A mod- ern plant would produce coke and several other products as well as the gas, and would make it pos- sible to séll the gas at a price much lower than that now char- ed in Oshawa, despite the fact that the plant is operating with a sur- plus under the present prices charged for gas, the members of thie Commission seemed unanimous in feeling that the price should be reduced to a level more equal to that in other municipalities, People Must Vote Any disposition of the gas plant question would have to be voted upon by the ratepayers of the eity. If is was decided that the city should make an expenditure of several thousand dollars to bring the plant up-to-date, it would pro- bably go to the people, and the Hydro Electric Power Commission of Ontario has stated strictly that the plant could not be sold without a vote of the peopie sanctioning the sale.
