Electric Rates

Decrease Takes
Effect Monday
In Two Counties

Customers Of the Potomac
Electric Power Co. in Prince
Georges and MONTGOMERY
Counties received a rate reduc-
ton today from the Maryland
Public Service Commission.
The schedule of reduced rates
becomes effective next Monday
The commission said the re-
1uction was approved after con-
sultation with PEPCO and
utility commissioners in Wash
ington and Virginia. District
rate reductions were approved
yesterday. Virginia has made
no announcement as yet.
Savings will total s1.1 million
for customers in the two nearby
Maryland counties. There are
186,500 electric consumers in
the two counties. of which
172, 900 are residential. The
savings will be $1.44 per year
for residential customers.
Reductions Approved
The District Public utilities
Commission yesterday approved
rate reductions for the COM
pany's approximately 100000
customers in the District. The
reductions are designed to save
District customers about SI.3
million annually.
The vice president of the
P. U. c.. Edgar H. Bernstein,
said today the commission will
study the impact of the new
rates before deciding whether
a public hearing on rates should
be scheduled some time next
year. Meanwhile, he said, the
P. U. c. will continue to study
the kind of service furnished
by the company and whether
there is any discrimination in
the new rates against certain
users.
The formal investigation was
ordered last July after the
PUG. refused to approve a les
ser reduction offered by the
company.
The PUG. has been nego-
tiating since last March with
the company after it found
that its profits were exceeding
levels previously authorized.
The excess at that time was
estimated to mean an added 81
million charges annually to the
company's $4,000 customers
throughout the metropolitan
area.
SIS Million Saved
Yesterdays reductions, If ap.
proved by Virginia, will resul
, in $2.6 million annual saving
to area customers
Mr.. Bernstein Of the p. u. c
pointed out yesterday that the
81 million excess charges APP
piled to the company'S opera
tons for the year ending last
! March. Since then the COM
pany'S costs have gone up, in
Guiding an added 81 million in
depreciation resulting from
higher depreciation charges au-
thorized by the P. u. c. With
the higher costs and the reduc-
4 ton, the company's profit rate
4 will be about 5.92 per cent OF
investment compared to the
previously 5.85 per cent.
The PUG. in accepting
PEPCO's proposal did not rule
out the possibility Of further
reductions if the commission
finds they are warrante d

A new course of study is now
being developed for the elem

would probably fit if it were

PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS

Grated by the Archdiocese OF
Washington, by far the largest
private school system in the

parents to give their children
adequate instruction in human

superintendent, the Right Rev
John S. Spence.
Both through the home and
S CHI DOL associations and the
Family Life Movement, he said
programs are arranged for par
ents to help them fulfill this
task"
However. he said, the schools
are sometimes forced to as
sumo the role of the parent in

reason the parent defaults"

The social security-cOllected
insurance would be limited to
.coverage of institutional serv-
ices in hospitals or skilled
nursing homes for acute i'll

The increase in the social

Two Expensive Items
The committee noted that
the costs of hospital and nurs-
ing home care are the major
areas in which older persons
expenses are higher than when
they were young. Thus, they
argue. these are the most APP
propriate areas for the Gov
eminent to cover with a pay
roll tax program.
The Secretary of HEW would
have authority to contract with
existing voluntary agencies fol
the administration of this pro-
gram.
1t is estimated that this pub
lie program would pay about
one-third the total health care
costs of the aged.
To meet at least another
third of the costs. Congress
would encourage private firms
to cooperate in pooling risks
and deviSing one or more ma
tional programs which would
be freed of premium taxes II
they met certain standards.

the private program, like the
public program, could be pre-
paid before age IS.

New Medical Cost Plan
For Aged Is Drafted
By WILLIAM GRIGG
star staff Writer

Two former Secretaries of Health Education and Welfare
have Joined other citizens in drafting new attack on
the health problems of and women over IS.
Under the proposal the social security tax system would
h sed TO collect money pay for payments for hospital
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-11-13

and nursing home care.
These funds. however. would
be administered by private
agencies. such as the non
profit Blue Cross groups, which
already have payment plans
with hospitals and nursing
homes.
Congress would permit pri-
yate insurance firms to CO.
operate in developing a tax
free plan to supplement the
public program with low-cost
insurance for surgery fees and
other medical service costs
under the plan. This would
include protection such as that
in major medical" insurance
plans.
This private portion would
cover areas of physician care,
diagnostic services in and out
of a hospital and nursing costs
The committee estimates that
this private program could be
provided for 50 to SO a week
and that the Federal program
would free enough money to
permit the private program to
be purchased by many with rel
alive ease.
Dentist Bills Excluded
Left uncovered would be GER
tain hard-to-insure costs such
as visits to dentists and doc
tors offices. There would also
be a deductible feature in the
major medical" portion of the
private insurance program to
discourage overuse and help
keep the cost low.
Details of the proposal were
released today by the National
Committee on Health Care OF
the Aged headed by Arthur S.
Flemming, former Secretary OF
Health, Education and Welfare,
and now president of the Uni
versity of oregon. The COM
mittee developed the plan.
In a press conference today
Senator Javits, Republican Of
New York, said he intends to
draft legislation implementing
the committees report.
From my preliminary re-
view of this report" Senator
Javits said, "it seems to me to
establish an excellent basis for
implementing legislation for
health care of the aged"
The new proposal appears to
be broader than the Kennedy
administrations proposed med
icare program. However. the
Federal Government would
have a smaller role.
