(b) The Sugar Branch Office whichoriginally granted the base shall contactthe Sugar Branch Office In the area Intowhich the veteran desires to move hisestablishment in order that a c6hiparableestablishment in that area may beselected.

(1) If the base of the comparable eg-tablishment In the new area Is the sameas or greater than the veteran's base, per-mission to move Into the new area maybe granted. However, the veteran's baseshall not be Increased to that of the com-parable establishment In the new area,nor to the maximum base establishedunder the order If the veteran does nothave the maximum base.

(2) If the base of the comparableestablishment In the new area is lessthan the veteran's base, unless the vet-eran is willing to have his base reducedto ,that of such comparable establish-ment, permission to move the veteran'sestablishment into the new area shallbe dehied.

CLINTON P. ANDERSON,Secretary of Agriculture.

Rationale Accompanying AmendmentNo. 5 to Revised General RationOrder 18Present regulations. The present reg-

ulations permit a veteran who has beengranted a base or an adjustment In baseto apply to the Branch Office for permis-sion to move his'establishment.

Proposed amendment. This amend-ment provides that a veteran who has

3272


been granted a base or an adjustmentin base may apply in writing to theSugar Branch Office for permission tomove his establishment. The amend-ment also sets forth certain criteriawhich the Sugar Branch Office shouldfollow in determining whether or not aveteran should be permitted to move hisestablishment.

This amendment defines District Of-fre and Sugar Branch Office to mean aBranch Office of the Sugar RationingAdministration, Department of Agricul-ture.

Reasons for amendment. While it isgenerally desirable to permit a veteranto move his establishment should hewish to do so, fair dealing and admin-istrative necessity require that certainuniform standards be employed to deter-mine under what conditions permissionto move an establishment will be grantedor denied. Thus, in the case of the vet-eran who desires to move his establish-ment to an area where a comparableestablishment has a higher base, per-

-mission to move will be granted but theveteran's" base will not be increased tothat of the comparable establishment.Nor will it be-increased to the maximumpermitted under the order if the veterandid not obtain the maximum for Ins es-tablishment prior to moving his estab-lishment. It is not administrativelyfeasible to permit the constant changingof bases which mould result if such up-ward adjustments were permitted. Fur-thermore, since the veteran could ascer-tain beforehand the amount of base oradjustment in base he would be grantedfor any area in which he might desireto open his establishment, he Is not be-ing- treated unfairly when required toretain the base or adjusted base he ob-tained for an establishment in the areaof his choice even though it is less thanthat of a comparable establishment ina nevw area, or" less than the maximumpermitted under the order.

Fair dealing requires that a veteranwho has obtained a base or adjusted basefor his establishment in the area of hischoice and then desires to -move his es-tablishment to aii area where the baseof a comparable establishment is lower,not be permitted to move unless he Iswilling to have his base reduced to thatof the comparable establishment.Otherwise, a veteran could open anestablishment in an area where he couldobtain a larger base than that of a com-parable establishment in the area inwhich he actually intended to operate hisestablishment after obtaining such largerbase. If he were then permitted to moveto this area where the comparable estab-lishment had a lower base and retain hishigher base, he would gain an undeservedbusiness advantage over the comparableestablishment and the purpose of thecomparable establishment test would bedefeated.

This amendmeit also makes it clearthat themovng provisions of Third Re-vised Ration Order 3 and Revised Gen-eral Raticn Order 5 do not apply to themoving of veterans' establishments.

Since former District Offices and SugarBranch Offices of the Office of Price Ad-ministration are now designated asBranch Offices of the Sugar RationingAdministration, Department of Agncul-

FEDERAL REGISTER

ture, this amendment redefines DistrictOffice and Sugar Branch Ofilce to con-form with the changed designation ofthese offices.[F. R. Doc. 47-4811; FIled, May 20, 1947;

NoIcE OF APPLICAIOI.

MAY 14, 1947.Notice Is hereby given that on October

16,1946, Equitable Gas Company (Appli-cant), a Pennsylvania corporation havingits principal office in Pittsburgh, Pann-sylvania, filed an application with theFederal Power Com-ission for a certifi-cate of public convenience and necessitypursuant to section 7 of the Natural GasAct, as amended, authorizing Applicantto construct and operate the followng- de-scribed facilities subject to the jursdic-tion of the Commission: L

A comnnection with meter gates and fittingson Its 16-inch gas tansmizzloA pipe line foremergency use In the tranzportation and saleof natural gas to Waynesburg Home GasCompany, Waynesburg, Pennsylvania.

Applicant states in Its application thatat the present time it is operating oneconnection with said Waynesburg HomeGas Company which connection is notadequate to transport the gas needed fordistribution. Applicant also states thatsaid Waynesburg Company desires saidadditional connection as an emergencystand-by facility, and m order to preventthe pressure drops in Its system which ithas experienced on peak winter days. Inaddition, the Waynesburg Companystates that the existing pipeline is nor-mally used as a discharge line-to a fieldcompressor station which it uses to pumpgasjrom field gathering lines connectedto Its own gas wells. The WaynesburgCompany anticipates that withdrawals ofgas from Applicant through the existingpipe line connection during periods ofpeak winter demand may make the pres-sures in the existing line so high ag toretard the procurement of gas from itsown wells. The said Waynesburg Com-pany would, If authority is granted to theApplicant, construct approximately 3,150feet of 2-inch pipe line to connect withApplicant's system at a point approxi-mately five miles south of the presentemergency connection.

Applicant further states that Waynes-bbrg Home Gas Company is the sole dis-tribution company for the town ofWaynesburg, Pennsylvania, containingapproximately 1,900 customers; thatmost of said customers are residentialand utilize the gas for home heating;that there are some commercial custom-ers but no Industrial users in Waynes-burg. Applicant estimates that theamount of gas delivered through the pro-posed emergency connection to theWaynesburg Company would be approxt-mately the same amount as presentlydelivered through the existing connec-tion. Applicant states that the Waynes-burg Company expects some normal loadgrowth in the next few years.

Applicant states that the total over-allcost of the proposed facility is $688, andwould be financed from available com-pany funds.

IOn Oct o r 23, 1946, the Commis-Iongranted temporary authorization for a cer-tificate of public convenience and necassityconcerning the facilities dencribed herein.
