While the mayor and city coun cllmen, except K. M. Wilson, after bavins studied over the renewal ordinance to Kraut the Home Tela phone and -Telegraph company u JO-year. franchise, dating from Oc tober 23 next, the date the pres ent 10-year franchise expires, ap proved the new ordinance, deeming that it contained all proper safe guards to the .Medford public, ac tion last night was deferred be yond giving the ordinance its first reading, at tho behest of Mr. Wil son, who requested that a commit. - tee of five citizens be appointed by Mayor Pines to look over the tonus of the ordinance with the council license committee, acting In an advisory capacity, to see that It contained every safeguard for the people. .There was much discussion dur inn which the mayor and other councilmen held that the proced ure would be useless and unneces sary, pointing out that the council cqmrnltteo hud already endorsed the ordinance, and that investiga tion and . study by the councilmen had .shown that It was all right in every -regard, especially as the council' had nothing to do with rates and service, those functions being entirely in the hands of the public -service commission. Former City Attorney John II. Curkin. who was present, also di luted on the fact that the question of service and rates .rented solely with tho public service commission und that the city council only hud tho right to say where poles and wfres should be placed. It was also pointed out by the councilmen that the renewal ordi nance in question was practically the same as was the 10-year fran chise just about to expire, which, it was said, had proved satisfac tory all this time. Of course Councilman R. B. Ham mond, who is manager of the tele phone company, tool; no. part In the discussion, beyond to state that it had been (he policy of his com pany to always co operate witn the city, that that policy would con tinue, and -that he hoper there vou!d be.no unnecessary ifmny as the company had' already began work on its big expansion and im provement program. Kven Mr. Wilson had no fault to find with the expiring franchise or dinance, or the renewal ordinancp, yet he . said ho thought that as a matter of policy and precaution it would be better to have the opinion of outside citizens. ' ' Then his motion to have the mayor appoint a committee of five business men to act in. an advisory capacity was put to a vote.. The vote wus tied. .This put it up to Mayor Plies.tA.. coat the deciding vote, ahd saying that, as he cotiuld see no harm in such a procedure, ho voted yes. Orey,. Wing and Wil son voted for tho motion, and Col lilts, McKlhose and Kershaw against it. . . Mayor Pipes will appoint , the committee as soon as possible with the understanding that the com mittee will complete its investiga tion of the ordinance In time for it to be voted on at the next coun cil meeting, two weeks from now, or much sooner at a special meet ing if the committee can be ready. : The franchise was not exclusive, it was explained, and covers a pe riod of 10 years., The city is given control over the construction and repairing of all telephone plants and is protected In all matters of damages, etc.; during construction and maintenance. The city receives 10 free tele phones und $1000 in cash under the agreement, which is the same franchise under which the company has operated for. 10 years, with harmony on both sides. ; ."8 S o, Loe!
