MINTON URGES
HONEST DOLLAR
IN RATE VALUES
Regulatory Boards Duty Is
to Find 1t, Franklin
KiWanis Told.

Sherman Minton, public counselor
of the public service commission,
told the Kiwanis Club of Franklin
Tuesday that the chief task now
confronting regulatory bodies is
that Of finding honest dollars in
vested in utility property.
without knowledge of honest
dollars invested in useful utility
property" said Mr.. Minton, the
finding of the fair value of a utility
becomes a contest Of fairy tale
telling by expert witnesses"
Mr.. Minton described in detail
the new program in Indiana of
forcing the utility to appear before
the public service commission to
show cause why rates should not
be reduced.
Always Ready to Act
"When it is possible to tell from
an analysis Of records the utilities
have on file with the commission
that revenues, collected from the
public are too high" Mr.. Minton
continued, then I have had no
hesitancy in bringing action for the
quick relief Of ratepayers.
Success of the show cause
method has been demonstrated in
the indianapolis Power and Light
Company case, where $525 900 of i'm
mediate rate reductions ere gained
without expense to any consumer,
pending Investigations and a final
determination of proceedings to OBJ
tain higher cuts"
Shortly before, the commission
had aired conditions in the Public
Service Company Of Indiana by the
same method. The indianapolis
company pleaded guilty to making
excessive charges and acted prompt
ly to avoid the kind of an airing
the Public Service Company re-
ceived.
Think Recent Franchise Right
'Why shouldn't public utilities be
forced to tell the truth about all
their earnings, operations, holding
company connections and corporate
AFFAIRS affecting rates? 1t is the
spirit of public regulations that they
shall keep nothing hidden from the
public, yet it has been their privilege
to deceive for so long that they be-
ileve it a part of their franchise
right"

We've also learned that, in

AS to the colors and types

About Hats

PARASITIC smart gather
ings of the season always offer
a large display of the big cape
line hats or big canotiers, which
are usually preferred to accom-
pany long dresses in light Or
ganza or in summery prints.
However, other types Of hats
which are not only smart but
very interesting, inasmuch as
they mark the tendency for
next winter, have made their
appearance, that is, felt hats Of
moderate size with comic or ir-
regular high crowns, such as our
leading milliners foresee for
next winter.
Tonkinese hats with their
pointed tops are very much in
evidence, as well as little mar
quiS and an enormous quantity
Of novel berets, very large and
draped, in order to fall on one
side in a sort of brim effect.
Some Of these berets are treated
in a sort of plateau effect, some
are inspired by a mans cap with
a long visor, and others have a
conical crown and emphasized
point that relate them to the

Seen at the Grand
Prix D'EIegance

PARASITIC big week Of the
Paris season with all it's smart
galas and festivals has con-
firned the triumph Of long
dresses for smart afternoon
wear. Both at race meetings and
the fashionable society gather
ings, women have adopted long
skirts, that is not only to the
ankle but to the ground. At
the Grand Prix d'Elegance Of
1894, held in the Grand Palais,
the first prize was won by a
well-known leading actress,
MademoiSelle Arielle. who wore
a white ensemble designed by
Edmond Courtot. This dress
was in filmy white chiffon &C
companied by a white aigrette
cape.
Printed materials had less
place in this gathering. Besides
chiffon dresses, rayon organza
and starched organdie, among
which was a very smart model
in rayon organZa from Lanvin,
lavishly trimmed with flowers
in sef-material, the majority of
smart dresses were in dull crepe
or in rayon velvets. Particularly
admired was a Dupuy-Magnin
model, q black rayon panne
velvet trimmed with white
panne. White had an impor'
tant place in this festival, espe-
cially in dull white crepe and

This model is as obviously de-

was designed for Adam. It is

Concours D'EIegance
En- Automobile

PARIS-A very smart con-
test was recently held in the
Boise de Boulogne, in the
charming background Of Baga-
telle among some of our lead
ing actresses, to combine femi-
nine and automobile elegance.
All the competitors were dressed
in color or color schemes
matching harmoniously the.
color of their motor cars. Clay
tones enhanced with vivid con-
trasting colors were very much
in evidence.
A symphony in grayish and
yellowish greens on a RenauAt
car, with matching dress worn
by Marcelle Chantal, won the
first prize. Another symphony
in plum and purple, with
matching tones on car ana
dress, was displayed by Nadine
Picard. The dress was in duA
acetate jersey from Colcomoet'
with trimmings in bright e1-
feet, Another ensemble worn
BY Mrs. Scott was in pale blue
and dark blue rayon clocky
crepe. It matched q very
smart car in the same tones.
Alice Cocoa, to match her
very smart roadster in black
and red, wore an Agnes
Drecou ensemble in black rayon
clocky with a short cape IN

AGNES marquis hat with vivid
red doeskin on a black straw

very noticeable.

At Ocean City, Md. (where
, we spent a few days last
week., we heard numerous
complaints against the in
adequacy of the costume
adopted by various anglers.
Bathing trunks, it was ex-
planned, leave the fishermen
too much at the mercy of
the sun and the only al
tentative, old trousers and
shirts, are too clumsy.
The latter costume was
adopted, we noted, by that
, well known Baltimore Beau
Brummel, Fred Wehr.
: Fred was q picture not
soon forgotten in a pair of
much worn white ducks, a
once-white shirt and a de-
lGpidated straw hat. To COM
plete the effect the leather
socket he used to balance
his surf casting pole "came
off" on both shirt and
trousers. He was out from 5
o'clock in the morning un-
til 8 at night. No break
fast, lunch or dinner. Which
only goes to prove that when
q man likes to fish he puts
it above everything else.
