrome industry in
the United States has not been devel-
oped and will not be developed until
the protection afforded by substantial
tariff is placed on chrome ore. All of
the chrome now used in the great
steel manufacturing establishments is
now imported from Africa, with the
exception of a small quantity that
comes from Canada. So you will
readily see that it is imperative that
we have a Senator who will work for
a tariff on this valuable industry.
Another matter of local interest,
there isn't any tariff on crude oil.
We are now importing crude oil to the
value of One Hundred Million Dol
lars each year from abroad. Without
a tariff the production of crude oil
is drastically limited practically par
alyzing exploration, drilling and de-
velopment in this country. This ma
tural product of the soil appears to
be unlimited. New fields of great
magnitude have been found in the
past year, but the production has been
retarded and limited to such an ex-
tent that drilling and exploration of
newer fields has stopped. The Dry
Greek field and the Frannie field, if
developed, would mean much to our
people. Think what it would mean
to Montana if our oil fields were ac-
lively explored and developed. The
potential supply of oil seems to be un-
limited in the Montana fields, but
without tariff if will take years be-
fore we reap the benefits of this ma
turaI resource.
If Mr.. Shelley is chosen as Sena-
tor, he will vote for and work for a
tariff on chrome, crude oil, sugar, and
on all agricultural products.
