Plan for reserved seats at Glenn’s Drug While Ontario homes and indusâ€" try admittedly could never have af. forded to have used so much elecâ€" tricity at old private power rates, the difference between those old rates and Hydro charges down through the Hydrro years now totals close to $800,000,000. a 25 per cent increase and the $2.50 reduction is pf enormous commercial importance to all Canada. The difference to Ontario indus- try and industrial workers between Best information from Hydro is that Ontario’s power rates would ‘have had to rise 25 to 30 per cent to carry the load of commitments under the original Quebec power contracts. Instead of an increase in power costs, however, the Niagara municipalities have just been grant- ed a $2.50 per horsepower decreaseâ€" and may receive another cut. FEEDS FOR STOCK AND POULTRY Of the 300,000 horsepower of Quebec electricity purchased during October, 160,000 horsepower was un- used and stands as “reserve power.” Hydro’s “reserve power" supply is greater than the 15 per cent gen- erally regarded throughout the conâ€" tinent as normal, safe, reserve. l Under the revised terms of the Quebec contracts Hydro bought dur- ing October only 300,000 horsepower at a total expenditure of but $191,- 854, or a saving to the people’s Hydro business of $690,654.84 for that one month alone. Hydro fore- casts an $8,233,000 saving during the fiscal year just commenced due to contract revision. This has been made possible by the revision of the Quebec power contracts, which, as originally drawn, would have committed the Ontario Hydro Commission to the purchase of 706,000 horsepower of Quebec electricity at a cost of $882,000 dur- ing October alone. In the Provincial Hydro field the audited accounts of the Provincial Hydro Commission this year show that the 1935 $3,000,000 Hydro de- ficit has been transformed into a $3,000,000 profit during 1936.
