Saving on Meters.
Company officials explained that the
new domestic rate would make 1t pos
= sible for new customers to install elec-
' trio ranges or other heavy duty ap-
pliances for homes without the expense
of an extra meter as the rates on
schedule A have been adjusted with the
! idea of making it possible to have all
! home appliances on a single meter.
1t also will be possible, and in some
cases cheaper, they explained, for Gus
toners now having two meters for
| residential current to abandon their
! schedule K meter and have their ap-
, pliances re-wired to single meter.
The rates offered today were intended
| to be specially attractive to residents OF
| nearby Maryland by extending to some
of them the same rates as apply in the
District. The Maryland communities to
be affected will include Bethesda, Chevy
Chase, Hyattsville and other densely
populated sections. A map of the new
area will be furnished to the commits
sion later.
Beyond the first Maryland area will
be a second, where rates in gensgal
will be only slightly higher than tl,ost
in the first area
