RECEIVE SHARE
OF MILLIONS

Employees in the Delaware, Mary
land, D. C. Division of the Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey which in
cludes the lower Eastern Shore Of Vir-
ginia and the Eastern Section of West
Virginia were informed today by Mr..
w. H. Evans, Manager, that they were
to receive their share of approximate
ly $2,25O,00 that the Company
and affiliates are making as an adj
ditional contribution to increase the
balances which employees have to
their credit in the Annuity and Thrift
Plan.
Every employee participating in the
Plan will receive a credit of $500
and those not participating in the Plan
who have one or more years of service
will receive a credit of a like amount.
The remainder of the $2,250,000 will
be distributed on a proportional basis
to the employees participating in the
Thrift Plan.

ployees Thrift Plan any employee can
authorize his employing company to
withhold and assign to his credit in
the Fund not less than per cent nor
more than 13 per cent out of his pay
envelope. The employing Company
adds to this payment dollar for dol
lar on the first 3 per cent of the en-
ployee's salary assigned to the Fund
and Soc more for each dollar above the
per cent minimum required for mem
bership.
The management has made it clear
since the Fund was first set up on
January 1, 1886 that while the Com
pany was under no obligation to do so,
it hoped to make an extra sum avail
able when business conditions, earn
ings, cash position and other factors
justified it in doing so. The two and
a quarter million dollars contributed
this year brings the total additional
contributions made under the Plan by
all participating companies to nearly
$10,75O,0 100000.

Commission, and Paul Holland, chief
engineer, began investigation into the
ferry company's revenues and ex-
penses and physical properties. Their
reports are expected to be ready for
submission to the Commission shortly.
Following their submission, Peo-
pies Counsel, Joseph Sherbow, will
present the case for rate reduction.
The Claiborne-Annapolis Ferry Co.,
originally operated between Claiborne
and Annapolis. Its main operation
now is between Matapeake and An
napolis with a shuttle service from
Romancoke on Kent Island to Clai-
obrne, and bus connections between
Romancoke and Matapeake. The shut
tie and overland service is said to
have proved an expensive operation.
The present hearings on rate reduc-
tions have been initiated by the Pub
lie Service Commission through its
Peoples Counsel. Sentiment for rate
reduction has been general on the mid
die Eastern Shore for some years, al
though it failed to jell sufficiently to
warrant hearings.
