MP and L Withdraws Appeal in Hermann Case
Missouri Power and Light president David Benning signed an agreement with the city of Hermann to withdraw its appeal to the Missouri Supreme Court of a Gasconade County Circuit Court ruling upholding the city's ouster actions. The utility will sell the city electric lines and facilities for 13467 dollars after Public Service Commission approval and discontinue all service in Hermann by May 9, 1959. The city authorizes a 33 000-volt transmission grid and distribution lines for 20 years at one dollar per pole yearly, with maintenance to serve areas outside Hermann. The pact ends a long dispute dating to a 1945 bond issue for a municipally owned system, and marks the final act in the ouster case.
