DOVER POWER PLANT - The
Dover municipal power plant now
is back in operation after 3 two
month shutdown during which the
large turbine was overhauled and
boiler cleaning effected, a recondi-
tioning that had been much needed.
With the return of the plant to
operation, the auxiliary transform
er of the Delaware Power and
Light Company at the power plant
was disconnected. While the city,
under contract, takes 1000 kiio-
watts a month from the power
company, the latter had beer sup
plying current for all Dover re-
quirements during the two-month
period.
The plant was shut down on Sep
tember / at the hour when notices
of the employees of the plant to
the effect that they were leaving
their posts unless a stipulated
wage increase had not been grant
ed them at that time, become af-
fective. The quit notices had been
described by a purported repre-
sentative Of the employees as an
ultimation with the result that the
city prepared itself to get power
from the Delaware Power and
Light Company when the fixed hour
arrived.
OF the 1S employees on the pow
er plant payroll at the time, nine
are among the plan employees
now, that it is again in operation.

The Bitter sweet lowed the small boat back to town, although we didn't need to be lowed, "I Wheeler said. He said there! was no damage to the boat, and that the boys had plenty to eat.
