The ordinance assessing 500

the Pacific Telephone 4 Telegraph
Co. passed unanimously after the
city fathers listened briefly to Leo
J. Conlin. district manager Of the
company
Appeals for Delay
Conhn again appealed 10 the
council 10 refrain from passing the
ordinance and resume negotiations
for a new franchise So his com
pany would have a basis for neces-
sary long-term planning. He made
no protest against the ordinance
other than to say his company has
no intention Of continuing any free
telephone service To the city on a
central office basis. a service which
he now values at $3.50 per year
and which the city council did not
write into its new ordinance.
His statements did not make
any promise that his company
viii not protest later nv pay
ing It's fees with ACCOMPANY
ing protest letters. That was
followed for nine months In
Spokane. making the payments
unspendable for city expenses.
The city fathers here passed the
ordinance with the hope Of get
ting fixed spendable sum into
the budget for next year which
would exceed the two per cent OF
gross exchange revenues which the
company had offered. That WAS
the percentage in the expired fran
chise. 1t Melted approximately
500 per year in cash for the
city. The new ordinance would
make $50. 500 In addition there
would be the free fire and police
alarm systems which the company
values at $4,000 and offered to
continue.
Similar Plan Elsewhere
Spokane and Seattle both are on
an ordinance and street rental ba-
sis with the telephone company
after negotiations failed TO bring
franchise agreements there.
Utilities Commissioner r. ID.
O'Neil pointed out before the vote
that the ordinance in no way pre-
vents immediate reopening Of fran
chise negotiations.
