There was then prec-ented the `4- :,.yorf s veto message of Ordinance No. 4979, re!' Ing in words and figures rx. followst Honorable Members of City Council.: I am vetoing Ordinance No. 4979, entitled "An Ordinance 4epe :.ling Ordinance 4902, Apprllnred December &, 1930, and for tither Purposes," which ordinance passed by you June 27, 1932. If this ordinance reduced the price of gas to any consu��r one cent this action would not be taken. To the contrary, I am informed by thos n.ffected that it would e n a�n increase to tip industries in this City, who -are solely affected by the ordinruice, of from #30,000 to $65tO00 in fuel cost if the regular price is restored, And the gas bill of not one person, fire, or nor-)Oration will be red -.zced one -penny. I Pm. most certainly in favor of % rP, *acti;::n in utility rates along various lines, but I am Rlso strongly in favor of ennouragement of our local indostries. The laundries, packing; houses, Gil mills, cotton compress etc.,. would have their g;�.s rate increased by this ordLce, and I cannot see where any advantage would accrue to . our City by increasing the o mrating expenses of these local industries $30tOOO to $65,000 per year in fdel coat. We are honing to make this an inviting; field for Industries, yet one of our recognized hindrances is fuel cost. I aw: a , )roving Resolution Igo. 1268, which requirep copies of all contracts °With industrial users and the Little Rook Gras and Fuel Corr)any to be filed Yrith the City Clerk in ten days, where they will be available to the public. Monday night there was introduced by Alderman Terre,l an ordinance repealing the 50 dent monthly service charge embraced in the schedule of rates of the Little !. ock Gas and Fuel Corn =?any, which was referred to the Public Utilities Cor ittee. I am ar.;re the Committee will move as ex- seditiously as legally possible in consideration of that ordinance and give further consideration to amendment of the rates, and report their finding back to the Council, but ;)endings P. final settlement o� rates with the Gas Company I do not think our local inxtastries should be required to =ay higher fuel raster than have been ex- istent under Ordinance No, 4W2. That is my sole reason for this veto. respectfully submitted, (signed) h..A.Knowiton Mayor. 14 Much comment was ra,--).de on the -)rxt of anumber of the Alderman and courtesy of the floor was estended Mr. A.
