C P fees questioned over charity charges to customers
The Maryland Public Service Commission order against Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Co. of Maryland is questioned as C P builds charity costs into customer bills. The Baltimore Sun says AT&T and its subsidiaries paid over 49 million in license fees last year used for charitable gifts and public image campaigns, with Maryland residents seeing about six dollars extra on a typical bill. The PSC barred such charges in 1980, yet the firms continue charitable spending from profits while customers pay.

Maryland and C P license fees questioned over charity donations
McEvoy of Maryland Water C&P confirms charity gifts are part of the license fee but denies share in the program. Regulators in other states have deducted AT T donations from license fees, while Maryland regulators have not required such documentation and C&P has had five rate increases since 1970.

At Ocean City Maryland the Republican and Democratic parties completed delegate selections for the national convention.

Democrats gave Carter six delegates and Jackson six with three uncommitted, despite a bid for Brown to receive one at large. challenges and rules disputes loom over the complex two ballot binding and the legality of the rules.
