FRANK CRANE VOL. XLHI NAZARETH, PA., THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 30,1933 *'No. 1 ' NAZARETH AND A MUNICIPAL POWER PLANT Communication By Local Citi¬ zen Received Expressing View On Matter % Alben T. IMd SCHOOL M- JlDVISEDOF ffiCEUSRATiON Last week we expressed local sen¬ timent regarding the proposed Power and Light Plant and now we would like to ask some questions regarding this same proposition. Let's suppose that the majority of citizens here are disinterested In lo¬ cal government, that they don't care whether the town runs a power plant or whether it is operated by a private concern. Then let's suppose that the minority get their heads together and put up their own private plant for their own private use, and pay for it out of their own pockets. What would happen? There may Ix- niaii.v nivswers to this question, but this is our opinion—Should a few of our citizens who con.sume tlie bulk of our power here erect their own power plant taking caro of tlieir own con- siiinption. woulc' tliat elToct the rates of the individual home? ; If the comparative few who aro opposed to this project would sive a little thought to this question, we [ don't think ih^y would entertain tho id-a that the same is propo.sed for the "big shots' of town. For this reason—Why should any local manu- fact urer worry his head about town power or rates of a private company if he should erect and operate his; own plant at a cost less than rates accorded by them. Mr. Citizen, this would not be the first time in town or history where this condition ex¬ isted and whe'e the supposed "big shots" erected their own power plants and left the town to the mercy of rates controlled by "cost and consumption" of private plants. Should such be the ultimate conclu¬ sion here, where Mr. Citizen, would you look for any reduction In power rates then? Common sense would certainly dictate an entirely different I story, if the 'big load" of Nazazreth I would suddenly be reduced to about ; half. Power cannot be furnished for nothing and usually the more the ! consumption the less the cost. Fi¬ gure It out for youraeU. We merely mention this m food (or | of The Item under date of Novemlx;r 27th, 1933 and the writer signed his name in full.

Wliat is good for eighty- four other municipalities surely is good for the citizens of Nazareth.

NAZARETH AND A MUNICIPAL
POWER PLANT
Communication By Local Citi¬ zen Received Expressing View On Matter

JlDVISEDOF ffiCEUSRATiON
Last week we expressed local sen¬ timent regarding the proposed Power and Light Plant and now we would like to ask some questions regarding this same proposition.
Let's suppose that the majority of citizens here are disinterested In lo¬ cal government, that they don't care whether the town runs a power plant or whether it is operated by a private concern. Then let's suppose that the minority get their heads together and put up their own private plant for their own private use, and pay for it out of their own pockets. What would happen? There may Ix- niaii.v nivswers to this question, but this is our opinion—Should a few of our citizens who con.sume tlie bulk of our power here erect their own power plant taking caro of tlieir own con- siiinption. woulc' tliat elToct the rates of the individual home? ; If the comparative few who aro opposed to this project would sive a little thought to this question, we [ don't think ih^y would entertain tho id-a that the same is propo.sed for the "big shots' of town. For this reason—Why should any local manu- fact urer worry his head about town power or rates of a private company if he should erect and operate his; own plant at a cost less than rates accorded by them. Mr. Citizen, this would not be the first time in town or history where this condition ex¬ isted and whe'e the supposed "big shots" erected their own power plants and left the town to the mercy of rates controlled by "cost and consumption" of private plants. Should such be the ultimate conclu¬ sion here, where Mr. Citizen, would you look for any reduction In power rates then? Common sense would certainly dictate an entirely different I story, if the 'big load" of Nazazreth I would suddenly be reduced to about ; half. Power cannot be furnished for nothing and usually the more the ! consumption the less the cost. Fi¬ gure It out for youraeU. We merely mention this m food (or |
of The Item under date of Novemlx;r 27th, 1933 and the writer signed his name in full. He is a citizen of town and takes the right sort of Interest in any proposition that may help to further the ca««e of Nazareth. Read it:
"Nov. 27, 1933" "Editor of The Nazireth Item" "Dear Sir":-
"I have taken a keen interest In thc flght our local Chamber ot Commerce has been making for a municipal Electric Light and Power Pant for Nazareth. AU progres¬ sive citizens should get back of the Chamber and boost it along to a successful conclusion. Think this over, citiz ns, there are at pre¬ .sent eighty-four cities and bor¬ oughs in the United Sta'cs who own their Electric Plant.s tjivini? th"ir citizens from 3 to 4 cents lower rates per KWH. besides pay¬ ing for fhe Electric Plant out of the profits of the Plant.
"Our ncighoring borough. Qua- kertowii, is .''.t pre.sent building a^ sewer plant out of the pro.lts ac-, cruing from tlie municipal electric plant. Wliat is good for eighty- four other municipalities surely is good for the citizens of Nazareth. Hundreds of our citizens expected an opporiunity to vote on the pro¬ position at the last election, but were sadly disappointed owing to our reactionary council's failure to take action on the proposition when asked to by our local Chamber of Commerce,
