Power or the Ontario Hydra is bringing them into Take for instance the case of To ronto For a past there his diffcrencea of opinion between the Toronto Hydro and the Ontario Hydro Commission on question of rates Nearly a- year Ontario presented a of rotes to the Toronto sion Instructing to put them Into operation In of Toron to TWe Toronto Commission by Mayor refused to do in thotit Judgment the rates wore inequitable unfair and detri mental to the financial It of tho City of Toronto For some months the Toronto Commission havo had their chid engineer Mr looking into the whole situation as far as Toronto concerned with the riHlt that a few days ago they sub mitted a schedule of rates to be charged for power and light lit the City of Toronto to the Provincial Now one can readily understand that Toronto Commission would have a more thorough knowledge ot the local requirements of tie City and what rates should be charged for the various uses of power in that City than the Provincial and hero is where of the chief difficulties in connection with the Hy dro Proposition and one which we have Impressed iqon the that you lose control in connection with your rates for light and power in your own Municipality When this of rates was pre sented to the Ontario Commission from Toronto what do they do Ap parently ignore it entirely and with in a day or two they have sent an other schedule of rates issued by the Provincial Hoard instructing the City of Toronto to put those rates into operation Since the City re ceived this Mayor who has taken special interest in the working of Hydro of Toronto being on the Commission there and also who has been for two years one of mayors the City of Toronto has ever had states in the Public that after examining the rates last submitted by the Ontario Commis sion he is ver strongly opposed to them as he has been with the pre vious rates which they have supplied the City It is stated that- If the Toronto Commission do net put this last schedule into operation the Ontario Commission will tine them at I he rate of per d It is al so said that the Ontario Commsslon at the next session of tle Legislature will ask for even more stringent pow ers than- they have today to enable them punishto the utmost limit any Municipality that disagrees with their judgment on the question ol rates Just a tew days ago the Hamilton was furnished with sche dule by the Ontario Commis sion instructing them to put rates operation- Alter looking them the refused to do stating that the Ontario Commission had not looked into the local condi tions at Hamilton and did not i the situation and these rates based on any foundation that was epiitable and just to the City of Hamilton- This is only the leginnin of fric tion that will
