Judge Rules for State on Gas Rate Enforcement
District Judge Charles Wheeler ruled the State may keep a suit to enforce a 32c gate rate for Lone Star Gas set by the Railroad Commission on Sept 13 1933 but cannot seek money judgments for alleged excess charges after the reduced rate took effect. The judge upheld the injunction demanding adherence to the reduced rate while blocking penalties. The utility has billed 40c per 1000 cubic feet at city gates.
