Phone Rate Cut Knocked Out By High Court
The Ohio Supreme Court ordered a new hearing in the Ohio Bell Telephone rate case, reversing the Public Utility Commission’s December 26, 1950 action that cut $37.5 million from the base for rates.

The case traces to an March 1949 order granting about $8.5 million annually, with subsequent city complaints from Cleveland Columbus Dayton Canton and To.
