aoesking before the Exchange geash last night at the Burritt hotel, aamusl |. Ferxerson. president or fha Hartford Electric Light Co. iAwelt an the method by which rates - electricity were determined aud AeW the method worked out. He aeaaeareA the promotional rate to tAet of the book publisher and stated int the initial cost of equipment Nas tho largest item in the furnish IT ef electricity to the homes. The faet that the kilowatt hours could n furnished at . low cost was only ssaAe possible by the amount Of the elsctricity used by the individual berson. he said.
 { gpeaking of the Muscle Shoals development he stated that there Eas net enough current developed It all times of the year to provide electricity for city the size of Hart ford, due to the fact that it was . hydro electric generator and at cer- tain times of the year the water sup ply was very low and at other times it was high enough to supply great deal in excess of what could be used He further stated that in New Ens- land only about Is per cent of the electricity was furnished by water power as the streams in New Eng land were not running full for about six months in the year.
 In regard to the Canadian com- panies. who are able to furnish elec- tricity at low rate, he said that Niagara Falls furnishes water supply all the year around and therefore there was no charge for the cost, as compared to the price of coal and other fuel in the United States. There are entire towns in Canada where there Is no coal used for heating purposes and all heating is done by electricity. This allows the com panies there to furnish the power at . much less charge per kilowatt hour than is possible in the United States, he said.
