Another rehearing oftherateease of the Pacific Telephone & Tele graph company veat yesterday ord ered by the p ublic service com mission. The resolution was sign ed by all members of the commis sion and fixes tho date for Mon day, October 2, ?t the commis sion's Portland effica at th Mult nomah court nous-?. The rehearing will not interfere with the litigation recently launched in the rate controversy in the federal court in Portland. Similar To Oirry-Resolution The resolution adopted today is similar to that introduced by Commissioner H. tl. Corey on August 14, excai t that the reso lution yesterday declares positive ly the belief of the commission that the telephone rates now in effect in the state "are unreason able and many of them unjustly discriminatory and that during all of the time slnoe the last named date the service of the said tele phone company has been and still is inadequate." The Corey resolution pointed out that results of the increased rate order seemed to warrant an other investigation. McCoy Introduces Resolution Another minor difference- is that the Corey resolution fixed the date of rehearlf.g for Tues day, October 17. The resolution todav was Intro duced by Chairman McCoy. The resolution points out that since the inauguration of the present rates more than 18 months ago sufficient time has elapsed to determine within a reasonable degree of accuracy what the ac tual results to the telephone com pany and to the public have been by the enforcement o' the order and the collection of the increas ed rates. Further resolutions de clare that popular disaDDroval has been so pronounced that two mem bers'" or the commission" were re called' at the election of May 19, and that the new members elect ed at that Unv9 have, pledged themselves to do all in their pow er to secure a reduction. Mention is made of th numerous cou plaints that have reached the com mission relative to the high rates. Evidence lHrused The resolution continues to the effect that "the-new members of the commission have carefully read and considered all that por tion of the testimony taken in the case that was brought for the pur pose of settiu a-ide said rate's as prescribed oy order 89, which their predecessors in office have seen fit to have extended from the stenographic not-?s, and have also carefully examined the exhibits in said rehearing of the case, and the briefs of the attorneys for the respective parties" and that "from such examination and oth er investigation, they 1 elieve that the present telephone rates and changes were at the time them were adopted y this commission, to wit, the first day of March, 1921, ever since have been and now are unreasonable." Further it is asserted that the service continues to be inadequate. The rehearing jvIH cover rates, tolls, charges, regulations, prac tices, and service. chise to a public utility, according to an opinion of Attorney oeni Van Winkle, written for the com mission here. Tho nnk Hm a commission - J " . may Interfere Is wncn. as a result of the franchise, the service fur nished by the utility is unsafe, inadequate, unreasonable or un justly discrimnatory. Such a franchise is further sub ject to the jurisdiction of the com mission in the matter of providing regulations relating to crossings and other things necessary for Ihe safety of the public and for the providing of adequate service by the utility. , SEAVEY BELL INSURANCE AGENCY 412 Oregon Bldx-.
