GEORGETOWN — The first

of three ocean-going freighters which arrived in Georgetown Christmas Day, cleared port at 5 a.m. Sunday. The Norwegian freighter “Hera" left here for Mulgrave. N.S., where she will top off her cargo of pulpwood.

The loading of the Hera start- ed Friday morning. and contin- ued ln sub-zero weather and by Saturday evening longshoremen had stowed 550 cords of sap- pealed pulp logs in her holds

om the Henderson Lu m b e r Company in Georgetown.

With harbor pilot. James Lle- wellyn conning her. the He ra broke her way through the light ice which had formed during the past several days, under calm sub-zero temperatures. Mr. Llewellyn. made no attempt to return to Georgetown by the pi- lot boat but continued on to Mul- grave with the Hera.

At noon Sunday the Finnish

wife. Joann. is at his

side.

Maritime Electric Announces

Domestic Power Rate Decrease

Officials of the Maritime Ei- ectric Co., Ltd., have announced that starting with the first me- ter reading after Jan. 31. I964. a new rate reduction will go in- to effect. approved by the Pub-l lic Utilities Commission. for all,‘ their domestic customers. l Applying on all power used‘ over the basic 200 'lowatt* hours, the decrease is one-half hour. fromr two and one-half cents to two‘ cents. The new rate will be ef- fective for all Maritime Elec- tric's customers in the province. who consume more than 200 kil- owatt hours.

The officials p oi nt out that throughout its history when- ever the company has been able to in w e r its cost for manufac- turing p o w e r. its customers have benefited by a rate reduc- tion.

Pointing to the lower rates that the firm has been able to bring into effect over the years. the officials noted that in Octo- ber-l955. any ‘customer using 400 kilowatt hours of power had a monthly charge of $15.96. but under the new rate the monthly

pany officials were faced with the problem of additional gen- erating capacity to meet the continually growing demand for electricity in the province.

SUBMARINE CABLE

Two methods were consider- ed: a submarine cable linking the local system to the New Brunswick -— Nova Scotia grid, or an additional generating unit in the Charlottetown steam plant. The economic study did not show any obvious advantage for either of these alternatives —- in other words. one plan could provide power as cheaply as the

her.

With no definite financial vantage it time a matte reliability of supply. and it was decided that a generating source here on the Island was more re- liable than a source supplied by ii submarine ca le.

There are many submarine cables which have been install- ed during the past few years which are giving excellent ser- vice. There ave been others, particularly in areas of heavy ice conditions. where the results have been far from satisfactory. Accordingly. the decision was made to proceed with an exten- sion to the plant in Charlotte- town.

Liberian freighter, "San John P." is also berthed at the same r wharf.

It is expected that loading op- erations on board the San John P. will get underway this morn- ing, and the agents have lined up a part cargo of 625 cords of sap-pealed pulp logs for her. On completion at Georgetown she will then sail for Baddeck. N.S. to complete her cargo.

Loading of the Atlas will get underway immediately follow- ing the finishing of the San John P. The third freighter is sched- uled to take on some 2.200 cord of rozzed pulp logs, and will then shift to Souris where sh i; will take on an additional 1.100 cords.

The cargo of all three ships are consigned to European in- teresls.

The reason for such a large unit in relation to the existing ones was to have a machine with a high temperature and pressure to provide a more eco- nomical operation. It has been
