Cal Pacific Seeks Increase
In Gas Service Charges;
Copco Rates Are Criticized
The California Pacific Utilities I
Co. is seeking an increase for gas
service in its Southern Oregon di
vision, the Roseburg City Council
was informed Monday night.
Howard Morgan, public Utilities
commissioner, wrote the council
that a hearing on the matter will
be held in Klamath Falls Aug. 27.
He invited participation by the city
in the hearing. .
The rate increase would bring
in an additional $123,166 in revenue,
Morgan said, although no base rate
increase was mentioned.
The rates of the California Ore
gon Power Co. were brought un
der fire by a merchant who owns
a group of stores in Oregon.
Archie Weinstein, Eugene, of the
Eugene Surplus and Sales, com
plained that although his Eugene
store uses three times as much
electricity as does the Roseburg
outlet, his Eugene Water and Elec
tric Board bill runs to $75 a
month, compared to the $115 Cop
co bill here.
Weinstein proposed council back
ing in suggesting that the public
utilities commissioner call a pub-
party DIP MIX

lie hearing to review the Copco
rates.
Copco was involved in another
council action. The council granted
an easement to the company to
cross a point on the east edge of
the municipal airport with a line.
In other action the council:
1. Accepted the Lockwood Motor
Co. bid of $1,155.03 for a new Ford
police car. However, City Man
ager George Farrell and acting
Police Chief Vernon M. Murdock
Jr. will decide whether to add op
tions, such as a V-8 engine. Other
bids were $1,510 by Hansen Mo
tor Co. for a Chevrolet and $1,997.13
by Riverside Motor Co. for a Stude-baker.
2. Waived posting of business
bond by C. J. Finch, who plans to
operate the D and M Specialty Co.,
a gift shop, at 633 SE Jackson St.
He said he has office space leased
for a year from Mr. and Mrs.
Giles Asnman. .
3. Directed negotiations to start
between the city and two tamiues
living at the dead-end of W. Kidge-
view Street who claim that the city
has billed them unnecessarily for
street assessments. The families
are Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Lillard and
Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Christian.
In a netition to the council, the
couples said they had been charg
ed $131. ( eacn ior sireei improve
ments. Thev Dointed out they had
been charged on the regular front-
foot basis, and added that since
their DroDertv abuts the end of the
street, the street had been paid for
by other property owners whose
properties flame tne street.
Farrell told the council that an
adiustment probably is necessary.
He, Lillard and Mayor Jacklin
were to meet this morning to iron
out the problem. Lillard is acting
as Christian s agent.

Some 14 years ago, Ruby Dunbar settfed happily for a
home that's really wired for sound. She lives with loud
speakers, TV sets and other communications gadgets in
i nearly every room. "With a telephone man like Walt,"
she says, you can t tell where the job ends and the hobby
starts. And me? Well, I like it." Ruby is happy about all
the special training that has come with Walt's job. She
likes, the way he's been moved up to an important job.
And she's been able to count on the steady pay that's
meant a secure life for her family.
I Walt, now an engineer, is sold on the phone busi-'
I ncss. He's proof that good training, regular promotions
and steady pay attract good people. And only good peo
ple can give you the good telephone service you want.
