18 SOB000 PHONE INCREASE CRANTED Maryland Public Service Commission Order Becomes Effective April 1. &pecial Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, March 19.—The Pub- lic Service Commission late vesterday granted an Increase of $889,000 a year to the Chesapeake and Potomac Tele- phone Company The increase was made necessarv L e by an injunction secured In Federal court by the company against the commission, February 27, after the commission had continued present Tuces. The fncrease begins April 1, accord- ing to the commission order. It is understood, however, the company will have the right under the court order to collect the difference between the old rate and today’s rate between January 1 and April 1. On resident phones and one-party business phones the increase will be about $500,000, or a little over half what the company asked. The rest of the ralse, $399,000, is| borne by private switchboard lines and others belonging to big busi- nesses. Order Saves Public Big Sum. The commission estimates the com- pany rates would have meant a raise of $1,119,000, figuring the commission order to save the public $310,000 a year. The in service which the company had o and which would have cost $110 year are not al- lowed by the commission, service un- der the new rates being the same as under the old The commission estimated the rates ordered will yield the company 6.10 per cent a year. The court in its in- junction order said the company must be allowed to earn 6 per cent a vear. Simultaneously with the order the commission assented to the court in- Junction being signed, and asked that it be made permanent. CITED AFTER 60 YEARS. Gen. Jobhn A. Kress Also Gets D. S.

The most economical We believe Nokol is the most economical heating service in existence. Its fuel cost is less than that of hard coal. It is also, to the best of our knowledge, less than that of any other oil burner, regardless of the grade of fuel used. A small amount added to what you now pay your janitor will practically pay for Nokol, to say nothing of your saving in time, labor, cleaners’ and decorators’ bills. Install Nokol now. Then you will have it during the variable weather of Spring, when you need even heat most. An installation can be made at once, without interrupting your heating. Call, phone or write today.
