Only In tbo regions near tho oil field has .tho chango been such as to mako oil a competitor of coal. To tho Editer: Thoro seems to bo n great deal of misunderstanding by tho public gen erally as to tho powers nnd duties of tho Public Service, commission, nnd as It Is hard to understand tho various orders ot .t lit? commission without having n gonoral under standing of the law on which these orders nro based. It Is thought no more than Just and fair to tho pub lie that such Information bo placed before them. Tho popular vlow, It appears", pro ceeds upon tho erroneous assumption that It Is within tho power, ot tho legislature to delegate to an adminis trative body, such ns this, nn arbi trary authority. As a matter of fact, thn legislature has fold down a rule for this commission to follow, nnd that Is that nil rates shall ho Just and reasonable antl the net makes tho rule apply equally to tho public and tho utility. Tho commission cannot approve or reject applications for change In rateif at will, we, llko tho Judges of our courts, must Judgo tho cases be fore us and mako our findings and order strictly upon tho sworn testi mony and tho record. Wo aro under solemn oath to support tho constl tutlon and tho laws of Oregon and to faithfully perform our duties accord ing to tho law. Wo aro but human and If erroro are made, an appeal to tho courts from our decision Is provided for b) law. Our position during thesu con struction period following the war Is not an onvlnblo ono. Wo, by our very relation to tho public nnd to tho utilities, must nssumo n posture most Inviting to tho "kicker Wo must consider tho natural an tipathy ot tho public to Increased rates and at tbo samo time boar In mind that a commissioner who could bo turned from tho straight and narrow path of his duty and oath of otflco by popular clamor would not only lolato his oath of office li'it would bo unworthy ot the re spect of any honest man. In explanation of tho tolephono rate, situation In Oregon, may wo stato that during tho tlmo of federal conlrol of tbo telophono lines, Post master General Burleson attempted to placo Increased tolephono rates In "effect throughout tho United States. This commission, as you ma recall, took Jssuo with him and refused to pormlt tho Increases to become ef fective In Oregon without a thorough Investigation as to tho reasonableness of such rate, and so far as wo aro able to ascertain tho so-called Bur leson rates aro In effect throughout Tho placo for pushing "used to bo behind before, but now It a In front at last."

Got It? Having completed our Investiga tion and experimented at tho util ity's oxponso with lower rates dur ing tho patt two years, wo find that utlic company linn actually lost hun dreds of thousands of dollam from operutlvn In Oregon. Wo hnvo, theroforo, granted an Increase In rates that wilt afford n return of ap proximately six per cent (or tho yvar 19S 1 upon tho physical value of tho company's plant lit Oregon, as fixed by this commission. This rnto was ascertained after two years' study and analysis by our engineering and uccountlng force. Said value, by tho way, la suvcral million dollars lea than that claimed by tho company Needless to sny, tho bnsu rate vnli.o, as fixed by this commission, does not Includu any ullowanco for stocks or bonds or fruiftlilsn value. It Is not generally understood, that thcro Is need of ninny millions of now capital Investment In order to aduquutedly servo tho public and keep abreast of tho rapid develop ment ot our state, nnd that this ad ditional cayltal must bo obtained by sale of new securities and not from rovonuo derived from rales jiald by tho public. In order to bo nhto to borrow new capital at rVasonablo rates of Interest, tho utility must be sound financially, that Is. rccolvlng a fair rate of return from tho honest Investment in tho present plant.
