NI’CRAY TO FACE FEDERAL CHARGES IN COURT MONDAY Governor Expected to Take Stand in Own Defense During Trial, Trial of Governor McCray on charges of using the mails in a scheme to defraud will begin in B’ederal Court Monday. Judge Albert B. Anderson will T>reside Governor McCray also is under indictment in Federal Court together with Amos D. Morris, formerly cashier the Discount and Deposit State Bank of Kentland, of which Governor McCray formerly was president, on a charge of conspiracy to violate national banking laws. Morris pleaded guilty when arraigned, the Governor not guilty. This case has not been set for trial. The Government will attempt to prove Governor McCray made false representations through the mails to banks to induce them to loan him money or discount paper. These representations, it will be contended, were in the form of false financial statements and false statements as to the character of "cattle paper” offered the banks for collateral or discount. 200 Witnesses in Case The is expected to last from ten days to two weeks. About 200 witnesses will take the stand. Os

these about 175 will testify for the State. For the greater part' they will be bank representatives who appeared before the Federal grand jury. Many of them were witnesses in the recent case in Criminal Court against the Governor when he was tried for embezzlement and larceny of $155,000 of the funds of the Indiana board of agriculture." The trial resulted in a hung jury. It is believed Homer Elliott, United States district attorney, who will conduct the Government’s case, willTely largely upon documentary evidence, such as letters of the Governor to the banks. Poßtoffiee inspectors have been a't work on the case since last fall, and it is known they have gathered a large volume of correspondence between the Governor and banks and a large number of notes given the banks for discount or collateral on loans. The Governor will be represented by the same attorneys who conducted his case in Criminal Court, Jarries W. Noel, Martin Hugg, George M. Barnard, John Ruckelshaus and Michael A. Ryan. Governor to Testify It is expected the Governor will take the stand In his own behalf. It is known he was anxious to testify In the criminal court case, but his at-

What Electricity Costs And Why For the Information of The People Who Pay For It Yesterday, in these columns, there was some explanation of how the amount of money that must tie invested in the production of Electricity is determined. It must be enough to provide machinery and distribution for the largest quantity of service that may be called for at any one time. That quantity is called the “maximum demand,” and it has a good deal to do with the price to the customer. How does the “maximum demand” affect the price? This way—in every business requiring an investment two distinct charges are made to determine the cost of the product. One is on the fixed investment, which includes interest, rent, taxes and depreciation. These charges do not depend at all on the amount of business done or product manufactured. They are the cost of providing buildings and equipment. Interest goes on whether the plant is worked or not, and whether it is worked to full capacity or half of it. Taxes go on with equal lack of regard. Buildings and equipment grow old and depreciate whether they are used or not. Therefore, the burden of carrying these, in any business, is part of the cost of production, whether this be great or small. The Public Service Commission recognizes these as part of the cost of service and allows for them in making rates for Electricity and other forms of public supply and service. The other element of costs come from the actual production of service or supply, and manifests itself in the amounts which have to be paid for labor and materials. In the case of the Company furnishing Electricity these costs are for the pay roll, the coal bill, the oil bill and the like—all labor and material. These costs depend upon the amount of product and of business done, and vary with it. If a great quantity of F.ectricity is produced it means big labor and coal bills. If a smaller quantity is produced the labor and coal bills are less. But all the time the expense of the capital investment runs on evenly, whether production be great or small. A rate schedule, defining the prices which the consumers must pay for Electricity, must, when applied to the whole business done with all its customers for a given period, produce enough income to provide for paying for all the expenses of performing the service, that is to say, the pay rolls, the coal bills and all the other expenses growing out of the actual production of Electricity, and, in addition, enough more to provide a reasonable return upon the capital which was invested in a plant which was good enough and big enough to perform the service required. This latter sum has to be paid whether the business furnishes a full load or a part load for the plant. The difference, in making a rate, or price for Electricity is this: If the business is a great one, using the plant to its capacity for a normal part of the time, then these capital costs are spread over a greater use, and are lower for each unit of use. If the business is smaller than a full load, the capital costs are spread over a smaller use. and are higher for each unit used. In other words, this means that the customer, to earn lower rates, must use more kilowatt hours for the capacity installed or the investment which the Company has made, to be “ready to serve” him. When we speak of the customer’s demand we mean “the greatest amount of Electricity normally used by the customer at any one time.” The plant must be of sufficient capacity to give each customer proper service at the time that the greatest quantity of Electricity is being used by all the customers. This is called technically the “system’s maximum demand.” In making up the cost of a supply of Electricity for a community like Indianapolis, the capital charges, then, are those which are concerned with providing a return upon the investment which is ready to run when the public demands its service; while the operating costs are the expenses of running the plant that has already been provided in the condition of being ready to run. The first item of capital charges is independent of how much business is done. The last one of operating expenses depends wholly on the amount of business. Thus, we see that the Companif.s have two separate and distinct kinds of expense. The first is determined by the magnitude of the customers’ demand. The second is the actual cost of the production of Electricity, the coal, the labor and the rest—and this depends upon the number of kilowatt hours of Electric service which is furnished each customer. The sum of the coincident desires for Electricity or demands of all the customers determines the capacity of the system, and 3ince each unit of capacity costs a stipulated amount to cover capital charges (depreciation, taxes, insurance, etc.) which are entirely independent of the number of kilowatt hours sold, each customer must pay his share of those capital charges, the total amount of which are dependent upon the aggregate amount of all customers’ demand occurring at the time of the system’s maximum demand. It is very essential, therefore, that we know the greatest amount of Electricity that each customer normally used at any one time, or in other words, his “maximum demand” and its relation to the “system’s maximum demand.” This gives the amount of equipment, and therefore, the investment the Company must have “in readiness to serve him.” Prom this figure is determined the amount of capital which must get a reasonable return. This reasonable return must be contributed by all the users of the service, in proportion to the amount of use they get out of it. The customer who uses a constant amount of Electricity, so many kilowatts so many hours a day, pays his share, based on the opportunity which his demands give the investment an opportunity to earn. The customer who throws on a big demand for a short period pays his share, too, but it is based to some extent on the small opportunity that he gives the investment which his demand has called into existence to earn its keep. Capital invested in the production of Electricity only asks to be allowed to work to earn its living. If it is asked to stand idle a large part of the time, to be ready to work for someone’s convenience for only a little while of every day, it must ask pay for its stand-by time. At that, wasn’t it John Milton, who said: “They also serve who only stand and wait.'* MERCHANTS HEAT & LIGHT COMPANY “THE DAYLIGHT CORNER"

Economy? Don’t buy up 5-cent car tickets with the hope of using them after May 20! The commission stipulates that 5-cent tickets can be redeemed for cash at the company’s office or can be used as, part fare —2 cents additional being required—when presented to conductors after May 20. One citizen, with the hope of saving many shekels, appeared at the company's office this week and tried to buy SSOO worth of 5-cent ticke s, a State official said.

tomeys kept him off the witness stand to save his testimony for the Federal case. At the time the Marion County grand jury considered his case, he made several efforts to obtain permission to go before that body and frequently has said he was anxious to tell his side of the financial transactions which resulted in his indictment. A reform of the calendar that would cause Easter to fall on a fixed day has frequently been proposed.

YOKE PREDICTS AN INCREASED FAX FOR REPAIR OFSCHOOLS ♦ ‘Decent Seat for Every Child in a % Decent Building,’ Is Board Objective. “A decent seat for every child in a decent building.” This, according to Charles R. Yoke, president of the school board, speaking at th” dedication of the Theodore Potter Fresh Air School Thursday night, must be the objective of the hoard. To accomplish this, he predicted that an increased tax levy for school purposes will be necessary. Reviews School Survey Yoke reviewed the survey of the school rysUm, which showed a surprisingly large number of buildings

need remrdeling and an installation of modern sanitary appliances. “It will require a grtat deal of money to provide these needs for the present buildings and it now looks as though additional money will have to be raised by taxes,” he declared. Other Talks Made The dedication drew a large crowd. Talks were made by E. U. Graff, superintendent of schools: Dr. Alfred Henry, president of the Marion County Tuberculosis Association, and Sol Schloss, president of the Indianapolis board of health. Two playlets, “The Quest for the Fountain of Health” and “Alphabet Health Quotations,” were presented by pupils.
