Press Comment
Sound "Public Ownership"
The public utilities of the United
States present an Investment of more
than $28,000,000,000. Of this, elec
tric light and power companies ac
count for 912,000,000,000 with the
telephone and telegraph, street rail
ways and gas companies standing at
about $5,000,000,000 each.
Such a sum, which is almost be
yond the power of the human Imagi
nation to encompass, can be, and has
been, raised In but one way: Through
the combined Investments, large
and small, of millions of American
citizens w,ao have bought utility se
curities, believing them to be safe,
sound and profitable.
These Americans, found in all bus
inesses, In all walks of life, are the
"power trust." A very few of them,
it Is safe to aay, are capitalists in
the accepted sense of the term. Most
of them undoubtedly have modest
Incomes, many of them are laborers.
They are the owners of the Ameri
can electrio industry, one of our
greatest nd most substantial em
ployers and taxpayers, Industrial Re
view, San Francisco.
