The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1916-05-12

Six officials of the Michigan Unit
ed Traction company, the Common
wealth Power company, and the
Michigan Engineering company,
came to Owosso in the special inter-
urban car of General Manager Col
Inns Of the railroad Wednesday, con-
tinued to Corunna, and from there
took automobiles east toward Flint
Their action gives rise to the belief
that they came to this county for the
purpose of passing over the proposed
route of the electric railway extern
sion to Flint and is believed to sig
nal active operation on the part of
the company within the near future.
Announcement that the Michigan
United Traction company was to
make. extensions to the line passing
through this city, either to Saginaw
or Flint, was made by an official of
the company some time ago. 1t is
presumed that the officials who made
the trip Wednesday desire to choose
the route which would entail the
least outlay in construction. If the
matter of construction cost is taken
into consideration the route will I'M
doubtedly extend to Flint, as the
ground is practically level all of the
way, ,affording excellent opportuni-
ties for railroad building.
The belief is current in Owosso
following the visit that the extension
to Flint, covering thirty miles of
country is practically assured within
the coming twelve months at least.
