In the last several months rates have been increased to two other types of customers served directly by Ontario Hydro - retail customers in rural areas and industrial consumers. "The Commission is naturally concerned at the rise in costs, " Mr.Gathercole said, "and is doing every= thing it can to achieve economies and improve pro- _ ductivity; but present trends are of dimensions that' they cannot be absorbed by such processes . "Despite a relentless effort to cope with advancing | - prices for equipment, supplies and property and sal- | aries and wages, costs have moved irresistibly upward. Higher interest rates on borrowed capital, nearly double those of a dozen years ago, have been another inflationary factor. "Hydro has maintained a remarkable price stability over the last 15 years, largely by adoption of a var- iety of cost-saving procedures including the employ- ment of the most advanced scientific and technologi- cal techniques. " No increase in Hydro rates is expected in the im- mediate future according to Terrace Bay Township Clerk W. Hanley.
