Richard J. Davis of New England Telephone & Telegraph testified at a Public Utilities Commission hearing that a new method for separating interstate from intrastate costs cuts Maine revenue by about 383000 dollars annually but wage hikes and toll revenue sharing changes will raise NET&T costs. Charles L. Dignam noted wage settlements add about 377000 dollars yearly. a new toll allocation may reduce Maine toll revenue by about 170000 dollars. The hearing considers NET&T rate adjustments of 432000 dollars annually in Maine, with a suspension through November 15 and proposed increases across 27 exchanges including 25 cents monthly for residents and 1 to 2 dollars for many business customers. Sanborn questioned rate application if interstate intrastate separations shift. Davis said reductions would narrow the intrastate versus interstate toll disparity.
