Book excerpt: Excerpt from State of New York, Thirteenth Annual Report of the Public Service Commission, Second District, Vol. 1: For the Year Ended December 31, 1919 As in previous years, the main duty of this division has been to exercise supervision over the accounting practices of public utility companies in so far as it is practicable to do so by an examination and criticism of their annual reports, and to prepare abstracts from these reports for the information of the public. The reports have been used both by the public and the Com mission more than ever before, and the information contained in them has proved of very great value for the just decision of the numerous rate cases that have resulted from attempts of the utilities to maintain their net income in the face of rapidly rising costs.
