It was found in all cases that better service or lower rates could be obtained by absorbing the systems in the large interconnected lines of private concerns. The day of the individual municipal power plant is past. The widdy spread power systems of private companies can give better service to the public at lower rates. nmrrSII COI &» 'LKTItICBaueax CO.
