EDISON, that great genius of the electric industry, declared in 1929: “There is far more danger in public monopoly than there is in private monopoly, for when the government goes into business it can always shift If it goes into the power business it can pretend to sell cheap power and then cover up its losses to the taxpayers. its losses.

And that is the first requisite of busi- ness. It just mixes a little business with a Jot of politics and no one ever gets a chance to find out what is actu- ally going on.” The best that students of the subject have been able to find out about what has gone on in some of the government ventures into business is the following sad story: RESULT Operating loss 1922-1933 about ,000,000.
