BUTLER PROPOSES NEW RATES The tity commissioners intend to amend the Dahlman. electric light and power rate ordinance to the extent that in all cases thore will be a positive reduction of 3 cents per kilowatt hour on the pri- mary rate and % of a cent per kilowatt hour on the secondary, retaining the alec- tric light company's present system of determining what the initial quality shall be. It Is also proposed o eliminate the minimum charge of 50 cents per month. General Manager Foidrege of the Omaha Electric Light and Power com- pany says he wants time to consider this amendment before making any positive statement, but his offhand opinion is that his company would not agree to grant such a concession. The Dahiman ordinance, which - har aroused oritiolsm, and several amend- ments, have been referred to the com- mittes of the whole for general dlscus- slon next Moriday morning in the council ohamber, at which time all persons in- terested will be given an opportunity to speak on this subject. An Imaginary Bfll. The new rates which are proposed by Commissioner Butler would operate in this manner: A light bill of ten kilo- watt hours at the primary rate of 11 cents and ten hours st the secondary rate of 6 cents would, under the proposed amendment, be ten hours at 8 cents and ten hours at 64 cents, or a reduction of 36 centa on this imaginary bill. Commissioner Butler and City Attorney Rine state thAt the new amendment would be a reduotion of 7 3-11 per cent of all primary charges and 12} per cent of all secondary charges. Under the Dahlman ordinance it was proposed to apply an S-cent primary rate to the first % kilowatt hours used and then apply a wecondary rate of 6 cents, both rates belng subject to an addition of % cent per kilowatt hour for nonpayment of Lill within ten days. The last amendment retains the present discount of § per cent for puyment within ten days, Other proposed ohanges in the schedule are: Commercial lighting, primary rate of kilowatt hour; retall power, hours, 8 cents; next 400 hours, 44 cents; next 2,000 hours, 2% oents; excess above, 3 cents per hour, Would Not Out Mills. some instances only a slight reduction would be recelved.
