Indemnity Plan Up To Premier’s Unitigation Dec 16 1921
Indiana Bell petitions the public service commission asking for substantial telephone rate increases before February 1 1922 to fund a complete unification of Indianapolis manual and automatic systems. The request covers home and business lines with large proposed increases for both systems. The company argues current rates do not cover operating costs and that unification is near completion, prompting the need for emergency revenue and a higher return on invested properties. The note also references prior petitions and an earlier 1920 commission order predicting a new rate structure once unification is done.
