Without clear legislative direction, these two capacities cannot be intermixed. Nelson v. Pollay, 1996 OK 142, ¶ 6, 916 P.2d 1369, 1373 (citing Anderson v. Eichner, 1994 OK 136, ¶ 11, 890 P.2d 1329, 1336 n. 15); So-Lo Oil Company, Inc. v. Total Petroleum, Inc., 1992 OK 71, ¶ 8, 832 P.2d 14, 18; Humphrey v.

Dinwiddie, 1939 OK 406, ¶ 10, 95 P.2d 867, 869 (1939). The terms of 12 O.S. 2001 § 2[ 12-2] state:
mers declining to deal with it; that it faces the problem of third party contractors refusing to pay the increased prices called for by contract and refusing to make reimbursement of taxes advanced by the company under contract and from the loss of benefit of escalation provisions in existing contracts, as well as the threatened inability to dispose of future supplies of natural gas produced by it. Furthermore, the company states that failure to comply with the newly promulgated regulations of the Commission will subject it unduly to the risk and threat of severe fines and penalties provided by the Natural Gas Act. The entire controversy in these cases revolves around the decision of the Supreme Court in Phillips Petroleum Co. v. State of Wisconsin, 1954, 347 U.S. 672, 74 S.Ct. 794, 98 L.Ed. 1035, affirming the decision of this court in State of Wisconsin v. Federal Power Commission, 92 U.S.App.D.C. 284, 205 F.2d 706, which reversed the decision of the Federal Power Commission In the Matter of Phillips Petroleum Co., 1951, 10 F.P.C. 246, 90 P.U.R., N.S., 325. The series of orders designated as Order Nos. 174, 174-A and 174-B stem directly from the decision in the Phillips case, supra, and were promulgated by the Commission to adapt the Commission's rules and regulations to that decision. Following the decision of the Supreme Court on June 7, 1954, the Commission, on July 16, 1954, issued Order No. 174 prescribing procedural rules of general applicability to those persons, "independent producers and gatherers," determined by that decision to be within the purview of the Natural Gas Act and subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission.

We find that pursuant to 68 O.S. 1991 § 2701[ 68-2701](A), a city may create classes of taxpayers for the purpose of the levy and collection of a municipal sales taxes. Smicklas v.

It is undisputed that nothing in the language of 11 O.S. 1991 § 51-104b[ 11-51-104b](C) affords the PERB the express authority to enter a cease and desist order requiring affirmative relief. The public policy of the Act is expressed in § 51-101(B) and (C). Subsection (B) accords firefighters and police officers all rights of labor, with the exclusion of the right to strike.
