rum AkC OhOsg
Company. This report for the year 1920
shows the gross earnings. operating ex-
penses, etc, of the combined properties. "
In commenting on a tabulation OF
earnings and operating expenses, the
report says:
"a study Of the foregoing figures re-
veals the fact that although there was
an increase Of $62s, 994.S9 in gross earn
ings in the year 1920, the maintenance
and operation increased $500, 6S5.47 and
the taxes S107, 664.35, or a total Increase
Of S917, 349S2 in expenses, rIaking d net
loss OF S2sS, 35493"
The increase in maintenance of ways
and structures and of equipment is on
account Of 81 per cent Of gross earnings
being expended as required by the pub
lie service commission. The increase Of
$500, $40 % in operation of power plant is
largely due to the enormous increase in
the price Of coal during 1920. In 1919
the minimum price of coal delivered at
the power house in indianapolis was
81 % per ton and maximum price S3.S7
per ton with an average price of $40
per ton. while in 1920 the minimum price
was 1885, maximum $3.50, and average
price $50 per ton. There was also an
increase u HedIly - per Nenl III Inc
wages of power house employees In 1920
as compared with 1919. The great in
crease in cost of coal made the pur-
chased power correspondingly high.
OPERATION INCREASE
LAID TO LABOR.
1.-THE increase of $3.50 1s.64 in operation
Of cars was principally caused by the
advance In wages of conductors, motor
men. car house men, etc. On April /,
1920, the schedule Of wages of platform
men, which was 81 cents TO ~ cents per
hour, was raised TO 40 cents to IS cents
