OTHER r A UTHORITIES President Wilson in an address before the students of the University of California said: "I'UllMO SERVICE OOltl'OltATlONM ARE IN A VERY INTERESTINO SENSE NATURAL MONOPOLIES. IT IS PERFECTLY ORVIOUS THAT IK OTHER COMPANIES ARE ALLOWED TO COMPETE WITH THEM THERE IS A WASTEFUL DUPLICATION IN OUTLAY AND EQUIPMENT." Walter L. Fisher, ex-Secretary of the Interior, said before the National Water ways Commission in November, 1911: "I THINK HYRHO.ElECTHIO DEVELOPMENT IS ESSENTIALLY MONOPOLISTIC, AND SHOULD RE ESSENTIALLY MONOPOLISTIC IN ITS CHARACTER. THAT IS WHY I THINK IT SHOULD RE EFFECT- ' IVEIiY REOUIiATED. I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE THE ARYAN TAOE OK THE CONTROL OK THE MARKET, AND FREEDOM KROM HARASSING AND VEXATIOUS COMPETITION IK WE ARE GOINO TO PUT THEM UNDER THE DISADVANTAGES OK EKKEOTIVE PURLIC HEGUIiATION."

"IT NECESSARILY .MEANS THAT INTEREST AND MAINTENANCE MUST RE EARNED ON A .MUCH GREATER, IK NOT TWICE AS GREAT, AN INVESTMENT 'AND THAT THE ACTUAL COST OK OPERATION IS LIKELY TO RE RELATIVELY HIGHER. "COMPETITION IN THIS SERVICE, THEREFORE, USUALLY .MEANS A HITTER STRUGGLE AND LOW RATES UNTIL ONE OF THE CONTESTANT'S IS FORCED OUT OK THE FIELD, WHEN THE RATES ARE RAISED TO THE OLD LEVEL, IK NOT AROVE IT, OR TO A COM BINATION OR.

"IN THIS WAY IT OFTEN HAPPENS THAT THE .MEANS WHICH WERE THOUGHT TO BE THE PREVENTATIVE OK ONEROUS CONDI TIONS BECOME THE VERY AGENTS THROUGH WHICH SUCH CONDI TIONS ARE IMPOSED. IN FACT, ACTIVE AND CONTINUOUS COMPE T1TION BETWEEN PURLIC UTILITY CORPORATIONS, FURNISHING THE SAME SERVICE TO THE SAME LOCALITY, SEEMS TO RE OUT OK THE QUESTION. IS ALSO CONTRARY TO THE VERY NATURE OK THINGS. TWO DIS TINCT AND SEPARATE CORPORATIONS ARE NOT LIKELY TO REMAIN TINOT AND SEPARATE CORPORATIONS ARE NOT LKELY TO REMAIN SEPARATE VERY LONG AFTER IT RECOMES CLEAR THAT THE 8EH VICES RENDERED RY ROTH CAN BE MORE CHEAPLY AND EFFEC TIVELY FURNISHED RY ONLY ONE OK THEM."

Willi our farms loft unfenced so that tho rabbits may obtain nn nbundnnco of food, wo will probably never de stroy this pest by poisoning, although wo may kill thousands of thorn ench month.
