The Administrative Board Is also
preparing statement showing that

One feature OF this saving will be
shown to have been in the purchase of

has started formidable competition
in this particular. and Will show. It
Is said. that considerable sums have
ben saved.
An extract from the report OF Sup
erintendent Trafford. of the Electrical
Department. Is interesting.
Since January l. 1919, the quantity
Of light upon the streets has been In
creased 20 per cent. and the number
OF lights in service so per cent. and
the net cost OF a given quantity of
light has been decreased more than
20 per cent.
I'VE expect to be able to report
this year that these results have
been accomplished without increasing
the net expenditures for operating
expenses a single dollar In excess Of
the amount expended In 1912.

In 1914 was somewhat higher than
other years owing to long period Of
low water in the river. In that year
~ per cent of power was generated
by steam, az compared with per
cent In 1918: hence the cost Of the
fuel and labor was higher"
In 1912 the amount expended for
operating was $35,S23.24, for 1850
million candlepower hours at an ope-
rating cost of SASS per million can
dlepower hour. In 1914 the CORE
spending figures were $39,l4S.36, for
