A.T. & T. is gradually raising its debt ratio, is being goaded to borrow even more by critics who point out that the interest on debts would be less expensive than dividends paid to stockholders. The FCC, in upholding the 8% rate of return that A.T. & T. insists on, could conceivably, for the first time, demand...
