Heat Wave Stirs Up Arguments Against Municipal Utilities Else er Walzer By ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor New York W A heat wave in the New York area has con jured up new problems of mi- ,L crralmn fmm the big city to suburbs, and stirred up new arguments against munic ipal control of utilities. The hot weather with its rising use of water hit r.n community hard. It was notheast Yonkers where scarely a tricttle cam out of the faucets fcu the. lower areas of the ct U4ti tons of water for sprin- k-' mi It mams 'that this section of the? eit tht tdjoins New York eft the north hed a big home building drive over the past 10 yegrf. So many homes were built that the old water facilities prosed inadequate. Txiente Industry Weil Streetert. discussing that phase, hnld that the only way the residents will get adequate water in Ihe foreseeable future la to torn over that utility to private industry which plans mnny years ahead and has fa cilities ready when they are needed. Just about the time that these arguments for privately owned water service were at their height in the financial district, the heat caused some power dif ficulties in the area around the Stock Exchange. Air conditioning was hit in some buildings to the discomfort of the tenants. The Stock Ex change's air-conditioning system, oldest in town, worked fine through it all. When the power .'company had to clip down its voltage, there were loud screams from the proponents of public power. "See what we told you," they shouted. "The private utilities aren't one whit better than the municipal plants." Just about the time the private utility side was ready to pull in its horns, Consolidated Edison Company was in full swing to lick the situation. A few hours after the first dip in power, power was racing over the grid system to New York with companies as far distant as Niagara-Mohawk par ticipating. The power shortage was knocked out in a twinkling and the public power boys stop ped yelling. Incidentally, an argument brought out in the Yonkers situation was that while the water, supplied by municipal plants, failed there never was a hitch in gas or electricity sup plied by Consolidated Edison, which planned ahead for just such an emergency. Americans To Spend Record Sum This Year For Air Conditioning New York 'IK Americans Vill snend. more than S3. 500, 0ftO.9u" this year to show that t-wea have changed since Mark Twain remarked that people al ways talk about weather but don't do anything about it. This huge expenditure some $30 million greater than in 1356, will go for air conditioning the nation's homes, churches, stores, office buildings, factories and places of recreation. In the past 20 years the amount of money spent to do something about the weather has skyrocketed 6.000 per cent. Boom Just Beginning "We've just tapped the market for air conditioning." Cloud Wampler, chairman of Carrier Corp., told the United Press "Within five years the industry's annual volume will be around S5 billion." In many segments of the econ omy, and in the warmer areas of the country, air conditioning no longer is looked upon as a luxury. Industry leaders pointed out that competition for employees is so keen that companies arc turning to air conditioning as an extra selling feature. Demand a Problem D. C. Minard. president of the Trane Co.. said the industry's biggest problem in the next dec ade will be "keeping pace with demand." "The potential is certainly in viting, not only in new construc tion, but in the moderization of existing buildines as well." he isaid.
