The new power rates suggested by the power comb mission were adopted.â€" They provide for a reduction in both power and street lighting. ‘ The represeatative of the Power Commission informed the commisâ€" slon that it had been decided to conâ€" trol all the rural power lines throughout the prince instead of only some of them as had been done in the past. As a result on a great number of rural lines the electricity can be supplied to the farmers at an actual cest basis.

The town had been paying both the Hydro Power Commission and the Townâ€" #hip of Waterloo interest on capital and sinking fund for these two lines. When both lines are taken over by the Power Commission the local commission will hand over the deâ€" preciation account, or the sinking fund, which has accumulated, to the Hydro Commission, less any expenâ€" ‘dnures which have been made in upkeep. The latter expenditures will ‘be refunded to the local commission.

A refund of $2,861.64 will be made to the town council on the street lighting account, the account taking care of accumulations during the past years. The refund had to be made since the Hydro Commission suggests that all municipal services| are to be at cost. Manager C. W.
