The commission cited inadequate service in the local central office and ordered quarterly quality reports.

Rate hike cut sparks hearings on telephone charges
The commission suspended proposed rate increases filed January 28 and conducted hearings after customers complained of service issues. City officials urged findings to justify costs, citing Direct Distance Dialing in Jefferson City and a $3 million state-wide spend. The order directs separate tax billing and studies of zone, service, and installation charges within six months, with rate changes lifting revenues to about $4.4 million and a projected $1.19 million income, under an 11 percent allowed return on equity.

Creek drainage and neighborhood plan eyed by city housing board
Creek prospects and a neighborhood development near the National Cemetery dominated a Housing Authority board meeting. Director Ted Herron said the Corps may reevaluate closed channel drainage after Senate and HUD discussions, while area plans include a community center at the old Miller Street fire station and expansion of Hough Park Riverside projects. The National Cemetery expansion ties into broader neighborhood development, with hearings slated for January and related funding pending HUD commitment. In a separate matter, William Junior Reeves was ordered to State Hospital No. 1 after changing his murder plea to not guilty by reason of mental defect.

GOP urged to name Republican to Fifth Ward seat
The Republican City Central Committee asked Mayor Christy to appoint a Republican to fill the Fifth Ward Council seat vacated by James R. Strong, who resigned to join the Missouri House. Christy resisted pressure saying selection is his prerogative and would not be made until after Christmas. Strong’s term expires mid April and the vacancy remains for less than six months. The committee said the move would reflect voter choice and standard practice for bi partisan boards. The oldest known paintings date to 30 000 to 40 000 years ago.

Subpoenas granted in Troop E site case in Missouri
Subpoenas were approved at a pre trial conference to obtain the Troop E headquarters contract from John D Paulus director of the state division of planning and construction and to subpoena Col E I Mike Hockaday for related correspondence. Governor elect Bond asked Paulus not to let bids on December 28 and to hold off contracts until the new patrol superintendent reviews the matter. A hearing is set next week on whether the highway patrol may move the Troop E HQ from Poplar Bluff to a site near Sikeston and whether the Highway Commission approval and state funds are required. The veto by Gov Hearnes of an appropriation section naming Poplar Bluff is also under challenge.
