When every court and legal recourse had been exhausted, defense attorneys still strove to find new means of gaining a respite for the condemned men. Four attorneys, hastening by automobile to Williamstown to lay an appeal for stay before Justice George W.

They had no hope of making a profit on their invest- ment and planned to operate the plant at cost. That was in 1926. Last June they asked permission to quit. They -had not taken in enough money to pay their expenses, they alleged, an additional out- lay of capital was necessary to re- pair the plant to keep it in opera- tion. Accounting» experts for the commission found that their plea that they were losing money was ju: fied. Proposal Objected to Several Center residents objected to the proposal to shut down the plant, contending that they had wired their houses and bought elec- trical appliances and did not want to be left in darkness. There were 28 consumers. Although the rate at Center was very high the commission held that a rate increase would not substan- tially help matters and gave its opin- fon that the only solution is for each consumer to become a stockholders in the company and to establish rate: which will proyide for. operating penses. depreciation and proper main- tenancé. .
