- ALBANY-DECATUR, Ala, Feb. 16. k-Petitions are being circulated here land in other sections of Morgan county asking the Alabama public service com mission to delay the petition of the Alabama Power company for permis- sion to erect transmission line through north Alabama. The commis- sion will meet in the auditorium of the Decatur city hall Monday to hear citizens and to discuss the power com pany's request. The petitions being circulated here point out the granting at this time of this privilege to the Alabama Power company will tend to interfere with legislation now pending in Congress looking to the leasing of Muscle Shoals to Henry Ford
 Should the Ford offer he accepted, the petition ayers, residents of this section of the south have reason to be- lieve the rate for electrical current will be reduced.
 posed line will entail heavy, expendi- tures which ultimately must he borne by the consumer and ''it is not pro- posed to tap new territory which would share in absorbing the cost, which means that the territory now being served will eventually Se called upon to pay this additional expenditure, and this is not the time to further burden business and industry"
