PROPAGANDA OF I UTILITIES PAID' FOR BY^PUBLIC Audit in Franklin Water Rate Case Shows Patron ‘Buys Own Poison.’ How utility patrons pay for their own “poison” in the form of antipublic ownership propaganda is disclosed vividly In public service commission testimony in the rate care involving the Insull-owned water plant at Franklin. Audit made by William C. Fits, commisison accountant, is on file today with Commissioner Frank Singleton, who is conducting the rate hearings. This audit discloses that dues to the National Electric Light Association and the American Gas Association were listed by the Interstate Public Service Company as “operating expense.” and prorated to the various local plants, including the one which provides water to Franklin citizens. Money for Propaganda Federal trade commission disclosures have shown that the National Electric Light Association was engaged in spreading utility propaganda through newspapers whose policy would be controlled, college professors who were willing to talk against public ownership, women’s clubs or any other institutions or organizations that could be won over. The Franklin case audit shows how the people pay for this. In addition to annual dues to the National Electric Light Association, monthly dues to the American Gas Association are listed in the operting costs tabulation. Memberships Included Then there follows such items as Chamber of Commerce memberships, both at Franklin and Indianapolis, donations to the Henry County Memorial hospital at Newcastle and the Indianapolis Civic theater, Rotary, Kiwanis and Lions Club luncheons, state Y. M. C. A. membership and subscriptions to the Franklin Star, Edinburg Courier and the Chicago Journal of Commerce. Each item is pro-rated as so much of the operating expense connected with supplying water at Franklin. Webb Gilbert, chief commission accountant, contended today that such deductions, if confined to the city where the service is rendered, I are legitimate. He shows a commission rule book of 1932 to prove it. I Airing Is Expected But Chairman John W. McCardlc of the commission disagreed and said “some of these items can not be deducted as legitimate operating expense.” He didn't declares which ones, however. Commissioner Singleton, who had the data prepared, is expected to deal with the matter when the Franklin rate order is issued. He ' declined to comment today. National Electric Light Association dues were listed at S4B; Amer- | ican Gas Association, $58.54 a j month; Franklin Chamber of Commerce, SSO; state Y. M. C. A., $25, and the Purdue gas engineering fund, $155.75. DR. MACKINTOSH BURIED Funeral Services Held for Former Wabash President. By United.
