(COPY) PAGE TWO G R GRAY ll/ll/29 I PEEL VERY STRONGLY THAT OUR REFUSAL TO ENTER INTO THIS CONTRACT' WILL HAVE THE EFFECT OF CREATING AN ADVERSE FEELING IN THE COMMUNITIES TO BE SERVED AND INCITE MUCH STRONGER OPPOSITION BEFORE THE COMMISSION THAT WOULD OTHERWISE DEVELOP AND THAT EVEN IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH OPPOSITION THE COMMISSION’S ATTITUDE WILL NOT BE AS FRIENDLY AS FORMERLY UNQUOTE. I CONCUR IN MR MGNAMEE’S VIEWS AND FEEL THAT THE ACTION OF THE TAX COMMISSION IN DENYING OUR APPLICATION IS NOT TO BE TAKEN AS AN EVIDENCE THAT OUR COMPANY HAS NOT RECEIVED FAIR TREATMENT IN THE PAST. I ALSO FEEL THAT A REFUSAL TO ENTER INTO THE CONTRACT MAY SERIOUSLY HAMPER OBTAINING INCREASE IN RATES AND CERTIFICATES WHICH WE ARE NOW SEEKING^ AS WELL AS MAKE THE OBTAINING OF FAVORABLE ACTION BY THE COMMISSION IN OTHER MATTERS IN THE FUTURE MUCH MORE DIFFICULT.
