1Opinion of the Court
BELL, Circuit Judge:
This appeal presents an important question in drawing the balance between state action excluded from the federal antitrust laws under the aegis of Parker v. Brown, 1943, 317 U.S. 341, 63 S.Ct. 307, 87 L.Ed. 315, on the one hand, and includible non-state action on the other, in the field of state regulated public utility monopolies. The case comes to us on an appeal by plaintiff from a summary judgment entered for defendants, D.C., 313 F.Supp. 860, on a stipulation of facts which is full and complete for the purposes of the issue presented. We affirm.
Plaintiff, Gas Light…
