 CITY OFFICIALS ACT
 The city commission of Sheffield has addressed communication to the Ala bama public service commission in Montgomery, urging that the commits sion hold a session in this city for the purpose of investigating the rates be- ing charged by the Sheffield company in Sheffield for lights and water. The step was taken by the city commits sion as a result of the general com plaint being made by local citizens against the unreasonable charges, which it is alleged are being made by the local company for lighting and water service.
 Recently the Sheffield company raised it's rates from 12 cents to 14 cents per kilowat for lights and re- duced the discount allowance from ID to per cent; maintenance charge on meters was increased about 33 per cent and charges for water service has been similarly increased.
 The city commission claims to be without authority in the matter due to the terms of the franchise, hence the state commission has been asked to in- vestigate the question of rates, which involves the franchise or contract, which was entered into by the city.
 Henry Parsons of New York, presi- dent of the Sheffield company, is on a business visit to Sheffield. He is accompanied by J. H. Pardee, head of the J. G. White Management corpora- tion, which has charge of the opera tion of the Sheffield company proper ties here. The visitors will be here several days.
