given the matter of a league any
thought, but I will Join It.”
Attorney G. C. Rogers said; "Mu
nicipal ownership Is a good thing and
Atlanta should have It. I am heartily
In favor of a league being formed."
W. R. Shropshire said; ”1 am strong-
)v In favor of n>unJrij>nl ownership of
public utilities. A municipal ownership
league will be an excellent thing.”
“By All Means," 8ays Kelloy.
C. H. Kelley, of Kelley Brothers, said;
“By all means Atlanta should own her
public utilities. I am In favor of the
league und It will give me pleasure to
3 Mayor-elect W. R. Joyntn ‘!At this
time I do not core to talk on the sub
ject. other than to soy the entire coun
try Is moving toward municipal own
ership.”
Jerome Jonoo, prominent In organ
ized labor In Atlanta, said; "No argu
ments can stand In the way of muni
cipal ownership of gns and electric
lighting plants. I am for these heart
ami soul. .
These expressions picked up from
representative men In n number of dif
ferent businesses and professions well
express the sentiment of the public at
large.
"We should have municipal owner-
ship. It Is a good thing, but where Is
the money to come from ? How are we
to get It?” In many Instances those
who desire municipal ownership are
asking the questions. The Municipal
Ownership League Is being formed for
the purpose of solving the problem.
Watoh the Committee Meeting.
Monday at 3 o'clock the special com
mittee of seven coancllmcn will hold
*>**lnn 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-
innn James L. Key, chairman; Alder
men J. N. McEachern, F. A. Qullllan,
C’ouncllmen W. H. Terrell, E. E. Pom
eroy, W. D. Ellis, Jr., and IV. A. Han
cock.
Not nil of the committeemen are In
favor of municipal ownership, but It Is
believed that the voice of the people
whom the rouncllmen represent will
hnve 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
aiong practical lines.
It Is being formed now. The prnctl
cal work will commence before many
days.
