Our contracts with the booking

for the films ordinarily run longer

UTILITY RATES
ACTION LIKELY
Rehearing of City Appeal Is
Indicated.

Rehearing of the city's demand
for a rate cut by the indianapolis
Power and Light Company prob
ably will be granted by the public
service commission.
This appeared likely today when
Harry K. Cuthbertson, commits
Sioner, said he would confer. with
other commissioners Saturday, sug-
costing March 9 as the tentative
date for reopening the case.
His statement was made after
filing of the rehearing petition by
the city Thursday.
The city's petition set out that
dismissal of the original rate re-
duction request, nearly two weeks
ago, was illegal, void and prema-
ture."
The city pointed to figures of the
light company, set out in a sales
prospectus, that a gain had been
made in net revenue in the last
few months, rather than a decrease,
as stated in the utility's figures to
the commissioner.
Clifford Harrod, head of the
power firm, comforting with Mayor
Reginald H. Sullivan, following fill
ing of the city petition, is said to
have offered an explanation for the
discrepancy in the figures.
Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men has joined the list of groups
demanding reduction in rates for

phones.

Vehling faces two to fourteen
years imprisonment and a fine up

URGE Closer Co. Cooperation

Tinted Press staff CORRESPONDENT


LONDON, Feb. 26.-PreSs and po-
litical forces moved today toward
effecting closer cooperation be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States as a result of Secretary of
State Stimson's letter to Senator
Borah, setting forth the American
policy in the far east.
Editorial broadsides from such
liberal newspapers as the London
News-C Chronicle and the Manches-
ter Guardian were supplemented by
the ~utterances of Labor party lead
ers in calling on the national gov
eminent for action.
Upon the course of the govern
ment in joining hands with the
United States in the Sino-Japanese
crisis, it was argued by these ele-
ments, might determine for years
the warmth or GOODNESS of Anglo
American relations.
The foreign office declined to
comment for tie moment and pos
Sibly will maintain its ~reticence I'M
til the house of commons meets
Monday, wher the Stimson letter
most certainly will be tossed into
the hopper of far east discussion.

Japan States Policy

By united Press
TOXIC, Feb. 26.-Japan believes
signatories to the nine-power treaty
may better assist China by discour-
aging Chinese war lords and en-
couraging merchants, it was re-
vealed today in further comment on
Secretary Stimson's letter and the
recent note from the League of Ma
tons.
It was pointed out that Japan's
official version Of this viewpoint
was contained in the Japanese re-
ply to the league note asking Ja-
pan to end hostilities at Shanghai.
According to the japanese inter-
probation, the nine-power signato-
ries hoped that non-interference
would help China attain unity and
establish the sovereignty and adj
m~inistrative integrity of her terri
tory.
Secretary Stimson's letter indi-
Gated that America was willing to
continue such a policy, but Japan
believes that China's failure to
make progress toward unity in the
decade after the Washington con-
ference proved that the policy Of
non-interference was not helpful.
