Phone Company Trims Rate Request in Virginia Hearing
The Cheapeake and Potomac Telephone Company of Virginia reduced its proposed rate increase from 5.8 million to 5.066 million dollars as hearings resumed before the State Corporation Commission. The change arises from a new interpretation of revenue separation between intra state and inter state lines. An Orange County Chamber of Commerce spokesman opposed any further increase, noting base rate around 685 dollars with extensions and tolls for longer conversations.
