TIDE WATER TO ASK
FOR GAS RATE HIKE

Officials of the Tide Water Pow
er company announced yesterday
that the North Carolina Utilities
commission would hold a hearing
at 11:00 a. m. Monday, June %, on
the company's proposal to include
an adjustment in it's gas heating
rate to partially compensate for
the increased cost Of fuel.
It was pointed out that this adj
justment does not in any way af-
feet the cost Of gas used by resi-
dental customers and in fact at
fects only III percent Of the COM
pany's gas customers and these
have been notified by letter.
The company has been faced with
rising fuel costs since 1899 and
had postponed asking for any. rate
adjustments in the hope that prices
would return to normal. The pro-
posed rate does however, provide
for automatic downward adjust
ments whenever fuel costs are re-
duced.
