Final report upholds 80 cent gas rate fight in New York
Arthur H. Masten master in chancery files final report in the United States Circuit Court, sustaining the tentative finding that Consolidated Gas cannot be forced to supply gas at 80 cents per thousand feet to private consumers or 75 cents to the city. The report rejects most city and state amendments, overrules many objections, and preserves a $20,000,000 goodwill figure while adding notes on proper return and penalties for overcharges.
