POWER COMPANY
GIVEN INCREASE
IN STATE RATES

Seven-cent street car fares and
substantial increases in rates for
electric light, electric power and gas,
have been granted by the railroad
commission to the Georgia Railway
and Power company, effective on the
first day of October.
The commissions order in the case
was handed down Wednesday morn
ing after several weeks considera-
ton of the company's petition, filed
several months ago.
In it's petition, the company asked
for an increase, in round figures, of
33 1-3 per cent in street car fares,
lighting rates and power rates, and
for still greater increase in gas
rates.
The most substantial increase al
lowed by the commission is in street
car fares, which are increased from
6 to cents, and in gas rates, which
are increased from $1.25 per 1000
cubic feet, gross, to $1.55, gross
This is an increase of 16 2-3 per
cent in car fares, and an increase of
about 25 per cent in gas rates. The
increase in gas rates in suburban ter
ritory IS greater than the increase
in Atlanta proper.
In light and power rates, the COM
mission reduced substantially the
new rate proposed by the company.
Instead Of granting an increase
amounting to S3 1-3 per cent, as
asked, the commission granted IN
increase of slightly more than per
cent in light rates and an increase
of slightly more than per cent in
power rates.
Present residence and commercial
lighting rate in Decatur, kirkWood,
Last. Lake.. HapeVille, Gainesville,
Carrollton, 10 cents per kilowatt hour
for the first 100 kiloWatt hours, and
scaling down according to consump-
ton.
New rate in these towns, 1915 cents
per kIowatt hour, with an addition of
. (one-half cent? per kiIowatt hour
in each step of the scale.
Present residence and commercial
lighting rate in Hartwell, Royston,
LaVonia, Canton, BoWersville, Du-
luth, Ingleside, Charleston and Stone
Moutain, IL cents per kiloWatt hour
for the first 100 hours, and scaling
down according to consumption.
This rate is likewise kept the same,
with no increase.

strung out behind him followed. All
carried hatchets, it was noted, and
presently the sound of spllnterlng
wood and the squeals of fright of a
dozen Chinese on the fourth floor
could be heard on the street.
Ladies and gents" the voice at
the small end of the megaphone be-
gan, you are now looking upon an
unusual sight. You are seeing a raid

Just then he was knocked from

pipes came next, showerlng the pas
sengers\ with real souvenirs ana then
down the, fire escape ladder came
Bang You, John Lee and Gan Wong,
all retreating from the ex-carriers.
They were captured before they
could run away and taken to the
Elizabeth street station, prisoners on
charges of having narcotics in their
possession.
The raid, which was led by De-
tective Benjamin Bailee of Inspector
William Fennelly's staff, created
considerable excitement in China

mobile tourists a fairly good thrill.

HIGHER RATES IN
STATE SKED BY
'PHO|NE: COMPANY

A petition for Increased telephone
rates throughout the state of Geor-
gia, apportioned to, the different ex-
changes according to their individ-
ual earnings, was filed Tuesday. morn
ing with the railroad commission
by the Southern Bell Telephone and
Telegraph company. No date for the
hearing Of the petition has yet been
fixed.
During the period of federal con-
troll of telegraph and telephone lines,
Postmaster General Burleson read
justed upward the Southern Bells
rates. When the period of federal
control expired, on August 1, 1919,
the company sought and obtained au-
thority from the railroad commission
of Georgia to continue in effect in
this state, indefinitely, the rates
which had been established by Post
master General Burleson.
The commission. however, made the
proviso that the company should
come back within twelve months with
a financial report of expenses and
earnings under the Burleson rates.
This report has just been completed
by the companys auditors for its
own informa ton, for it's fiscal" year
ending August l, 1920.
The company claims that the fig
ures show a very alarming shrink
age of net earnings. 1t claims that
the company in the past twelve
months. on Georgia business, has
earned something less than 4 per
cent net. 1t claims that it's rates
must be increased to give it fair
earnings and enable it to supply
additional equipment for the public
service. Hence it asks permission
to formulate and submit to the COM
mission schedule of rates. figured
according to the earnings of each
exchange. with a view of asking the
commissions approval of the same.

Objectionable by the assembly last

Those opposed to seating them de-
clared that while the constitution
and platform had been amended, there
had been taken in good faith, and that
the Socialists were not to be trusted.

pected that the ousted men again will
