Wheeling publisher N C Ogden testified before the Public Service Commission about utility regulation. He argued the commission touches every state unit and questioned a 12 cent gas rate, noting production costs have risen and suggesting gas could be traded across the continent, with rates cited for Wheeling versus potential California profits. He claimed gas stocks carry low risk, advocating a low eight to six percent return and limited stabilization funds.
