INRADIO ADDRESS | Pleads With Critics of Power) Industry ‘to Come Out | Into the Open’ Chicago, Ml, Feb. 12.—Referring to | use of the term “power trust” as a} piece of political and journalis de- | . and describing the “power | as “a myth exploited by a small group of political aspirants | | With socialistic tendencies,” Martin J. 'Insull, president of the Middle Wes Utilities company, in a radio addre: here last night, pleaded with critics industry to come out “By creating the general opinion that @ group of individuals and cor- are the ‘power ” he “all kinds of charges may be sad, brought against the thing called ‘the power trust’ without assuming any legal responsibility. “When men use evasive language and terms,” Mr. Insull said, “the pre- sumption is they are concealing thought. Their real motive is to} arouse suspicion with the hope of de- stroying principles of private owner- ship and operation and replacing | them, in the power industry, with | government ownership and political | operation. “Their activities are a threat to the pocketbook American workman,” Insull asserted. | ‘These attacks are already causing a! few of the holders of power and light | securities to show some uneasin and may make it a little harder to | distinct of the raise the necessary money for in- creased facilities to meet demands for service.

SKEELS BISMARCK, N. hopes to spend on new construction $800,000,000—an amount of very con- siderable importance at a time when business needs all the stimulation it can receive. “When one considers that the ex- penditure of $80,000,000 means steady employment at good wages for 400,000 men throughout 1931, these assaults on the electric power industry are in reckless disregard of immediate pub- lic welfare.” Insull pointed out that the electric industry is compelled by law to oper- ate as a regulated monopoly and to serve all who seek service at rates established by public authorities. This circumstance, he declared, has been distorted by the industry's op- ponents who seek to convey the im- pression of an illegal combination to restrict trad> or raise prices. As disproving this accusation, he pointed out that the industry is continually seeking to increase its output and has reduced its rat. to the point where the households of America pay an average of eight ard one-half-cents a day for electricity. ~- “Whether our respective views are for or against public ownership,” Insull said, “let us be done with the myth of ‘the power trust,’ which in- sults the intelligence of the Amer- ican people.

Don’t Go to Extremes To End Constipation When bad breath, or a coated tongue, biliousness or headaches warn of constipation, don't take vio- lent purgatives. There's no use when @ candy Cascaret will stop the trouble in a jiffy; will cleanse your system pleasantly, and completely. The relief you get so promptly from Cascarets is lasting. Cascarets are made from cascara, a substance which medical authorities agree ac- tually strengthens the bowel muscles.
