La Follette Speech Charged Frivolous by Brief
A supplementary brief to the Senate Privileges and Elections Committee calls charges over Senator La Follette's St Paul speech frivolous and a tempest in a teapot. The brief praises the speech as an earnest plea to defend the Constitution and institutions and urges dismissal of the accusations. It also notes an AP transmission error and criticizes the wire service for not correcting it sooner.

The Public Service Commission adopts a fixed wartime procedure to grant temporary rate increases for public utilities like Queens Borough Gas and Electric. It aims to avoid full appraisals costing up to 50000, delaying service during war. The hearing shows rising expenses and declining net returns, with proposals for gas from 1.15 to 1.40 and electricity from 12 to 14 cents.
