chief stumbling block in the negotia-
tions are indicated by Mr.. WILKES
letter, which said in part:
Il am, Of course, delighted to accept
your proposal to resume negotiations
Immediately for the purchase, on a
comprehensive basis, Of certain prop
critics in the Tennessee Valley II
your proposal involves the purchase Of
these properties as going concerns
that is, the purchase Of complete
unit and not merely parts of one-it
is an acceptance of what have long
advocated and offers genuine basis
for settlement"
Lines Sale Called For.
Mr.. Lilienthars proposal calls for
the sale to the appropriate public
agencies-city, power district. rural as
Sociation or T. " A-of electric IA
cilities owned by the power companies
in Northern Alabama, Northeastern
Mississippi and substantially all Of
Tennessee, including the cities Of
Memphis Chattanooga and Knoxville.
In broad outline, the plan contem-
plates that T. v. A. will provide gen.
Grafton and transmission and that
local agencies will be responsible for
distribution.
He asserted T. v. A. now has re-
liable estimates Of the present and
future output Of power after the prior
requirements of navigation and flood
control have been met and that the
experience Of the past five years has
developed fairly complete picture Of
the potential demand for this power
Declaring litigation by the power
companies had prevented earlier settle
ment of the problem of competing
services. Mr.. Lilienthal said he be-
lleved his present proposal will serve
as an appropriate basis for negotia-
tions for the three following reasons:
l. 1t is comprehensive and provides
a longtime basis of adjustment upon
which all parties can then make their
plans for the future.
Investor Held Protected.
2. BY providing for the sale of
properties at fair price" it makes
it unnecessary for communities which
have voted to use T. v. A. power to
construct competing and duplicate
distribution facilities. and thereby
protects the investor. This applies
particularly to Memphis, which re-
