Mr.. Symonds said he di-
rected Mr.. Corcoran, as general
counsel, to confer with the
commissioners to reiterate his
position on two key issues in
Midwestern's application for
authority to build a pipeline to
bring gas in from Canada:
l. Action by the commission
was necessary by November l,
or else the price of the Cana
dian gas might rise.
2. A rate of return of Z pei
cent-not 6H4 per cent. as rec
commended by the FPC staff
would be necessary for Mid
western to obtain financing for
the pipeline.
My Symonds did not men,
ton a third argument made by
Mr.. Corcoran, according to ac-
counts by Mr.. Kuykendall and
MI. Kline. They said Mr.. Cor
coran told them Tennessee
probably would divest itself of
control Of Midwestern and used
divestiture as an argument for
granting a 7 per cent rate of
return.
The commission approved the
pipeline and left the rate of
return open for decision later.
