Nicholson, Number of Utilities Merged in Georgia ATLANTA, Ga—Merger of a number of Centra! Georgia utility companies wth the Georgia Pow er Company hecame e fect've De-ember Ist, fol'owing issuance of a charier for the merged cim pany by the Secretary of State. Companies involved in the merger with the Georgia Power Company are the Central Georgia Power Company, Macon Ra'lway and Light Company, Central Georg'a rransmission Company and tlew Georgia Public Service Corpora tion. _Anpouncement was made by P. S, Arkwright, president of the (ieorg'a Power Company, immedi wte'y on completion of the consoli dat'on thst B. R. Chestney, a na tive of Macon and for twenty years asscciated with the Macon The Name Is Popular ! utility companies, has been ap pointed manager of the Macon Di ' vision. For the past several months Mr. Chestneyp}?;s been ac ing manager of the companies fol lowing the resignation of L. A. ‘Magraw, vice president and gen eral manager, to accept a s.milar ' position with tke South. Carolina Power Company at Charleston. | By means of the consolidation, utilities supplying electric light and power to the following cities and towns are brought into the same organzation with the Geor gia ~Power Company: Macon, Barnesvilie, Forsyth, Griffin, ' Jackson, Jones:oro, Monticellc and Thomaston. Street railway ‘service is al¢o supplied in Macon, | Gas service is supnlied to Macon bv a subsidiary companx, the Ma’-‘ con Gas Company, which will con taaue 1o operate under dits own name. : : 1 ~ Control of the group of Macon utilities was obtaiaced by thc. Georgia Power Company throug‘:v{ the aecquisition of a controlling | stock interest at the t.me the ccn-l stituent Georgia Povt:r Company was formed more than a year agfll ¢nd they have since been coperated as sulsidiavies. The Georgia Pow er Company, which now rerves an prox'mately 185 cities and towns in Georgia, is a member of the Southeastern Power and Light Company froup of utilities onerat ing in Gefrgig, Alabama, Missis «ippi and South Cirolina. In anouncing the consolidation Mr. Arkwright stated, “The new arrangement is one which should prove mutually advantageous to Atlanta, Macon and the Central Georgia section. It will make pessible improvements and exten sions of electr.c service in the Ma ten territory whie could not e attempted before, iuct as the con colidation «f the uecrgia Power Company with tne Southeastern Power and Light Company, by previding necessary mnew cabital has made 't possible for us to car ry on an aceressive program of extending clectric service to many new towns of Georgia which pre viouly kai no service at all and| of improving the service in many ; cthar communities. ' “Macon will mot suffer by the now arrangement. Its sphere of} influence in the field of electric service will be grester rather than§ smaller, and the fact that the | local management will continuo‘ under the supervision of Mr. Chestney and the others of his| staff i¢ a guarantee of the con- | tinuation of the same quality of service and consideration of cus-‘ tomers. The policies and practices followed 'y the Georgia Power Company in the other communi- | ties it serves will be observed in’ the new territory, and we hope that Macon and the other com- | munities will always finds us true to our slogan, “A Citizen Wherc-} ever We Serve”. That the Macon territory has | already benefited from the affili ation with the Georgia Power Company and that the consolida tion will mark the beginning of a rew era in the industrial and ag ricultural development of the sec-! tion was the opinion expressed byl Mr, Chestney. Stating *hat thc! Macon Companies under the old ) arrangement were financially un ahla to make necessarv improve ments and extensions, Mr. Chest ney ponced to th= new cars and | other improvements in the Macon street railway system and the ex tengions of electric service in the secuon as evidence of the policies of the mnew company. “Macon | takes another step forward to day,” he <aid. l THAT'LL BE PAY DAY “Jack is so serious-minded.
