they are. We would have a sewer system and would not
be wallowing in mud in the outlying districts. The fol
lowing article from the Tacoma News-Tribune clearly
illustrates our point:
The profit made by the municipally owned power
plant of this city is the cause of a heated controversy
that has been going on among California newspapers.
The other day the Sacramento Bee published an editor
ial discussing the reports of the operation of the Tacoma
plant. In this article was included the following state
ment: "Today the income of this plant has increased to a
point where the net profit for the year 1925 will ap
proximate $1,000,000."
The Sacramento Union immediately leaped into the
fray, contradicting this assertion and branding it in this
fashion: "Without havine the official report of the delegates the important position
Tacoma plant before us, we venture the confident as- j fuamath Fans now occupies among
sertion that the above statement is pure moonshine." "Xoa upon s the coming
The Union then weaves this ingenious argument:
, citv on the coast, both as a .manu

income of not less than $20,000,000 annually. Thisjsaim. said.
would mean that after paying wages and salaries, up
keep, interest, amortization, fire and industrial insur
ance and allowing fpr depreciation, the Tacoma plant
had left a sum equivalent to 5 per cent of the gross re
ceipts. That would be a handsome profit if it ex
isted. "The 1920 census gives the population of Tacoma as
96,965... Today the total population is probably about
100;000. " Now, if the Tacoma power plant takes in
$20,000,000 gross this year it must collect a sum Irom
the sale of electric energy equivalent to $200 for every
inhabitant over 14 years old. That in turn is equiva
lent to about $750 for every household, business and in
dustry. Consider that the total volume of business done
by the Pacafic Gas and Electric company for 1924, in all
its large and populous territory, amounted to only $44,
000,000." Following this remarkable financial analysis the Union
proceeds, "To speak plainly, the story about Tacoma is
utterly false."
Distressing as it may seem to our Sacramento contem
porary and its critical financial diagnosis, the original
statement of profit is absolutely true. The flaw lies in
the fact that the Union figures the profit at only 5
per cent of the gross receipts. As a matter of cold bus
iness fact, the 1924 statement of the Tacoma plant
showed an operating revenue of $1,516,960.31, with an
operating expense of $608,070.96, which leaves an oper
ating gain of $908,289.35. Miscellaneous expenses de
ducted bring this figure to $840,827.29. and the provision
for a sinking fund and bonds reduce the profit to $772,
952.27. During the first nine months of 1925 the operating
revenue was $1,135,703.75, the operating expense $395,
368.61, showing a gain of $760,935.14. After deducting
miscellaneous expense, bonds and sinking fund, the net
profit is $700,960.55.
The valuation of the light department property on
Nov. 1, was $10,294,270.05, with $389,743.50 of money
raised by Cushman bonds still unexpended. The bond
ed indebtedness of the department is $4,592,000, of
which $4,300,000 in bonds were voted to pay for the
Cushman project.'
It is no wonder that outsiders fail to believe the' re
cord of earnings of this municipally operated plant.
Its success is so outstanding that it almost challenges
belief.
