Insist City
Fight Water
Rate Case

Demand that the city become
complainant and provide funds in
a court fight against the Indian
apolis Water Company and the
public service commission, was
served on Mayor Reginald H. Sui
Ivan today.
The step was taken subsequent to
recent filing of suit by the Rev.
Virgil Davis, Negro minister, in
superior court two in which return
of several millions in alleged over
charges by the company and
abolition of the public service COM
mission is sought.
The demand presented at Sulli-
vans office by Harrison White, at
torney, was signed by Mrs. Mar
garet Holman, and asked reply
from the city by Sept. 5.
In the writ, Mrs. Holman set
out that should the city not take
part as co-plaintiff in the litigation
she will file suit. Temporary at
torneys' fees and money for prose-
cution and appeal of the case, if
necessary, is requested of the city.
The original action claimed that
the 1913 boost of water rates by
the commission is illegal and these
alleged overcharges should be re-
turned to the city treasury.
