would place a tax on all publicly

! .M unicipally-owned utilities are
j now managed either by tho city

who are directly responsible to the!..
voters.
If the bills to tax municipal or
Publicly-ow u.-d utilities passed, it
would mean that Medford's water j

would have to pay a state tax: and
If the bill to Kovcin municipal
plains is passed il would mean
that those systems would be run (
by the public service commission.
-Mayor I'lpes speaks stroniily in i
opposition to these bills. dcclai'llIK j
that they are absurd In that tbeyi
would take the fixins of wilier
