Ajo's Automatic
Lighting System

The recently installed street
lighting system at Ajo is believed
to be the first of its kind for any
city in Arizona.
Ii consists of four circuits. Each
OF these circuits is controlled by
the new photo-elctric relays, which
contain three radio tubes and one
photo-electric tube.
This system is entirely auto
matte and is governed by the in
tensity of the darkness or the
amount of light.
In other words, when it gets
dark enough in the evening, the
lights turn on automatically, and
when it gets light enough in the
morning. the lights are automatic
ally turned off.
The system is said here to be
new anywhere within the past year
or two. and is quite expensive to
install. However, it does not re
quire a great deal in the way OF
renewal, or changes. save for re
placing tubes. etc, it is stated.
Automatic lighting is employed
but rarely at the present time, out
