Atlantic Provinces Win Delay In Telegram Boost

Hearing ls Deferred To Sept. 3

By JOHN beBLANC Caadisn Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CF) - Atlantic pro-

vinces governments Tuesday won a dc-ferment in the railway com- panics' attempt to revise the do- mestic telegraph rate structure, and at the same time the com- panics were denied temporary rate increases.

The board of transport com- missionc-rs. at the end of a one- day hearing. deferred further sessions on the application until Sept. ii. The railways wanted pro- posed new rates to begin taking effect Sept. 1.

The changes. estimated by the railways to yield them an addi- tional 32,160,000 a year. are being fought by the four eastern pro- vluces. upon which they would hear most heavily. This is be- cause the charges sffectlng these provinces are lower than the rest of Canada generally. and the rail- ways want to equalise tolls across the country.

PREPARE CASE

The Maritime; transportation commission, representing the At- iantlc governments, called for adjourn m e n t of the hearings after completion of the compa- nies' evidence Tuesday. to obtain time to prepare a case oppogln. the changes.

It was the only body appearing against the proposed revision.

The railway companies first ob- jected to the adjournment and then said that. if one were to be granted, they should be per- mitted interim hoists final disposition of the applia- IOI1.

They proposed that this take one of two forms:

I. A boost - of unspecified amount-in ratss trader the 30- sent structure.

2. Pu 'sslon to put into effect Sept. I the screened "stage one" of their proposal.

This would involve increases averaging 12 per cent for the At; iantlc area and about 1! per cent for Canada generally.

Their over - all plan involves putting the changes into effect for the scabos -1 provinces in three stages over two years. to lessen the immediate impact in the East. Eventually. the Atlan- tic increases would be about I per cent. against 15 per cent gen- eraliy.

TIME NEEDED

Maritime: counsel Frank D. Smith of Halifax. calling for do ferment of the hearings. said the proposed rates would hear "inset grievously” on the seaboard area and more time was needed to study the proposals.

They constituted the first change in the principle of tele- graph rates in many years and would cost the Atlantic provinces about 5730.000 a year. he said.

The proposed rates are based on s t r sight airline mileage. whereas railway witnesses said the existing system is a haphaan ard one that just grew up. The new arrangement is based largely on one in effect in the United States for about seven years.

Railway cxpcrts said the prtr posalg would eliminate anomalies and inequalities in the existing system.
