Factories Lose Power Decision In Monthly Billing Fight

Large power users weighing an appeal after the Public Service Commission denied their bid to switch Indianapolis Power and Light charges to a monthly demand basis. The order cited negligible benefits and revenue loss for the city’s major manufacturers led by Leedy Manufacturing. Commissioner Ellis authored the ruling with Singleton dissenting. Smollenger said an appeal is unlikely. Ellis proceeded to Vincennes for a hearing.
