ALLIES ORDER ~ ¢ORT LEVELED ‘Attempt by Germans to Contrai Canal Is Seen by Experts in Fire Control and Range Finding School PARIS, July 26.—.(By The Associated Press.) —-The coun- cil of ambassadors today decided to send a sharp note to the German government demanding the immediate destruction of the fire control and range finding school, which the Ger- man naval authorities have quietly established at a strategic point on the Kiel canal. Allied expert opinion has declared the school convertible into a fort com manding the entrance to the canal. Allied controi officers who reported the school to the council, termed it the most flagrant cf the long series of violations of the naval terms of the treaty of Versailles on the par of Ger- many. Experts reported these violations to have extended over a period of two months and strongly urged action by the council. Among other - cherges made against Germany was that of at. tempting enlistments for the German navy far beyond the quota allowed by the treaty. Failure of the Gérmans to destroy the coast detense guns was also among the complaints. ——_—— Negress Passes 118th Birthday LOS ANGELES, July 26.—Anna Melvina Prater, negress, who has just passed what is sald to be ber 118th birthday anniversary, declared at the Los Angeles county farm, where she is an inmate that she at- tributed her long life to hard work and plain food.

A few days before he moves in he rings up the electric lights, gas and telephone company and is connected with these various household utili- ties on a moment's notice. Little does the average person realize the millions of dollars that have been invested and the years of time required in developing these great organizations which await only his order to start service. If the builder had had to put in a private lighting plant, a private gas plant and a private telephone system the cost would have been much more than the cost of his house and then he would not have really had service. The month- ly cost of running his private plants would have been much more than the monthly bills of the organization already at his command. In considering rates of public utilities the average user overlooks the fact that being ready to serve costs money and that the value of this potential service must be covered by the rates. The fact that a man does »%9t usé his gas, elec- tricity or telephone after it is installed, does not lessen the obligation or expense of the company in having service there if he chooses to push the button. Gradually the public is beginning to under- stand the obligations of a company that is ready to serve and also it is beginning to understand the enormous expenditures of money and time that are necessary in order to be ready when the service is wanted.
