Two hundred seventy dollars has been collected to date as the be ginning fund to fight the Tide Wa ter Power company rate increase approved by the State Utilities commission. Dan L. Walker, chairman of the Tide Water Rate Increase Protest ants' association, stated that this is partial payment from several town and a few private individuals. Beaufort's petition to the Util ities commission to set aside the or ilfer of July 28 which grants the increase and to hold a re-hearing was forwarded to the commission Monday. Eight Contentions The petition supported its appeal with eight contentions: That the Commission made no findings of fact as required by law. That the Commission made no findings of fact to support its or der; that the findings of fact and conclusions of law and the order of the Commission are not suppor ted by the evidence and are con trary thereto. That, as disclosed by the opinion of the majority of the Commission, the . order was made upon matters extraneous to the record, not intro duced in evidence. That the Commission failed to find that the earnings of Tide Wa ter Power company upon its rate structure prior to the order have been and would be sufficient to yield a net return of 6.89 per cent on the company's net investment. That the Commission failed to find that 6.89 per cent is a fair return on the investment of Tide Water Power Company. That the order is unlawful, un reasonable. unjustified and unwar ranted. That the final order and decision is not sufficient in detail to enable i the court of appeal to determine : the controversial questions present | ed in the procedure. $200,000 Rise i The Utilities commission ruled that in an order issued July 28 that Tide Water should be permitted to raise its rates by a total of $200, 000 a year. Tide Water had applied | for increases totaling $320,300. 1 The increase was approved by j Chairman &4?nl?y Winberae,- Com missioner Fred Hunter, and Com misrfoner Edward McMahon ? ov er strong dissents by Commissioner Joshua James and Commissioner Harry Wescott. Winborne, Hunter and McMahon insisted the com I pany needed additional income in j order to expand and improve its service. James and Wescott said the increase was unjustly imposed on ! the public and would result in Tide | Water receiving more than a rea I sonable rate of return.

Collectors Would Covet Two Books Owned by Dr. Maxwell Collectors of rare books would i covetously eye two small volumes in the possession of Dr. C. S. Max well, Beaufort. One book, Cheyne's Works, was published in 1814 and the other. Home on Ulcers, was published three years earlier, in 1811, or one year before the War of 1812. Both books are in excellent con dition, although the pages are brown and slightly brittle. Dr. Maxwell found them recently a mong a trunkful of books he had stored away. He said they were given to him long ago, but he could not recall by whom. Cheyne's Work is on The Diseas es of Children, Cases and Dissec tion!. It is volume II of Dr. John Cheyne's writings "containing Es say III on Hydrocephalus Acutus or Dropsy in \he Brain." Dr. Cheyne was a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. Like the 1811 volume, it was published in Philadelphia. The pub lisher was Anthony Finley and the printer. Merritt. Dr. Cheyne dedi cated his work to Mr. Charles Bell, a London surgeon. In the back of the book are list ed other works which Mr. Finley had on sale at his bookstore. "Practical Observations on the Treatment of Ulcers of the Legs" was written by Dr. Everard Home. The book owned by Dr. Maxwell is a first American edition. Dr. Home was "Surgeon to the Army and St George's Hospital" and dedicated his thesis "To His Royal Highness. Frederick, Duke of York and Albany, field marshal i and commander in-chief of His Majesty's forces." In a preface Dr. Home observed that ulcers on the legs deprived the army of many soldiers' services and since he had been closely in contact with the cases he felt it necessary to set down his findings. This book was published by Ed ward Parker, No. 178 Market street, Philadelphia, and the print er was William Brown, Church-al ley.

The meeting tonight is being held to allow an expression of in terest and pledge of cooperation to the present owners and their . proposal to reopen this plant," Mr. Walker announced. Holding the largest financial in terest in the cannery is Dr. Romeo A. Luongo of Philadelphia. Al- ! though he was affiliated with the j now bankrupt Beaufort cannery , he was not managing it nor did i he have control over its policies | or practices, explained the chamber j ! of commerce manager. Dr. Luongo plans to have local , residents as officers of the pro- j posed company, according to Mr. Walker. The chamber of commerce has I checked Dr. Luongo's references, the chamber manager continued, l and has found his reputation to be ! excellent. He is a graduate of the U'tiver* of Pittsburgh, is a cer ' * th"\ o> '"jvngoligist, and an assis tant pUMfcmor in the graduate I school of the medical college, ! University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Luongo must be assured of i local cooperation and interest and people should plan to attend the ; meeting tonight, Mr. Walker de j dared. CAP Offers Free Cadet Uniform^ Civil Air Patrol cadets of Bei u : fort-Morehrad squadron have t le j opportunity to earn free regulation uniforms, the North Carolina Wing of the CAP announced this week. The unit enrolling the most ca | dets during this month will be re warded by receiving free cadet out ! fits. Largest Squadron The Carteret county squadron is the largest senior member squad ron in the state, Adjutant A. D. Ellsworth reports. Since Cadet enrollment has just begun, it is possible that the local unit will win the uniforms, he added. The first cadet clau was held Sunday, Aug. 13. under the direc tion of Lt. Ralph Gardner who spoke on the history of the CAP and missions performed by local squadrdn of base 21, Beaufort, dur ing World War II. The present training program was explained as outlined by the United States Air Force.

Southern Bell Builds Beamed Tower at Fort Fisher George Eastman, chainian ol the Beaufort chamber of tominerce ship to shore radio telephone! com mittee, announced today that\ fish ermen of the central Carolina coast will receive improved ship-to-aiore radio telephone service this f^ll. A special tower, beamed to this area, is being erected at Fort Fish er, near Wilmington, and is ex pected to be completed and in op eration "by early fall," Mr. East man revealed. He was informed this week of the tower's construction by W. C. Darrow, commercial manager of the Carolina Telephone and Tele graph company First of Its Type This tower, the first of its type in the United States, will increase radio volume four times, enabling excellent contact with the Char leston operator, explained Mr. East man. The tower was developed by the American Telephone and Tele graph company in conjunction with Southern Bell which has the radio telephone franchise along this coast. If the tower is as successful as it proved to be on experimental grounds at Atlanta, similar towers will be erected in other eoastal areas. Mr. Eastman was told. Tested at Atlanta The specially-beamed apparatus was fully erected and tested at At lanta and then torn down and is now in the process of being re erected at Fort Fisher. A tower was not built here on the Carteret coast. Mr. Eastman stated, becauae there would have had to be a toll fee of $800 a month for Southern Bell to run a line this distance. It was found to be more advantageous to erect a specially beamed tower which is directed to the Pamlico. Core, antl Bogue Sound area. This service is being made a vailablc with the cooperation of Carolina Telephone and Telegraph company. Boatmen should make ap plication to offices of the Carolina Telephone and Telegraph company in Beaufort, Morehead City, New Bern, or other towns in this area served by Carolina. Special Crystal A special crystal is required in the radio set. No deposit is neces sary apd the boatmen pays only for the number of calls he makes per month. The charge is based on the shortest mileage distance between two points, according to Mr. Eastman. For example, a boat contacting another boat at New Bern would pay the toll charge only between here and New Bern, even though the call is handled through Char leston. Improvement of ship-to-shore ra dio telephone service for this area is the culmination of two years' work on the part of the Beaufort, Morehead City, and New Bern chambers of commerce, Mr. East man declared.
