LIGHT PLANT TO
ASK FLAT RATE

The city council will be asked to-
night to ratify an application of the
municipal light plant to the state pub
lie utilities commission to discontinue
the discounts allowed now on ligh.
and power bills.
Officials Of the plant ask for the in
crease in rates, made possible by the
elimination of the discounts, in order
that enough money can be set aside
to take care OF depreciation and re-
placements needed to keep the plant
at high state of efficiency.
Increase in coal costs in 1917
amounted to 100 percent over 1916,
and labor costs also have gone up,
light plant officials said A special
council committee and the board of
public works, after an investigation of
the situation. recommended the drop
ping of the discounts.
Light and power rates in Richmond
are mower than in almost any city in
Indiana. Some Of the power discounts
run as high as 33 percent and light
discounts run as high as 25 percent.
The state public utilities commits
sion is expected to act on the applica-
ton within thirty days.
