"This line of reasoning repeated is
as follows:
"The public is the party most ben
efitted by Improvements in the elec
tric art and lessening the cost of ser
vice. Improved and cheaper service
can be obtained only by holding out
high premiums to inventors, engineers
and manufacturers. These premiums
are made possible through the profit
able operation of the properties as
they already exist.
"The task laid upon the business
end of the industry is very difficult.
It calls for fully as much brain pow
er as do the professional departments
demanding the kind of ability just as
special In its features as that de
manded by engineering.
"Permit me to quote from a recent
address which I made to the manag
ers and heads of departments of the
H. N. Byllesby companies:
" 'The ideal manager should be a
man who understands the public bet
ter than the best politician in his
city; a man who is versed In practi
cal modern sociology, and who under
stands, not only big financial matters
and large business ideas, but the live
of the people as well.

" "Properties are usually the larg
est single Industry in the community.
It Is fitting that our managers should
take a position among the leading
men of the city.
" 'The manager should have the
widest possible local acquaintance
and particularly should he be in close
touch with the leaders of thought.bus
iness and progress In his community.
He should study the city, Its people
ana" its prospects and its needs with
unceasing vigilance.
" 'The ideal utility manager should
be an Integral part of the city; In
sympathy with the aspirations of the
different groups of which it is com
posed and foremost among the plan
ners for municipal advancement. Of
keep free. In all local quarrels and
political entanglements he should
keep free. In all local quarrels and
controversies he must maintain a neu
tral attitude, keeping always in mind
the principle that it is his duty to
serve the whole community to the
best of his ability".
"I have been amazed, disheartened
and discouraged time and again with
the narrowness and inefficiency of
men who posed as managers of utility
properties. I have found them rail
ing at men and conditions when they
themselves were the biggest pessim
ists and the worst croakers in the
community. I have observed them
sitting like ugly frogs on a log, be
wailing the state of public mind and
the cussedness of the consumer, let
ting their property go to pieces and
their service deteriorate, creatures of
weak and shameless despair.
"What is more natural but that peo
pie Join in throwing the handiest ob
jects at the croaker? The impulse
is human and common. The people
have no use for the man or the man
agement filled with bitterness and
inefficiency t'evoid of energetic action
and confidence in the future.
"My personal view of the future Is
very hopeful and encouraging. The
fact that a 'Commercial Day' has
been set aside by the National Elec
tric Light Association is a splendid
indication of the change which is tak
ing place in the methods of central
management toward the public.
"During the last year much educa
tional advertising work has been done
by operating companies. A large pro
portion of it has teen effective; none
without value.
"Scores of New Business Depart
ment have beeii created and equip

panies; to meet the PM'lo
