Public Utilities Commission to
Visit Various Plants of the
Kansas Natural.
WANT FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE
Information Will Be Obtained Before
Hearing of the Plea for Increased
Rates.

First hand knowledge as to the
needs of the Kansas Natural Gas Com
pany will be sought by the Kansas
public utilities commission before the
hearing of the application of the re-
ceivers for increased rates is heard.
The hearing has been set for May Is.
c. F. Foley of Lyons, one of the mem
bers of the state commission, and T.
J. Stricken, engineer, will make a tour
of the gas company properties in the
fields the first week in May.
Commissioner Foley is planning to
spend most of the week inspecting the
properties, including trip to the fields
and the fields to which it is proposed
to make extensions. Stricken, who
helped make the physical valuation of
the Kansas Natural properties before,
which resulted in a decrease in CAPT
talization from s22 100000 to $4,000
900, will check up the property with
the old valuation, and also value the
improvements made since that time,
and the proposed extensions and bet
terments.
The commission will ask the state
receivers appointed by Judge Thomas
F1annelly of the Montgomery county
district court to make itemized ac-
count of the extensions made in the
last year. and also just what extern
sions they have planned for the next
few years. In their application for in
creased rates, the receivers state that
in the next six years they propose to
spend 81 100000 for extensions and
betterments. The commissioners want
to know where. and when, and why,
and how.
An early decision will be made by
the commission, according to Judge
Foley. The commissioners will try to
have all the information possible when
the hearing opens, and will make
every effort to. consider and decide the
case Immediately
