Gentlemen:
Your committee on program havo
asked mo to discuss the public util
ities problem before your meeting.
This subject is bo broad that It
is ainiciilt for mo to determlno
what phase of tho subject would bo
of tho greatest interest to you. I
hnvo, however, tried to procure In
formation from vnrlous localities
bearing on the cost of service nnd
also tho quality of sorvlco furnish
ed to determlno bo fnr as I could,
by what means tho most ofTlclont
sorvlco was obtained at least cost
to tho people. This necessitated
some resenrch In outside localities
where at dlfforent times tho peo
plo of different cities had oppor
tunity to compnro tho quality nnd
the cost of tho sorvlco under muni
cipal ownership of public utilities
with tho cost nnd quality of Borvlco
under privato or corpornto owner
ship. To get roltnblo Information
on this subject, I folt It was neces
sary, or at least worth while, to
got Information from cities In var
ious parts of tho country outsldo of
tho State, as well ns cities within
tho state.
While tho conditions in various
parts of tho stato nro very much
different and havo a very consld
orablo bearing on tho cost in dif
ferent localities, that Ib conditions
existing In Sioux City might mnko
tho oxpenso of constructing nnd
oporntlng n wntor works plant
much .greater or much less than
tho oxponso 'of building, mnlntnin
Ing nnd operating n plant for tho
Bnmo quality of sorvlco In Dcs
Moines or somo other city within
tho stato.

McClung declined to discuss his

it Is rumored tho resignation Is

118 cities being found botweon

35 conts, 48 cents. Flftcon conts
was found In three cltlos, 16 In
two cities, 20 in thrco cltlos, 25 in
four cltlos.
In discussing theso Mr, Jordan
stated that ho found that practical
ly all cities which havo Installed
water filtration plants -during tho
past fow years havo found It nec
essary to Incrcnso their rates In
order to meet tho Increased expen
ditures on account of Intorest and
depreciation on capital invested and
the additional cost of oporatlon.
Comparing rates whoro tho wa
tor is furnished by a privato com
pany with thoso where tho plant Is
municipal, wo find tho motor .rates
to average 30 cents whoro tho wa
tor Ib supplied by prlvnto company,
and 20 conts whoro suppllod by
municipal plant. In tho flat rates
tho averago rato for a alx-room
house Is $7.00 por year where sup
plied by privato company and $0.05
por year where Bupplled by a mu
nicipal plant This would appear
to Indicate that water can bo fur
nished cheaper by a municipal
plant than by a private company:
but wo havo several times called
attention to tho unreliability of
any such comparisons, owing to the
fact that a part of tho operating
expenses, Blnklng fund or other
overhead charges may not bo pro
vided for in tho municipal rato:

It is with plcnsuro that I ac

the now franchlso which It Is try

coroly for tho gullnnt effort you

a squnro deal for Marshflold. I
do hope thnt tho good pooplo of
our fair city can fully npprcclnto
your position In this matter nnd
will lend nil posslblo moral cu

I mny add that I am ngnlnst any

my position clear by stating thnt
wntor Is a necessity nnd must bo

say that had tho Marshflold Wator

bollovo that tho health of any
community should bo bargained for
In any mannor whon It comes to a
