Jorgensen, Grummett and Will jams. Nays were voiced hy Larsen and Nielsen, with Councilman Sully absent and the motion car ried, three to two.
 A motion was then passed un- animcusly that a special Council meeting be called to look over Stuart's report before publica- tion, with Attorney Stabler pres ent
 Nielsen then moved that Stabler also complete his report and break down his figures to show Federal taxes which would not be paid un- der Municipal ownership. The motion passed unanimously.
 At the suggestion of Jack Bur ford from the audience. the Coun- Icil agreed to endeavor to get legal opinion as to whether the Alaska Juneau Mine is required by agree ment to supply electric power to the City regardless of whether the mine is in operation
 Trevor Davis suggested that the letter from MT. J. A Williams, General Manager of Alaska Juneau be published, and this was agreed to.
 The letter points out that were the mine in operation. present power requirements of the City and planned power consumption of the mine would create an overload of at least 2500 kilowatts, which present generators could not pro duce. This would point to an increase in price of power sold to the city since Alaska-Jureau considers power in the mine worth more than it's sale price
 MT Foster brought out by a question that the AEL and P building would be included in the sale price of S900,C00 which has been asked. He put further question which could not be ans wered at last meeting, which was the estimated cost of new diesel hydroelectric plant to make IF the deficit in power. AEL and F now llas in existence, however plans for such a plant and re- serve fund to pay for it's con struction.
 Mayor Hendrickson summed ur the problem facing the City as one of the most momentous of recent years. It is a question now he said, either the City must con- trol the profits of the company by regulating tEe rates, or the City should buy the utility and operate it themselves.
 On the question of tke two water companies, the Juneau Water Works and the Nelson Water Company, which are also to be on the ballot April l, the Mayor referred to a letter from Black and Veatch last year. In summing up the information they had submitted for the rate hear ings, Black and Veatch advised against the purchase of either or both water companies at the prices which they have asked the City to pay. MT Boggan asked from the audience a pertinent question as to the condition of the water mains. That is a condition. said he, which is not visible to the person on the street.
 Asked what control the City has over the rates charged the City by the Light Company, and the resultant profits, Attorney Stabler explained that the City has a statutory right to control the rates of any public utility.
 It is necessary, however to al low the utility reasonable profit on their capital, which is figured as the cost less depreciation. The rate of profit for Juneau has been set at seven percent.
 Discussion could well have con- tinued on into the night, but with other business pressing, the Coun- cil turned from the Utilities ques- ton to somewhat less debatable fields.

Hartley Asks for Probe
'0f Union Dispute al
Georgetown Hospital

Chairman Hartley of the House
Labor Committee said yesterday he
would ask President Truman why
the recently announced manage
ment-labor agreement failed to
operate in a labor dispute at the
new Georgetown University Hos
pital. He added that he would call
the situation to the attention of
his committee.
For the last five weeks, a juris-
dictional dispute between sheet
metal workers and carpenters has
| prevented completion of the air
| conditioning system at the hospital,
which is under construction. The
question also involves which union
should install metal lockers in the
| s., SOC, 900 structure.
Chairman Hartley said he had
little doubt that legislation to
handle jurisdictional strikes will be
passed by this Congress.
On February /, the White House
announced a management-labor
agreement designed to prevent
building strikes. The announcement
said the Associated General Con-
tractors of America and the Con-
struction Trades Department of the
American Federation of Labor had
made such pact.
| Chairman Hartley's committee
will be asked to consider and pos
sibly inquire into the Georgetown
Hospital dispute. Mr. Hartley said
the committee is looking into spe-
cific cases of labor controversies.
Il will ask the President, as chair
man of the labor committee, and the
leaders of the building trade units
that made this agreement how it is
that here, in the national capital,
the delay in the construction of
Georgetown Hospital, which has
persisted for five weeks, is still un-
settled" he said.
THE fact that this exists, con-
trary to the Presidents announce
ment, clearly demonstrates that to-
days comparative calm in the labor
situation should in no way deter the
Congress from enacting legislation,
which the chaotic situation of sew
eral months ago clearly showed was
in order"
Labor leaders under whose juris-
diction the Georgetown Hospital
case, falls could not be reached yes
terday for comment. The officers in
volved-W. E. Hutcheson, interna-
tional president of the carpenters,
whose Office is in Indianapolis, and
Robert Byron, international head
of the sheet metal workers, who is
here-were expected to consider the
dispute.
Richard Gray, president of the
AFL Building Trades Unions, labor
spokesman said, had planned to at
tempt to bring the carpenters and
sheet metal workers together in the
jurisdictional row. On January 8,
six sheet metal workers withdrew
from the job, claiming the car
penters had no right to work on the
air conditioning,
