NEW DEAL FOR ! UTILITY RATES Commission Chairman Says Utility Rates Must Be Lowered Indianapolis. Sept 26.-- IU.R) —A new deal program of utility rate; making in Indiana was announced ■ today by Perry McCart chairman of the Public Service Commission. "Utility rates must be fixed down to the level of what the service is wortli at what the people can afford to lay," he told the Public Service Company of Indiana. "Rates must be such that the people desiring service can afford to use it.” McCart's announcement came as tlie hearing was resumed on efforts to obtain lower rates from the Publice Service Company of Indiana. Sherman Minton, public counselor ot tile conuuisswu. tiled the petition which re<|iiested the utility to show cause why rates throughout its entire south system should not be lowered. Company attorneys were denied a motion to dismiss the suit after contending that the burden of proof was not upon them but upon the petitioners. , They presented operation costs in an effort to prove that their rates should not be cut. Observance of the NRA code for utilities will add $265,146 annually to the payroll, L. B. Schiesz, controller ot the company, told the commission yesterday. Perry McCart. chairman of the commission, aroused by what he termed the "antagonistic attitude” shown by utility representatives, admitted he expected NRA conditions to increase operating costs but suggested the company also figure on increased revenue expected to result from general business improvement as other workers obtain the benefits of the recovery program. Schiesz and A. W. Hebei, attorney for the company with whom McCart had engaged in a heated argument at the opening of the hearing, explained the company had drawn up cost operation charts with an effort to stay out of the field of estimated revenues. Other cost increases cited by Schiesz included higher property taxes and a state gross income tax of $71,812.57. The utility serves more than 270 cities and towns throughout southern Indiana.

The ROMANS had a phrase for it“CAVEAT EMPTOR,” meaning ‘Let the buyer beware.’ This wasn’t used as a bit of balm to ease the ancient conscience; nor, yet, was it placarded in the booths and stalls of the market-place. It was a piece of every-day knowledge, horn of dear-bought experience. A shopkeeper knew little about the source of his merchandise. This tunic he bought from a trader, who said it came from Byzantium. So he sold it as the latest Byzantian style. The trader told him the dye was pure Tyrian—it wouldn’t fade. So he sold it as Tyrian dyed. But the buyer knew the responsibility was his own. If he guessed wrongly, or his judgment was poor, it was his hard luck. Today, fortunately, there are safer guides than tbe blanket-warning to “let your eyes be your market” These guides are the newspaper advertisements. In this newspaper, they are a daily catalog of the best values in town—signed by responsible firms. If the goods are not all that is claimed for them, their sponsors would need to “beware.” For no business can thrive on a onetime sale, or on dissatisfied customers. A signed advertisement is, in away, like a promissory note. The advertiser has made a statement, and affixed his signature as a sign of good faith. So, read the advertisements before you start out on a buying-trip. Make this a daily habit, and see how much you save ... in time, in temper, in money, in shoeleather. f
pathos, full of humor and tragedy, masterful in character analysis, charming In description and thrilling In dramatic action.” 1 will give "My Old Kentucky Home” at the church this Sunday evening, October Ist, at 7:30 o'clock. 1 extend a cordial Invitation to all to hear this address. - ■ o - Grub Stake Agreement Filed Helena, Mont.
