! ' AH expenditures of capital and use
ef materials on work that can possibly
be deferred until after the war must
be stopped by all public utilities In the
United States, according to instructions
received from Washington yesterday
by the various utilities In Portland.
As Interpreted here, the public serv
ice commission, state, county and city
authorities are superseded In authority,
and even if certain work, outlay of
capital and use of material is definitely
called for under local franchise terms,
the Government now says that such
work must be deferred until after the
close of the war.
The case of the Portland 'Railway,
Light Power Company is typical, as
It operates under the jurisdiction of
the American Llectric Railway Asbo
elation War Board. President Griffith
was notified from Washington that he
should "report to this board any in
stance In which your company is being
compelled to make renewals or exten
ions by municipal or state authorities
under franchise or other contractual
requirements of a character that come
within the purview of the following
letters.
Exteaaioaa.
The letters consist of correspondence
between C 8. Hamlin, chairman of the
Capital Issues Committee and Bernard
M. Baruch. chairman of the War In
dustries Board, bearing upon the situa
tion. In the first letter, dated October
1, Chairman Hamlin writes:
Oa Aniut S3 the Capital Issues Commit
tee sent out to the Public Utility Com- I 4
mlasiooa of the several states a letter re- I
euestlnff co-ope rati on In the effort of the I
committee to conserve capital, and aussested
that the Public .Utility Companies bo al
lowed to curtail capital expenditures for
extensions whenever poaalble. and except in
instances of urirent war necessity to defer
them entirely until tbe war had ended.
The Public Utility Companies were In
favor of this sction and the Commissioners
senerally have been entirely agreeable to
Burn curtailment and deferment, but In some
Instances there baa been dissatisfaction on
the part of the public and a tendency to
insist on extensions of and service connec
tions with water mains, electrical trunk
lines and fas malna, and extensions of elec
trie railway service.
This committee recomlses the Justice of
the demand In every case where compelling;
war necessity Is present, but If only ordinary
convenience la Involved, which in peace times
nifiu amount to a necessity, but under wsr
conditions would be classed as a luxury,
the committee believes your board will be
unwilling to permit the use of materials
unless the need for war purposes caa be
Clearly demonatrsted.
niii you kindly live us a general rule
Bottnr such exceptions aa you feel should
be made In order that we may be guided
in givins opinions on sppllcattons for capital
Issues for extensions of public utilities.
To this. Chairman Baruch replied:
Referring to your letter of October 1. In
regard to public utility requirements, msy
I bring to your attention the desirability of
holding down all expenditures to what is
aosoiuteiy neeaea. not what is wanted? In
view or ine demands for materisls for wsr
purposes, the Wsr Industries Board would
set and cannot permit the use of materials
unless tne need for war purposes csa be
