"It can be noted from the tabu lation in the report that the rates of the company for 20 therms of gas were the lowest in the state for the period ending March 1, 1946, even including the Portland Gas & Coke Company on an equivalent basis for their Portland division. The advance of 5.1 cents per therm of gas furnished the user would Increase the price at Roseburg to the point comparable to, or lower than, service pro vided by the other gas utilities operating in Oregon. "The California-Pacific Utilities Company's rate is $5.82 for 20 therms of gas, while the state ave rage for the equivalent use is .bl as of Marcn l, 1949. The per centage increase, however, is high, and is considerably higher than the average of the state due to the company's very favorable conditions existing between the supplier or butane and the utility prior to July 1, 1948; "The only other alternative to the fuel adjustment clause would be to make a general increase of tariffs of the company to meet the additional costs placed upon It, which we feel would not be Justi fied in view of the present market conditions. We feel that sometime In the future the price of butane will decrease, and the application of the fuel oil adjustment clause will automatically reduce the price per th.erm in the same pro portions as it was increased."
