When a pair of shoes wear out you

HAT APPROXIMATELY $700,000,000 is required
by the public utility companies of the country to
provide service for an additional million inhabitants
is one of the interesting facts brought forth in the
lbwiu; puousnea repon oi senator wuuam m. aiucrs uum
mittee on Reconstruction and Production.
After a searching inquiry into the various conditions bear
ing upon the housing situation and the country's industrial pro
duction, the Committee finds that the business of public utilities
has outgrown their plant facilities owing to the inability of the
companies to finance improvements and additions necessary to
take care of increased service demands.
"Prior to the war," states the Committee, "it is estimated
that the normal annual requirements of elecric railway, gas, and
electric light and power companies for extensions, betterments,
and improvements was about $500,000,000, proportioned as
follows: electric railways, $250,000,000; gas companies, $125,
000,000; electric light and power companies, $125,000,000.
The Committee has informed that for four years not over
40 per cent of such betterments has been made, leaving an ac
cumulation of about $1,200,000,000. If to this sum is added the
$700,000,000 required alone for service to new residential
buildings held in abeyance, a total of approximately $2,000,000,
000 seems necessary for the public utility program in the im
mediate future.
"The question of placing these businesses on a sound finan
cial basis in order that credit may flow to them is the same ques
tion which confronts steam railroads and housing, but in the
case of public utilities the situation is more difficult because
there is no central body as now provided in the case of steam
lailroads which might adjust rates in proper relation to operat
ing costs and capital investment. The utilities likewise suffer
in their effort to secure new capital for necessary extensions of
service by the almost insurmountable difficulty of having to com
pete for such capital with municipal, state and similar tax
exempt securities. Until these problems are solved the public
should recognize this underlying reason for much of the faulty
service and for the failure to provide the additional facilities
urgently demanded to meet community needs." paid adv.
