It has spent, or Invested mor than 150.000.-000 in Inaane hospitals and their maintenance. The Increasing; cost of th car of unfortunates Is shown by the faet that.

Although Indiana spends only cents a dav for each Inaane patient, or a year, tn patient's in-atitutiona) life averages nine years, making his total cost to the state $2 "00.

Ther aaid the ater Company has sought only to saddle an Increased burden on water consumers, when improvements and extnsions planned by the company would by virtue of th the Increased revenue, more than pay for the cash outlay. That hXa been demonstrated, they said, by the fact tnat from 1881 to 1952 the Water Company made all necessary improvements aad extensions from, earnings and showed a surplus each year. Mr.

Groninger and Mr. Geckler said the, present valuation of the Water Company, with the exception of the $500,000 capitalisation tn 1895. represents an accumulation of earnings since that time, and discloses the enormous profits of th Water Company. It further dmonstrats they said, that the claim for an Increased valuation for rate-making purposea Is unjustified. SlsOOjsOO Otyv Baaia.
