Dear Sir: l don't believe there is

We all feel very much gratified at

The kind of work you are doing
there radiates-it benefits not only
Marion county and advertises it, but
a the same time it inspires the good
citizens of every other county in the
state to better things. | tell you
that you can do no greater work
than TO get all of the counties in the
state of Florida into competition to
see which could do the most good for
the benefit Of their various locali-
ties.
The folks down there in our dis
trict are showing the right spirit.
They have taken up your plans and
as you we'll know will soon put in a
week at working two OF the main
roads to the west Of SummerfeId.
You should have the support OF
every man who is interested in bet

il Is stated that this will be the low

this rate IS approximately near the
cost OF production. But this rate

! have seen the statement that in
our little city the present cost OF
producing current is three cents per

it to Y or cents. II is certain our

have a day service which is at pres

day consumption is very limited.
Would il not be municipal wisdom

1t is the opinion of this writer. in
which he may be wrong Of course,
that four distinct benefits to our

reduction-say to or 3 y cents

would adopt electricity for heating

cooking methods and food combina-
tons would take the place of what
we now enjoy CD 4. Ocala would
leap at once into public favor as a
place Of residence, and for small
manufacturing plants who demand
power at low rate.
| know it is contended that the
first cost of current is not the
whole cost. But it should be borne
in mind that the fixed charge and
overhead expense are practically the
same, outside of increased fuel re-
quired, whether the output be 10000
X. w. or 100000 and a 10 per
cent profit or 100000 is equal to
100 per cent profit on 10000.
That's the way it looks to me- I
may be mistaken. Those having in
innate knowledge of cost and condi-
tions may be sure l am, and able to
demonstrate it. If so, l am glad to
stand corrected" But will con-
tinue to stand in the attitude of one
who believes that all public utilities
should be operated, not to make
money but to tighten the burdens
and serve the public (the real owner
of such utilities) in the best possible
way. The last word has not been
said, however, on any side of the
question at issue.
Respectfully,
Ocala, Nov. II. J. B. Ley.
