THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, THURSDAY, FEB. 24, 1916. SOCIAL CENTER consumption could not be doubled in a city of the population of Richmond. ; "If an attractive rate was ottered, a rate considerably lower ; than thai now operative in Richmond, I am positive the company would be provided, with the increased profits it seeks through an increase- in the volume of its business." the Columbus man stated., -lie expressed rthe ppinion that the. considerably increased rates the company has petitioned for would not only, beuri fair to gas users, but a detriment to the company. City officials also are confident that a gas rate increase will result in the company losing practically all its largest consumers, and a great number of. small consumers. "Within a short time we probably will go before the state commission and set,, forth the,, position we have taken that the company is pursuing the wrong course in seeking rate increases,'; and that its operating expenses are excessive," ; President Bavig said.

The defenders have the advantage . of fortifications which have- been strengthened for 6 year and the French artillery is held to be equal to that of the Germans. The fall of Verdun would compel the retirement of the French from the Woevre district and Lorraine and seriously menace the French-positions in upper Alsace. It would take important lines of communication out of the hands of the French and give the Germans a crossing of the Meuse river.
