INCREASE
IS COMING
IN RATES :;
(BY MAX ABERNETHY-


Raleigh, May 3O-Publication i'm
this correspondence May IL that the
telephone rates in North Carolina
would not be increased in the early
decision of the state corporation CON-
mission twice brought officials of the
Southern Bell Telephone Company. to
the capital where they conferred with
members of the commission
The visit Of the telephone officials
during the last ten days is said to
have been for the purpose of furn-
isling some Traditional informa-
tion" to the commissioners. 1t does
not appear what the Traditional in
eorma tionr was nor did the COM
mission think it pertinent to make
public the facts in connection with
the visit of the telephone officials.
It may be that there was little
or no significance in the visit but
it is interesting that one member Of
the commission who three weeks ago
said that "our order has all but
ruled the Southern Bells case out Of
court" today thinks that the Raj
elgh morning newspapers edltOrlal
argument against granting the COM
pany an increase in rates is decidedly
unsound. This argument was that
it made no difference whether tie
Southern Bell Company was making
money in North Carolina provided
parent organization the American
! T. and P. Company was showing a
| nine percent gain annually.
But the Hadditioal informatTonp
has been given the commissioners
and the decision allowing or disallow-
ing the increased rates in North
Carolina cities and towns is expected
! by the end of the present week.
Protesting officials of municipaii-
ties have not been called upon for
any additional information in opposi-
ton to the application for increased
rates.
