A Reduction in Gas Bates It is our very great pleasure to inform the people of Roseburg that their gas rates are going to be reduced, commencing with November bills. . 1 By this rate reduction we are passing on to our customers the benefit of savings in our fuel cost' which have been accomplished within the last few weeks. Rate reductions scheduled for Roseburg will amount to 2.1 a therm. This will constitute a reduction of about 10 percent in the average bill and will cancel out one-third of the increase in gas rates which has been in effect since mid-1948. Reductions scheduled for all of our Oregon Utility Gas Properties will save consumers an estimated $113,600 a year, of which amount $18,900 will be saved by the people of Roseburg. . In such substantial manner a cardinal principle of our operating policy is seen at work the policy of giving our customers the benefit of lower production costs in the form of lower gas rates.
