How Much Is A Pound of Copper ?

ft)

...Copper Wire is Up to 29$ a Pound from 15$ in 1940

Hundreds of thousands of pounds of copper wire were bought by Power & Light last year at prices nearly double those of 1940. All other line material costs are up, along with wages and coal, resulting in a drastic increase in our operating expenses. Yet we have been able thus far to hold down the price you pay for Electricity. New equipment and improved methods have produced operating economies, which with the additional revenue from increased use of Electricity, have partially offset our higher expense.
