Fritz, of the Logan Natural Gus and Fuel Co., who returned last Thursday from the two- day session of the convention held in Columbus. The address of the president. J. W. McMahon, of Toledo, predicted that within a comparatively few years the gas industry as such must pass Into history, as the supply will be exhausted. "Yeurs ugo government ownership of utilities wus the slogan of so- culled radicals," suld Mr. McMahon. "Hut this agitation for government ownership has ceased to lie the cry of radicals and has become the slogan of the conservative owners of the utilities. Today the owners of any utility from railroads down, would gladly take the money that would be realized by purchase by stute or federal government and seek In other fields thun public service investment return with freedom." A moving picture of the history of the gas history was a feature of the convention. Officers elected for the coming year were: President, H. J. Hoover, Cincinnati, O.; vice-president, T. C. Jones, Delaware; and E. T. Clagget, Columbus; secretary-treasurer, Wm. H. Thompson. Columbus; directors. J. M. McMahon, Toledo; J. M. Gurard, Columbus; Ira Neely, Wooster; Geo, W.
