The new lease, if it accords with the views of the company. uNe would be terminable within a short space of time by filing notice of expiration by lther the company or the city. The company feels that the price of ens under the modified lense should Include the vnrieus elements entering into its manufacture, the find financial charges of the company and finally the pay ment exacted by the city. The company would provide further that after n "six months' period had showed conclusively that the price of manufacturing gus bud either fallen or increased, the company should, be able te change the price te the consumer by the expedient of tiling a new tariff te ba effective within the thirty-day period.
