Couch, iohnston & Cryderman CITIZENS HEAR HYDRO PURCHASE DISCUSSED Much Valuable information Given lu Addresses by G. D. Conant and F. L. Mason o! Oshawa Citizens filled the Council ROOM Friday night to hear addresses on the question of purchasing the local hydro distributing plant which vote takes place next Monday. Mayor . J. Elliott presided. Two prommnent men weil versed in hydro affairs in this district gave many pertinent facts in their ad- dresses. Gordon D. Conant, a mem- ber of the Public Utilities Commis- sion of Oshawa, reviewed the power situation in eastern Ontario which led up to the goverrnent buying the Seymour Power System and turned it over to the Hydro Commission. Tis body is now unscrambling the system by off ering the local plants to the various municipalities at very at- tractive prices. "The municipality owning its own hydro plant keeps ail its profits for use on its own system instead of go- ing into a central fund" said Mr. Conant. -I would be very much surprised if Bowmanville could not substantially reduce its rates besides taking care of its debentures and re- serves. Every other town has done so and so can Bowmanville." In conclusion hie stated that the pur- dbase was a manif estly good proposi- tion. Mr. F. L. Mason, President of the Eastern Ontario Hydro Association. and Chairman of the Oshawa Util- ities Commission, who is one o! the best informed men in this district on hydro affairs. gave statistics to prove the advantage and desirability of The annual Graduation Exercises of the Training School for Nurses o! Bowmanville Hospital wilI take place on Friday. June 2th, at 8.30 p. m. in the opera House, at which the public are invited. Rev. Dr. R. P.

CELEBRATE 25TH ANNIVERSARY 0F ROTARY CLUBS Rotarians From Every Clime WilI Meet in Chicago, June 23rd to 27th. Vote for the Hydro Bylaw Some of the salient facts regarding the purchase by the Town of the local Hydro Electric System seemi to be these: First. the Hydro was created in the firsi instance to deliver power to municipalities at cost. but it was neyer intended that Hydro should l'un and operatc the electric system of each or any municipality. Hydro is not a corporation nor a company. They have no shareholders to receive dividends, no provision for the piling up of profits. They are only creat- ed to give each municipality electrir power at cost. The municipalities and the ratepayers o! each municipality are intended to receive the pro- fits either in lower rates or in cash returns. or company located outside of a municipality who owns their system. We pay for our power at a fixed rate and that is the end of it. Our profits are paid to the municipalities of Oshawa, Peterboro. Lindsay, Picton an-d Belleville who own their system and under the Power Act re- ceivÙ any profits received by the Hydro connected with the Central Ontario System. The Hydro Commission are trying to assist Bowmanville to get in line and receive the real benefits of Hydro, and of course we cannot understand that and become suspicious. The only municipalities (and they are very few) who do not own their own electric system in Ontario to-day are municipalities who orig- înally reccived this electric power f rom private power companies. In most instances these private companies were bought out by Hydro at the urgent request of the municipalities concerned and the ones who have not since bought their own systems enjoy rather high rates and see the profits therefrom distributed to, other municipalities who own their sys- tems and who are the only ones under the power act who may receive such profits. The only possible way the electric users o! Bowmanville can secure lower rates is to, buy their own system. The bug bear of "a run-down equipment," "a pile o! junli" and NEW HEATING SYSTEM IN PUBLIC SCHOOL Awarded to W. Len. EIIJott at $7140 At the meeting on Friday evening the Public School Board awarded the contract for installing a new heatmng system at the Central School to W. L. Elliott, local plumber, at $7140-00. Ten tenders were received, six of them bemng from out-of-town firrns. W. L. Elliott's and W. A. Clarke's tenders were chosen for spec- ial conisideration, the others belng considered too high. A long and wordy controversy ensued, and the matter was finally voted on with the above resuit. 1. The discussion then veered to the question of meeting the town coun- cil for the purpose of asking for the necessary grant to *carry out the plans. The chairman on being elected to appoint a committee to i- terview the council. delegated the whole board for this purpose. The tenders received for the heating plant were as f ollows: $6,937, $7,200, $7.600, $8.400, $7,200, $8,600, $7,140, $7.330, $7,143, and $7,500. Tri Robir 11 a. day Loyal serlo st.
