(AP) The first phase of a Washington Public bervice Commission hearing on Pacific Power and Light Co.'s, request for increasing rates to its Washington customers was com pleted Monday with testimony of company witnesses. The company has- proposed to boost its rates an average of 10 per cent, increasing its annual revenue by an estimated $M5,000 annually. The Commission was urged by Dr. John-K. Langum, Chicago,, a company consultant, to weigh post war inflation pressures on utility property values in setting rates. "A fair value rate base, which gives substantial weight to the re production cost at current prices, Is necessary in the regulation of public utilities, the Indiana Uni versity economist said. Langum said PP&L should have at least a 6.6 per cent rate return on the realistic value of its prop erties if it is to be able to attract capital (or expansion programs and if it is to provide proper earnings for stockholders.
