hearing that was to have been held
before representative of the state
public service commission in this city
Monday, July 28, received notice from
the secretary of the commission that
the hearing had been postponed until
Tuesday, August 5th.
No reason was given for the post
-ponement, but it is understood that
the commission put off the hearing
until after August I, the date on
which the Federal government re-
linquished all control of the tele-
phone lines, thus avoiding all ques-
tions as to the jurisdiction of the
commission.
Some time ago the commission is
sued an order permitting the Butler
and Rich Hill telephone exchange to
charge a toll for connection with Ger
tain rural lines. Mr.. Maxey, as at
torney for the Rural Telephone AS

ton will be heard at this trial as well
as several other matters of interest to
