THEIR SOLE ARGUMENT

Hamilton's daily papers are sorely
put these days for argument for their
chief topic, the gas question. And
by the way, this is one time, and the
only one in recent years, that the
two dailies agree on a subject. There
is an old saying, that politics make
strange bed-fellows." 1t seems that
gas deals do too. The sole argument
of the two dailies in favor of leasing
the city's gas mains to the Columbia
Gas Supply Company seems to be
that the city is suffering a great loss
by reason of leaking mains and that
this loss can only be avoided if a con-
tract is entered into with the Columbia
Company They continue harping on
this one thing of gas leakage until,
unless they stop it soon, people will
be afraid to light up for fear of caus-
ing an explosion of the leaked gas.
The other evening, one of the dali
les ran a two-column article in which
it rehashed all that it has been say
ing for several weeks of the "enor-
nous" leakage of gas. The article
bore very much the earmarks of
canned stuff" That is the whole
article was written by some one other
than writer connected with that
paper. 1t didn't have the natural
swing of the papers staff members.
1t was no doubt written by some
member of the publicity department
of the natural gas company. Some
one who really knows nothing of
Hamilton conditions, other than that
which he is told.
The article went on to tell that if
the gas rate is increased to 80 cents
thousand cubic feet that the small
consumer would have to pay 20 cents
a thousand more than he is now pay
ing. True, but it didn't say that if
the contract was let to the Columbia
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1926-01-31

Gas Supply Company or the Union
Gas & Electric Company.
Nothing could be farther from the
truth. The Press favors the Hamilton
Furnace Company in this instance be-
cause under the agreement to be en-
tered into with that company Hamil-
ton will not have to lease its gas
mains to an outside concern. Hamil-
ton will continue conducting its own
gas department and be its own boss
in the matter, and won't be told each
time it asks for extension of the con-
tract, by the natural gas company,
that it no longer cares for the city's
business, as has been the experience
of the city's representatives in the
past.
The gas department has been a
great SdNCI lOl IldlIiiiIOu gas
consumers in the past. Then why
not continue the department? 1t has
given us independence that we would
not enjoy if we were in the hands and
power of some big corporation. Is
there anyone to gainsay that we
would be paying right now, much
higher rate for gas if we were doing
business with a private company?
The Press is opposed to leasing the
city's gas mains to any company,
whether it be the Hamilton Furnace
Company, the Columbia Gas Supply
Company, or any other company.

Council of Hamilton, Ohio

and Labor Council Of MiddletOwn. O.
COUNCIL WITH PEOPLE

Hamilton, at last, seems to have a
city council the members of which are
really and truly for the people. That
is they are trying to give the people
that which they know the people want.
They are not like the majority crowd
in the former council who were de-
termined to jam things down the
throats of the people whether they
liked it or not They knew-the old
crowd did-that the people are oppos-
ed to leasing their gas mains to any
company, yet in last minute rush
they jammed through the contract for
leasing the mains to the Columbia
Gas Supply Company.
Not SO, with the present council.
Before the election, through their
party campaign committees, they
made certain pledges, wherein they
promised to always act only in the
best interests of the people so far as
their actions in council were concern
ed. And so far as council is con-
cerned these pledges are being carried
out.
At the meeting Wednesday night
they unanimously turned down the
proposition of Service Director Guy c.
Mitchell to increase the gas rate to 80
cents a thousand cubic feet, knowing
the people are opposed to the in
crease proposed. In its report, the
committee on public service also
pointed out that with the price to be
paid the Hamilton Furnace Company
for artificial gas, the mains can be
reconditioned and the great loss
through leakage stopped, without in
creasing the present rate to the small
consumer of 70 cents thousand cubic
feet. They further point out that
just as soon as the leakage is stopped
that the rates can be decreased, in

KEEPING THE MAINS
AND LOW RATES

The same people who are now ad-
vocating strongly that the Columbia
Company be contracted with were the
same ones who, year ago last No
vember, were strong for the selling
of the city's electric distribution sys-
TEN. Yet the report of the service
director showed that the electric de-
partment made a profit last year Of
S44.596 and furnished the city street
lighting free, which if the city had
to pay for the current used would
have amounted to $72,694.30, or a
total profit for the department of
S117,29O.3O. Would you say, after
that. to sell the electric department? :?
Why. in three or four years, at this
rate, the plant will make in profit
more than was offered for it, and at
the same time, through holding the
plant we are keeping down the rate
for electric current to consumers.
The same company that attempted to
get hold of our electric plant furnishes
Middletown with current where they
charge 10 cents a kilowatt while in
Hamilton they charge but Z cents a
kilowatt. A representative of the
company, when asked why this differ
ence in rates in the two cities,
acknowledged that it was because of
the competition met with in the HAM
ilton city owned plant. And this
same company owns the company that
is irving to get control of our gas
department.
There is the thing in nutshell.
1t is only because Hamilton owns and
conducts it's own gas and electric de-
partments that it enjoys the low rates
which it does. Just as soon as COM
petition is wiped out and the city is
in the power of some big corporation,
that corporation is going to find some
way to increase rates.
Let's continue owning our gas
mains and continue enjoying low
rates

stead of increasing them, as proposed
by the service director.

stead of increasing them, as proposed
by the service director.
Council did this, knowing that they
were following out the wishes of their
constituents and the people at large.
1t was not matter of how they felt
on the question personally, but as to
how the people, whom they repre-
sent, feel and want.
The nine members of council are
made up of three republicans and six
democrats. A fair representation for
both parties as the city is largely
democratic in politics. The public
service committee of the council is
made up of two democrats and one
republican. The nine members voted
unanimously to adopt the report OF
the committee so that no claim can
be made that politics dominated the
action of council in the matter. 1t
was straight out matter of what dc
the people want, and what is their
desire" and it was given them.
The people of Hamilton can rejoice
that they have council made up OF
the caliber of men now in that body
How different from the old gang!

A WRONG IMPRESSION

A wrong impression seems to pre-
vail in some quarters of the city as
to the stand of the Butler County
Press on the gas question. Some
think that the Press favors giving the
contract to the Hamilton Furnace
