The Tidewater Power company was the only big corporation seeking re Hef Wednesday through the corpora tion commission. Its request Was for a charge of $1.75 per thousand . feet for gas and to increase its trolley car Charges to and from Wrightsville Beach, although the desired price was riot disclosed in the request filed, merely asking permission to raise the rate to a living wage. In advices from Raleigh it was stated that, the Tidewater people have an advantage over the -Carolina Power 'and Light .company, of Raleigh, and the Public JXiUtilitios, of Charlotte, each having njaroreiecxric- yxrwwr :m aounaance. The commission on Wednesday per mitted these two Companies to raise their gas rates, Raleigh from $1,56 to $1.65, and Charlotte from $1.25 to $1,45. The Raleigh rate will range all the way from $1.65 for the first 28'' I 5,000 feet to $105 for all Over 20,000 .35 j feet. .E5 It should be noted that the Tide . 60 i water, while asking permission to 40 l raiser the rate to $1,75, gives 10 cents off for payment of bills by the tenth of the month, which gives a rate of $1.65, The statement as printed yes terday to the effect that the raise was not controlled by the commission was erroneous. .
