SELLING TO FARMERS

Business of the country spend $50 million dol lars year for advertising to reach city dwelers but only 30 million is reaching the smaller, rural comun- ites.
 Samuel R. McKelvie of the Federal Farm Board states that this dsaproporon in advertising efforts was all the more striking when it is considered the smaller communities of the country have normal purchasing power of ten billion dollars annually.
 He might have gone further by stating that no class of prospective customers responsive to honest advertising than people residing in the rural districts.
 They read newspapers more thoroughly.

ASKED BY PEPCO
Electric Company Anxious to
Get Decision by End
of Year.

Early trial Of the legal fight of the
Potomac Electric Power Co. against the
move Of the Public Utilities Commission
for establishing new system Of electric
rates was sought in petition filed to-
day by the power company in Equity
Court.
s. r. Bowen, counsel for the power
company, filed . motion seeking to ad-
vance the time Of the equity hearing,
pointing out rates are to be promul-
gated January / for the next year but
this cannot be done without a ruling
by court on the present litigation.
Have Five Days to Reply.
Corporation Counsel w. w. Bride, w.
A. Roberts, counsel to the Public Utili-
ties Commission, and Richard B. Keech,
peoples counsel before the commits
sion, are notified Of the five days in
which they have to reply to service of
| this motion.
The Utilities Commission has until
| December Is to answer the suit brought
by the power company against a change
| in the system Of setting up rates of the
company and normally trial of the case
would be held in January, it Is point
ed out.
Because Of the necessity of placing
| the 1882 rates in effect January l, the
power company has moved for action
designed to settle the case before the
end of this year.
the consent decree of 1924, under
| which by agreement of the Utilities
Commission and the power company,
rates were to be adjusted from year to
year If the return Of the con1pbny went
beyond III per cent on the valuation Of
So, 100000 plus actual cost of future
additions tIndepreciated but weighted
during q period Of any one year. One
half Of the excess return was to be
used in u reduction Of rates charged
the public.
Rates Reduced Each Year.
Rates Of the company have been re-
duced each year since the system was
established, bringing the primary rates
down from 10 cents per kilowatt hour
to AZ cents, as at present.
Because the Utilities Commission
found that despite this system the re-
turn Of the company each year has
been In excess Of 10 per cent, it moved
last year 70 SuuSt4Gute new system Oh
ratemaking, also based on a sliding
scale.
The power company took the case to
court with O plea for restraining or
der. The commission answered with a
motion to dismiss the case and this was
overruled, but at the same time the
court held that the consent decree was
not binding ON the commission.
This prepared the case for trial on
It's merits, after the commission has
made its formal answer to the objec-
tons Of the power company against the
new sliding scale rate system.

 WILL BE
 CREATED
Believed Pope Plus Xl Will Raise Monsignor Pietr0 Fumasoni=Bi =Biondi, Apos= tolic Delegate, to Rank in December
BY THOMAS B. MORGAN

Vatican City, October g - (Uo - Pope Plus XI will hold a con- sistory in the first half of Decem- Der and, according to authoritative sources at the Vatican palaces, Monsignor Pietro Fumasoni-Biondi, apostolic delegate to the United States, will be made a cardinal.
 The Sacred College of Cardinals Is now reduced to but 55 members, owing to deaths during the past two years and to the fact that the pontiff has not created any new cardinals during 1881. Of these 55 members. 26 are Italians and 29 are foreigners. There is generally a majority of Italians. I There are TO places available in the rSacIed College so that the Pope will likely create number of new cardinals in the coming consistory.
 The demand of other countries will make 1t imperative to give them places now occupied by 1tal- ian cardinals. That is to say, the number of Italian red hats will tend to decrease while the num- Der of foreign cardinals will tend to increase.
 Tn the first place another cardi- nal is insistently demanded by many of the bishops of the United States. Most nations have a car dinal, who Is resident in Rome ana is a member of the Roman Curia and hence in a position to adVlse the pontiff on matters which af- feet his church at home.
 Besides, there is only one cardi- nal in the whole of South America and he Is the Archbishop of RIO De Janiero. For this reason. Ar gentina has consistently appealed to the Pope to nominate an Argentine cardinal, who would be the Arch bishop of Buenos Aires. Chile mas made the same appeal for cardinal. itiaI rank for the Archbishop of Santiago. Other such petitions come from Australia, from South Africa and from India, China ana
