 (I) GAS AND ELECTRICITY. 
 Authorizing Contract for Mixed Natural and Artificial Gas* 
 
 AN ORDINANCE authorizing the Mayor of the City of Louis- 
 ville on behalf of said City to enter into and execute a con- 
 tract with the Louisville Gas and Electric Company, 
 
 authorizing said company to supply a mixture of natural 
 and artificial gas to its consumers in the City of Louisville. 
 
 Be it ordained by the General Council of the City of LomsviUs : 
 
 That the Mayor of the City of Louisville for and on bdhalf 
 
 of the said city be, and he is hereby authorized, empowered 
 and directed to enter into and execute a contract with the 
 Louisville Gas and Electric Company, a corporation, in words 
 and figures as follows, to-wit: 
 
 THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into this 
 
 day of January, 1920, by and between the City of Louisville, a 
 municipal corporation, hereinafter called the "City," party 
 of the first part, and the Louisville Gas and Electric Company, 
 a corporation, of Louisville, Kentucky, hereinafter called the 
 "Gas Company," party of the second part, 
 
 WITNESSETH, that whereas, the Gas Company repre- 
 sents that it has installed a pipe line five (5) miles in length, 
 and six (6) miles of fiefd lines to a new natural gas field in 
 Johnson and Magoffin counties, Kentucky, and has connected 
 said line with its main line, and installed additional com- 
 
GAS AND ELECTRICITY 
 
 pressor machinery, at a cost to the Gas Company of approxi- 
 mately one hundred and fifty tliousand ($150»000) dollars, 
 whereby it is now furnishing by reason of said connection, an 
 additional three million (3,000,000) cubic feet of natural gas 
 per day to the City of Louisville, and 
 
 WHEREAS, said Gas Company represents that during the 
 present winter it has so far furnished twenty-five per cent 
 (26%) more gas per day on very cold days to its consumers, 
 than during any previous winter, and 
 
 WHEREAS, approximately ninety-five per eent (d5%) of 
 said emsumers are wholly dependent upon gas for the purpose 
 of cooking, and a large number for heating their homes, and 
 it is desirable to meet and remedy the lack of a sufficient supply 
 of natural gas to meet the demand in the only way feasible at 
 this time, namely, by such use of artificial gas as will relieve 
 existing conditions, and 
 
 WHEREAS, the Gas Company has agreed to manufacture 
 and supply such amount of artificial gas as is provided herein 
 and upon the terms specified herein ; 
 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in eonsideration of the premises and 
 in order to remedy the aforesaid conditions, it is agreed by and 
 between the parties as follows: 
 
 § 1. When, by reason of low temperature, the demand for 
 gas exceeds twelve million (12,000,000) cubic feet per day, 
 and provided that not less than twelve million (12,000,000) 
 cubic feet per day of natural gas is at that time being furnished 
 daily to its consumers (unless prevented by a temporary 
 breakage in the pipes of the company or floods or other Acts 
 of God beyond the control of the Gas Company, the Gas 
 Inspector, or other agents and inspectors hereafter to be 
 appointed by the Mayor for this purpose, to be the sole judge 
 as to whether or not such emergency exists) the Gas Company 
 shall have the right to manufacture and mix with its natural 
 gas, not to exceed three million five hundred thousand (8,500,- 
 000) cubic feet per day, of artificial gas, and to furnish such 
 mixed gas to its consumers. It is represented by the Gas 
 Company that in order to manufacture artificial gas, it is 
 necessary to keep the artificial coal gas plant of the Gas 
 Company hi contmuous operation on a minimum basis of seven 
 
 GAS AND ELECTRICITY 
 
 1255 
 
 hundred and fifty thousand (750,000) cubic feet per day for 
 the reason that it requires approximately two weeks to raise 
 the necessary temperature in said plant to produce artificial 
 gas, and if the production was entirely stopped there would 
 be an enforced delay of at least two weeks before the produc- 
 tion could be again resumed, and for this reason it is agreed 
 by the parties hereto that at all times during the continuance 
 of this contract as much as ^even hundred and fifty thousand 
 (750,000) cubic feet per day of such artificial gas may be 
 mixed with the natural gas furnished by the Gas Company, 
 provided that not less than twelve million (12,000,000) cubic 
 feet per day of natural gas is at all times being furnished 
 daily to its consumers, when demanded. 
 
 {2. The natural gas now furnished to its consumers by 
 
 the Gas Company averages about eleven hundred and fifty 
 (1,150) British thermal units to the cubic foot at the point of 
 consumption. The artificial gas manufactured and furnished 
 hereunder shall not have less than five hundred and fifty 
 (560) British thermal units to the cubic foot; and shall comply 
 with the standards and regulations of the Bureau of Stand- 
 ards, Washington, D. C, as to purity; and that the quality 
 of mixed gas furnished to its consumers hereunder shall not 
 be less than one thousand (1,000) British thermal units to the 
 cubic foot as furnished at the point of consumption, unless by 
 reason of the temporary shortage of natural gas caused by 
 temporary breakage of pipes, floods or other acts of God, 
 beyond the control of the company, the proportion of artificial 
 gas should thereby be temporarily greater during such time. 
 The Gas Inspector, or other agents and inspectors hereafter 
 to be appointed by the Mayor for this purpose, shall be the 
 sole judge as to whether or not there has been such temporary 
 breakage of pipes, floods or other acts of God, beyond the con- 
 trol of the Company. 
 
 It is further agreed that the heat units and volume of the 
 said natural and artificial gas shall be tested at such times 
 and places as may be desired by the city, and the Gas Com- 
 pany agrees and cons^ts that in nnaking aaid tests the Gas 
 Inspector of the City of Louisville may examine the plant, 
 records, books, appliances, measuring stations and machinery 
 
1256 
 
 GAS AND ELECTRICrnr 
 
 af said Gas Ck>inpany. If any of the tests made by the Gas 
 Inspector show that the quality, heat units, quantity, volume 
 or purity of the natural, artificial or mixed gas is not up to 
 
 any of the requirements as stated herein, then in that event 
 this agreement may be declared void at the option of the 
 Mayor. 
 
 §3. It is further agreed between the parties that the 
 artificial gas and mixed gas authorized hereunder shall be 
 furnished to its consumers by the Gas Company at jbhe same 
 price now charged and allowed by its franchise for natural 
 gas ; except that where any single consumer uses mor6 than 
 one hundred thousand (100,000) cubic feet of such mixed gas 
 per consumer's month, and not in excess of two hundred thou- 
 sand (200,000) cubic feet of such gas per consumer's month, 
 an additional charge of twenty (20c) per thousand (1,000) 
 cubic feet on the entire amount used, may be made up by the 
 Gas Company against such consumers, and where any single 
 consumer uses mixed gas in excess of two hundred thousand 
 (200,000) cubic feet per consumer's month, an extra charge 
 of thirty (30c) cents per thousand (1,000) cubic feet on the 
 entire amount used may be made by the Gas Company against 
 such consumer. The Gas Company represents to the City that 
 only approximately three hundred and one (301) consumers 
 use more than one hundred thousand (100,000) cubic feet per 
 month during extremely cold weather and that the rate will 
 only effect approximately six tenths (6/10) of one (1) p«r 
 cent of all its consumers. 
 
 §4. It is expressly agreed and understood between the 
 parties hereto, that this agreement shall in no wise affect or 
 be construed to affect the existing franchise of the Gas CJom- 
 pany, or any of its terms, or conditions ; and shall not in any 
 way affect or. be construed to affect any pending litigation 
 between the City and the Gas Company; and shall not be 
 deemed to be in any way an agreement, determination or 
 admission on the part of the City that the Gas Company has 
 used all reasonable precautions and measures necessary to 
 furnish natural gas as provided for by its said franchise, or 
 is unable to supply natural gas under its said franchise 
 through no fault of its own in sufficient quantities to meet the 
 
 GAS AND ELEGTRICmr 
 
 1257 
 
 demand for same; the sole purpose of this agreement being 
 to authorize the Gas Company, during the times mentioned 
 herdn and upon the terms and ccmditions mentioned herein, 
 
 to supplement the supply of natural gas as herein stipulated. 
 
 § 5. This contract shall expire and be of no effect, and the 
 Gas Company shall have no rights hereunder, on and after 
 April 1, 1920. Approved Fehrmry 6, 1920.

 Au^mrizing Contract for Mixed Natural and Artificial Gas. 
 
 AN ORDINANCE authorizing the Mayor of the City of Louis- 
 ville on bebalf of said city to enter into and execute a o(mtract 
 with the Louisville Gas and Electric Company, authorizing 
 said company to supply a mixture of natural and artificial 
 gas to its consumers in the City of Louisville. 
 
 Be it ordained by the General Council of the City of Louisville: 
 
 That the Mayor of the City of Louisville for and on behalf 
 
 of said city be, and he is hereby authorized, empowered, and 
 directed to enter into and execute a contract with the Louis- 
 ville Gas and Electric Company, a corporation, in words and 
 figures as follows, to-wit: 
 
 THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into this 
 
 day of , 1920, by and between the CITY 
 
 OF LOUISVILLE, a municipal corporation, hereinafter called 
 the *'City," party of the first part, and the LOUISVIU^E 
 GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY, a corporation of Louis- 
 ville, Kentucky, hereinafter called the "Gas Company", party 
 of the second part; 
 
 WITNESSETH, that whereas the Gas Company pursuant 
 to Section 12 of its franchise has given written notice to the 
 Mayor, the Board of Public Works and the General Council, 
 
 that it has taken all reasonable precautions and measures 
 necessary to furnish natural gas sufficient to meet the demand 
 for same in the City of Louisville and that it is furnishing 
 largely in mess of twelve million (12,000,000) cubic feet of 
 
1268 
 
 GAS AND ELECTRICITY 
 
 natural gas per day, and that through no fault of its own it 
 is unable to supply natural gas in sufficient quantities to meet 
 the demand for same, and that it is necessary to use a material 
 quantity of manufactored gas hi order to supplement its 
 supply of natural gas, and 
 
 WHEREAS, it appears from an investigation made by 
 the Board of Public Works of the City of Louisville, that the 
 Gas Company has taken the following precautions and meas- 
 ures to furnish natural gas to the city, and made the foUow- 
 ing improvements and developments: 
 
 (a) An 8 inch pipe line, 28 miles in length, has been built 
 from the present line at Sitka, Kentucky, to Maytown, Ken- 
 tucky, in Floyd county, and necessary compressor stations 
 and connections installed. It has drilled a number of wells 
 in this territory and is now drilling an additional number of 
 wells in the effort to obtain a larger supply of gas. The Com- 
 pany is now obtaining approximately two million (2,000,000) 
 cubic feet per day from this field which will later be increased 
 to approximately five million (5,000,000) cubic feet per day 
 after January 1. All the operations in these fidds are cm- 
 ducted in the name of the Pennagrade Oil ft Gas Company, 
 but under the supervision and direction of the Louisville Gas 
 and Electric Company. The entire expense is being borne by the 
 local company. 
 
 (b) The local company has completed a compressor or 
 booster station of three units on its mahi Ihie at Whichester, 
 Ky., being a point about midway between the West Vir- 
 ginia border line and Lrouisville. This booster station in- 
 creases the capacity of its main line from twelve million 
 (12,000,000) to eighteen million (18,000,000) or twenty mil- 
 lion (20,000,000) cubic feet par day. 
 
 (c) Last winter the Gas Company built a new pipe line 
 7 miles in length, from the Evans g'as fields at Win, Ky., 
 in Johnson county, to their main line. Since last winter the 
 company has installed an additional compressor on this line. 
 TMs development makes an additional supply of three and 
 one half million (3,500,000) cubic feet of gas per day available 
 for the City of liouisville. 
 
 (d) The Gas Company has entered into a contract with 
 the United Fuel & Gas Company of West Virginia, the pro- 
 
 GAS AND ELECTRICITY 
 
 1269 
 
 ducing company from whom it gets its source of supply from 
 West Virginia, to pay an additional charge of 6 cents per 
 thousand (1,000) cubic feet for the natural gas obtained from 
 this company, provided the United Company furnishes from 
 its field twelve million (12,000,000) cubic feet of gas per day 
 when needed in this city. ^ 
 
 (e) The Gas Company is still making every effort to ob- 
 tain new gas and is constantly on the lookout for new gas 
 fields and it affirms its intention to secure additional gas as 
 soon as sufficient amounts of gas have been developed to justify 
 the expenditure. 
 
 The improvements above mentioned cost as follows : 
 
 Win pipe line and compressor station, etc. $ 160,000 
 
 Pennagrade pipe line and compressor station, etc. 850,000 
 
 Winchester Booster Station „ 240,000 
 
 Making a. total of. $1,250,000 
 
 AND WHEREAS, the Gas Company has agreed to manu- 
 facture and supply such amount of artificial gas as is provided 
 herein and upon the terms specified herein; 
 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and 
 in order to relieve existing conditions among the users of gas 
 in this city and to meet and remedy, during the period stated 
 herein, the lack of a sufficient supply of natural gas to meet 
 the demand, it is agreed by and between the parlies as follows: 
 
 § 1. When, by reason of low temperature, the demand for 
 gas exceeds twelve million (12,000,000) cubic feet per day, and 
 provided that not less than twelve million (12,000,000) cubic 
 feet per day of natural gas is at that time being furnished 
 daily to its consumers (unless prevented by a temporary 
 breakage in the pipes of tiie company or floods or other aete 
 of God beyond the control of the Gas Company, the Gas In- 
 spector, or other agents and inspectors, hereafter to be ap- 
 pointed by the Mayor for this purpose, to be the sole judge 
 as to whether or not such emergency exists), the Gas Company 
 shall have the right to manufacture and mix with its natural 
 Ws, not to exceed four million five hundred thousand 
 (4,600,000) cubic feet per day of artificial gas, and to furnish 
 such mixed gas to its consumers. The Gas Company hereby 
 
1980 
 
 GAS AND ELBCTRICmr 
 
 agrees to furnish said amount of four million five hundred 
 thousand (4,600,000) cubic feet of gas at all times when made 
 necessary by the demand. 
 
 §2. The heating value of the artificial gas furnished 
 hereunder shall not be less than 550 British thermal units to 
 the cubic foot and the heating value of the mixed gas fur- 
 nished hereunder shall be at all times not less than 950 British 
 thermal units to the cubic foot at the point of consumption, 
 unless by reason of the temporary shortage of natural gas 
 caused by temporary breakage of pipes, floods or other acts 
 of God beyond the control of the company, the proportion of 
 artificial gas should thereby be temporarily greater during 
 such time. The Gas Inspector, or other ag^ts and inspectors 
 hereafter to be appointed by the Mayor for this purpose, shall 
 be the sole judge as to whether or not there has been such 
 temporary breakage of pipes, floods or other acts of God, be- 
 yond the control of the company. Such mixed gas furnished 
 shall comply with the standards and regulations of the Bureau 
 of Standards, Washington, D. C, as to purity. 
 
 It is further agreed that the heat units and volume of the 
 said natural and artificial gas and tiie purity thereof shall be 
 tested by the Gas Company at such times and places as may 
 be designated by the city and a record kept of such tests, and 
 the Gas Inspector of the city shall test the heat units and 
 volume of the said natural and artificial gas and the purity 
 thereof, and the Gas Company agrees and consents that in 
 making said tests the Gas Inspector of the City of Louisville 
 may examine the records of the tests made by the Gas Com- 
 pany, the plant, records, books, appliances, measuring sta- 
 tions, and machinery of said Gas Company. If any of the 
 tests made by the Gas Inspector show that the quality, heat 
 units, quantity, volume or purity of the natural, artificial or 
 mixed gas is not up to any of the requirements as stated 
 herein, then and in that event this agreement may be declared 
 void at the option of the Mayor. 
 
 §3. It is further agreed between the parties that the 
 artificial gas and mixed gas authorized hereunder shall be 
 furnished to its consumers by the Gas Company at the same 
 price now charged and allowed by its franchise for natural 
 
 GAS AND ELECTRICITY

 reason of the temporary shortage of natuml gas caused by 
 temporary breakaige of pq>es, fk>od^ or other acts of Gk>d beyond

 "Kentucky Statutes 2988: (Owners and Fiduciaries to re- 
 turn lists— Proceedings in Case of Failure). Every person 
 owning or holding taxable property, in his own right, or as a 
 fiduciary, guardian or agent, shall return to the assessor, or 
 his assistant, a true list of such property, real and personal 
 upon blanks therefor prepared by the Assessor, in the form 
 prescribed by ordinance, together with the value of all per- 
 sonalty, and make oath before said assessor or one of his 
 assistants. Should the assessor conclude that in any list so filed 
 the taxpayer has either omitted to list any of his property 
 subject to taxation, or has valued any property so listed too 
 low, the assessor may assess the property so omitted, or raise 
 the valuation of the property which he considers to be assessed 
 too k>w, and shall thereupon send notice through the mail to 
 the owner or holder either that he has assessed the property 
 omitted, or raised the valuation of the property assessed too 
 low, as the case may be. 
 
 "Any person thus notified may, within fifteen days after 
 the mailing of a notice to him, file in the assessor's office a 
 complaint either that the property which the assessor has thus 
 assessed, is not subject to assessment, or that the valuation 
 which the assessor has put upon his property is too high, as 
 the case may be. If any person file such a complaint within said 
 time the assessment shall not become binding, nor shall any 
 bill be issued thereon until it be passed upon by the Board of 
 Equalization, as other such matters are passed upon by said 
 Board. 
 
 "In case of the failure of any one to return a list of his

 Providing for Conditioiis Under Which Home Telephone 
 
 Company May Operate. 
 
 AN ORDINANCE prescribing the terms and conditions under 
 wiiich the Louisville Home Telephone Company may 
 operate its telephone systena, and use the public ways in 
 the City of Louisville, for the period of one year ; and re- 
 quiring that upon the failure of said company to comply 
 ^ith the conditions hereof, it shall remove its lines, poles 
 and equipment from the public ways of said city; and pro- 
 viding penalties for violations hereof. 
 
 WHEREAS, the franchise of the Louisville Home Tele- 
 phone Company has expired, and no new franchise has been 
 granted it; and 
 
 WHEREAS, there are now two telephone systems in the 
 City of Louisville operated under separate ownerships and 
 managements (one of which is that of the Louisville Home 
 Telephone Company), with the result that there is much dupli- 
 cation of telephone service, and the expense and annoyance of 
 such duplicate operation is burdoisome upon the public, and 
 it is believed that a consolidation or merger of said systems 
 would be of distinct advantage, not only to the people of Louis- 
 ville, but to the owners of said systems as well, and that there 
 
1442 
 
 TELEPHONE RATES 
 
 should be only one telephone system in said city with proper 
 reg^ulations thereof as to rates and service, and, 
 
 WHEREA'S, if a consolidation or merger of said systems 
 may be had upon proper terms, and within the period herein 
 set forth, it will be unnecessary for a new franchise to be 
 granted or sold to the Lbuisville Home Telephone Company, 
 
 and, 
 
 WHEREAS, if it should finally be determined that a new 
 franchise should be granted to the Louisville Home Telephone 
 Company, because of the fluctuating condition of prices at this 
 time and the abnormal business conditions which yet obtain 
 following the war and its close, it is very difficult to now de- 
 termine what would be just and proper rates for such telephone 
 service for a new franchise period, and at, or near, the close 
 of the period herein named, it is believed that prices and busi- 
 ness conditions will be much mm staMe than at present, and 
 that if it is then determined that such new franchise should be 
 granted, it will be easier for the General Council to then de- 
 termine what are the just and equitable rates to be provided 
 therein; Therefore: 
 
 Be it ordamed by the General CouncU of the City of LouiaviUe: 
 
 § 1. That the Louisville Home Telephone Company may 
 operate its telephone system in the City of Louisville and may 
 use the public ways of said City in connection with such opera- 
 tion, for one year next ensuing after the enactment and ap- 
 proval of this ordinandi on condition— and only upon the 
 condition-^that said Con^pany ediall charge and collect for its 
 telephone service in said City, for said period, rates not exceed- 
 ing the maximum rates set forth in section two f2) hereof; and 
 during said period it shall be unlawful for said Company to 
 charge or collect any rates in excess of such maximum rates ; 
 and said Company shall not be authorized, nor shall it have 
 the right, to continue or maintain its said telephone service in 
 saidVCity for said period, or for any portion thereof, if it shall 
 fail or refuse to comply, in all respects, with the provisions of
