WHITBY sips Telegram Rate Boost Sanctioned By Board MONTREAL (CP)--Canadian National and Canadiari Pacific telecommunications "were noti- fied Tuesday that the board of transport commissioners has approved their request for an increase in charges for tele- graph messages in Canada. The board said the request had been approved since no ob- jection had been raised to the application the companies made Jan. 16 for an increase. The last increase in charges for general message traffic was in 1965. The rate increases, scheduled to go into effect today, will bring the companies jointly es- timated additional revenue of 13 per cent. Included in the changes is a new schedule of rates for press jaside the existing practice of will be a minimum charge cal- creased charges for telegraph- ing money, for telegrams tele- phoned to telegraph offices or picked up by messenger, and for telegrams sent.on a collect) basis. CHANGE PRESS SYSTEM The new system will put having sets of press rates ap- plying within different geo- graphical areas in Canada. The system of charges determined by geographical area was abandoned for general traffic in 1957 in favor of a system based on distances messages are transmitted. For press messages, there culated on message length of 100 words and transmission dis- tance of 250 miles--the same minimum mileage as proposed for general traffic. Charges for press messages, considerably lower than those for ordinary telegrams, were established in 1906. The only previous increase, in 1949, amounted to about 15 per cent. Under the new system, press rates will be one-sixth of the new rates for general traffic. Night press rates, lower under the previous system, will be equal to day rates. The two companies estimate they will obtain a total of $75,- 867 additional annual revenue from the new press rates. gece, wen "aesaees' Accountants Under Fire about 19 per cent. The over-all| revenue increase, including) ii si"tsnty agree R@-examine Responsibility companies which said it is re- quired to meet higher costs, in-| eluding wages. The changes in the general rate structure will base the minimum charge for a tele- ph message on 15 - word length instead of the present 10- word minimum. New charges also will be based on a minimum communication dis- tance of 250 instead of the pres- ent 125 miles. ABANDON DAY RATES The new scale will eliminate the present day-letter class of messages that have lower rates based on the idea they take second place in priority of ission behind ges gent at full rates. The communications compan- fes felt that due to automation, day letters now are transmitted as quickly as full-rate messages and their lower rates are im- practical. Special rates for night letters will be maintained, although they will be increased. Under previous basic rates, a telegram of 10 or fewer words sent the minimum distance of 125 miles cost 80 cents. Extra words cost four cents each. With a 15-word minimum, charges will start at $1.10 for messages sent up to a distance of 250 miles. There will be a charge of five cents for the next 10 additionai words and two cents for each word after th: at.

The Canadian | Institute of Chartered Accountants has ap- pointed a special six-man com- mittee to examine the auditor's role and to see what changes should be made, either through! new legislation or by adopting| new practices. One basic problem, says J. R. M. Wilson, CICA president, is that few people really know what a shareholders' auditor is supposed to do, and what lim- itations are put on his actions by law. "It may come as a surprise to a good many that the ma- jor role of the auditor is not to detect fraud," he said re- cently. HAS ONLY ONE JOB "On the contrary, he has only one job and that is to examine the financial statements of the company at the eo n4THE YE and tell shareholders whether or not they fairly present the position of thes company and the results of its operations. | "He is not even entitled to prepare the statements--these are prepared by the directors, responsibility to report on them." A. G. Watson, chairman of the special CICA committee, says it will be looking into these broad areas: 1. What the duties and re- sponsibilities of auditors' are and should be. 2. Whether an auditor should report on matters other than the financial statements, pos- sibly including an estimate of a firm's business policies. 3. What the federal and pro- vincial institutes, as governing bodies for the profession, should do to help improve the situa- tion. The CICA says there are sey- eral key areas affecting a shareholders' auditor's respon- sibilities that are not covered FOOD MARKET IN BAYVIEW WOODS SHOPPING CENTRE specifically by legislation.
