TAILORING CO. Headquarters for Suits, Coats and One-Piece Dresses 425 Union Street tion of operation of its transit line Sup- pose instead of the foregoing these facts were reported: “Washington, July 1, 1918.—Every elec? tric light and power plant in the United States was destroyed at midnight. No elec- tricity is available, nor can any be made available for lighting, transportation or mi chanical power for the balance of the year, and it will take at least eight months, in the opinion of experts, to rebuild and equip the plants. Fifty per cent. of the industries of the country are paralyzed for lack of elec- tric power. New York, Boston, Philadel- phia, Chicago and all the other cities are without transportation for industrial work- ers, bank employes, waiters, office help and other labor and clerical forces. The produc- tion of munitions and war materials has ceased,” Could the nation prosecute the war with- out its great public utilities? The Hon. John Skelton troller of the Currency Congress said: t Williams, Con- in his last report to National and state banks and many thousands of small and large investors have suffered seriously from the decline of the earning capacity of publi utility corporations and the consequent shrink in the value of their securities, representing invest ments of many hundred millions of dollars losses naturally diminish the power and disp: of the public to respond to the calls of the & These ition vern. I fully share the views you express regarding the t importance of the public service utilities as a p of our national equipment, especially in war time It is essential that these utilities should be main tained at their maximum efficiency and that every thing reasonably possible should be done with that end in view, The public utilities are the labor-saving tools and machinery of the country. The street car saves the time and labor millions would otherwise use in walking to and from their work; the electric power plant saves the time and labor of other millions working by hand. If the electric power plants of the country should all be destroyed, there are not enough hands in the United States to do the work they have been doing. The industries of the country are stimu- lated by the extraordinary demands of our government and its allies for food, and cloth- ing, and munitions, and guns, and all those industries depend vitally on the uninterrupt- ed, efficient and expanding service of the great public utiliti without which war work would cease; and if the total destruc- tion of the utility systems would paralyze in- dustry, so must any impairment of the ef- ficiency of our utilities slow down the indu tries of the country and reduce the country production, Many Industries Face Insolvency Yet at this critical moment of the war, this crucial moment in the history of civiliza- Puget Sound Traction, Light & Power Company increased under almost universal regulations by the public utility commissions of several states but a small fraction of the increases of the necessary costs of their operations. Their credits has therefore been impatred by a decrease in their net eargings applicable to interest on their bonds and dividends on their stock, and further increases in the costs of operation are probable. Even if their earnings were unimpaired, in many instances they cannot command the assist- ance of the investment funds of the country at the rates they can afford to pay for mon- ey, because the government financing has so largely absorbed the resources of the in- vestors of the country. War Conditions These are war conditions, and because they affect national efficiency they are na- tional questions; and because this nation, to win this war, must immediately and contin- uously make its greatest possible output of war materials, the situation is a war emer- gency, recognized by the public utterances of the President of the United States and his chief financial advisers. The first and obvious remedy for this dan- gerous slackening in industrial efficiency is such an increase in the prices which can be charged by the public utility companies for their necessary war service as will re-estab- lish their credit.
