To give the most efficient service, the construction, equipment and operation of this Company must conform to the best known practices. To meet these requirements, the Company must charge such rates as will meet necessary operating expenses, provide adequate reserves for replacing worn-out or obsolete plant, and give a return on the money actually invested in the business that shall be reasonable and sufficient to invite new capital as required for expansion. Should any earnings be made o'ver and above those necessary to meet these requirements, we feel the amount should be used for the benefit of the pub lie to further increase the efficiency and reliability of the service.
