M. Manufacturing plants shall be allowed to use light only during the time prescribed for the use of power. 5.

Every possible economy in light, heat and power, including reduction in elevator service, must be effected within these hours and the heating during closed hours be reduced to the lowest margin of safety. In all buildings of whatever character, including factories and stores referred to above service lighting shall be reduced to a minimum, elevator service ..outside of the hours specified for operation shall be reduced to one car and heat must be cut off except in such deg&e as will prevent damage by freezing. 6.
