ENzBRUNNER GIVEN BUILDING PERMIT

Hans Enzbrunner was granted a lpermit by the City Council at its
 Tuesday night meeting for con- Istruction of a two-story building on
 his property adjoining the ANB hall on the south. Warehouse and shop will be located on the lower floor and living quarters upstairs George Murray appeared before the Council requesting that the
 right-of-way between the Salvation
 Army hall and the Grant Building
 be made passable to his property on
 the slOpeside. Matter was turned
 over to the street committee for , necessary action.

the net return after taxes remains |at SC or less.
 The City should not sacrifice any Ion It's rights under the Territorial Statutes to regulate the rates. In the present instance we think the Common Council was acting within it's rights in disallowing the in- crease requested in July. The cor- poration had the right, and should have carried the matter to the Courts if they deemed it necessary, instead of arbitrarily raising the rates as was done on September l without either Council sanction or Court sanction.
 MT. Proctor informed us that he was, and is, aware of the fact that, even under the presently existing rates, operations will show a loss f; and that the corporation does not intend to raise rates to the point of losing subscribers.
 Under the Statutes the corpora ton is entitled to a fair return on its investment, and that right can not be denied by Common Council action. Wrangell is a relatively small community with approxi- mately 225 subscribers; therefore costs of operation will be higher because the same expense load
 would undoubtedly service a great CT number of subscribers if they
 could be obtained
 Until such time as revenues car be increased through the installa tion of additional telephones or ex Ipenses decreased through the pur. chase of automatic equipment, we
 believe the present rates are about as reasonable as can be expected. | Respectfully submitted, c. ]. EHRENDREICH | City Accountant | HOWARD D. STABLER City Attorney

PROCLAMATION ENDS PERIOD OF KOREAN IGI BILL BENEFITS

President Eisenhower has issued a proclamation setting January 31, 1855, as the end of the period ot eligibility for certain veterans benefits of the Korean conflict, ad- ministered by Veterans Administra- tion and other Federal agencies.
 VA administered benefits affect ed by the proclamation are educa- tion and training and loans under the Korean CT Bill; rehabilitation for the disabled; compensation and pension for living veterans and for dependents of deceased veterans; medical, hospital, domiciliary and burial benefits; automobiles for the seriously disabled.
 Education Benefits
 Main concern of veterans is with education and training. The pro. clamation sets Janary 21, 1855, a. the last day of the Korean conflict during which those in service may earn entitlement to education ant training. The Korean conflict be gan June 27, 1850.
 Those entering service AFTEF January 31, 1855, will NOT be en titled to education and training when they leave service Also, as |: result of the proclamation, the ent of the Korean CT Bill education and training will be January 31 1863, or eight years after dis charge, whichever is the EARLIER
 The provision that eligible vet erans must start their education O training within three years afte discharge or release from activ

service is not changed by the pro- Iclamation. Eligible veterans who fail to begin training or education within that period will lose furth- Ter entitlement to this benefit. The proclamation also sets a cut off date for CT loan entitlement. Those entering service after the January 31, 1855 date, will not
 earn this benefit under the Korean CT Bill. They also must use the en- titlement prior to January 31, 1865.
 For entitlement to other benefits
 or information about any CT Bill
 benefit, veterans may obtain full information from their nearest Vet erans Administration office. For

 On tLe other hand, Mir. Proctor has stated that the company is planning on converting to a dial system when finances permit. This of course. would be highly desir- able from a service standpoint and might possibly effect a consider able decrease in operating expensts. However, the increased asset cost less any retiremenfs would be re- flected to a partial degree in an increased rate base; consequently, the entire expense saving would not be available for rate adjust nent purposes. When the new equipment is actually in operation. we recommend that Ordinance No. 1@s be reviewed in light of the new conditions Until that time the corporation should be required to submit annual reports on wrangelI operations similar to those exhibits attached hereto by April 1 of each year mi and as an inducement to install the dial system as rapidly as possible the rates now in effect should be continued, PROVIDED
