EVIDENCE AIL' IN
Ofl UTILITY Wi
Hearing of the case Involving
accounting practices of public
utilities, was concluded before
Charles A. Thomas, public utili
ties commissioner, Wednesday.
The complaint was filed by the
Oregon merchants utility bureau,
which contended that any loss suf
fered through utility merchandis
ing practices should be charged di
rectly against the stockholders of
their companies instead of passing
rt on to the consumers of energy.
The independent merchants
handling domestic electrical and
gas appliances alleged that they
were operating at a disadvantage
due to the purchasing power of
th utilities engsged in a similar
business. -
Information brought out at the
hearing indicated that all utility
companies engaged id retailing
these electrical and gas appliances
lost money during the year 1931.
