Seattle (P)- The Alaska Steamship Company reported that the Federal Maritime
 Board approved it's freight
 and passenger rate increase. The new rates are effective l immediately under the boards ruling. D. E. Skinner. vice president of the ASC, said. Territorial officials and the Territorial Office of Price Stabilization protested the raise in rates. Any advance in rates will be passed on to the consumer with resulting disruption of the price control program, the OPS office in Juneau said.
 The steamship company, which has petitioned the FMB to vacate an order delaying the increase contended that without the increased rates the carriers property will be subjected to public use with out compensation, the OPS said.
 The new tariff provides for a 1O% boost in all passenger fares with varying rate in- creases on freight to diffe rent ports.
