W. II. Taylor, president, and V. H. Hcrdman, attorney, representing the- Omaha Gas Co., yesterday ad vised Mayor Smith and Corporation Counsel V. C. Lambert that the company will not file an appeal in the- event that the city elects to take over the gas plant at the appraised valuation of $4,500,000. Mayor Smith announced that he is ready to offer for consideration of the city council a resolution stat ing that the city will accept the terms of the appraisal,' providing that the gas company will file a waiver- of its rights to appeal; and he resolution further will provide that in the event such waiver is filed the department of accounts and finance shall prepare an ordinance tor the issuance of bonds not to ex ceed $5,000,000. A canvass of the city commission ers indicates that a majority is not yet ready to express approval of the mayor's position, although the mayor stated his belief that his resolution will have the support of a majority in the city council. Might As Well Be Frank. "I told the gas company officials that we might as well be frank with each , other; that. if they would not signify a willingness to waive the right to appeal, I would offer a resolution that the cily council should reject the appraisal of the court of condemnation," the mayor said. , The difference between the ap praisal'of $4,500,000 and the pro posed $5,000,000 bond issue would meet the cost of materials which the company probably will sell to the city in the event of an agree ment on the purchase. The mayor said he believed that all fonrfalities could be disposed of before June 1, and he further indi cated his belief that the city could sell gas for $1 per thousand feet within the first six months of mu nicipal ownership. Water Board Joins In. Commissioner Butler is inclined toward the mayor's view of the sit uation. "I believe the company would be receiving more than the plant is worth, but even at that I am confident that the city will be able to reduce the price of gas material ly," he said. Commissioner Ure, Zimmau and Towl are not ready to commit them selves. They ask for more time to analyze the figures. The gross receipts of the company last year were $1,311,581.56 and total of operating expenses, $1,084,293, after deducting all forms of taxes and similar expenses, leaving a bal ance of $2-7,285. Inasmuch as the Metropolitan Water board will manage the! gas plant if the city takes it over, mem bers of that board are beginning to join in the deliberations between the city and the gas company.
