2 The SUN, Flagstaff. Arizona, Saturday. July 26. 1975 Increase May Be Low thinks you didnt like it. But if you're truthful, the hostess is delighted to let you take your portion home to enjoy for several meals.

WOOF WOOF IN PA. PHOENIX (AP) Projections of power usage that were too optimistic may cause a proposed rate increase of 23 per cent by Salt River Project to be less than is needed according to a report released Friday. The report was prepared for SRP by National Economics Research Associates Inc. of New York City. fall below expectations and not provide sufficient can cause staff projections on new customers and electrical by customers for 1975 and 1976 tended to be too high41 Ut As an example, the consulting firm pointed out that tial usage during the first five months of 1975 was 10 -IT" lower than expected.

Pectin SRP's board of directors will hold a special meeting on tu crease Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. in the Phoenix Civic Plazjnv increase only has to be approved by the board and does not the approval of the State Corporation Commission The consultant compared SRP with other utilities in An and in southern California. It noted that fuel costs and tomer accounts expenses were perhaps higher than they sh DEAR WOOF WOOF: I'm with you all the way. Many restaurants offer "a child's portion at a reduced price, of which many senior citizens also take advantage. DEAR ABBY: Im 40-years-oId, and I have a problem.

I always cry at sad movies, hymns, sad stories, parades, beautiful skaters and "The Star Spangled Banner. Soon my son will be getting married. The plans for the church ceremony sound just beautiful and end with my sons presenting me with a single red rose! The thought of it sends chills up my spine. I dont want to embarrass my son or husband by blubbering. Do you have any suggestions? (Im on hormones, so its not the menopause.) Thank you.

SENTIMENTAL IN ILLINOIS DEAR SENTIMENTAL: Being told in advance will prepare you for the presentation. I'm sure there won't be a dry eye in the house, so if you shed a tear or two, you won't embarrass anyone. Good luck and God bless. DEAR ABBY: My dad and I aie at a disagreement. He says I should not eat with my left hand.

lie says it is like eating peas with a knife. I like eating with my left hand, and I think I am old enough to know which hand I feel Mine comfoi table eating with. (I am 16.) Dad says the etiquette books say that you aie supposed to eat with your right hand. Who is right? Please hurry your answer. I hate eating with my light hand BUGGED DEAR BUGGED: I hope your dad is big enough to admit that he is wrong because he is.

Con's Wife Waiting But Considered Fair Game DEAR ABBY: I am married, although my husband is in prison. I do not go out with other men, and I dont entertain any, either. I live a clean, simple, uncomplicated life and am only trying to hang in there until my man comes home. My problem is that most men think that I am "fair game because 1 have no husband home. There are several in my neighborhood who insist that I am lonely, hungry for a man and desperately in need of the company of one.

I am tired of trying to straighten these guys out. Maybe if you print this, they will get the message. Just because a woman is alone doesn't mean that she is available. WAITING FOR MY MAN DEAR WAITING: Hooray for you! And I hope your man on the inside reads this. It will make his day.

God bless. DEAR ABBY: In fairness to the many older people like myself who cannot eat a large meal at one sitting and who eat many times a day (vhich the doctors assure us is healthier, anyway), I would like to present the side ot the majority on "doggie baggers. We enjoy restaurant eating every now and then, but my husband resents paying todays prices only to see half of my meal returned to the kitchen uneaten and then hearing me say, Im hungry" two hours later. Since asking for a doggie bag is fiowned upon in some restaurants, a simple resolution for me is to carry my own plastic bags. Yes, I do this in some friends homes, too.

If you ask for a -j; very smail portion, the hostess thinks you ate before you came. And if you leave half of it on your plate, she Customer accounts expenses should be studied and fuel en should come down as SRP brings more coal-burning general-! into operation, the report recommended. wrs The report also noted that two areas of cost over which management had no control had risen dramatically. Fuel cost had risen from 12.2 per cent of total expenses in 1970 to 24 5 cent in 1975, and interest from 11.3 per cent in 1970 to cent in 1975. 'Jper On rates schedules, the report suggested that SRP end its hang-up on trying to keep its rates lower than Arizona Pubh Service, Co.

APS, the report said, was subject to the regu latory lag and other vagaries inherent in commission rezu lation. 8U In comparing APS and SRP customers, the consultant found SRP customers used more electricity. While the report said differences in territory and APSs promotion of gas appliances may affect usage, "at least a portion of the higher usage may have been the result of lower rates of the Project over the years. The report also urged SRP to closely study a rate schedule based on peak-load pricing, which provides electricity at a lower rate during hours when electricity is not in great demand. Such a program might reduce the peak load and cut back generating requirements.

The rate increase is expected to produce an additional $37 million in revenue for SRP. Residential rates would be raised an average 21.1 per cent, with the intial charge for the first 30 kilowatt hours of service going from $2 to $2.65. Demos Mustering Vote Forces for Veto Override WASHINGTON (AP) House Democrats are expected to mount a major effort to override President Fords veto of a Education Appropriation Act. Rep. Daniel J.

Flood, chairman of the Appropriation Committees education panel, said that of all Ford vetoes this one stands the best chance of being overridden by the House. Ford's action on Friday was the latest in a series of vetoes of measures he contends are inflationary. The Democratic-doininated Congress has failed to override four earlier vetoes of major bills. However, the education appropriation was passed by well over the two-thirds vote that would be needed in each chamber to override. The votes were 370 to 42 in the House and 880 to 15 in the Senate.

This bill has wide appeal, Flood said. "The President's action is unfortunate since it comes as a setback to our educational institutions, if nothing else, in the form of delay. Every university, college, secondary and elementary school system is affected to some degree, as are its students by the postponement of the bills enactment. In vetoing the bill, Ford said it was "too much to ask the American people and our economy to bear. Fold said the issue was whether we are going to impose fiscal discipline on ourselves or whether we are going to spend ourselves into fiscal insolvency.

The President urged Congress to sustain his veto, so it would be possible to work together as we have before to achieve a reasonable compromise. Ford pointed out that this was the first regular appropriation bill passed by Congress this year. He said he has drawn the line on a budget deficit of $60 billion for fiscal 1976, while Congress wants to set the deficit level at $69 billion. Ford estimated that, according to Congress own budget scorekeeping, it now appears there may be an estimated possible deficit this fiscal year of more than $83.6 billion. As the House scheduled the override vote for Sept.

7, educational groups quickly called for passage over Ford's veto. i Your nr Daily! from the CARROLL RIGHTER INSTITUTE GENERAL TENDENCIES: A beautiful day for you to tune in on what is best for you in a spiritual way as well as more mundane matters. Make a point to go wheieyou Nixons Testimony To Remain Secret special prosecutors office, which is scheduled to close shop in September, and to talk about what should go into the units final report. Fie said there are between 200,000 and 250,000 pages of Watergate facts "already No One Budges In Stands on Oil Prices WASHINGTON (AP) Congress is giving little indication of support for what the White House calls President Ford's last effort at compromise on oil prices. "I didn't see any minds changed, said Sen.

Walter F. Mondale, after a Friday meeting at which Federal Energy Administrator Frank G. Zarb explained Ford's latest plan to more than a dozen senators. And while House Speaker Carl Albert called Fords plan "the best compromise we can get, key Senate Democrats called it unacceptable. "We can't compromise on price, said Sen.

Henry M. Jackson, chairman of the Senate Interior Committee, which has produced Democratic alternatives to Ford's plan of raising prices to force energy savings. The only authority for federal controls on oil prices expires on Aug. 31. Congress wants to extend that authority, but Ford has piomised to veto any such legislation unless it is accompanied by his plan to phase out price controls.

Unless Congress could override that veto, all price controls on oil would end on Sept. 1 and a sharp rise in gasoline prices could be expected almost immediately. Time is becoming a prime factor because Congress is scheduled to begin a monthlong lecess on Aug. 1. The new plan offered by Ford would roll back the price of "new U.S.

oil, now selling for about $13 a barrel, to $11.50. That figure would be allowed to rise by five cents a month until the $13.45 mark is reached within 39 months. Meanwhile, "old oil, now selling for a controlled average price of $5.25, cculd rise gradually to $13.45. At the end of 39 months, controls would disappear completely and the price of oil would seek its own level. "Old oil, which is about GO per cent of U.S.

pioduction, comes from wells drilled in 1972 or earlier. New oil is all other Horn domestic production. Zarb said the new Ford proposal would have no immediate impact on gasoline prices. He predicted that the entire phaseout program would raise gasoline prices by no more than seven cents by 1978; congressional Democrats said 14 or 15 cents would be a better guess. The Senate Democrats who have been most critical of Fords price-based energy-conservation plan say the new plan has little chance of becoming law, and several said Ford is only bluffing when he promises to let all price controls die unless Congiess appioves his phase-out plan.

WASHINGTON (AP) Former President Richard M. Nixons 11 hours of grand jury testimony tast month will remain secret, at least for the foreseeable future, says special Watergate prosecutor Henry S.
