YOU ARE INTERESTED
IN POUR W AYS
(Editorial from Collier’s W eekly)
Are public utilities "Interesting?”
The average American Is interested
in them as a consumer, a taxpayer, a
voter, and as An Investor. * In how
many of these groups do you fall?
Certainly In the first three, and prob
ably In all four. If you do not fall
in the Investor class* but are carry
ing some form of insurance, or have
money in a savings bank, the prob
abilities are that some of your money
is reinvested in public utilities.
Your interest in your local light
company or street railway company
is much more than a passing inter
est: and your study of Its affairs
should go deeper than a. mere criti
cism of Its bills and its service. It
is your business to look far enough
behind the scenes to know whether
complaints are Justified, , whether
they are the results o f poor manage
ment or grasping management, or
are due to tha company's not being
allowed to earn enough revenue to
enable It ttT give satisfactory ser
vice.
Many of the utility companies have
had a hard time, during the past
few years of Inflation, in maintain
ing the Integrity of their credit
structures. Regulated as they are
by state commissions— slow moving
bodies that must ac{ with caution on
the question of Increased rates— they
have in practically no case been able
to increase their charges in propor
tion to the increase In thetr costs.
However, most of them have now ob
tained increases enough to maintain
their solvency and to justify confi
dence in their future.
The cost to the public of heat,
light, power, telephones, street-rail
way transportation, and other con
veniences furnished by the utility
companies has increased compar
atively little during the past few
years. To pay their fixed charges,
many of the companies have had to
reduce dividends or cut them o ff en
tirely. Out of earnings, few com
panies have been able to proceed with
needed development and expansion,
and much of what has been done
along that line has been done by
payments out of surplus, or by bor
rowing more money.
A broken-down utility hurts a
town. We-cannot get along without
heat, without light, without power,
without telephones, without street
railways. We have every right to
demand that if we give the utilities
a square deal we shall get in return
a square deal from them.

The appearance of a bird is not al

The comb, face, and wattles should
