Three Citizen Groups
Ask Reconsideration
OF Gas RATE Case
Duplicated Copies Of
Claims Filed With PUG:
4th Unit to Join Move

Petitions for reconsideration of its
orders IN the Washington Gas Light
Co. rate case-already facing a court
contest by the OPA-were filed with
the Public Utilities Commission late
yesterday by three citizens associa-
tions. A fourth organization plans
to present similar protests tomorrow.
Getting the Jump on the OPA
utilities counsel, Harry r. Booth,
who has not yet filed the petition
for reconsideration he advised the
commission Is coming, the Trinidad,
Hillcrest and Anacostia Citizens As
sociations filed pleas that the $780,
600 rate boost be rescinded and a
new hearing called ION all elements
Of fact and law entering into rate
making"
The Fort Davis Association will
f1le its petition tomorrow, the PUG
was told. The petitions for the
Trinidad and Hillcrest groups we're
presented to the commission by
Mrs. Mabel Morris of the Fort Davis
body, who has carried the issue to
q number of associations.
Mimeograph Forms Used.
The three petitions were identical
as to content and had been mimeo-
graphed, with space left for the
names Of the associations to be
written In, officials noted at the Dis
trict Building. Also, it was observed
that the arguments presented were
identical with language used by
Gregory Hankin, PUG member, in
his recent opinion dissenting from
the rulings made by Chairman
James H. Flanagan and Engineer
Commissioner Charles w. Kutz.
Mr.. Hankin had arranged for
copies of his dissenting opinion, it
was recalled. It was said also that
Mr.. Hankin had planned to take
copies of this dissent to st. Louis,
Mo, where he and Chairman Flana-
gan are attending the convention
OF the National Association of Rail-
road and Utilities Commissioners.
The petitions charge the PUG ma
tority with prejudice" and a long
list OF alleged errors in handling
the rate case and in treatment of
the OPA as an interviewer.
Claim OPA Hampered.
Using Mr.. Hankin's language in
the dissenting opinion, the groups
declared, in part, that the PUG
"hampered" the OPA:
by permitting counsel for the
company to dominate the proceed
ing and constantly to annoy and
interfere with counsel for the in
tervener.
by permitting officers of the
company to sneer and jeer at spokes-
men for the various citizens asso-
Citations, and even at one of the
commissioners who sought to de-
velop the facts of the case.
by exhibiting such bias and pre-
tudice to any view other than that
favored by the company as to ques-
ton whether information furnished
by the commissions chief account
ant to one of the commissioners
CMr. Hankin) was furnished by him
In his capacity as an accountant"
The petitions also include Mr..
Hankin's arguments on many is
sues in the case which were argued
in detail during the hearings and
IN the rate order, the majority and
dissenting opinions and in state
ments by OPA spokesmen.
Commission representatives said
the petitions would be considered
by the PUG members, probably next
week, after Mr.. Flanagan and Mr..
Hankin return from the st. Louis
convention.

Evacuation Ends Life
Of Japanese Newspaper
BY DAMON RUNYON

TOGO TANAKA, the 26-year-
- old editor Of the Japanese
Daily News, who was the subject
of this column yesterday, took
me through the plant that as Of
a few days ago was about the
last scene of business activity in
little Toxic"
The News has So employees
who, like Tanaka, must go to
evacuee camps. The paper has
been published in Los Angeles
for 80 years, and some of the
employees have been with it all
that time. The News is now the
last of three Japanese papers
that were published in Los
Angeles.
There used to be two in San
Francisco and three in Seattle.
Tanaka was not sure what has
happened to them, but thought
they had folded. The News, at
its peak had circulation of
10000 but is now down to about
1000. 1t ran II pages daily in
its good days with a 20-page tab
on Sunday. The daily is now
down to six pages, eight columns
wide.
TNHE English section carries
i cartoons and other features
bought from syndicates and has
some of the same departments
found in all American papers
movies. sports, and the like. 1t
publishes war news in bulletin
form Tanaka said he presumes
the Japanese section is closely
scrutinized by the FBI.
The plant includes a linotype
for the English section. but all
the type for the japanese section
is hand set. The News has a
large amount of japanese type
made in Japan and not available
in this country, and Tanaka told
me he thought the government
should take cogniZance of the
value Of this type in publishing
notices to the Japanese.
There are upwards of $500
different characters in the Japa-
nese language as against a
couple of dozen in the English
language and the fonts of Japa-
ncse type take up considerable
room in the plant.
A big Goss press, a large job
press and a stereotyping plant
make up the rest of the News
outfit, which is all on one floor
except for a sort of loft which
houseS the japanese editorial
department.
TANAKA said he speaks Japa-
i nese but does not write il
any too well. He said this is
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-04-15

low alive is Detroit the actualities of this World
/ War?
How alert are we TO its dreadful potentialities2
How aware are we of the sinister probability that
Detroit soon may be bombed almost London
bombed? A..,N\ N..N. .l...| ,.l
These are questions that can't be laughed off because
in this total enemies not stupid enemies
They are treacherous and artful and very smart
enemies. They know-better than you dream-that De-
tro is the most important production center of the
United Nations
TaSoy know that if Detroit production develops
unhndered they ultimately lose the
Detroit therefore should be the most war-eonseous
city in the world But is it?
7 LSTEN TO this curt comment of Edward A. Roberts
l. associate director of the Federal Office of Defense

portaton problems He charged bunty that Detroiters
yet appreciate the fact that personal indi-
vidual, sacrifice is essential to winning the He
said
1T estimated that 20 per cent of the workers here
still going to and from in their private autos
They riding i'm ordly excusveness a car"
That's bad Indictment. 1t applies not only to fac
tory workers but TO office workers and executives and
merchants and bankers and all of u.s.
I low many groups, how many neighborhoods, have
made any effort to pool necessary transportation?
Few, if any.
Rubber is essential to the American military forces
We're short of it. But Detroiters dissipate it
blithely as though the supply amending.
Hadn't better awaken to what's ahead of us?
Hadn't we better look, ceareyed and straight ahead to
the fact that in for year two of the worst
experience we've ever had?
Hadn't we better right now conserve our motor
and their precious tires?
Shouldn't workers start using buses street
to and from daily work? Or pool our automobiles
for neighborhood group transportation?
Unless we do these things will be useless
their tires wear out
And we shall be just that much more hapless in the
event of air raids with private automobiles bitterly needed
by the OCD for first aid and emergency transportation
