Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-06-02

TWENTY YEARS ago this month
! Public Service Corporation Of New
Jersey was organized and started business.
On this happy occasion, this birthday
anniversary, marking the completion OF
two decades Of service, the Corporation
and its subsidiary operating companies
desire to express their sincere appreciation
of the patronage and support, the coop
Grafton and good will so generously ex-
tended by the people whom they have
been privileged to serve.
During the last twenty years the de-
velopment Of the three great essential
utilities, Transportation, Gas, Electricity,
has contributed immeasurably to the up
building and prosperity Of New Jerseyand
to the comfort and convenience Of her
people.
Public Service Corporation Of New
Jersey and its subsidiary operating COM
panies feel justified, at this time, in refer
ring with pardonable pride to the part they
have played in providing these necessary
services, thereby aiding in the growth OF
the State, promoting its industrial and
commercial activities and making it a
more desirable place in which to live and
do business.
When Public Service Corporation OF
New Jersey was formed in June, Nine
teen-three, there were taken by pur-
chase or lease a number Of utility accompanies
which were supplying street railway, gas
and electric services in some one hundred
municipalities having a total population OF
approximately n million. These prop
critics were r~eorganized and strengthened
other properties were acquired and SUBJ
sidiary operating companies were tomed
to carry on and develop the railway, the
gas and the electric business, respectively,
as separate entities.
For twenty years the work Of develop
ment and extension and betterment has
continued with undated zeal, the respec-
tive company arrangements ever striving
to increase the quantity, improve hequal-
tv and elevate the standard Of service to
the people.
And results have been achieved; results

beneficial to the people OF the State and
gratifying to the Cooperation and its SUBJ
sidiary operating companies.
Twenty years ago there were only
10000 electric meters in use in the terri
tory then served by Public Service. To-
day Public Service Electric Company is
supplying electric service through some
100000 meters.
Twenty years ago there were only
1884 gas meters in use in the territory
then served by Public Service. Today
Public Service Gas Company is supply
ing gas service through some 100000
meters.
Twenty years ago there were carried
on the street cars operated in the territory
then served by Public Service an average
Of 563, 900 passengers a day. Today
Public Service Railway Company carries
daily average Of 100000 passengers.
These figures tell only part Of the story.
The kilowatt hours Of electric energy pro-
duced yearly have been multiplied eight
fold, the quantity Of gas more than three
fold. and the miles and hours of transporta-
ton service have been tremendously
AUGMENTED. The total number Of munich
palities served has mounted to two hun
dred and twenty-eight with a population
more than doubling that served twenty
years ago, and the annual gross revenue
of the Corporation and its subsidiary oper-
ating companies has grown from less than
900 in Nineteen-three to more
than SOL ,UUU,UUU last year.
That it is not all income" however,
and that the "outgo" of the Corporation
and its subsidiary operating companies,
aside from the services they render, has
played a material part in upbuilding the
communities they serve, is evidenced by
the fact that during the last 20 years these
companies have paid in taxes, have return
ed to the people in cash, haye reduced
the municipal levies on other individual
taxpayers, in the aggregate. by the stag
gering sum Of $56,048,374.22.
For the full year Of 1904 the total tax;

 SPEED TRIAL TRIP.
Answers Each New Call Of The Skipper Like A
 Thoroughbred

ABOARD THE S s. LEVIATHAN, June 2I.-The Leviathan passes all expectations as her trial cruise pro gresses.
 Experts aboard who are studying the giant liners every quiver as the speed is let out notch by notch, agreed today:
 "The British owners of transatlantic liners are going to be up against the hardest proposition they have met in the north Atlantic.
 The big United States shipping board liner answers like a thor oughbred each successive call for speed. In the semi-tropics here we are speeding towards Abaco Island, which will be passed at a speed of % knots an hour tonight. The test is more severe than the Leviathan will be called upon to face on her regular run
 The vessel will carry it's guests through the Bahama Islands during the night, and Friday her prov will be turned northward. It now is esti- mated the much discussed trip will cost less than the s12o,00o provided for in estimates.

 Booze Will Be Con-

NEW YORK, June 21.-"No matter who has sealed any liquor brought into New York on transatlantic ships, it is our duty to board the ships, break the seals and confiscate the alceho ollie beverages"
