Earlier, the City OF Detroit
Corporations Counsel's office in
a statement to FPC called the
Panhandle proposal "unconscion-
able" and declared that it would
inevitably lead to higher gas
rates" The City's brief said Pan
handles proposal contained dou-
bic talk, misleading statements
and false premises.
The County, in a statement
filed with FPC by the Prosecu.

Panhandle proposal would deny
adequate volumes of low-cost gas
to Wayne County consumers.

line has been largely paid for
ever the past IS years by Miehi-
