N. Huehn of the Watâ€" erloo commission in addressing the meeting said that the Waterloo com:â€" missioners had gone into the quosâ€" tion carefully to purchase gas from Kitchener at 85 cents per 1000 but owing to the somewhéat heavy exâ€" pense involved in meter charge and laying a connecting main at cost of $3000 they were somewhat dubious as to whether Waterloo would beneâ€" fit from the proposed arrangement ‘with Kitchener. Commissioners A. K. Cressman and C. Gies of Waterâ€" loo also spoke, both of whom favorâ€" ed buying gas from Kitchener if it can be shown that Waterioo would benefit by securing cheaper gas.

S. Mcintyre, manager of Kitchener, and C. W. Schiedel, manager for Waterloo, to jointly investigate the actual cost of wanufacturing gas at the Waterloo gas plant. Commissioner Carl Kranz made the suggestion which was unanimously carried on,&@motion of Mayor Henderson of Waterloo and Mayor Asmussen of Kitchener. Mr. Kranz said that if the basis of actual cost in Waterloo is found to be cheaper that gas could be purchased at Kitchener, Waterloo will have benefitted by the conference while if a substantial difference between the cost of manufacture and the cost of punchasing from Waterloo is found, the Waterloo ratepayers will receive an immediate benefit, if the Watâ€" erloo commission decides to Buy from Kitchener. â€" Manager Schiedel here stated that the amount expended for the laying of the mains was included in the above figure. He said further that superintendent Gardner had expressâ€" ed his willingness to take three mohnths holidays without pay if the Commission desired. Mayor Henderâ€" son was opposed to this, stating the plant would depreciate and become run down if this was done. k On motion of Commissioners Bechtel and Gies it was decided to negotiate further with the Kitch éner commissioners. % be lost if the proposed ‘agreement were terminated at some future time. He also pointed out that the Waterioo plant would‘ depreciate if left idle and should Waterloo l-tet‘ wish to manufacture gas it would‘ require the expenditure of money to put the plapt in proper shape. The ’_speakor said he gave the question much thought and was as anxious as anyone to provide cheaper gas to the consumers. He felt, however, that the public did not know all the expense entailed in the way of proâ€" viding a gas meter, daying mains. etc., which would be necessary if Kitchener gas was used. In conâ€" olusion he said he favored selling gas®at a reduced price until the end of the year and then submit the quesâ€" tion of purchasing gas from Kitchâ€" ener to the ratepayers at New Years. % Not Upâ€"toâ€"date Commissioner C. Gies referred to the fact that the Waterloo gas plant was in need of repair and would require the expenditure of money to bring it upâ€"toâ€"date. He did not believe that the plant was worth anything like the amount of the $45,000 debentures against it.
