new BILL ORDERS
CUT IN GAS RATE
Mandatory Drop Feature of
Measure introduced
by Howell.

Following up his contention that the
people should know definitely what
benefits they will receive from a merger
of the Washington and Georgetown Gas

Senator Howell, Republican, of Nebraska
late yesterday introduced substitute
bill containing mandatory rate reduc-

leaving out some of the rights the COM
pany would have obtained under the
original bill.
Senator Howell believes his rate
schedule more advantageous to the pub-
Tic than the one filed with the Utilities
commission by the company two DAYS
ago, because he drops the fixed service
charge OF go cents month on all meters
ana substitutes q 60-cent minimum
charge. The Senator added another pro-
vision tnat II the heating units of the
gas go down below a certain point the

company, namely IS cents per thousand

ABOVE that amount. The present price
Is u per thousand for all gas under

o1I is not paid within the discount
PERIOD the new rates would be 95 and 85

minimum fee. Under this plan. IL less

While Washington still thrilled
from his return from the South
Pole, Rear Admiral Richard Evelyn
Byrd today disclosed his intention
of returning to Antarctica for fur
ther exploration, when details of
the present expedition are settled
up.
There's a lot of digging to do
down there yet" Admiral Byrd
told newspaper men in his suite
at the Willard Hotel, just after
his triumphant arrival here by
special train.
Does that mean you are going
back?" the bronzed aerial adven-
turer was asked.
well, I won't have time to
think about that until I get some
of the matters connected with this
expedition cleared upp he replied
with smile.
Then, aside, to the group around
him he added:
"You know, fellows, this bust
ness is bug, and once you get it
you don't get over it. But I am
not going to make any plans about
going back until I get things
Strengthened up from my last
trip.
But people are going to be fly
ing down there and landing be-
fore long, and there are going to
be permanent weather stations
there, or I'm very much mistaken"
Vast Reaches to Be Explored.
Admiral Byrd declared there are vast
reaches of land in Antarctica yet to be
explored.
He asserted his claims to "aN the
land lying east of the 150th meridian,
as far as the South American sector

existed in Government circles as to the

been claimed by other nations.
Admiral Byrd summarized what he
thought were the chief accomplish

believed the studies made by the ex-

PARIS, June 20.-The Italian foreign
minister today expressed his country's

ton of students at Bari when, it was
alleged, France was belittled by the

The incident Is now regarded by the
French foreign office as closed, 1t was
said in offlcial circles today.
The alleged affront to France occurred
before the French consular agency at
Bari
At the request of the French AM
basSador to Rome the Italian foreign
office investigated the affair thoroughly.
First reports that a French flag had
been burned in front of the agency
proved unfounded.
Minister Grandi told the French Am
bassador that the manifestation was
simply an act of braggadocio on the
part Of the students who made an eff
fervescent demonstration, for which the
government was sorry.

TARIFF FOES PRESS
PARIS FOR PROTEST
French Government Hoping
Revision of Rates by Hoo
yer Will End Agitation.
BY the Associated Press.

Dy inc ASSoClhteu FIcSS'
PARIS, June 20.-The more elevated
tone of criticisms of the new American
tariff today raised the question of
whether agitation in parliamentary and
political circ1s was likely to force the
hand of the government and oblige 1t
to make some form of representations to
Washington.
The tariff committee Of the Senate
which asked the minister of commerce
for information on the subject, was
told that the government was disposed
to make representations concerning any
cases which might turn out to be
abusive and endeavor to induce Presi-
dent Hoover to use his discretionary
power"
That is as, far as the government
would be able to go, it was said in Of
fetal circles, since the new tariff is the
result of legislation and can be changed
only by the Congress of the United
States.
Hope Placed in Hoover.
Strong hope was expressed, however,
that President Hoover could be induced
to make generous use of his discretion
airy powers to reduce duties which turn
out to be too high, without going
through the process 0! technical investi-
cations which might take a year or
more before they could possibly yield
benefits to French industry.
The estimate of the American en-
baSsy that the new rates would add
an average of only 3.35 per cent to
French export duties to America was
accepted by neither manufacturers nor
officials.
Minister of Commerce Flandin was
quoted as saying that no calculation
based upon averages could give an sx-
act idea of the consequences of the new
rates to French trade.
The ministry of commerce today ar
ranged for a careful detailed examina-
ton of all of the new schedules. The
public will be informed of their ex-
pected effect on French trade.
Active Protest Wanted.
In the meantime the parliamentary
group, evidently animated by a desire
to respond to the complaints of their
constituents, today continued actively
demanding some sort of action to
counterfeit the new rates.
Specific cases of apparently serious
consequences are being brought to the
attention of the Government. One
house making ladies' fine shoes for the
American trade declared that a 90 per
cent tariff would put his firm out OF
puSlleSS' ne olIeIeu IL loT SAFE Elk
porters of nuts today declared that the
increase in duties on their product is
$50 per cent.
Other agricultural interests have com
planned of increases of 100 per cent
The attitude of the Government today
seemed to be to give all possible com
fort to the affected interests, while
trying at the same ime to develop
patience on their part for the moment
when it can be seen what can be done
about the tariff.
