To Debate Gas
With Voolfolk

The gas company's displeasure
over the conduct of the "town
meetings" on the municipal owner
ship proposal today brought a
suggestion from city officials that
a series of public debates be sub
stituted for the question and
answer periods.
Under the new plan city officials
are considering the possibility of
having Mayor Jeffries square off
against William C. Voolfolk, presi-
dent of the gas company.
Assistant Corporation Counsel
James II. Lee. the city's gas ex-
pert, VS.. Henry A. Montgomery.
gas company attorney, is another
suggested match.
Montgomery has complained bit
terly at recent town meetings"
that the proceedings were a
farce" and that the public was
receiving no real facts.
81 am not averse To debating
with any one, anywhere, any
time on the subject Of the city's
proposal to acquire the gas
utility" Mayor Jeffries declared.
Council President John w.
Smith. sponsor Of the town meet
ing" plan. endorsed the proposal
for public debates and blamed
Montgomery for leading the previ-
Gus town meetings" into a dis
cuSsion of DSR policies.

ments required by the defense pro-
gram, however, together with the
prospect of increasingly close re-
lations between the United States
and Canada after the war and the
plan to develop the St.. Lawrence
