And the results have more than justified the move; in fact, they have provided a telling example of the bene fits of municipal ownership. In a report just issued by City Clerk Engram, a net profit of 5116,000 for the municipal treasury is shown for that period, while each succeeding year has produced a larger surplus for the city treasury. Part of this money has been used to meet obligations entered into when the plant was purchased. But more than $50,000 has been made available from this source for municipal improvements such as the pur chase of new fire eaufnment and street uaviner. This has been done even with the city purchasing its; current from a private corporation. If it owned its own hydro-electric plant as well, how much better showing could be made? There is a lesson for other Sacramento valley commun ities in what Redding has done. Especially should it spur Sacramento on to the completion- of her own Silver Creek project.

They had to have it. but when they got it they accused it of hoggish ness. Capital in turn, accused the west erners of trying to play it for a sucker.
