Ninety per cent of the men start in retail stores. I think groups like these should talk to senators.

l7O,OOO BILLS
 PREPARED HERE
Accuracy Essential in Keeping Accounts; Of.
 flee Billing Center

Keeping lTO,OOO customer acc counts straight is no small job,- especially when almost every cus- toner has one or more transac- tlcns to be entered each month. To do this successfully, a consistently high accuracy is indispensable.
 Tn years past, the amount of the bill was figured "by hand," so to speak, but today almost all calcula- ticns are made by machines which have uncanny accuracy in the hands of skilled operators.
 New System Adopted
 Although the Connecticut Light & Power Go. has been progressive in It's billing system, 1t now inaugurates e new and even more advanced sys- tenn of billing, effective May 27.
 Under the new arrangement, Wa terbury is made the single central point where all bills are computed and prepared for the entire Con- necticut territory served by the com- painy.
 The news tabulating and billing equipment is installed at 49 Leaven- worth street. A new form of bill IS being prepared, simpler and more attractive than the present one, which will be superseded as of May 27.
 Adoption of this latest mode of billing, and the improved bill, are further steps in the company's pro- gram of bettering It's facilities to serve its 170,000 customers.
 Uncanny Skill
 After the meter reader has put down the meter readings in his book, and has turned 1t in at the end of the day, the books from all sections of the state are to be shipped to Waterbury under the new plan of operation. Bills will be made out and sent to the districts to be mailed from districts and branch offices. The completed bills will, in the main, be sent out by mail.
 The accuracy of the new billing equipment, made for this express purpose by the International Busi- ness Machine Corp, is far beyond that of the average human mnid.
