LIBERTY C0.'S RATES WILL REMAIN SAME DURING APPRAISAL

In the matter of the petition of the Llbefty Light and Power company for authority to increase its rates in the towns of Liberty, Boston and West Cclege Corner, the Public Service Commission of Indiana has ordered that no change in the rates he made pending the report of the examination and audit of the company's boots and records. In the event the audit reveals that the company is entitled to temporary relief in the way of increased rates, such relief will be provided. The commission has Instructed its auditing staff to examine the books and records of the Liberty Light and Power company and submit its report by Sept. 1. The engineering staff of the commission is instructed to make an evaluation of the company's properties and make its report on or before Oct. 1. This evaluation will form the baBis for determining a definite schedule of rates for the communities served by the company. . Hearing Held July 26. A public hearing on the petition filed by the Liberty Light and Power company was held in Liberty, July 26. Counsel for the towns of Liberty, Boston and West College Corner asked for a continuance on the ground of insufficient time to make proper investigation. The attorney representing Boston also moved that that town be not included in a uniforn scale of rates and charges. The commission was also asked to make a complete evaluation of the company's property to be used as a basis for rate consideration. It was

, ascertained at me UDerty neanng V, that the eomiianv'a ernsa Inoomn for

1919 was approximately $7,300 hut that the increased cost of electrical energy at that time would exceed the com' pany's gross income. Don't Think It'll Be Crippled. It is the opinion of the commission, however, that the company will not be crippled by continuing under present rates until sufficient time is had for an audit. The Liberty Light and Power company purchases its electrical energy from the Richmond Municipal plant. Under the new schedule of rates recently established for the Richmond plant it is said that the Liberty company will have to pay approximately 50 per cent more for its current.
