GAS RATE STUDY
URGEDBY CITIZENS
BurIeith Association Re-
fuses to Request Imme-
diate Reductions.

Refusing to follow the lead OF the
Takoma Park Citizens Association in
demanding an immediate reduction
in the gas rates in the District, the
Burleith Citizens Association last
night adopted a resolution by its Pub
Lie Utilities Committee that the Pub
lie Utilities Commission give careful
consideration to the data now on hand
before making any decision.
The resolution requested that the
ga per cent temporary reduction be
made permanent; that further reduc-
tionS be made when circumstances per-
nit; that study be made of the posi-
bility of the use of natural gas entirely;
that the merger of the Washington
and Georgetown Gas Light Cos.
be considered as a possible savings
in operation, and that a comparison
of local rates be made with those in
other cities.
Favor Zone Taxicabs.
IN a discussion of the subject 1t
was declared that both the electric
and gas rates here compare favorably
with many cities and are considerably
lower than in great number of others.
The Public Utilities Committee was
authorized to act for the association
in consideration of the Blanton rider
to the District appropriation bill,
which would prohibit the use OF any
funds for the installation OF meters
on taxicabS. Hope was expressed that
if the zone system is continued the
lines in the third zone be extended
to take in Burleith.
A resolution requesting the construc-
ton Of sidewalks on r street between
Thirty-sixth and Thirty-seventh
streets and on Thirty-seventh

Sidewalks and the Legal Committees
to see whether property owners can
be forced to construct retaining walls.
Urge Night School.
Another resolution adopted was that
q night school be established at West
ern High School.
Resolutions tabled included the
tentative new city form Of government
submitted by the Federation Of Citi-
zens' Associations, and the resolution
OF the Kenilworth Citizens Association
for the establishment of municipal
airport on the old Benning race track.

administration and its policies were
condemned late yesterday before the
League Of Republican Women Of the
District of Columbia by william s.

bassador to Chile, who declared it
time to exercise restraints embodied
in our Constitution"
Speaking in the Maynower Hotel,
Mr.. Culbertson said the State elec-
tions today and the presidential elec-
tiors next year offer voters IAN op-
portunity to vote for representative
institutions and private enterprise" as
well as an opportunity to vote against
a tendency toward dictatorship and
highly centralized Government, in
solvency and system which today Is
tending toward socialism"
Criticizes Spending.
Culbertson criticized the admins
trations spending of huge sums of
money and asserted the policy Of
soaking the rich eventually will
mean also soaking the poor. Even
persons who do not pay any income
tax, he said, eventually will be bur-
dened by the payment Of direct and
indirect taxes.
Il am not objecting to just and
fair measures Of relief and social
security. They are proper and often
necessary under the complex organi-
Zation Of modern society,"" said the
speaker and added:
Il am condemning our vast schemes
for making work; I am condemning
the development of State enterprises
in competition with private enter
prises; I am condemping the granting
Of bounties for not producing at a
time when thousands in our society
are hungry and living in poverty; I
am condemning the use Of your
money and mine to create a social
and economic order after the theories
Of some bureaucrats who are now
temporarily in Washington"
Sees Imitation Peril.
"The American Government is i'm
posing an enormous mortgage on the
people," he continued.
