Pepco Rate Rise
Set for July
Increase Granted by
PUG Is Subject to
Formal Approval
By Jerry o'Leory, Jr.


Washington residents will have to
pay higher electric rates to the
Potomac Electric Power Co. begin
ming July 81.
This was revealed late yesterday
when the Public Utilities Commis-
sion ordered Pepco to submit a re-
vised rate schedule based on ar
annual increased revenue Of $2,75O,-
600. Pepco, at hearings held June
8 and 9 and Tuesday and Wednes-
day this week. had asked $3,000OO(
In annual increased income.
1t was estimated the increase Will
add between 80 and 40 cents to the
monthly bills of the average electric
consumer.
Water Heat Rider Eliminated.
The PUG opinion, issued by Chair
man James H. Flanagan. declared
after careful consideration OF
the entire record in this case, the
commission has reached the con-
cllsion that an increase in the rates
charged by the company for electrlc
service in the annual amount OF
s275O,OO0 (based upon sales OF elec-
trio energy during 194O is neces-
sarv to maintain the company IN
sound financial position and 70
nrovide it with the heretofore de-
termined fair and reasonable return
of 81 per cent on its investment
devoted to the furnishing OF electric
service"
At the same time the PUG de-
cided to eliminate a Pepco floer
that would have provided certain
discounts for customers using elec-
tricitv for hot water heating.
The new rates must be approved
formally by the PUG before they
can 60 into effect on July Il.
Pepco applied for the rate IN,
crease May II on the grounds that
coal prices had gone up and tha'
increased operating revenue was
needed Immediately to finance az
s86,000,0OO plant expansion pro-
gram.
EXPANSION Need Cited.
The company contended the eX'
pansion program is required be-
cause of population expansion
backlog construction such as stree
lighting and commercial building
renovation delayed by the war
present availability of electrical a.
pliances not available during th'
war: increase in electrical facilities
stimulated by the war; Resumption
of a Government building program
and today's high level OF construc'
ton costs.
During the hearings a Pepco OF
fetal indicated the proposed new
rate increase might be the fore
runner of another company reques
for higher prices. The admission
came from R. Roy Dunn, vice preSl'
dent and treasurer of Pepco, as III
was being questioned by PUG Mem
Der James Lauderdale.
Mr.. Dunn said it was his opinion
the new increase would not be SUI
f1cient to produce enough earning
power to attract investors needed K
finance the expansion program. HI
said the company would have to SET
what effect the new increases have
on Pepco finances before it coule
tell whether another increase i:

Reports at Meeting
On Conservation
By the Assoeioted Press

SOLOMONS, Md, July 9.-Mary-
land should spend $4,000 900 in the
next five years on its new Bayslde
State Park, Director Joseph F. Kay
lor Of the Department OF Forests
and Parks said today.
Mr.. Kaylor was one of several
conservation officials reporting to
the States seventh annual joint
conservation meeting. sponsored by
the Board of Natural Resources.
After a discussion this morning
at the Chesapeake Biological Lab
oratory, some IS department heads
and their assistants were scheduled
to depart for Annapolis this after
noon aboard the State yacht Poto-
mac. The group embarked from
Annapolis yesterday.
Chairman John E. Clark OF the
Board of Natural Resources said
that Marylanders may be more con-
servation- minded than some State
officers.
"I am almost tempted to believe
that at the present time the public
Is more willing to support vigorous
conservation policy, and more will
ing to provide funds for the job
than realized by our administrators
and budget-making authorities" he
said.
Mr. Kaylor's report, incorporated
in a revised "six-year conservation
program" recommended that $780,
600 be spent on the Bayside Park
at Sandy Point in 1949. The cost OF
construction in other years would
be s50O,000 in 1850; $500, 10000 in
1851 and 1852. and 100000 in 1858.
The total of more than $4,000 900
compares with $575,000 recommend
ed for construction and repairs on
other State parks from 194S to
1858.
The State has taken 60-day op-
ton to pay William H. Labrot
S160000 for a 725-acre waterfront
park site just northeast OF Ann
apolis.
The existing State parks are for
the most part in the mountainous
sections of Western Maryland and
are either inaccessible or inconven-
lent for one-day or week end visit
ors,' Mr. Kaylor said.
1.-THE State Is thus concluding the
purchase of the most desirable area
along the Chesapeake Bay for a
bayside park and recreational area.
Over 100000 people live within 40
miles of this area where the beach
is excellent and the water clean,"
Mr.. Kaylor said.
Director David H. Wallace of the
Department of Tidewater Fisheries
said that agency is working with
fishermen to remedy obvious de-
fects in the overall fishery laws"
He said further restrictions" on
catches of certain species may be
necessary.
Director Ernest A. Vaughn said
the Department of Game and In
land Fish contemplates S65,000.
: l6-year program TO acquire marsh
lands for the increase OF popula-
uions of marsh birds and mammals y
. Mr.. Vaughn said the agency
. planned to secure a fish truck 20
. 20 through the State "salvaging fish
from distressed waters and to move
same to potential fishing areas"
DR.. Joseph Y. Signewald, jr., di-
rector of the Department of Geol-
ogy, Mines and Water Resources,
injected an antI-inf1ation note by
saying "the department believes
| that it can operate more efficiently
/. with a $25,000 annual appropria-
f ton than with larger one, so that
it does not request larger appro-
! priation than it recommended In
