TOWN COUNCIL GIVES MORE
THOUGHT TO FRANCHISE
MET IN SPECIAL SESSION
LAST NIGHT WITH ATTORNEY
Are Considering All Propositions
Including Rehabilitating the Old
Smyrna Electric Light Plant

Smyrna Town Council met in
special session Monday night to
consider further the proposition to
sell the Towns Electric Light
Plant and Franchise. Recently the
Eastern Shore Public Service
Company offered the Town of
Smyrna 100000 for its electric
light plant and franchise, enough
for Smyrna to pay off its bonded
Indebtedness and have opproxi-
mately 100000 to spare to put
into a sinking fund to bear semi
annual interest. c. Leland Har-
monson, attorney for the Town of
Smyrna, met with them and the
matter was gone into more fully.
At the same time they considered
the proposition to rehabilitate the
town plant and operate it with oil
engines. Council is looking thor
oughly into the latter proposition
to satisfy an element in Smyrna
who would like to see the Town of
Smyrna operate its own plant.
Already they have bid from an
oil engine manufacturer and his
bid along with others will be con-
sidered. Some members of Coun-
Gil, however, feel as some promin-
ent citizens, that Smyrna in the
long run would be better off not to
further bond the town to rehabili-
tate the plant when they can sell,
pay off the Indebtedness of the
town and start with a clean slate
Despite the fact that the Eastern
Shore Public Service Company has
offered what seems to a majority
of Council, an attractive figure,
the franchise for term of fifty
years (the way electricity, with it's
manifold uses, is growing in
value), is worth considerable more
than the Shore Company offers.
Therefore Council is looking into
all angles of the question, willing
and eager to entertain a higher
proposition if it can be secured
and get all facts and data together
to present to citizens mass meet
ing which they will call as soon as
they can conveniently do so. In
the meantime citizens are discuss
ing the proposition pro and con.
Officials of the Eastern Shore Pub
lie Service will be asked to attend
the Citizens Meeting to answer
questions and to explain their
proposition in detail.
