Potter Explains Action On Rates And Fees In Mississippi
Mississippi Attorney General Clayton D. Potter releases a public statement justifying his writ of certiorari challenging the Cumberland Telephone Company's rate increase granted December 9 1922 by the Railroad Commission. He argues the order is illegal and exorbitant, misuses funds, and disguises affiliated interests while detailing tax valuation shifts and faulty commission findings. The note calls for a fair return on investment and addresses service quality and party line complaints.
