HIGH EXPENSE
CAUSES RAISE
STATES DILL
Superintendent of Company
Says Increase is Necessary
Because of Increased Cost
of Operation.
ASK EIGHT Per CENT

Referring to the action of the Rich
mond City Water Works company in
petitioning the Indiana Public Service
commission for an increase in rates,
Howard Dill, superintendent of the
company said Thursday:
I'VE are not asking for re-valua-
tion of the plant, although re-valua-
ton would be more than represented
by the capital stock of the company
which is $S50,000. We are asking for
an increase in rates because of the
increase in expenses.
'We are asking for larger rate of
depreciation and a sufficient rate of
return upon our capital and stock so
that we will be able to sell new stock
issues in an amount sufficient to cover
necessary improvements"
Claim 6.31 Per Cent
Mr.. Dill states that, although the
commission has authorized the COM
pany to receive a 61s per cent return
upon it's capital stock, his figures
show that for the first nine months
of this year the per cent of return
upon the capital stock has been only
6,31 per cent, notwithstanding the
fact that last year the commission
authorized a general seven per cent
increase in rates for the company, eff
fective Dec. 1919.
Mr.. Dill insists that eight per cen:
would be fair return on the invest
mcnt.
Contemplate Improve
Necessary plant improvements must
be financed from time to time by
stock issues and, Mr.. Dill points out,
stock bearing only six and one-haif
per cent return is no longer attrac-
tive when sound investments, bringing
in dividenrs of seven and eight pc.
cent, can be had
improvements to the water works
plant from Nov. l, 1915, to Sept. 50
1920, have cost 1854. 1t is the desire
of the company to issue stock to cover
this expense.
Coal and Labor High.
Mr.. Dill presents figures to show
the net increase in the company's rev.
enue from Sept, 1919, to Sept, 1920,
has been 10 per cent against a net
increase in expenditures of 81. per
cent for the same period. The prin
cipal items in the list of increased
expenditures are for coal and laboE.
Mr. Dill states that coal prices have
increased from $40 per ton, in June,
1918, to 7.7S in September. 1920. There
has been a 81 per cent increase in
labor cost since January, 1917.

placed earlier in the Democratic
column.
Democrats Hopeless.
Victories in all five of these districts

possible results for the Democrats
200 for the Republicans.

SNOW HINDERS REDS
IN THEIR MOVEMENTS
OF CANNON, SUPPLIES
(By Associated PreSS)

SIBASTOPOL, Nov. Snow has
been falling over the Tauridian plains,
north of the slender isthmus connect
ing Crmea to the mainland of Rus
sia and it has tended to render high
ways impossible. thus retarding the
movement of Bolshevik cannon and
supply trains being brought up from
the Dnieper river to force a passage
south of Perekop. Soviet cavalry and
infantry made rapid advances during
the past week against General Baron
Wrangel's antiBOlshevik army. and
drove it back to the Crimean PENN
Sula.
General N-rangel. who has been en-
gagged in a life and death struggle
against the enemy, did not seriously
oppose the onrush of the Boshevlki,
but Garingly cut around one flank and
fell upon their line of communications
near Salkovo. In this fight many
thousands of prisoners were taken by
the Wransel forces.
Pay Big Prices.
Since the passing OF the 1lrSt panic
during which excited people and spec
ulators paid enormous prices for ac-
commodations on board of Black Sea
ships this city has quieted down.
Rear Admiral Sablin, former com
mander in chief of the Russian Black
Sea fleet, a3d in charge OF naval unit S
loyal to General WraneC! is dead at
Yalta, following an operation. He sue
ceeded Admiral KredOtf as head Oh
the anti Bolshevik naval service.
General Wrangel's troops, after their
victories on Nov l and =, and before
their withdrawal, are said to have
10
hundreds of Jewish Bolslevik commits
saries, as we'll as Hungarians, Ru-
manians. Chinese and Germans
Total Rout
Following the total rout Of the Boil
sheviki on Nov. 3, General Wrangel
slowly withdrew his line toward the
Salkovo railway, where it united with
units which had been holding the SOW
let forces below Me!itipOl. These
units took from the Bolsheyik twenty
cannon. a large number of machine
guns and many prisoners. In explain
ing his retirement, General Wrangel
said:
In view of the absolute superiority
of the enemy's numbers, which al
lowed the Bolsheviki to replace their
losses. it was decided to withdraw to
Crimea. Our troops are tired but
their spirits are good. The retreat
was conducted without pressure from
the enemy"
Attack Both Wings
Eight divisions of infantry and Gen
eral Budenny's cavalry made up the
soviet army the attack of which broke
the strength of Baron Wrangers for
ces in Taurida These troops, advanc-
ing from Nikopol, on October 81. at
tackled both wings of the anti-Bolshe-
vik army.
Ten thousand of General Rudenny' S
men swept southwark as far as Sal
kovo. where Gen. Wrangers counter
attack resulted in their surrender.
Five columns of superior soviet forces,
