"Although the increase in power went up 7 per cent during the past fiscal year there has been only a slight increase in the amount the customer pays. The average bill amounts to $19 31 per month. In New York City the electric rate is 10 limes greater than ours, perhaps that is one reason New York is going bankrupt." He spoke of the dramatic reduction in line loss slating it is present I y about 7 per cent . Previously it had been 17 per cent and the customers weren't getting a good return. Electric consumption increased 13 per cent and while many other companies were cutting down during the energy crisis, our consumption went up.

What happens during the last two months of the year, particularly to pedestrians, will be critical in determining the final toll, officials said. Last November and Decem ber 34 pedestrians were killed in Oregon traffic. If the pedestrian record improves and other traffic deaths re main about the same, a toll below 600 seems to be assured.
