ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
WAKEFIELD
Municipal Light Board
AND MANAGER
OF THE MUNICIPAL LIGHT PLANT
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
298
Report of the Municipal Light Board
The Wakefield Municipal Light Commission presents herewith its 19th Annual Report for the year ending December 31, 1912.
The work of the Board during the past year has been routine, and on account of matters needing special attention has also taken more time than is usually required in connection with the management of the plant.
The population of Wakefield for the year 1895, which was the first complete year during which the plant was operated by the town, was 8,304. The present population is estimated at nearly 12,000. Among this increase in our population there are many who are not familiar with the careful consideration which the voters of the town in former years gave to the question of municipal ownership of the water, gas and electric light plants, when these franchises were finally acquired by the town, and there are also many who have always been opposed to municipal ownership.
The same feeling of unrest which has prevailed throughout the United States has manifested itself in Wakefield, and notwith- standing the great criticism that the people are making of the railroads, the express companies, and the telephone and telegraph ·companies, there are those who are ready to advocate the retiring of Wakefield from the field of municipal ownership in gas and electricity,notwithstanding the treatment the people are receiving from quasi-public corporations who control competition.
This constant agitation by the opponents of municipal owner- ship who seize upon the slightest excuse to create dissatisfaction, and the danger of the introduction of politics into the manage- ment of these town affairs, are the principal things that threaten the success of municipal ownership. Wakefield is to be congratu- lated in being remarkably free from the latter danger during the past management of its public enterprises.

At the Reading Town Meeting held in March, 1912, the com- mittee of that town, appointed at the meeting in November, con- sisting of the Selectmen and the Light Commissioners, to which the question of granting a franchise for furnishing gas to the Town of Reading by the Town of Wakefield, was referred, made a report and action upon the entire matter was postponed by the Town of Reading.
In June, 1912, Reading again gave this matter consideration and, acting under an article in the Town Warrant, dated June 25, voted to anthorize the Selectmen to grant a franchise to the Town of Wakefield for supplying gas to the inhabitants of the Town of Reading under a certain agreement.
Accordingly your commissioners had articles inserted in the Town Warrant dated July 15, 1912. After much discussion it was voted that the commissioners be authorized to supply Read- ing with gas at the town line. In accordance with this vote the following letter was sent to the Selectmen of the Town of Reading :
WAKEFIELD, MASS., Aug. 2, 1912.
MESSRS.
ALBERT W. CLARK,
FREDERICK D. MERRILL,
EDWIN L. HUTCHINSON, Selectmen Town of Reading.
GENTLEMEN :
The Wakefield Municipal Light Commissioners, according to agreement, brought the matter of authorization for them to sign the agreement which the Town of Reading authorized your Board to sign, for the establishment of a distributing plant for gas in the Town of Reading and the furnishing of gas for the same, by the Town of Wakefield, before the Town of Wakefield in a Town Meeting assembled.
The Town of Wakefield refused to authorize the Wakefield Municipal Light Commissioners to sign this agreement, but authorized the Municipal Board to furnish gas only to Reading at the Town line between Reading and Wakefield.

We are of the opinion that this decision was largely influenced by doubts brought forward in regard to certain legal aspects in the matter.
Very truly yours,
EDWIN C. MILLER,
Chairman, Municipal Board.
On July 1, 1912, acting under instructions from the People's Gas & Electric Co., of Stoneham. the furnishing of gas to the Town of Reading at the town line was discontinued by the Town of Wakefield. In October, a franchise having been granted to the Malden & Melrose Gas Light Co., by the town of Reading for furnishing gas to its inhabitants, your Commissioners again turned on the gas at the town line, and are now furnishing gas for this company to use in supplying the inhabitants of the Town of Reading.
On June 25th the resignation of Mr. A. B. Morton as Man- ager of the Wakefield Plant, to take effect on August 3, was re- ceived. This was accepted with reluctance. As he had received an unsolicited offer from the National Gas & Electric Co. of Chi- cago to become Superintendent of their plant at Rome, New York, at such an advance in salary which your Board could not meet, we had no other course open but to accept it. During Mr. Morton's five years' management of the Wakefield Plant he did much able work, and his courtesy and consideration to the town's people and to the employees, as well as his strict attention to his duties, was fully appreciated by the Board on behalf of the Town.
