COMPLAINTS HEARD
Public Utilities Commission Listens
to Grievances Over Arbitrary
Cost Fixed by Company.

Formal inquiry was made by the
public utilities commission at a public
hearing today into the reasonablenesf
of removal charges maintained by the
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company. On the ground that the rates.
which are 50 for removal of an outside
telephone and 81 for an inside tele-
phone, are excessive, many subscribers
have complained to the commission. AL
though the company, in its schedule Of
rates filed with the commission, ex-
plains that the removal charge is for
change In equipment" today's hearing
brought out the fact that the charge is
made in cases when no change in
equipment Is necessary, as for example
when a subscriber moves into a house
in which a telephone is already in
stalled.
In explanation of the matter, S. NJ.
