Would More Than Cover Cost There is a movement under way in South Norwalk. on the part of a large number of prominent citlsens. which will probably consummate Ill a short ‘ time in the installation of a citizens' hygsla ice making plant. The present ‘5 high price charged for ice is the cause of the movement. and It has caused - much dissatisfaction among the people who are obliged to have ice. and makes it practically prohibitive for a large number of panic who. in previous years. had been accustomed to it. When the Adams Brothers factory was first offered for sale. a syndicate of business men thought of buying it to use the ground floor for a hygeia ice plant, and thou rent the upper floors to the Dreycr Hat Company. the present occupants. When at the second sale. these citizens was in- formed" that the DI eyer Company de- sired to purchase the property It was thought best for the interests of the city not to bid against them There is a general feeling of dissat isfgction existing today at the exorbi- tant rice charged for ice, including the y‘geia, which. it is claimed, can be sold to families at a fair profit at 40 cents a hundred pounds; to. larger consumers, at it per ton, and at the pi I: for :3 a ton. here‘ is now- a movement on foot to interest a nun ber of people In a oonsumers' ice plIt t.
