THE MOVING PICTURE WORLD 33i - :■' ■ .. ■.■;j-.:; , - | -.- ■■.,-■>■ / <■:.:. EDISON ELECTRIC ILLUMINATING COMPANY OF BROOKLYN GENERAL OFFICES, EDISON BUILDING BROOKLYN, N.Y. ■-■'..- . . March 23rd, 1908. Mr. J. H. Hallberg, £45 Broadway, New York City. Dear Sir: Replying to yours of March 13th, in which you outline your Economizer to be used in connection with picture machines, spot lights and similar open arc lamps, after consultation with our Engineering department, it has been finally decided that we will rerate all our customers who purchase the apparatus, and who, upon installation, notify the Company of the change of their equipment. This, I believe, will enable all users to take advantage of the reduced rating in kilowatt capacity as presented in your letter and by your Mr. H. B. Coles. It must be understood, however, that the customer will be required to notify the Company in advance, in order that the rating might be changed before the Economizer is placed in operation, as no credit will be given on old bills on a claim of having installed the apparatus on a previous date. We recognize the economical effect of your apparatus and appreciate that the same consumption of current will be retained in signs, flaming arcs and etc., and will encourage its use wherever occasion presents itself. Very truly yours, JOSEPH F. BECKER, Jr. JFB/CMR. General Agent. The Hallberg Automatic Electric Economizer is the only current saving device for moving picture lamps which gives you this reduction. The choke coils are not in It. They are out of date. WRITE TO-DAY. Approved by N. Y. Board of Fire Underwriters Approved by Department Water Supply. Gas and Electricity of New York City. J. H.
