HIGH COURT
SETBACK
D. Internatsonal News eervice

The Supreme Court today had
prescribed rules Of vast impor-
'tance in the fixing Of local utility
rates by State commissioners.
The high court, in two Signifi.
Cant decisions yesterday, in effect
declared that State commissions
can prevent juggling Of charges
between subsidiaries Of giant hold
ing companies to justify demands
for rate increases.
In both cases, one involving
telephone rates in Chicago and
the other gas rates in several
Ohio towns, the high court ruled
against the contentious Of the
utilities.
: The Illinois Bell Telephone
Company in Chicago, is a subsid1-
Ary Of the giant A. T. and T. Co.,
while the Dayton Power and Light
Company, figuring in the other
rcase, is a subsidiary Of Columbia
Gas and Electric Corporation.
! In holding that rates fixed by
the Illinois Commerce CommiS'
sion on Chicago telephones in
1928 were non-confiscatory, the
high court considered the charges
made by the A. T. and T. and
also the Western Electric Com
pany, another subsidiary.
The Dayton Power and Light
Co., q gas distributor, the court
pointed out, purchases gas from
an affiliated corporation. Both
buyer and seller are subsidiaries
<, Of Columbia Gas.
The Ohio Public Utilities Com.
mission held that the Dayton
Company was paying too much
for its gas from the Ohio Gas and
. Fuel Co., although the rate was
'. similar to that charged in other
! cities.
The court then considered the
p, leaSehold values Of the Ohio Fuel
. Co., although not directly in
volved in the rate case, as q means
! Of establishing proper operating
expenses for the company whose
: rates were under attack.
without saying what Is proper
charge, the court held that the
State commission was within its
. rights in holding that the Dayton
, Company was being charged too
much for gas by its affiliated
company.
