More than half of the increases would go for taxes. President Charles L. Brown emphasized that the changes are not "across the board" increases. "No basic residential or business rates are involved," he said. "These increases will only bring our earnings up to the minimum level the Commerce com­ mission found necessary in its order of Aug. 11, 1972. This order found that a return on the fair value of our properties of at least 7.33 per cent was fair and reasonable. However, by the commission's determination of fair value we are earning only 6.90 per cent. It is crucial that we maintain reliable telephone service in Illinois. To do this we must have adequate earnings." The tariffs are filed to become effective Dec. 22. Rate adjustments include monthly charges for residence ex­ tensions and residence Touch- Tone packages, foreign ex­ change (FX) lines, key telephone systems, business extensions, private branch exchange (PBX) equipment and terminals, Centrex service, and administrative and dor­ mitory service. The monthly charge for residence extensions would increase 20 cents, from 75 to 95 cents. Extensions on the two- line Family Plan would go from $1.45 to $1.85.

Route 120 McHenry HORNSBYf f a m i l y c c n t c r s -- - Daily 9-9 Sunday 9-6 check list for winterizing your car: 1. Check condition of tailpipe, hangers, and muffler. Fumes from a leaking muffler or exhaust pipe are a constant danger when all windows are closed during the winter months. 2. Fill the radiator with enough anti-freeze to protect your car against the lowest expected temperature in your area. 3. Adjust and reline brakes, if necessary. Brakes should be free of greasy deposits. 4. Test battery and have it charged or replaced, if necessary - it's less costly than frequent service calls. Battery power is greatly reduced in cold weather. 5. Be sure that windshield wiper blades are in good condition and do not streak. Be sure the windshield washer fluid level is full and will not freeze (by adding the proper anti-freeze). 6. Change to snow tires or reinforced chains if most of your driving will be off. main thoroughfares. Studded tires, preferably on all four wheels, will provide good traction and better braking on ice when temperatures are above 20 degrees F. v (Some states restrict use of studded tires to prescribed dates.) Regular tires will be adequate under most circumstances if tread is deep and if you carry strap-on chains or sand for emergen­ cies. 7.
