First Brief
In Telephone
Case Is Filed

The first brief in the telephone
rate rehearing was filed with the
public service commission this
morning by Edward M. Cousins
representing the Oregon Telephone
federation, Oregon States Caterers
association, Oregon State Grange,
Oregon State Farm bureau. Port
land Apartment House association
and the Housewives council Of
Portland.
The brief covers 81 printed
pages and attacks both the fair
ness of the rate base fixed by the
commission for the Pacific Tele-
phone & Telegraph company and
ths reasonableness of the COM
missions order of last February
granting increases to the company
in this state.
The last telephone order of
this commission, no less arbitrary.
oppressive and burdensome than
its two professors, was the straw
that broke the camel's back, so far
as the people of the state OF Ore
gon are concerned" Counsin's de-
clares. 1T was and is looked up
on with distrust and misgivings. A
general disposition manifested it,
self throughout the state TO resist
it - ."
"The commission, he charges,
has not found, either in its or
der $50, nor in any preceding in
vestigation, that the rates for tele-
phone service which it prescribed
were reasonable and just to the
public, but, on the contrary, its
were directly wholly and
exclusively to the alleged need OF
the company for more money"
The city of Portland has until
Monday to file its brief under the
30-day limit agreed upon at the
close of the hearing, after which
the telephone company will have
20 days in which to file reply
brief and the city another two
weeks in which to file its rebuttai.

manded fulfillment of the peace
terms signed in Riga but he de-
clared Russia could also make de-
mands for fulfillment of the treaty
as Polish generals were support
