During the military review 10.000 crack troops particularly symbolized France's victorious army. These troop chnrffed ns thev came before the grand - stands, where groups of wnr widows nnd orphans and mutilated soldiers were given places of honor.

G. I. Refuses to Make Definite Prediction on Future Costs RISE COMING, SAYS COX Samuel T. Rodlne believes.' but will not guarantee, that the new gas stand ard will gtvci'the c'ltv's consumers bet ter gas at no greater cosl. Slf. Ilodlnc, who is president of tho Fnlled Gas Improvement Co.'. mndo this statement today in reply to Councllmau Edwin It. Qox. Mr, Cox, In Council yesterday, said the ordinance authorizing the U. G. I, to reduce the Hrltish thermal units, a measure of heat energy, from 000 to 550, would make gas cost 35 per cent more. "The reduction in units, from 000 to n.10 in our gas here, will be carried out gradually over a period of two months," Sir. Ilodlnc said. "III Other Cities flf the ITllfteil Slln'lea the standard ii much' lower, while In ( nnndn the gas contains only 450 Hrlt- isn iiicrmai units, in no ense has this reduction been nccnmnnnleil bv nn In. crease in cost. We nro threatened wlfh n rUu shortage In the oil used in the refining process of gas production. The reduc tion, over ine period irom now to ,lnn tiary 1 will do much to mltlirntn hl but will not absolutely remove the dan ger. Wc trust that the committee of experts to bo appointed by the SInvor will find some solution in tho mean time." Asked ns to the effect on the invest ing publle of the new regulation. Sir. Hodlnc said that it would probably not be of any weight. According to Sir. Hodlnc, there are only thirty-four cities In the United States still adhering to the candle power standard, New York and this city being the only large ones. He charac terized the camllp-power system ns one permitting fluctuations in the quality of the gas, whereas the. Hrltlsh thermal unit system permits u more rigid ad herence to n fixed quality. Sir. Hodlnc said that the reduction will bo accomplished by such easy stages that the consumer will linvo to make no adjustments to existing gas fix tures. "Tills problem Is n serious one for the city and our company," Sir. Hodlnc said. "As mapagcrs of the city gas system for the last twetity-two years. we have turned the former deficit of fi.'150,000 annually into a profit for the city of 53,000,000 each year. If we arc to continue to do this in the face of post-war conditions, we must find some way ot economizing In the pro duction of gns. We cannot afford to extend tho gns system nt the present time, ns the compmiy itself is operating nt a loss. It is to help meet this loss nnd tho shortnge of oil that wo have asked for this reduction." wiLLsTip CHARITIES Catholic and Jewish Instltutlona Benefit in Two Instances Charitable institutions were named as beneficiaries in two wills probated today.
