Public Service Commission may hold town hearing on light plant
The Public Service Commission plans to set a date this week for a hearing in Hagerstown on whether the city may build a new Municipal Light plant. Engineers from the commission spent two weeks studying the plan, with a Baltimore hearing previously held. Officials will determine the advisability of the project, given a lower power bid from Potomac Public Service Company and a $300 600 bond issue approved in 1922. The commission may also study a water plant on the Potomac river costing over 1.5 million, with a recommendation to source water from the Potomac. The ruling date is not yet known. A Carlisle, Pennsylvania telegram warns of an alleged eloping couple seeking a license under the names Harry John and Mary Brownwell in this city.
