OVER 5 MILLIONS IN SAVINGS TO ELECTRIC CUSTOMERS More than five million dollars a year is the saving which electric companies in the Midland United Companv group have made possible for their electric customers in Indiana. It is the policy of the companies in this group to supply their services at the lowest possible rates consistent with good service. In line with this policy Midland subsidiary companies have voluntarily reduced rates whenever possible. This poliev has been consistent from the time of the beginning of the formation of this group of companies in the summer of 1923 down to the present day. It will continue to he the policy in the future. The savings to electric customers in 1930 totaled^ss,3ol,807.77. This represents a reduction of approximately 22 per cent, compared with rates in effect in 1923. This saving is based upon the difference between the actual amount charged for electric service during the year 1930 \ and the amount which would have been charged had the average rates per kilowatt hour charged in 1923 still been in effect last year. It either represents a direct saving to electric customers or has made it possible for them to use mure electricity for the same amount of money. These rate reductions have affected all classes of customers. Residential and commercial electric customers have benefited to the extent of $2,921,250.66, while industrial power users have had an estimated saving totaling $2,380,557.11. Such a program of voluntary rate reductions has been made possible only by the merger of many small companies into larger companies, the joining of communities by transmission lines and the supplying of electrical energy from large, centrally-located generating plants instead of from small local plants. The management of the Midland United Company’s group of companies realizes that service must be reliable, and rates must be attractive to customers in order that they may use the service to a greater extent. Electricity is the modern servant in the home, shop and factory and reasonable rates result in its greater use. This is the third of a series of advertisements I « published in the interest of a better understanding I J of principles governing operation of public utilities.
