- THE EVENING S TUESDAY. ANUARY 25, LITTLE CHANGE LIKELY IN TELEPHONE RATES D.,C. Utilities Commission Expect- ed to Rule Soon on Com- e pany’s Request. The Public Utilities Commission probably will render a decision with- in the next few days on the applica- tion of the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company for continuation of its existing rates after January 31. Belief prevails generally that the commission wiil make no material changes, if any. in the existing schedule of rates, mainly for the rea- son that the telephone company, ac- rordin;. to its financial statements, is earn'ng only about 4 per cent on the value of the property used in ren- dering service. Several adjustments in the rale] schedule that would benefit sub- scribers are being considered by the commission, but whether they will be made is problematical. One of these questions is whether a limited subscriber who is allowed fifty calls a month for a fixed sum should be permitted to carry forward unused calls from one month to na- other. the Another matter is whether fixed charge now made by the com-| pany for semi-public slot machine telephones is fair. It is expected the commi discuss again in - its policy of the company in still main- taining a part of the force of out-of- town operators that was brought here during the year. The commission may also discuss again the question »f whether 41z per cent of earnings s a reasonable amount for the com- sany to pay to the American Tele- phone and Telegraph Company as rental on telephone instruments and ior expert engineering services. e e 36 JOIN TRADE BOARD. 3.
