. Gentlemen: This Is to notify you
that the California Oregon Power
company has filed with this commis
sion a new tnriff to becor.ie effective
Pehruary 1, 1924
We are advised that only two sched
ules are nflVrtcd. "Electric Cooking
and Heating" and "Power." '"he pro
posed electric cooking rnto provides
for an Increaso from In to lc per
U.w.h. for the consumption intexcess
of 230 k.w.h. per month. A corre
spondlng Increase for commercial
cooking will also occur with a reduc
tion in this kind of cooking of $1.1)0
in tho minimum chnrgo for small con
sumers. Tho flat rato water heaters
not connected with cooking devices
will bo charged $1.00 plus 4-10c per
watt ot capacity. A net Increase on
the two divisions of about 2 2-10 per
cent will occur for cooking and heat
ing.' Tho increase In tho power schedule
affects an estimated 32 customers
only. Tho totnl effect thereof being
approximately 9 4-10 per cent for
the two divisions.
In explanation of this Increnso In
rates, we will offer the information
thnt tho utility's rato of return for
1923. based on the information now
nvnilable,' will be Ichs than 6 per cent
and it has been much less than that
during the preceding years. Tho rates
affected by tho incrense are lower,
and the now rates will remain lower
than the corresponding rate for other
utilities In this state.
It will be noted that tho relative
amount of Increase is not great and
we are advised by tho utility that it is
for the purpose not so much of in
creasing present rates, as to provido
that future business will not be tnken
on what the utility considers less than
the cost of service.
These rates will become effective
on February 1. 1924, unless suspended
by the, commission upon protest of
consumers, who will consider tho pro
posed increase to be unfair and there
fore register such protest with ytho
commission.
It is suggested that tho local office
of the utility be consulted for further
Information relative to the proposed
tariff. . Yours very truly,
PUBLIC .SERVICE COMMISSION

"Girl of tho GoUlciv West"
Made doubly fascinating by (lie
elimination of the usual scenes wblcn
have made too many western pluys
more or less monotonous, "The Girl
ot.the Golden West," began Its show
ing at the Rlalto theatre yesterday
and was enthusiastically greeted.
In "The Girl of the Golden West,"
are brought in the strong, human
touches and odd romance of the fa-
mous Belasco stage, triumph.
1 First of all. "The Girl of the Golden
J West" has no Broadway cowboys, no
Indians, no running gun fights and no
iiiretense. It seems reully western.
and though it carries us back to tho
days when grandpa was a youngster,
still it is not difficult to "live" right
nlo'ng with the characters on tho
screen.
, This is a gambling story and the
incidents that lead up to the time
when the 'heroine (Sylvia Breamer)
nlavs cards with the sheriff (Russell
' Simpson) for the life of the bandit
she loves (J. warren K.erriganj unu
the action during the tense moments
of the game are handled with the
finesse of a real cinema artist. Rose
mary Theby as Nina also merits praise
for her several important bits In the
production.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9. The ad

put and approved by President Cool
idge Is regarded by him as contem
plating the maintenance of the integ

emergency fleet corporation as a sub
ordinate agency.
The resolution now before the
board and placing It under the fleet
corporation does not, in the opinion of
the president, divest the board of any
of its final authority. The head of
the fleet corporation, he holds, would
simply act as a manager under orders
of the board.
