City-Owned Utility, Glossbrenner Says.

BY FREDERICK G. MATSON

Complete approval of policies of the directors of the City Utilities District in their management of the ‘municipally owned Citizens Gas and Coke Utility was voiced today A. M. Glossbrenner, a Utilities District trustee. It was the first statement for publication by a trustee since the natural gas controversy has aroused public interest in the last few months. . . “Economies in management”

nine months of actual operation of the utility, the ' directors ¥nd Thomas Kemp, general manager, had turned a failing business into a profitable organization.

- Now Out of Red

“A losing enterprise has been converted into a profit-making con- . cern,” he said. “It is now out of the | red. and has enabled the manage- | ment to declare a 5-cent rate cut to Indianapolis gas consumers. “That, in my opinion, is efficient management:” he declared. At the same time, Mr. Glossbren- | ner said it was his understanding that the directors do not intend to} take up the question of bringing |

natural gas into Indianapolis until |

they have had at least a full year in charge of actual operation of the gas plant. The utility was taken over. by the city Sept. 9, 1935. but it was not

until the first of this year that the |

directors: began- operating the plant under revised management and personnel, he pointed out. “The natural gas problem is very serious one,” Mr, Glossbrenner asserted, “Costs must be considerad, as well as the possibility of the supply giving out.’

“The Citizens Gas and Coke Util- |

ity a concern. It is now making more metallurgical coke—the type that is | used in the iron and steel indus- | tries—than the regular coke for do- | mestic .consumption.”

Coke Income Raised

Mr. Glossbrenner explained metallurgical sells at about $2 a ton more than the common coke, and that this was one of the factors in| increased revenue as announced by the utility in its last quarterly re- | port. Furthermore. Mr. .Glossbrenner questioned the advisability of abandoning the coke oven plants for na- | tural gas.’ He said it would put ap- | | proximately 300 of the 400 gas| plant employes out of work, ‘and | would result in money for natural | gas going ‘to. an outside organiza- | tion. : “It would mean-the loss of an im- | portant local manufacturing industry.” he declared. The Utilities District” directors | are working for the best intggests | of the citizens, and they hav e a good job, Mr. Glossbrenner | claimed. : “It has been said that they are conducting the affairs of the mu- | nicipally owned “utility as if it were | a private business. That, in-my | opinion, is the best compliment that | they could receive.’ | _By that, Mr. Glossbrenner explained, he meant that the utility is receiving due diligence in its opera- | tions, and that the directors have | as their goal the highest possible | efficiency in management. “I_am back of the directors 100 | per cent, and although I am speak- | ing for myself individually, I believe the other trustees will agree with me.
