REGARD TO UTILITIES RATES
Battle For Lower Rates Continues; Alderman Jones
Makes Comparison Of Rates At Nogales
And Other Communities

The City of Nogales will ask the
Arizona Corporation Commission
for lower electric rates.
This request is contained in a
resolution which had it's first read
ing at a recess meeting Of the May
or and Board of Aldermen Monday
night.
It was one of five resolutions
in connection with the City'S fight
for lower rates.
The resolutions, all of which we're
read for the first time, were:
Ito authorize Mayor G. G.
Cheshire to publish the COM
parative rate chart compiled by
Alderman Jones for public bene-
fit.
2-Authorizing Mayor Chesh-
ire to apply to the Arizona Cor
poration Commission for a pub
lie hearing of allegedly eXorbi-
tant electric rates for the pur-
revision.
3-Authorizing the Mayor to
negotiate with the Tucson Pow

to this city.

energy for electrification of the
city's water pumping plant.
5-Authorizing the Mayor to
apply to the P.W.A. for a gov

ton of a distributing system
in this city.
Each resolution bore an emergen-
cy clause which requires a Sc vote
of the aldermen for immediate
passage. Alderman E. l.. Juillerat
was absent from the city. All other
five aldermen, except Thomas L.
Hall, voted for the resolutions.
who is a legal representative of
the power company voting in the
negative.
Alderman Hall set forth in the
record his reasons for voting
against the resolutions declaring
them to impose an excessive cost
on the taxpayers, unnecessary and
premature. Having passed the res
olutions without the emergency
clause they are to be read again
for final passage.
