FIVE MAJOR GOALS W. C. Auld, manager of the island Telephone Company, said the new general tariff means the company will spend an average of $1,700,000 in 1965, 1966 and 1967 in an effort to fulfill five major goals. The five major goals are; the installation of a telephone in every household in the prov- ince; a reduction of the number of subscribers sharing party lines in rural areas; speeded up dial conversion to make all telephones dial type by 1975 with direct distance dialing - by then or sooner; free mileage areas to the densely populated communities around Charlotte- town and Summerside, available aneaiel mileage charges in rur-. al line extension in sparsely pop- jtlated areas. Mr. Auld said that despite the reductions. in operating costs operating revenues have gone down at a greater rate. | The Commission said in its re- port: “Upon study of the evi- dence, we are satisfied that there can be no doubt that a rate increase is now warranted if the applicant is to be enabled to draw to itself that confidence of_theinvesting public which is necessary to enable it to pro cure investment capital in a world which offers so many op- portunities for sound invest- ments.” eau Constantly rising operation ex- penses, including salaries and materials, and the necessity of satisfying public demand for better service with more mod- ern equipment, were cited as reasons for the increased rate request. kk wk wk Ke He HR OH OF A WILLING WOMAN -A RICH ‘ECCENTRIC - A STARTING TODAY SCHEMING HEIR SHOWS 2:30-7-4 ADULT i m MICHAEL RELPH ano BASIL .DEARDEN'S erooucnon FROM THE NOVEL BY CATHERINE AMLEY |several volumes of poetry. is a member of the Royal Som mission’ on Bilingualism and- Bi-! culturalism. awards; “| Psychology has-been slow to le an awesome task: find- ing an explanation for the The $15,000 created! centuries-old -battle between two_years. ago from a $600,000, p _and style..But here gift to the Canada Council ~ the| at last is “the theory of: the Molson- Foundation, seek to rec-| shifting erogenous zone” to oe rm. ae pa sasok give you a revealing ion a nition encoura; ou service to the Canadian cultural) iid ore ‘shone, hie we next!
