PHONE RATE ACTION
WAITS LAW STUDY
Modification in Courts of
Temporary Injunction
May Be Sought.

Dubious as to the existence of any
lOophole whereby it may resume con-
sideration of the proposal to reduce
& Potomac Telephone Co. without
judicial authority, the Public Utilities
Commission. 1t was indicated today.
probably will seek IL modification in
the courts Of the existing temporary
injunction preventing it from putting
into effect the lower rates ordered in
May, 1925.
The new rate case was abruptly
halted by the commission yesterday
in order to give Corporation Counsel
Francis III. Stephens an opportunity
to find, IL possible. some method to
combat the cOmpany's contention that
the commission would be acting
Illegally in proceeding with the hear
ing until the court has entered its de-
cision in the case now pending. unless
the existing injunction is modified.
AS Mr.. Stephens had given a similar
opinion In the Potomac Electric
Power Co. rate case In 1920. the com
mission is not inclined to believe that
he can can very easily reverse IL now
so as 10 take exception TO the com
pany's technicality.
At any rate, Mr. Stephens Is review
ing the case. preparatory to writing
an opinion for the commission. In
the meantime the commission will
mark time with the idea of basing its
future course on the corporation
counsel's recommendation.

Dora Marie Clayton, II years old,

the pretty Jungle boy he has prom

takes this possibility, into considera-

Il think writes Dora. that Jerry
Is q good name for a giraffe. 1t sounds

If it turned out girl. the name would

The result is ii decided setback for

previously had l0l seats. Although
the strongest party in the house. the
Liberals still are without a majority
over all the other parties.
No public announcements have
been made by either Premier Meighen
Or former Premier King on the Situa-

Mr.. Meighen has summoned MEM

the resignation OF his government.
Should Mr.. Meishen resign. Gov.
Gen. Lord Byng would call upon Mr..
