UTILITIES CASE
Commissioner Will Act
Against Man Who Denied
Showing Letter.
CUTHBERTSON BITTER
ASSaiLS Defense Practice of
Not Telling Truth
at Inquiry.
CUTHBERTSON BITTER
BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY

For the first time in the history
of the public service commission, q
utilities witness is to be cited fol
perjury by the commissions own &C
ton.
Commissioner Harry K. Cuthbert-
son is the pioneer instituting the
proceedings.
He announced, following the
hearing in the former Goodrich
telephone properties case this morn
ing, that he intends to ask Attor-
ney-General James M. Ogden to
bring a perjury charge against v.
P. Russell, Columbus, o., defense
witness for the utilities.
II intend to checkmate all at
tempts of utilities witnesses coming
before this commission and failing
to tell the truth" CuthbertSon de-
clared. This commission can not
function without facts, and wit
nesses for these companies have
done everything in their power to
keep us from getting at them"
Denies Showing Letter
The particular point in the Rus
sell testimony, which will furnish
the basis for the perjury charge, was
denial by Russell that he had
showed a certain letter in evidence
to commission accountant week
ago.
Evan Williams, the accountant,
is scheduled to take the stand to
testify that Russell did show him
the letter in the Office of the Mid
west Supply Company at Warsaw,
when Russell still was employed by
them.
The letter was an order to credit
the Interstate Telephone and Tele-
graph Company, holding company
for thirteen operating companies
and Recommendations, Inc, a
toll company, with SAL, 200 on the
Midwest books.
Seeks to Show Padding
In instituting the suit Cuthbert-
son is seeking to prove that the
holding company piled up profits
from subsidiaries and service COM
panieS by salary collections, cost
plus percentages, and managerial
and legal services which were large
ly fictitious and built up by book
keeping.
Today's hearing got under way
when Russell was recalled to the
