To go in effect June 18th, but there is q
strong likelihood that the measure will

ments of the attorneys. Ii the COM
mission sustains the legislature 10 re-
ducing the rate. then the matter will be
taken 10 the Supreme Court. Important

have been working hard to have the
Chnrchman bill become Law in reality.

is no telling just when it will become ct
feclive. The Churchmsn bill says that
