In that year, Hon. Mr. Conant and Mr, Frank Mason became mem- bers of the Oshawa City Council and devoted most of their efforts toc the promotion of the purchase of the electrical distribution system by the City of Oshawa from the HEP.O. The system was then in #2 most favourable earning position, netting a surplus of about $50,000.00 a year, which surplus was going {ic or particular benefit to Oshawa itself, Take Tail to Get Hide Because ofthe apparent tage of having any surplus avail- able for the Council proceeded towards its | objective and following an exhaus- tive amount of work and prelimin- | ary detail, the necessary by-laws and agreements were prepared, a vote of the electors was taken and | in accordance with its favourable | result, the City of Oshawa pur- | chased the electric system. In all | these negotiations with the HEP.C. | there 'was a desire, and eviry ef- fort was made to purchase the elec- | trical system without the gas plant. | at that time the gas plant was Tot profitable and the Council en-|¢g aeavoured to: purchase a splendid asset free 'from the entanglement | fot a Jesd favourable utility. How- | ever, it'was necessary "to take the | tailsto get the hide." purchase was finally complet - ly in 1020, the total purchase | price being $520,000. ~ $310,000. of | this: fepresented the purchase of | the "electric utility; $210,000. repre- | ented the purchase of the gas 'plant. The payment was effected by the city issuing 20 year De- benturés bearing an Ropiegste face value of $520,000. at 4% When this purchase rod been { finally completed, Hon. Mr. Conant and Mr. Mason became members of the newly constituted Public Utilities Commission. The Com- | mission, as can be imagined, now assumed a most important aspect | in municipal administration, Be- | cause of the unfavourable returns {irom the gas utility, however, the | | Public Utilities Commission soon | adopted a policy of disposing of the | Eas plant at the earliest opportun- | | ity. Gas Plant Sold In 1031, the Utilities Power and Light Company of Chicago became a prospective purchaser and as a result 'of the ensuing negotiations, the gas plant was sold to the On- | tario Shox Gas Company, its $214,832.48, being the | high, * it stood on the | the Joghl Commission. The | sale Was completed by .a cash: payment of $18,183.41, and the bal- ance of $196,640107 was to be paid {a period of years and was by a 'first mortgage on all | © the plant hd assets of the Com- pany in Oshawa. For a few years following 1031, the Onfario Shore Gas Company paid interest and instalments ac- «cording te 'the' obligation. How- | ever, in 1035, 'the Samuel Insull | Utilities empire collapsed and soon 'after the Utilities Power and Light Company went into receivership. With this financial support re- moved, the Ontario Shoe Gas Company was no longer able to meet its principal payments. The immediate expedient was an-ar- rangement with the City whereby the Gas Company would pay all surplus over to the City, the City having the right of audit and gen- | eral supervision. There were many | great problems faced by the City in financing. during this difficult period so that the Council pre- vailed upon the HEP.C. to defer for five years the principal pay- ments of the bonds held by them covering the apportioned cost of the gas plant. Arrears Pile Up The deferring of these payments, however, naturally resulted in a considerable amount of accrued arrears being owed bv the City of Oshawa to the HEPC. Early in the year 1940 these arrears amount« ed to $46,251.45, . The officials of the City of Osh- awa took the view this year that the situation should be clarified. The obligation of the City with re- spect to the gas plant was $164,- 81562 and the obligation in re- spect of the electric utility deben- tures was $108,491.54. According- ly, negotiations with. the H.E.P.C. for the purpose of arriving at a definite and, if possible, a favour- able settlement were undapistien, In his prior capacity as the Mayor of the City of Oshawa when the entire Eastern Ontario System was purchased by the Government in 1916, as one of those active in the purchase by the City of the electric and gas plants, and now as a member. of the Ontario Gov- ernment, the Honourable Mr. Con- ant was admirably qualified to sponsor discussion with the HEP.C. The = Attorney-General extended every co-operation and arranged a conference with the Chairman of the HEP, pr. T. F. Hogg, Mayor Anderson ang the Treasury offic- ials of the City in which Hon. Mr. Conant. himself. participated. ? Debt Reduced $54,815.62 This confayence and subs:quent discussions finally resulted in a substantial eduction being made to the City, At the outset of ne- | into the Treasury of the Eastern | Ontario System without any speci- | advan- |. the Oshawa system only, af 11 months of 1940 iron and steel production was up 58 per cent, tex- THE OLD HOME ETOWN _ THE OPERATOR OVER ar BELDEN CITY 1S TRYING TO GIVE ME SOME WAR NEWS-- BUT THE TELEGRAPA INSTRUMENT CANT TAKE \T ¥| WHEN HE GETS /A THOSE FOREIGN NAMES!

Under the proposal which now reaches a successful termin- atien. the HEP.C. az ants $110.00. in full settlement of the obligation of the City in respect of the gas utility. The obligation in the mat- ter of the electric utility is to be met at face value. Debentures amounting to $273,307.16 are to be liquidated by a payment of $218,- 401.54 which means a saving to the City of Oshawa of $54,815.62. * The city is definancing the whole matter by issuing new debentures maturing in six years in respect te the hydro plant and in 15 years in respect to the gas plant. The electric plant bonds sold at $99.23 at rates varying from 3% to 34% making a saving in interest of $2,- 161.03 while the bonds on the gas plant sold at $98.25 at rates varying from 3% in 1941-2, 3'4% in 1943-47 and 4% in 1948-55. The lower rate of interest on the gas plant bonds saves the city $26,766.20. The sale of the hydro electric bonds to yield 3.68% is ve lowes. of any bond ever sold in this munici- pality, The Times is informed.
