Mountain Fuel was the only investor-owned gas company in the United States to request a reconsideration of the Julyi 27 order and the only one to send representatives to appear at the rehearing in Washington, Washing-ton, D.C., to protest the higher prices.

"It will be a complicated matter for us to recalculate the exact amount each customer will receive by way of credit on future bills. House of Sherman Hair Co. to Open In Center Si.
