Dear Sir:
The Standard Oil Company Of
Louisiana is adxious to afford the
people living in Opelousas an op-
portunity to purchase oil products
at better prices than can possibly
be offered your people under the
present ordinance governing the
storage of oil and petroleum. AS
you know, one of the great fac
tors in the retail price Of oil
would be the manner in which
the oil is handled and the dis
lance that same must be trans
ported. Under the existing Or
dinance it would be impossible
for our company to establish a
bulk station within the city linn
its, as Section 2 of the Oil Stor-
age Ordinance provides that such
tanks may not be placed closer
than 200 feet from the adjoining
property line. AS this w o u d
make US purchase about 4 acres
of land, the cost Of the land
would be prohihitiye.
Our company has established

To the Hon. Mayor and Board of Alder

Gentlemen: ] herewith submit you
my report for the month of Sept. 1917, as
follows:
Expenses

ptoyees S420 90
Extra labor employed -6775
Fuel oil used 975 barrels 1857 so

Total $18l5 %

From Water service 1853 10
From Public service 286 Is
From material and labor 81 81
Total s14b4 80
Loss for the month S $50 So
The increased loss is due to an
increase of 18c per barrel in the
price of oil. / wish to report that
since taking charge of your plant
II have recaiibrated about 100
electric meters and repaired
about 80 water metere.
There are now 26 electric light
customers that have no meters
and these should be provided
with meters as there is some loss
of revenue here. Very little has
been done toward repairing
water meters as most of the ones
in service are so badly out OF re-
pair as to call for repair parts
that we have not got IN stock
