sons ordinance and was on the
brink Of obtaining n favorable vote
on the ordinance when Commits
sioner Fawcett interviewed with a
substitute motion calling for =
one weeks delay.
ENTITLED TO DELAY
This motion carried. Fawcett ex-
planning he felt any member of
the council was entitled to ask for
a delay in voting on any question
at any time.
The argument between the mayor
and Davisson had gotten warm. so
warm that the mayor had reached
a point where he backed up his
words by pounding his hand on
the glass table top.
Davisson expressed the opinion
that all the chamber of commerce
people wanted was to block his
program and by a gesture, he in
Dictated a squeezing maneuver. as
he referred to the chambers Rtti-
tude toward municipal power as
what has heretofore been an
adverse sentiment
On Davisson's question, the
mayor said 1t was the chambers
industrial engineer, Frank j.
Walsh. who had requested a hear
ing with the council.
WANTS INQUIRY
The mayor declared he felt
Davisson was trying to rush" the
ordinance through. and that he
didn't intend to vote any appro-
priation as large as S150,000 with
out adequate inquiry.
DAVIDSON had explained AT
length his belief that the city can
develop new power for itself at a
cost less than 1t can be obtained
from the Bonneville and Coulee
circuits.
The council members had ques-
toned him on many technical
phases of the Bonneville rate
structure with reference to Ia
comas power position and Davis
son had deliberately explained what
offers Bonneville's administration
has made and why he doubted they
would ever give energy away"
QUIZZED ON RATES
Questions were asked Of Davis
son about the Pennsylvania Salt
Manufacturing Company's contract
and the company's rumored plans
for new construction II they could
obtain certain lower rates here.
DAVIDSON replied he had assured
the company he would recommend
to the council amendment Of their
existing contract II they wanted To
buy part of their power require
ments MISUNDERSTANDING Bon
neville. He insisted. however,
Pennsylvania Salt could not get
the rate 1t was seeking from
Bonneville or anywhere else.
However. the council later
agreed the Pennsylvania Salt
question will not be admitted to
Thursdays discussions, as being
lateral matter.
WANTS EXPERTS
DAVIDSON said that II the coun-
ell passed the ordinance Wednes-
day he would have letters in the
mail Wednesday night seeking to
find the experts he hopes to hire
TO make the surveys he says are
necessary before he can make
recommendations about the city'a
future power development plans
He promised the council he would
lay before them for their approval
the names Of such experts as he
was able to engage and recon.
mend.
/ DAWSON took the position that
delays might prove costly and
that be was anxious 10 get started
as soon as possible.
