PHONE COMPANY Is
ALLOWED INCREASE
OF 40 PER CENT
Harry Westcott. Man+eo Native,
Writes Order Allowing Two
Third S Of Increase Request
ed; Increase Given Is
No Surprise

The State Utilities Commission
this week gave Norfolk and Caro-
lima Telephone Company perfnis-
sion to raise its rates approximate
ly 100000 year starting April
l. 1t gave the comany about two
thirds of what it asked for and
telephone subscribers will now
have to pay about 40 per cent more
than usual. Manteo subscribers are
really catching it now.
1t had asked for S159, 165.6O
more year. The State Utilities
Commission ruled $1O1 900 was
enough.
The increase will raise telephone
bills at Elizabeth City, Edenton,
Hartford, Manteo, Sunbury and
Coinjock. Kill Devil Hills rates,
set last May II, will remain at
present levels.
Company witnesses contended at
a public hearing that they needed
more income to offset rising oper-
ating costs and to earn a fair re-
turn on their investment. They
claimed a higher rate of return
was necessary if they hoped to at
tract additional capital for ex-
banding and improving service.
Norfolk and Carolina customers,
from Elizabeth City, Manteo, Sun
bury, Hobbsville, Hartford and
Edenton protested that most of
the increase would go to pay the
cost of new company retirement
program. They said a good part
of the retirement benefits would
go to company stockholders who
serve as company officers as well
as company directors.
The company reported it was
earning return of 1857 per cent
under present rates on its invest
ment and would earn 6.65 per cent
if the rates it proposed were APP
proved.
Westcott Says It's Fair
Commissioner Harry T. West
colt, native of Manteo, author of
the Commissions order, wrote a
study of the evidence showed the
company is earning 4.O4 per cent
on its investment under present
rates and would have earned CT
per cent if the company proposed
rates were adopted.
He said the ST per cent return
would be in excess of what the
Commission considers t'fair, Just
and reasonable" He explained the
$101, 900 allowed would provide
"fair, just and reasonable" six per
cent return.
Westcott concluded the order by
commenting on the company's pro-
posed pension plan. The company
intends to charge the full cost to
its customers. Westcott wrote that
half the cost should come from

HATTERAS ISLANDERS
DON'T WANT COUNTY
TO BUILD EN- A JAIL

News that the County Board
had approved a request to build
a jain on Hatteras Island seems
to have arounsed storm of pro-
test from citizens in many quar-
tiers of its seven villages, and
numerous reports have come to
this paper from people who wish
some statement to the effect that
they consider the proposition dis
graceful advertising for the is
land.
Even this week, one prominent
member of the group of nine who
visited the Board last month to
request a Jail stated that he was
only just along to hear what was
said, but he is very much opposed
to the plan.
"What good is a Jail anyway ?"
One asks, unless you have off
GERS who will do something. This
we have never had"
at is no good to apprehend law
breakers and lock them up over
night when the court turns them
loose next day." said another citi-
zen. "Our offenders have never
been afraid of the courts in Dare
County. Nothing is done by way
of punishment"
Simply building a Jail would
be disgrace to the island, and a
ridiculous waste of county money.
We ought to cut out so much fool
ishness and waste, and spend
money for something useful" was
another expression.
