Whitby as shown in a state- ment appearing on the front page of this ilssue, le yearly increa8ing its amount of equity in the 1-ydro system, and eventually, along with many other progressive munici- palities, it will be a part owner of ail the Hydro equipment, including generating ap- parattis, transmission Uines, etc. After ail, the Hydro Electrie Power Commission iseonly a truetee for the hydro niunicipalities. But Whitby has enother thing to be proud of-, and that is cheap, steady power. The Public UtiIity Commission this week recev- ed a credit note, in the form of the 'ihir- teenth bil," for $2,237.20, -for -the govern- ment fiscar'year ending October USlt, 1930. M'e cost of power te the town delivered by the. Iydro was also reduced f rom $35~ per horse power to $33.30. Power at cost is thelHydro Conission'îi slogan, and itlal keeping faith with the mun- icipai.ties in thia respett. Whitby lis one of th H.'ler Hydro position le msound and Wrmang.
