The overhead distribution system has been increased during the year by the addition of 140 poles and 163,826 feet of wire. 173 new services have been connected. 286 defective poles have been renewed, and butt reinforcements have been installed on many others.
The pole and wire lines on Haverhill Street, between Bay State Road and the North Reading town line, and on Forest Street, the en- tire length of the street, were relocated in connection with the widen- ing of the street. Similar work was done on Elm Street and Abbott Road, North Reading and on Shawsheen Avenue and Hopkins Street, Wilmington. The total expense for this work was $2,809.12 as of De- cember 31, 1933.
Underground ducts and manholes have been installed on Main and Ash Streets, between Green Street and the power station, in an- ticipation of the rebuilding of Main Street. This work was done under the supervision of our own men, and twenty-five Reading citizens

were employed on the job. The total cost of this construction was $13,348.24, of which $3,931.57 was paid for labor.
The voltage on the Wilmington feeder circuit has been increased from 2300 to 4000 volts which has resulted in decreasing the line loss and maintaining the proper voltage at the consumers premises.
Lightning damage was particularly severe during the year, 23 trans- formers being burned out. Improvements in lightning protection are being made on the Wilmington and North Reading-Lynnfield feeders, by the installation of new grounds and lightning arresters. We hope to complete this work before the coming summer as it will not only increase the protection of our transformers and lines, but will prevent many interruptions to the service by lightning.
Secondary mains have been extended and the size of wire increased to provide adequate voltage, and larger transformers have been in- stalled to take care of increased load in consumer's premises.
The following table shows the addition and renewal of poles dur- ing the past three years :

We have adopted during the year what is known as out-door metering and several installations have been made. Under this method of metering the meter is installed in the service wires on the out- side of the building and not only tends to prevent theft of current,
185
but is more convenient for taking readings, which can be obtained if the premises are closed.
In order to facilitate the collection of overdue accounts prepay- ment meters have been installed in some cases rather than discontinu- ing the service for non-payment.
The Meter Department has been provided with a car which has been badly needed.
GARAGE
The garage building is in good repair. There were some repairs made to the roof and flashings, and the doors and windows painted.
The cars have been kept in good repair and two trucks have been repainted and lettered.
The large Reo truck, which was purchased in 1925, should be re- placed during the coming year.

The total automobile expense, including depreciation and insurance on cars, was $7,474.89, which is 6.01 cents per mile of operation.
LAMP AND APPLIANCE DEPARTMENT
The net sales of appliances and lamps were $22,977.64, and cost of same was $16,890.87, leaving a gross profit of $6,086.77.
Operating expenses of the department charged to sales were $8,096.67, and amount paid contractors for installations, $1,098.46, mak- ing the total expense of conducting the department $3,108.36.
The estimated annual kilowatt-hour consumption of the appli- ances sold is 93,433, which at an average rate of 4 cents per kilowatt hour will produce an annual revenue of $3,737.32.

At the annual meeting in March, 1933, the Finance Committee was instructed, "To investigate the expenses of operating the so-called Store of the Municipal Light Department."
In connection with its investigation a series of questions was sub- mitted to us relating to the operation of the Lamp and Appliance De- partment. All questions were answered in such detail as requested, and in addition much data and information was furnished by the Depart- ment.
RANGE AND WATER HEATER RENTAL-PURCHASE PLAN
This is a plan which enables the customer to enjoy the benefits of electric cooking and water heating without the necessity of making an initial investment. The plan is not new as it has been in use in England and Holland for the past ten years. It was tried in the United States for the first time in February of 1933, by the Hartford Electric Light Com- pany, and during the year many other plants, both private and muni- cipal, have adopted the plan in some form. Briefly the plan is as fol- lows: The Central Station furnishes to the customer a range or water heater and installs it ready to operate. The customer pays a monthly rental for its use, in addition to the regular rates for the electricity used. The range or water heater is kept in operating condition with- out expense to the customer.
Under the straight rental plan the appliance always remains the property of the Central Station, but under the rental-purchase plan, ownership is transferred to the customer after a stated number of monthly rental charges have been paid.
187
The plan has much to commend it. It enables the customer to learn, by actual use, the advantages and economy of electro service. It provides additional business for the wiring contractor and plumber in connection with the installations and stimulates the sales of ranges and water heaters by the dealer. Last, but by no means least, it provides an immediate sale by the Central Station of an increased number of kilowatt hours with a corresponding increase in revenue without any appreciable permanent increase in investment.
Under authority of the vote of the Board we adopted the rental- purchase plan on May 1st and before the end of June had rented and installed our quota of 75 ranges and 30 water heaters.
Under the plan which we adopted the customer pays a monthly rental of $1.50 for either a range or water heater and after 60 monthly payments on a range or 84 on a water heater, it becomes the property of the cus- tomer.
The range selected for the plan was the "Waldorf", a four-burner, all-porcelain, table-top model, made by Electromaster, Inc., Detroit, Michigan.
The water heater which we selected was the Tru-Mac, made in Reading by the Tru-Mac Mfg. Co. of 14 Woburn Street.
As the ranges and water heaters on rental will remain the property of the Department for a considerable time, they are carried in in- ventory as a separate item and depreciated annually by the amount of the annual rental.
The value of the leased appliances as of December 31st was $9,046.13.
On the basis of meter readings for the last eight months of 1933, as compared with the corresponding period in 1932, it is estimated that the leased appliances will consume annually 133,000 kilowatt hours and increase the annual revenue about $3,256.00.
SALARIES AND WAGES
In conjunction with the action taken by the other Town Depart- ments, and by the authority of a vote of the Municipal Light Board, salaries and wages were reduced commencing January 1, said reduction being in effect at the present time.
The estimated reduction in yearly payroll was $6,334.00.
UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF
With the approval of the Board the Manager signed the Presi- dent's Agreement and the Department adopted the Public Utility Code as approved and secured the Blue Eagle. The hours under the code are 40 hours per week and in adjusting working hours, employment was provided for three additional operating men and one additional clerk
188
in the office, with an increased annual payroll of $5,220.80. Twenty-five men were employed on the underground construction job on Main and Ash Streets the labor payroll on this job being $3,931.57. Four of these men were retained for special work in connection with lightning arrester grounds and tree trimming from October 13th to the end of the year, the additional payroll being $1,088.56.
CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS
The poles on Main, Haven, Lowell and Harnden Streets were dec- orated with green and lighted. Decorative lights were also installed on the evergreen trees on the Common, Ernest Leach Park and at West Street and County Road. The expense to the Department for the Christmas decorations was as follows :

FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS
In anticipation of the re-building of Main Street, from Haven Street to the Boston and Maine Railroad, underground ducts and manholes were constructed from Green Street to the Power Station.
If the street is re-built during the coming year, it will be necessary to purchase and install the underground cables and street lighting stand- ards and to remove the existing poles and overhead wires.
The estimated cost of this material and labor is $26,000.00 which can be paid from the Depression Fund.
The proposed new 4000 volt switchboard at the power station, the construction of which has been deferred for the past three years and which is estimated to cost about $21,000.00, ought to be completed in 1935 at the latest and a start should be made on it this year.
A petition, signed by practically all of the business men on Haven Street, between Main Street and High Street, has been received, asking for ornamental street lighting on the street similar to the lights in Read- ing Square.
An estimate has been made covering the cost of placing all wires on this street underground, installing ornamental lamp posts and re- moving poles and overhead wires. The estimated cost is about $28,725.00 and this amount is not available this year, if the Main Street job is completed.
189
The amount available for construction purposes in the Deprecia- tion and Construction Funds is $46,625.51, of which at least $18,000.00 will probably be needed for the ordinary extensions, new services, meters and transformers.
I submit herewith my estimate of the expenses and income for the year ending December 31, 1934, as required by law.
