HON. THOS. J. FLAN NELLY, District Court of Montgomery
County, Independence, Kansas.
DEAR SIR : When on the witness stand in your Court, on June
30th, "on the matter of devising an equitable rate schedule for
the Kansas Natural Gas Company, to comply with the opinion
of the District Court of the United States, under date of June 3,
1916," I promised to prepare a compilation showing the use of
the "minimum charge" in American Public Utility Rate Sched-
ules. Later on you authorized me to have this printed so as to
make a number of copies available immediately for use of your
Court.
The fundamental principles underlying, and the adjudicated
"minimum charge" monetary allowances in force in a large num-
ber of Public Utility Rate Schedules are given in the following.
A careful study of these will show that:
1. The "minimum charge" doctrine has become a fixed part
of American Public Utility jurisprudence.
2. A "minimum charge" is necessary to prevent discrimination
and compel each class of consumers to pay for the ser-
vice they are receiving, and the cost they are incurring.
3. There are ample precedents for making the "minimum
charge" proportional to the size of the consumer's meter,
or the consumer's possible demand for service as illus-
trated in Sections 28, 35, 42, 49, 66, 73, 75, 76, 84 and 88.
Respectfully submitted,

FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES.
§ i. Introduction.
The following is a brief discussion of the fundamental prin-
ciples underlying the "minimum charge" in public utility ser-
vices. The minimum charge monetary allowances that have been
judicially determined in a large number of adjudicated cases, are
tabulated in Part II. The minimum charge monetary allowances
in force in a large number of other rate schedules are tabulated
in Part III.

§ 2. Definition of Readiness-to-Serve.
"Readiness-to-serve" is a form of minimum charge made to
cover the costs incurred by the utility in holding itself in constant
readiness to render service, without, however, delivering any
units of service. The actual units of service (such as kilowatt
hours of electric energy, cubic feet of gas, gallons of water, or
number of messages) used are paid for by an additional rate
schedule.
The readiness-to-serve charge has been made primarily in elec-
tric utilities; however, this practice is applicable to all public
utility rate schedules. The term "demand charge" is used syn-
onymously with "readiness-to-serve."1
1 Case and Comment, May, 1916.
§ 3- Readiness-to-Serve and Minimum Charge Distinguished.
"The term 'minimum charge/ as used in public utility rate par-
lance, means merely the minimum monthly bill which will be
rendered, which includes a certain definite number of units of
public utility service. The consumer, however, pays the entire
minimum bill, regardless of whether or not he has used the
number of units of public utility service that go with the mini-
mum bill charge.""
§ 4. Meter Rental Distinguished from Readiness-to-Serve and
Minimum Charge.
"The readiness-to-serve charge is made simply for service
rendered. The minimum bill charge is a combination charge for
service rendered and a certain number of units of service sold.
"A meter rental is rental for equipment which the utility is
under obligation to furnish the customer, and the rental is added
to the bill regardless of the monthly service consumption. It is
wrong in principle and cannot legally be enforced. Failure to
distinguish between readiness-to-serve, minimum charge, and
meter rental has been the cause of much confusion and some
unsound decisions from judicial bodies."3
§ 5. Public is More Familiar with "Minimum Charge" than with
"Rcadiness-to-Serve" Charge.
This is due to the public's contact, for many years, with the
"minimum weight" and "minimum charge" features in railroad
and express company schedules, and more recently in the parcels
post. Practically all telephone schedules also are on a minimum
charge basis, and this has helped to familiarize the public with
this style of charging, rather than the straight readiness-to-serve
charge, which is newer.
§ 6. Extent of Readiness-to-Serve Expense.
A popular fallacy regarding the readiness-to-serve expense is
that it is limited to merely the meter or service line. This, how-
ever, is far from the truth. The readiness-to-serve feature em-
2 Case and Comment, May, 1916.
3 Case and Comment, May, 1916.
braces the entire plant, and extends back through the entire public
utility organization. Thus, in natural gas plants the reserve
acreage, that is carried to insure continuous service in the future,
and to replace the ever-vanishmg supply, is as much an integral
part of the readiness-to-serve feature as is the domestic meter
through which the company finally markets the gas to the ulti-
mate consumer. Even if the natural gas company does not
carry the acreage direct, the readiness-to-serve feature will be
reflected in the price that the natural gas company must pay for
gas in the field.
Continuity of service is also a vital feature in the readiness-
to-serve expense. The public utility plant must not only be main-
tained in readiness-to-serve, but must be capable of rendering
service every hour of the day, and every day of the year, ever
ready to meet the consumers' caprice in using or not using its
service. This feature is, of course, especially marked in electric,
water and gas utilities.
§ 7. Minimum Charge Not a Discrimination Against Small Con-
sumers.
"In the last analysis, the consumers of a public utility are all
mutually interested in each other's financial relation to the utility.
It is the legal duty of utilities so to classify and fix their charges
and financial relations with their consumers that the burdens of
the utility's service shall be reasonably, justly, and equitably, but
not necessarily equally, distributed over the service rendered its
consumers."4
No ethical grounds, sociological motives, or legal obligations
can justify the rendering of public utility service to the so-called
poorer people of the community at a price, or on a basis, that
makes others pay for their service. In this connection it is
important to bear in mind that the term "small consumer" and
"poor man" are frequently erroneously used synonymously. With
natural gas companies a large number of careful studies have
shown, beyond any possibility of doubt, that in most cases the
small consumer is not the poor man, but the man of moderate or
4 Case and Comment, March, 1916.
8
well-to-do circumstances, and who can well afford to pay for the
expense he is adding to the service in general.
"It is undoubtedly true that the exaction of a minimum charge
will result in an apparent hardship to a small number of con-
sumers who use their equipment but a very short time, in some
cases not more than four or five hours per month. The fact
must not be lost sight of, however, that the supply of electric
power is strictly a commercial proposition,' and to relieve one
customer from the payment of any considerable portion of the
cost would merely result in transferring the burden to other cus-
tomers, and such a transfer does not appear to be justified."5
§ 8. Absence of Minimum Charge Produces Discrimination.
"Where no minimum charge is made, the company is compelled
to carry considerable dead investment, and to incur other ex-
penses for those consumers who pay nothing or very little to the
company ; and that, where such costs are not borne by consumers
for whom they are incurred, they usually have to be carried by
other consumers, and are, therefore, in a sense discriminatory."6
§ 9. Object of Minimum Charge.
"The chief argument for the minimum charge is that it covers
expense that in the ordinary rate schedules cannot be covered in
any other way."7
"The question of the effect of this minimum charge on the
revenues of the utility is not of first importance in determining
the reasonableness of such a charge. The main purpose of the
minimum charge is rather to make it certain that each consumer
bears his just share of the expenses incurred in supplying
service."8
§ 10. Minimum Charge Necessary and Just.
"Under meter rates revenue is available only when service is
used, and it is a common experience that many customers do not
use sufficient service to incur a bill large enough to meet the

fixed expenses alone. A minimum bill there tore is both necessary
and just."a 10
A long line of decisions of the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion, and the Wisconsin Railroad Commission, have also justified
the fixing of a minimum weight and charge for transportation
services, thus :
"The necessary expense and trouble attending the carriage of
less than carload shipments, large or small, which, aside from
the manual labor involved, are practically the same irrespective
of the weight and bulk of packages, justifies the fixing of a
minimum charge for the transportation of such shipments."11
§11. Minimum Charge is Not a Penalty.
The minimum charge is not a penalty for a failure to use ser-
vice, "but is properly to be regarded as compensation for that
part of the service which is at all times being rendered in the
maintenance of the apparatus and connection through which the
service is made available."12
§ 12. Minimum Charge Must be Large Enougii to Cover Cost of
Units of Service Used.
"It is clearly seen that where the minimum bill covers only the
bare consumer cost and fixed charges, there will be no return to
the company for the gas used by the consumer who pays the
minimum bill. It is evident that a minimum charge, to be fair
and equitable to the company, must not only guarantee these
expenses which are incurred by the company whether the con-
sumer uses much or little gas or none at all, but must also be
placed at a sufficiently high level that the cost of the gas actually
used by the minimum takers shall be paid for."13
"Either the minimum bill must be made sufficiently large to
cover the use of gas through meters affected by the minimum bill,
or the utilities must charge for gas used in addition to the mini-
mum charge. This latter course is not deemed practicable.

Accordingly, we have aimed to construct a schedule of minimum
charges which shall recognize the varying investment in meters
and services, and shall be sufficient to pay the consumer costs
shown in the above tables, and to pay as well for the average
quantity of gas used by meters affected by the minimum."14
§ 13. Minimum Charge Necessary until Service is Discontinued.
"It appears that in a portion of the territory served by appli-
cant, particularly at Newport Beach, a large proportion of appli-
cant's customers own cottages which are occupied during two or
three months in the summer, and that during the remaining por-
tion of the year they are occupied only occasionally, or not at all.
The owners of these cottages object to paying a minimum of
$1.00 during the entire twelve months.
"However, applicant's plant must be maintained in readiness
to serve during the entire year, and applicant's investment is tied
up and its system depreciates during the entire twelve months.
Hence it seems only fair that as long as applicant's customers
remain connected to applicant's system that they should pay a
reasonable minimum monthly. Applicant must be ready to serve
at a moment's notice every customer who is connected to system,
and a proper portion of its investment and of the depreciation is
fairly chargeable to each customer. The sum of $1.00 per month
is a usual minimum charge for gas. I see no reason why it
should not apply to applicant, provided that its customers under-
stand that they have the right to have their service discontinued
at any time and thus avoid the further payment of any minimum
until the premises are again connected. A fee of $1.00 is reason-
able for again making the service connection. . . ,"15
§ 14. Monthly Basis for Minimum Charge Best.
"The exaction of a minimum charge is a reasonable rule and
the making of this charge by the month is just and reasonable,
and is more equitable than if the charge were made by the
year."16

§ 15. Minimum Charge Should be Proportioned to Consumer's
Demand.
It is a well known fact that consumers with large equipment
produce more marked peak load characteristics, and are, there-
fore, more expensive to handle than smaller consumers. In order
to be equitable a minimum charge ought to be made proportional
to the amount of service the consumer can demand, and the
easiest way to do this is to increase the minimum charge amount,
as the meter sizes increase, as illustrated in Sections 28, 35, 42,
49, 66, 73, 75, 76, 84 and 88 herein.
"A utility may make a reasonable minimum charge for water,
based on the size of the meter and consumption of water, to
protect itself from loss if no water is consumed, but it cannot
make such charge in the form of rental for the meter."17
<§ 1 6. Legal Right of the Minimum Charge.
The preponderance of evidence and precedents show that to
prevent discrimination the minimum charge is economically nec-
essary, ethically sound and legally right. The principles discussed
in the preceding sections, the following six court decisions, and
a long line of several hundred decisions from Public Utility Com-
missions— which for brevity's sake are not quoted — although the
monetary allowances in these cases are given in Part II, indicate
that the minimum charge doctrine has become a fixed part of
American public utility jurisprudence.
§ 17. Missouri Supreme Court.
March 4, 1889.
"The evident purpose of this rule was to exact fair compensa-
tion from those requiring gas connection, and gas furnished at
hand, though the amount consumed should be very small, almost
nominal. We think it is not unjust or unreasonable. It is a mat-
ter of common knowledge, that to furnish gas at hand for a very
small or nominal consumer, requires the same outlay in the way
of a meter, periodical inspection and repairs, with weekly or
monthly visitations, that is required of very large consumers.
17 P. U. R. 1915— E. p. 867 Montana Public Service Commission v. Water Utilities, Aug.
12
The same investment, and the same care and oversight, is re-
quired where the gas monthly consumed shall not exceed 10
cubic feet, or even i cubic foot, or where the amount used may
be 10,000 cubic feet. At the rate charged then in Sedalia, . . .
the gas company would be required to invest and expend, for the
benefit of this merely nominal consumer, more dollars than cents
received. . . . We hold, then, that the rule or regulation in
question, ... is not as a matter of law unreasonable."18
§ 1 8. Missouri Supreme Court.
November 7, 1898.
"The defendant then, apart from the contract, had a right to
fix a fair and reasonable minimum charge to compensate it for
necessary expense and service in inspecting meter, and for ser-
vice used in a quantity not provided for by the contract — 75^
per month was found by the Court to be a reasonable charge for
the meter service."19
§ 19. New York Supreme Court.
October 24, 1914.
"The law does not comtemplate that the defendant shall do
business at a loss. It is expected that it will, and it is entitled
to, make a reasonable profit upon its venture, and the sole ques-
tion in such a case as this is, whether the charge made is un-
reasonable, considering all that the defendant is required to do,
to meet each customer's demand. . . . The customer does
not bind himself to use any particular amount of light, so that
the return to the company, based on actual consumption, would
rest entirely upon his volition, and it would, therefore, depend
upon him whether the service he has required the corporation
to be in constant and immediate readiness to render, is profitable
or unprofitable to the latter. But this constant condition of
readiness is a necessary and unavoidable obligation, which must
be sustained in order to meet instantaneously the demand for
light, which the consumer is entitled to have at any moment that
he wishes it. It thus forms a part of the service to be rendered,
" 34 Mo. App. 501. State ex rel. v. Sedalia Gas lyight Co.
19 76 Mo. App. 540. Carney v. Chillicothe W. & Iv. Co.

and is an item properly to be considered when the reasonableness
of the charges exacted by the company is called in question.
. . . They are free to exact a reasonable return for the ser-
vice required, which includes, as I have said, not only the actual
.supply of electric light, but the readiness to supply it. . . .
One consumer with the same number of lamps will use more than
another. In both cases the return to the company may be
remunerative, or the use of one may be so inconsiderable as to
involve a loss. To meet this contingency the monthly minimum
charge of $1.50 is made. But it must be borne in mind that this
payment is not in addition to the charge for actual consumption.
Where light is used which entitled the company to payment on
meter measurement, of a sum per month equal to, or in excess
of the so-called minimum charge, the customer pays only for the
light he has actually had; so that this fixed charge becomes prac-
tically operative only where his consumption falls below the
extent of the use which it measures. I can see nothing unreason-
able in this, when the service, as I have defined it, which the
company is obliged to render, is considered."20
§ 20. Tennessee Supreme Court.
"We do not think it can be reasonably contended that it is not
competent to charge a minimum rate. We think it clear from
the authorities that the company had a right to fix a fair and
reasonable minimum charge for water supplied to any particular
residence."21
§21. Kansas Supreme Court.
December 9, 1911.
"The council evidently deemed it proper and reasonable to
collect 50^ a month from each patron, whether he used gas
amounting to that sum during the month or not, on the theory
that the minimum sum would pay for reading meters and other
services performed by the city in connection with the services,
although the amount of gas used in one month might not entitle
the city to this sum. ....

"The regulation being one contained in an ordinance, it is
presumptively reasonable until the contrary is shown, or unless it
is unreasonable or discriminatory on its face, . . . and it
not appearing prima facie unreasonable, but reasonable, it must
. be upheld."2"
§ 22. Arizona Supreme Court.
February 18, 1914.
A recent session of the Arizona Legislature provided by statute
"that gas, electricity and water measured through a meter would
be charged for according to the exact amount used, and that no
other charge should be made."
This statutory limitation, however, did not meet with the
approval of the commission, and the question was raised as to
whether a Public Service Corporation could establish and collect
a minimum rate notwithstanding the legislative expression to the
contrary. The State Supreme Court of Arizona23 held the pre-
ceding satute unconstitutional and affirmed the Arizona Corpora-
tion Commission's power to make and enforce a minimum charge
in the face of the unconstitutional statute.
The Court held under the unusually broad provisions of the
Arizona State Constitution that "the functions of the corpora-
tion commission are neither legislative, executive nor judicial,
but its duties and powers pervade them all, and it is in fact
another department of government ; and where it is given exclu-
sive power it is supreme." 24
