save ontario power users literally hundreds of millions of dollars on their electricity bills during the next several decades in assailing the validity of the conservative administratons power tieups with quebec private corpora tions the liberal prime minister of ontario is raising an issue which means dollars and cents yes and even jobs to every ontario citizen of the present and the future rural ontario cannot afford to uuderestimate the importance to agricultural of the battle now being waged at queens park it means in many thousands of rural homes the difference between the available and economic unavailability of hydro for farmers in essence as the facts become apparent in the legislature and in queens park corridors the pro vince is obligated to pay sla per horse power for unwanted elec tricity which premier hepburn attorney general roebuck and their colleagues of the cabinet say should have been purchased if purchase were inevitable at a much lower figure the capitalization and financial setups given by government spokesmen to the legislature have revealed according to statements series of powerpurchase deals im mensely profitable to quebec prl- expenditure vate power corporations but jlnrpugii apparently disastrous to the peoples hydro venture unless the premier wins his battle against the quebec power barons the ontario user of electric ity is doomed to pay higher and higher prices for power with the hydro commission newly striving for increased distribution of electricity in rural ontario hopes of electrification in many farm homes are to be blasted unless premier hepburn wins the present pght at queens park economically the issue as drawn is one of the most important thte province has faced for many a year increased power costs would mean increased production costs in in dustry this would mean less busi ness in competition with world in dustry in turn this would mean fewer jobs for urban workingmen and in its turn would mean less urban buying power with which to make rural ontario prosperous to an observer in queens park during the past few weeks of legis lature sittings it would seem that the people of ontario may fail to grasp the importance of premier hepburns present efforts they are so vital to ontarios welfare that it is difficult to understand tho atti tude of hilarity encountered upon conservative benches tne ontario hydro commission paid 400 for a portrait of alt mcguire commissioner what a rotten waste of public funds which must be paid for through the cost of electric current burned in our homes what interest

maggie is spending her vacation on tho tenth we wonder if jlggs is having a feed of corn beef and cabbage should the ontario government decide to assume the whole cost of the kings highways throughout the province the direct saving to york county council according to the treasurers estimate would be be tween 90 and 100 thousand dollars it would be well for the treasurers of each municipality to figure the saving if any to their respective municipalities after the subsidies now received on township road is cancelled the hydro electric power com mission of ontario by reduction in managerial and administrative costs during the past six months has effected a yearly saving of more than 000000 in addition a reduction of more than 450000 in annual interest payments will be apparent this year and a decline i will continue until the money ad- jvanced by the province for capital has been returned sinking funds the one big alarm or black cloud for hydro is the enormous contracts entered into for power which is not been used and which was bought at shamfully high rates if the ontario government succeeds in getting the cost of this power lower ed they will earn the unending thanks of all the people of this pro vince the agricultural committee of york county council passed a re commendation that eggs be sold by weight after being candled instead of by the dozen as at present it is contended by the committee that the present various grades under which eggs are sold are confusing and conflicting to the public an other recommendation sent forward to the legislature by this committee is that the service charge on rural hydro be reduced such reduction as the ontario hydro commission might make would certainly be wel come by the farmers but after all its hydro at cost if hydro rates now coupled with the service charge pays the cost of current and line investment only then any reduction in service charge would have to be countered by increased rates so what have we
