RATES HERE
Dover Gas Light Company
Requests New Franchise
and Higher Gas Rates
PARKING METERS

Representatives from the Dover

chise and an increase in gas rates
for the Town of Smyrna it was an
nounced by Leslie Maxwell, Town
Manager of Smyrna. The request
was presented at the Council meet

change from the present type of
manufactured gas to a propane
gas which will be shipped in by
the carload. They will keep in re-
