A lowering of rates which affects three cities, 35 towns, 70 villages and one township was formally an- nounced Thursday afternoon at the ctces of the Ontario Hydro-Electric Commission. The individual I'educ- tions x'ange.1'1'om a maximum of ap proximately 25 per cent. down- wards. While the Hydro Commis- sioners have not yet computed the annual saving which the new schedules will achieve for the power consumers involved, they say that it will run into the hundreds of `thousands of dollars.

The rate reductions come as a re- sult of the terms of the Power Commission Act. under which the Hydro operates. This Act stipulates that electrical energy shall be stup- plied to municipalities and to the consumers of those municipalities at Iates which shall cover all nxed and operating conditions of each mun- icipality. With the assistance of the Hydro officials the operating costs are properly apportioned, and a decision is arrived at as to whether the rates are sufcient to meet all charges of the service, or as to whether they leave a decit or a surplus. Adjustments are then made in the rates so that the ser- vice will be selzf-supporting or a little better. This annual survey of the municipal systems has just been completed by the Hydro officials, and the rate revisions announced are its result. '1")-tn x-{nu rd` van!-nu An In 1nnn'l Iill lt l.CblllL. The xing of rates on a local Hydro system is a comlplicated mat- ter. Care must be taken to see that the proper proportion of operating 'cost is allotted to the various class- es ot service, such as commercial power, street lighting, residential lighting, water works, street rail- way and other departments. The amount of cost assigned to each ser- vice must be such that no one de- partment of the service is benetting at the expense of the other--tvhavt is, that street lighting is not being made cheap by having residential lighting made dear. The system oil rates adopted by the Ontario Hydro Commission is described as the re- sult of many years of careful study of the rates used in other parts of the world. The system which has seemed the most suitable to local conditions has been adopted, and has been amended from time to time in the light of the recommenda- tions ol actual experience. In the Niagara s_\'s.tem it has been neces:=.at`y` in some cases to make 'temporary increases in rates charged by some municipalities for certain classes 01` service to meet the in- crease in cost of power supplied at Niagara Falls, but as the load on the Niagara system increases and the Chippawa plant becomes loaded to capacity (luring the next two or three years. it is expected that the revenue obtained by the various municipalities will be more than sutiicent at existing rates to meet all o'oli:.:ations and that it will be necessary to again reduce these rates so that the revenue obtained may not be greater in excess of the operating charges.
