cost 100000 to run the Department
Of Public Works for the past two
years. The truth is that the total
net cost Of running the department
since November 1st, 1910, to August
81, 1924, has been $1,057, 443, which
is an average Of approximately $76,.
900 per year. At the present time
the drain on the general fund il
about $4,000 per year. This is in
spite of the fact that work Of the de-
partment is approximately four times
greater than it was ten years ago,
and is accomplished through system
of fees, which contributes considera-
BILE revenue.
By it's work the department has
saved and is saving 100000 per year
to the wheat growers south of the
Snake river through reduced grain
warehouse rates. Other savings are
$5O0,O00 a year to log shippers, 500
per car on express shipments Of farm
products and probably more than ST.
100000 per year to the people Of the
state through contest resulting in
holding down an increase in railroad
freight rates. These are not all the
good works of the department that
might be mention.
The men composing the department
are neither fools or knaves. They
must be given credit for doing their
duty fearlessly and conscientiously.
The record shows that in the past
four years there have been more or
ders directing rate reductions than
orders allowing rate increases.
