REPORT RATES VARY GREATLY Wide Variations Are Found In Electric Power Rates Washington. Feb. 4 —(U.R) —Wide variations, ranging as high as 343 per cent in some cases, in electric power rates charged tlie public by municipal and private utilities were reported todav to the senate by the federal power commission. The commission, acting under a senate resolution, launched a nationwide survey during the last six months into residential electric rates in 191 cities of 50.000 or more population, which covered 49 per cent of power consumeis in the nation. The lowest rates in cities of 100.000 or more were in Cleveland and Tacoma, Wash., the highest in Miami and Jacksonville, Fla, and Yonkers. N. Y. In cities from 50.000 to 100.000 the lowest rates found were in Cleveland Heights, 0.. Holyoke. Mas-s.. Lakewood. O„ Madison. Wis.. and Springfield. BL. the highest in York. Pa.. New Rochelle, N. Y.. Mt. Vernon. N. Y. and

Atlantic City, N. J. The rates were calculated in live categories. 15, 25, 40, 100, 250 and 500 kilowatt hours. Although the commission found that differences in rates were , often justified, it upbraided utilities for their “amazing and complex-' rate schedules, which, it ! said, defied classification. Presenting what it termed a ‘ “snapshot" ol the late form situ- ! ation, the commission asserted . that one hamlet of 27 persons had 11 different rate schedules, while another company serving 58.000 . customere reported 530 different types of bills. The survey, which was con- , ducted by William E. Mosher, di.(rector, end commission viee-chair- , man Basil Manly, disclosed that in . the six months prior to Jan. 1. ~ i 1935 electric plants in 60 of the j cities reduced rates, meaning an- ! nual savings; of $5,640,000 to the sma'l consumer. f The commission asserted the I survey was not an investigation to j determine reasonableness of rate I charges but that it was an "impartial study" since private and mu- ) nlclpal utilities bad given "full j cooperation to it" by snpplvin" statistics and checking their accuracy.
