Middletown city commissioners heard Ortman-Stewart request a raise from seven to ten cents citing higher operating costs and expanded territory. Attorney Elliott Levey argued for fair profit with no substantial increases since 1937, while Commissioner Carmody asked for 1947-48 financials to justify the rise.
