10.222 Calls Made bv
Visiting .Nurses in Year
Annual report of the Omaha
Visiting Nurses' association i sub
mitted at the annual business' ses
sion show that -1 nurses made 40,222
calls on 5,369 patients during 1920.
The association spent $o5,o04 in
its work. I'ive-sixths of the expendi
tures were for nurses, transportation
End cxpertses. Weekly clinics were
held during the year.
Western arilroads have notified
C.'E. Childc, manager of the traffic
bureau at the Chamber of Com
merce, that lumber rates have been
lowered on shipments from north
west -Pacific, coast points'.
The former charge of 73 1-2 cents
a hundredweight has been lowered
to t6 1-2 cents a hundredweight,
making a saving to Nebraska .ship
pers of $150,000 to !? 200.000 annually.
The rate decrease is the result
of a hearing held before Leo Finn
of the Interstate Commerce commis
sion two weeks ago at which Omaha
shippers v'eged western railroads
were discriminating in their charges
and favoring northern cities.

And the mayor insisted that while
there is life there is hope and a pros
pect of reward for labor, elfort, skill,
oi money invested.. I ly took the view
that bread cast upon,' the waters will
return.
Mr. Bailey testified tiat the
"weighted average" of the local dec
ide light and power plant was 88; j
per cent;; that this represented the
"condition per cent or the life ex
pectancy." He explained that' this
was the normal per cent if the plant
was maintained properly, and in the
ease of tli Omaha plant, he testi
fied that it has been maintained to
100 pee cent operating efficiency.
Plant in Perfect Condition.
I he New York valuator explained
thatin arriving at the &Vi per cent
he considered al the depreciable and
nondepreciable elements. '' '
"We consider 85 per cent as nor
mal," testified Mr. Bailey. This
plant is regarded as in perfect con
dition, as far as practical operating
conditions are concerned," said Mr.
Bailey.
; In his reproduction cost new state
ment. Mr. Bailey included an item
of S9C6.280 for "cost of securing
capital," which he explained t a
legitimate item and he defended it.
He explained that the cost of serv
ice of distributing securities to the
public is a necessary . mid proper
expense item in any public utility,

which Mr. Bailey based his repro
duction cost new showing. ,
'- Bailey Stands Ground.
"I fear we are departing front
the basic principles." suggested Mr.
Lambert, vvhereurjlcn Mr. .Bailey
stood his ground and offered to ex
plain his premises, which he did
under a severe examination by the
corporation counsel. ,
After Mr. Bailey explained again
that he was giving the reproduction
cost new oi a plant similar to the
one in operation here. Commis
sioner Ringer asked: i,
"You mean a plant all ready to
turn on the juice, do you?"
: Mr. Bailey replied that the police
commissioner understood it correct

ness examined since this phase of
f the hearing was started last Wednes
