Olympia Feb 11 public utilities chief L Cleland says no utility will profit from high rates in 1922 and a study will cut telephone rates. The state board will judge Pacific Telephone Telegraph proposals amid many complaints about petty charges and proposed rate reductions. If fixed charges or labor costs are high, cuts may follow, with Oregon rates cited and a 1917 increase noted as historical context.
