WOMAN ATTACKS
POWER CO. RIGHTS

An injunction restraining the Geor
gla Railway, Light and Power COM
pany from condemning the property
Of Mrs. Stella C. Loeb in Rome for
the erection OF a transmission line
was granted by Judge Pendleton Sat
urday morning upon petition of Henry
A. Alexander attorney for Mrs.
Loeb. Hearing of the arguments was
set for November Is.
The Georgia Railway and Power
Company served notice of condemna-
ton upon Mrs. Loeb a week ago. the
hearing of which is set for Novem-
Der 10 in Rome. The issuance of the
restraining order delays this hearing
until after Judge Pendleton rules
upon it.
Mrs. Loeb claims the property
across which 1t is proposed to build
the line is a valuable wholesale site,
and that the construction of the line
would serve to split it into and great
ly depreciate its value.
Unique in the petition is the allie
cation that the Georgia Railway and
Power Company has not the right of
eminent domain owing to the manner
in which 1t is Incorporated.
