o
Financial Condition of the Light
. Plant.
The citizens of Latta will be glao
to learn that the finances of the
light plant are now in good shape.
mo >juiiiinimiuuuia, u,. x>. oerry, Xj.
A. Manning. Jr., and R. R. Humphries
have been giving the matter of
the operation of the plant close attention
and now have in the treasury
more than enough funds to pay all
outstanding bills except the purchase
price of the tank of fuel oil Just received.
They have in the sinking fund
over four thousand dollars. The bonds
outstanding on account of the light
plant amount to $22,000.00 but deducting
the amount of the sinking
fund of over $4,000.00 leaves a net
indebtedness of less than $18,000.00.
The commissioners feel very much
gratified over the fact that the light
plant is now on a paying basis and at
their first meeting a resolution was
passed that from June the first the
commissioners will receive their res
idcntial lights free and they hope that
by the beginning of the neaw year,
19 22, they will be able to give a reduced
rate to the customers of the
plant.
