Exemption Bill Would Bring Phone Service to NW Kansas
Rep. Marvin Littlejohn says a bill would exempt General Telephone Co. of Nebraska from Kansas regulation to serve about 60 residents in Phillips and Smith Counties. The plan would require 10 to 15 miles of cable, offering improved out-of-town service at lower cost. The Kansas Legislature faces committee action with no decision yet.
