KAHOkA WANTS
EXTRA POWER
Missouri Town Talking of Buying
Power from keokuk to Avoid
Building Additions to ~Pres.
ent Power House.

kahoka is talking about enlarging
its light and power service, and wants
power from keokuk. The Free Press
says:
At a recent meeting of the city coun.
Gil it was determined to investigate
again the proposition of getting power
from the dam at Keokuk This is a
good move IN the right direction. The
city governors believe with many citi.
Zens that Kahoka should have, for sew
eral sufficient reasons, a twenty-four
hour service Of lights and power. This
extended service can not be supplied
with the machinery now In hand.
To attain this desired end new
unit Of power would need to be added
to the plant The installation of this
would entail considerable expense,
which first cost could be avoided in
the acceptance of the KeoBuk plan. It
Is assumed that power could be deliy-
cred ito the city from Keokuk as cheap
or more cheaply, than it can be manu-
featured at home. Even at an even
cost, Kahoka would be in the Keokuk
plan, be relieved of the fear of future
miners strikes, car shortages, mine
8carcities, etc. OF course the city can
not build the line between Kahoka and
Keokuk; this would have to be fnan-
ced by another method. There Is
every reasonable reason to believe
that such a transmission line could be
built and made to be paying invest
ment. Let us go get 1t!
