V|RC|N|ANS STRESS
UTILITY RATE CUTS
Two of Three Gubernatorial
Candidates Promise
Early Action.
By STAFF Correspondent of The Star

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE, Va,
May 27.-The most significant develop
ment in the gubernatorial race in Vlr-
ginia, in so far as Arlington County is
concerned, is believed by the Public
Utilities Committee of the Arlington
County Civic Federation to be the
declaration of two of the three Demo-
cratic candidates that the utility rates
are much too high and must be imme-
diately lowered.
Coming in the middle Of a campaign
for lower electric and power rates and
following the prosecution Of a case be-
fore the State Corporation Commis-
sion for much lower gas rates, the COM
mittee sees in the stand OF the two
candidates something to give 1t courage
to continue its campaign with almost
definite assurance that help will be
forthcoming from some quarter.
Interest at High Mark.
The utility rate situation also is seen
as having considerable bearing upon the
vote in Arlington County for the vari-
GUS candidates for Governor, since the
campaign is being conducted when in
terest in the rate situation is higher
here than at any time during the past.
George C. Perry, administration can
didate and former chairman OF the
State Corporation Commission, is the
one candidate who has not come out
fatty for lower public utility rates, al
though a plank in his platform advo-
Gates the passage of legislation giving
the Corporation Commission the right
to make temporary reductions in cases
of emergency, SO this, too, is taken as
some encouragement that present con-
ditions might be bettered in event OF
his election.
w. Worth Smith, jr., and Joseph T.
Deal have firmly declared themselves for
lower rates. Deal in speech here last
Wednesday declaring that if he is elected
Governor and the Corporation Commits
sion refuses to listen to the "cry Of the
people" for relief he will ask the reSig-
nation of the members and if they re-
fuse tosresign he will feel justified In
calling a special session of the General
Assembly to oust them.
Pepco Service Sought.
These developments, the committee
states, have spurred their efforts to OBJ
tain a large number of signatures tC
petitions urging the Potomac Electric
Power Co. to extend its service through
out the county, since they have removed
any fear that after the company did eX-
tend its service it might apply for ano
be granted higher rates.

Women's organizations divided sharp
ly yesterday before Senate Judiciary

ans Party, and several other witnesses
Miss Younger contended such action
was more than ever imperative now"

women workers and legislation fixing
their hours and pay that did not apply
to men.
Mary Winslow, for the National

pearing as representative of several or

vague, unnecessary. ineffective de-
structive. reckless Of consequence and
