PARLEY CALLED TO DEVISE NEW RELIEF SYSTEM Mrs. Noone Asks Critics to Offer Better Aid Plan, If They Can. Questions concerning bread tickets, coal, the price of potatoes and the make-work campaign sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce bobbed up today in what is branded & politically inspired attack on the system of poor relief ir. Center township. Countering the attack, Mrs. Hannah Noone has called a meeting of representatives of the county council, the county commissioners, wholesalers and retailers and social service agencies at the office of the superintendent of schools this afternoon to draft new plans, if any are necessary, to administer the work. The eight coal dealers who have been filling Center township requisitions for fuel since the first of the year met this morning in Mrs. Noone’s office to discuss a proposed reduction in price. Furnish Good Coal They unanimously pointed out that with the wholesale price of the quality delivered—first-grade Indiana No. 6—lt was impossible to furnish it in one-ton deliveries for less than *5.50 a ton. This same quality of coal is being retailed to commercial credit accounts at $5.75 a ton. There are cheaper coals, it was said, but the heat unit value was far less and the amount of ash and sulphur far more. The quality furnished was chosen because of its heat value and because it would have to be burned in cheaper quality stoves and furnaces. The preceding administration paid $6 a ton for coal, it was revealed. Meanwhile the county council met in a secret session Monday night to consider the matter. Snider Denies Report The complaints started with a report that George Snider, president of the board of county commissioners, had said he “would not approve another claim from bread companies’’ under the present plan of distribution of bread tickets. Snider later emphatically denied he had made any such statement, but that, on the contrary, he considered that Mrs. Noone "had done some very fine things’’ in relieving the chaotic conditions of poor aid in the township. His statements were supported by Commissioner Dow Vorhies. Monday, several of the malcontents among the charity recipients appeared before the council to complain that the price of potatoes furnished was too high. Bills for $159,000 Walter Clarke, attorney for Mrs. Noone, explained that the lists of food sent out had been prepared by social service agencies and other authorities. Harry Dunn, county auditor, submitted bills for poor relief in excess of $159,000, the great part of which was contracted during the last Irwo months of the previous administration, together with a complaint that prices being paid—although loyrer than those incurred during the tenure of Mrs. Amelia Harding—still were exorbitant, and quoted prices being paid by county institutions in comparison. Several plans for changes were discussed, among them being the installation of central distribution points'! This procedure, previously suggested, was protested by social service agencies as working too great a hardship on the poor, many of whom are unable to call for or carry their baskets. Plan Deemed Inadvisable Another, calling for establishment of a county purchasing agent, purchase of the necessary foodstuffs at wholesale, and packing of the baskets by the county, was opposed because of the necessity under such a plan for a large staff of packers, as well as warehouse to handle the materials. We have no political ax to grind over here, no matter what others may do,’’ Mrs. Noone said today. ’ Our books are wide open. If any one can suggest a better plan than the one we are now using, we will welcome it. “That plan, of course, must take into consideration the rights of our poor people, as well as those of the county.” License Office Robbed BRAZIL, Ind., Jan. 27.—The Brazil auto license bureau was robbed of more than S2OO when burglars broke into the office, carried a small safe Into an alley and knocked off the combination.

CITY WILL USE NEW HOSPITAL UNIT AT ONCE Dedication of Out-Patient Building Is Delayed by Health Board. Although dedication ceremonies have been postponed indefinitely, dispensary service, 100 beds and the research laboratory of the new city hospital out-patient building will be put into use Thursday. Simultaneously with news of the postponement today came the announcement that a $42,000 donation to the hospital made anonymously a year ago was the gift of Edwin L. Patrick, president of C. B. Cones Manufacturing Company. Need for the services supplied by the new structure led the health board to open it this week, while agreement of board members that donors and other persons interested in the city hospital expansion program should attend the dedication caused its postponement. Patrick is ill, and Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan still is semi-convalescent from injuries sustained in an airplane mishap at South Bend last fall. Financial depression has placed more persons than ever on the case df the city, and city hospital has been filled to capacity all winter, said Dr. Frederick E. Jackson, health president, citing need for immediate use of the out-patient building. The building houses admitting rooms, embalming and autopsy auditoriums, a signal system for physicians and nurses, a morgue, be-

State Regulation of Indiana Utilities Protects Customers and Investors L NDER the system of state regulation in effect in Indiana both the customers of public utility companies and the investors in utility securities are benefited. A public utility company must obtain authority from the Public Service Commission of Indiana before it can issue and sell securities. To secure this authorization the company must submit a statement showing in detail what the money to be derived from the sale of securities is to be used for. This statement and the actual work of construction is subject at all times to check by the commission's staff of engineers. Regulation in this way prevents over-capitalization of an operating company and prevents abuses that might result from what is generally termed “watered stock”. The question is sometimes raised as to how inflation in the capital account of a company can be prevented if public utility bonds are allowed to be sold at a discount, that is, for a sum less than their face value. The answer is that the amount of discount is amortized over the life of the bond. In this way the annual charge set aside out of the earnings each year to equalize the discount is included in the cost of hiring borrowed capital. In most instances a company can make a substantial saving in the total cost of borrowed capital by selling its bonds at a discount with lower interest requirements rather than by insisting on an amount equivalent to the par value of the bond at a necessarily much higher rate of interest. Issuance of securities has nothing to do with the rates charged for service to customers. Rates for service are based on a reasonable return on a fair valuation of the property. Rates must be sufficient, however, to provide enough net earnings to attract the necessary new capital needed by the utility company for expansion in facilities to meet the demands for service. A utility company has no otaer source of revenue except what it receives from its customers for the service it renders them. All operating expenses,. untenance, taxes, and interest on funded debt must be paid out of the money received from this source. And a balance should be available to provide for renewals of plant equipment and to pay dividends # to stockholders, who are also entitled to a fair return upon their investment. Every demand by the public for service which will not sup* port itself and every unjustifiable attack upon a public utility which results in increased expense means that the public, which is the utility’s sole source of revenue, must pay these expenses indirectly. * {This is the fourth of a series of advertisements discussing ] the economics of the public utility business and reviewing j how the public is benefited by holding company controL Midland United Company PRINCIPAL OPERATING SUBSIDIARIESs Northern Indiana Public Service Company...
