Business Briefs A Personal Letter; From Atlantic Electric

By JOSEPH R. ZELNIK Atlantic Electric’s 65.000 Cape May County customers arc receiving personalized letters telling them how many kilowatt hours they used in 1982. what it cost, and where that money went: fuel. 40 percent; taxes 17 per cent; supplies. 13 percent, payroll, 9 percent; dividends to stockholders. 8 percent; interest charges. 7 percent; and depreciation of equipment. 6 percent

The letter also includes a thank you for prompt payment (if you paid prompt ly) and a pitch for the budget program (if you're a big user), but no tissues to wipe the tears from your eyes. Big fuss over what percent of new housing is ’manufactured" in a factory vs. housing built on site. Manufactured Housing Instutute says its responsible for 36 percent;

home builders says its real ly 22 percent because the institute doesn't include condos or new homes built on lots owned by the buyer Institute responds it could have claimed 50 per cent if it had included panelized and modular housing. Nobody disagrees on one thing: manufac lured homes are getting more popular Guarantee Bank is administering the Elmer Smith Scholarship Trust funds left by the South Seaville native to be used for higher education of residents of Avalon.
