Sullivan of Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Co. urged reform, noting long distance calls and leased facilities carry 25 percent, local service 15 percent. He argued the tax, paid by customers, should be repealed or reduced as telephone is essential and currently singled out among utilities. He called current rates outdated and inequitable.
