PAGE SIX THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA STATEMENT TO THE PUBLIC There has been some misunderstanding on the part of some cus- ; of the Juneau Water Company regarding the slight adjustment es put into effect on Septenfiber 1st. The old rates were adopted 40 years ago and have not been changed time, notwithstanding the greatly increased operating costs years that past few i The new rates have been adjusted on a basis \\hl(‘h will bring the company a total increase in gross revenue of approximately $400 a month or a little In the past 4 or 5 years, total operating costs have ased several times that much. An instance of that is the payroll, which has increased $440 a month since 1944. Property taxes have in- $1,000 a year. mnere creased over an investment in the water system of more than $250,000, and it is this year adding about $30,000 in new capital made necessary by a very,considerable extension of the system throughout the city and in the new additions. The company ha I verage net return from the entire system for the years from July 31, 1949, has been $4,205.28 per annum. If present taxes n in force each of those ye that average yearly return would ¢ been $3,205.28, which is less than 1149 on the investment. City Clerk a complete statement of the including historical data, capital invest- ment and operating cos This is for the information of the public. A copy of this statement is on file at The First National Bank. The City Clerk has also on file in his office for inspection, a copy of the appraisal made in October, 1945, by Black and Veatch, appraisal engineers em- ployed by the City of Juneau for that purpose. We have filed with the affairs of the water company The water company property taxes in Juneau and the school dis- trict are nov most $4,000 a year. The company has a franchise from the City of Juneau, although no rate schedule is established in the ordinance nting it. In return for the franchise the water company pays the city $100.00 a month. There- fore, the revenue which the city and the school district receive from the water company through taxes and monthly license fees on the franchise greatly entire net return which the company receives from its entire exceed the inv stment.

United States Senate and none wv.ho assumed a leadership befitting n.s size, population and significance in-the life of the American peo- |ple. The last U. S. Senator of out- !standing significance and leader- ship was Elifu Root, sent to that body in 1909. James W. Wadsworth, Jr, who served during World War |I and the years immediately after, (assumed a position of leadership, {although he would, I am sure, be {the first to admit that Root was in a class by himself. Excepting Root and Wadsworth, |the United States Senators from | thé Fmpire State have been James | ‘a O'Gorman, Willlam M. Calder, | ‘Ro\al S. Copeland, Robert F. Wag- | !ner, James M. Mead and Irving M. Ives, ncne of whom have left a scratch upon history. Robert F. Wagner left somewhat of a repu- tation as the introducer of the bill | that bears his name, said to have been prepared by Lee Pressman | and other C.I.O. lawyers. Irving Ives, the present incumbent, gave | promise of a great career, but it is still a promise and not a fulfill- | ment. The others were political hacks of the kind that are now.so usual in public office. | | The nomination of John Foster | Dulles then gives to the voters of New York state an opportunity to redeem themselves by proving that! it is possible for an upright, train- | ed, competent, independent mind‘ to be elected. Dulles runs in a year when a mayor is to ke elect- cd for the City of New York with a population of 8,000,000, and of the three candidates who are run- ning one is no bette than the other and one of them is Vito Marcantenio, so that gives you! an idea of the best that 8,000,000 Americans can produce. If Dulles were elected to the Sen- | ate, it would be of singular ad- vantage to that body because, at any rate, there would be one there who knows our foreign relations at |first hand. But it is difficult to say whether he will make it or not, | for the issues are often racial and | religious and skin pigmentation, jand Dulles cannot claim member- | ship in any minority group, which is indeed very bad politics. How- | ever, it would be fortunate for the | United States if he were elected. | (Copyright, 1949, King Features Synd' ate, Inc.)
