Atlanta should have It. I am heartily
In favor of a league being formed.
W. R. Shropshire said: ”1 am strong

C. H. Kelley, of Kelley Brothers, sahl:
"By all menns Atlanta should own her

"We should have municipal owner

who desire municipal ownership are
asking the questions. The Municipal
Ownership League Is being formed for
the purpose of solving the problem.
Watch the Committee Meeting.
Monday at 3 o’clock the special com
mlttce of seven councllmen will hold
session In the city hall to form a re
port on ways and means of obtaining
control of public utilities In Atlanta.
The committee Is formed of Alder
man James L. Key, chairman; Aider-
men J. N. McEachern, I*. A. Quintan,
Councllmen W. H. Terrell, E. E. Pom
eroy, W. D. Ellis, Jr., and W. A. Han-
cock.
Not all of the committeemen are In
favor of municipal ownership, but It Is
believed that the voice of the people
whom the councllmen represent will
have a big part to play In their work.
The league Is not, however, relying
on the decision of this committee, but
after Its formation will appoint offic
ers and go to work In dead earnest
along practical lines.
It Is being formed now. The practi
cal work will commence before many
days.
