Oklahoma rate denial shapes investor guidance on gas firm
The Oklahoma Corporation Commission denied a rate increase, likely to be appealed, limiting earnings for the year to end August 3. Earnings fell 5.1 percent to $1.83 a share despite a 4.8 percent rise in operating revenues. The company holds natural gas reserves enough for about 14 years, influencing investor appeal for revenue growth versus income yield.

Belts fail to move motorists in nine month city study
A nine month cable TV campaign in a medium size city did not raise belt use. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety funded ads using graphic scenes found use remained 9 to 16 percent for lap belts and 1 to 6 percent for both lap and shoulder belts. Studies show belts cut injuries and fatalities, but the city study found no effect. Legislation to boost belt use spurs 12 states and federal pressure grows.
