Gas Rate Reduction

District ofhcials today were study
ing the ruling announced late yes
terday by Justice Jennings Bailey
OF District Court setting aside a
Public Utilities Commission order
which would have reduced the
Washington Gas Light Co.'S pri-
mary rate of return from 6.5 per
cent to SIS per cent for the rate
beginning last September /. The
reduction was estimated to save
CONSUMERS about $4,000 for the
year.
The PUG ordered the reduction
last November and the commissions s
order, which was to have gone into
effect that month, was suspended
by Justice r. Dickinson Let's of
District Court, pending outcome of
the appeal.
In his memorandum opinion yes
terday, Justice Bailey held that the
8 per cent allowed the company by
the PUG for cost OF common capital
stock was too low and stated: This
allowance Of 8 per cent is not sup
ported by any substantial evidence
and is arbitrary, unreasonable and
void.
Justice Bailey also declared he
found mo evidence in the record
justifying" the action of the PUG in
disallowing one-half of the gas
company's cost for legal services as
part Of its expenses.
Members of the Public Utilities
Commission and their counsel today
were studying the decision, but they
made no comment. 1t was pointed
out, however, the decision did not
change the present rates, since the
order already had been stayed by
