Meter Rate for Muncie and Richmond Wood Usage
Indications tonight point to the Muncie council settling the gas rate dispute tomorrow with a 25 cent meter rate likely to pass. A 22 cent rate may be pursued, while seven councilmen would back a 1/2 cent rate if the companies reject the lower figure. The Wabash Oil and Gas Co franchise proposal for an 18 cent rate next year faces amendments or delay, as it appears aimed at artificial gas plans. In Richmond, residents expect heavy wood use this winter as natural gas and coal price concerns drive families to rely on wood, with farmers expected to bring in substantial wood stocks and prices likely rising.
