Edward Davis Bass (March 28, 1873 – March 12, 1960) was a grocer who became mayor of Chattanooga, Tennessee in 1927. He held the office for nearly 20 years. Health problems forced him to refrain from pursuing the office in 1946, and he ultimately had to resign three months early. He was quite proud of the fact that during his term, at the height of the Great Depression, Chattanooga was one of the few cities to not default on its debts and was able to keep paying city employees without a raise on taxes.
