NOW UIDER OPS

JUNEAU - The Office of Price stabilization took steps to stabilize prices of used cars in Alaska. The action was in the form of an a. mendment to Ceiling Price Regul- ation a. which heretofore govern ed tho price of used ears only ir the states.
 Under the regulation, the OPS will require Alaska used car prices be determined by using the price range fixed for the West Coast and adding a stateside-to-Alaska trans portation allowance This method of determining prices is in line with normal trade practices in the Territory.
 The allowance which sellers may add to West Coast prices is based on actual transportation charges and is reduced on a percentage basis as the age of the vehicle in- ereases. A table of transportation allowances is contained in the reg ulation, a copy of which may be obtained at any Alaska OPS office.
 The OPS called attention to the fact that used ear regulations aD- ply to private sellers as well as 10 dealers and advised individuals who contemplate selling their car to contact the OPS to find out the ceiling price
 The regulation goes into effect July 19.

Council Offers Pepco
|25-Year Franchise for
|$S1,727 Annual Fee

The Potomac Electric Power Co.
would get 25-year franchise on
payment of an annual fee of $751;
727 in Montgomery County. under
an ordinance adopted by the
County Council yesterday.
Pepco will have 80 days in which
to accept the non-exclusive franz
chise.
The Council has been consider.
ing the franchise since last May.
Under the original draft, the power
company would have had to pay
3 per cent Of its gross income in
the county, or about $4,000 q
year. The second proposal called
for fiat annual fee of 500, 900.
The proposed ordinance would be
effective as of last August 8. when
Pepco's former 25-year francise
expired. The new franchise car
ries with it no right of renewal.
The fee asked by the Council
was based on 500 a mile for the
|county's 817.27 miles of road used
by the power company.
The council would reserve the
right to reconsider the fee at any
time after five years. Either Pepco
or the council could request the
reconsideration.
The council also would reserve
the right to alter, amend or re-
peal the franchise ordinance in
full or in part.
Pepco officials have fought the
county's moves to require the pay
ment Of a franchise fee. They
have warned that the cost of any
excessive fee would be passed on
the consumers. Council mem
bers yesterday said the cost Of
the franchise would amount to
about 8 cents on a $40 electric bill.
The council yesterday was told
the Maryland State Roads Com
mission had set the cost of WIDEN
ing Connecticut avenue between
Chevy Chase lake and Jones
Bridge road at $3.50. 900.
! Mrs. Kathryn j. Lawlor re-
4 ported on a hearing held before
the commission yesterday in
Baltimore. She said the commits
sion was sympathetic and hoped
something could be done.
The commission promised an
immediate answer to the request
for the widening. Mrs. Lawlor
said the project is high on the
commissions five-year plan, but
she considered it an emergency
matter.
