The Meaning Of the Cross

No event in human history has been
as variously interpreted as the death of
Jesus Christ. And yet there is no reason
for these various interpretations"
The Bibles statements on the death of
Christ do not need interpreting as much
as they need reading. A mosaic of Bible
quotes will suffice to illustrate:
"Christ died for our sins."-"Who
His own self bore our sins in His own
body on the cross."-"God commendeth
His love toward us in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us"
"Christ suffered for our sins, the Just
for the unjust."-"Christ died for the
ungodly."-"Christ hath redeemed us

Increase in Gas Rates
For D. C., Maryland
Suspended by FPC

The Federal Power Commission
yesterday suspended rate increases
which the Atlantic Seaboard and
Virginia Gas Transmission Corps.
had planned. affecting the Wash
ington and Maryland Gas Light
Cos.
All the increases proposed
would have amounted to about
$349,780 annually, based on an
ticipated sales for the 12-month
period ending April 80, 1851, for
several wholesale customers.
The commission at the same
time permitted the two corpora
tions to reduce their rates to sew
eral other customers May /.
Other Changes Provided.
The rate schedules suspended,
pending a hearing and decision,
applied an annual increase Of
$348,066 to the Washington Gas
Light Co., and $477 to the Mary
land Counties Gas Co. and Wash
ington Gas Light Co. of Maryland.
Besides the rate changes, the
tariffs also provide for changes in
classification and services, includ-
ing a proposal to prohibit the use
of gas for boiler fuel where the
ultimate consumer, including a
distributor, takes more than 500,-
900 cubic feet a day. Sole excep-
ton was a rate schedule applicable
to gas sold by Atlantic for resale
to LukenS Steel Corp.
In addition the corporations
plan a uniform heat content
guarantee of 1000 British thermal
units per cubic foot, whereas gas
delivered to Washington Gas
Light has a heating value of about
1,100 btu per cubic foot.
Additional Costs Seen.
The FPC said this potential
change may result in additional
cost increases to Washington Gas
Light.
Both Washington Gas Light
and Washington Gas Light Co.
of Maryland filed protests against
the proposed changes.
The District Public Utilities
Commission said the Atlantic Sea-
board tariff "is a matter of grave
concern to this commission be-
cause, among other things, of the
probable effect of such tariff upon
the rates to consumers of natural
gas within the District of Co.
