a growing city requires. It cannot retire from business after its pile baa been made during a prosperous senson. No, the work of a public utility ia never done. When the skies have stopped smiling, when dark and distressing days of financial depression take possession of the land, the utility in the parlance of the street "must continue to saw wood." It is a servant of the public that must work every day. rain or shine. It is an indispensable part of municipal operation without which the modern municipality would quickly wither and die . Hence, aside from moral obligation, it is to the enlightened self interest of the public to see that the public utilities are kept prosperous, sustained up to the very hilt in the way of public support and credits, for without good credit they cannot extend their facilities as the municipal corporation grows, nor can they be most efficient if they lack the best machinery and equipment.

and the prospective investor naturally seeks that investment which strikes him as most safe, as most certain to meet the Interest payments. An harassed public utility, one that must forever and ever face a nagging and niggardly public control, does not offer an attractive inducement to the prospective investor. The utility is not greatly different from a community in one iespect, each must attract investors in the general, competitive field if either is to enjoy any access of new capital. A small minded community drives away possible capital Investments. A utility under the control

TUSLIC UTILITIESUnder the caption of "Flay square With Your Utilities," "The Union." the labor publication cf Indianapolis utters the following: , "It has been learned In recent years by public

utiJities that the more people know about the affairs i of such a small minded community naturally reflects

of the gas company, electric light, telephone or water the same discouraging atmosphere- Possible investors company, the less likely that company is to suffer I are driven away. Yes the investing public must be from unjust attack. This is due entirely to the well shown. The United States government seeking loans

understood American sense of fair play. During thisifcr war purposes and aided by the strong appeal of

period of post war reorganization tho need of a larger understanding, cf a more sympathetic relationship between the utilities and the public, is strongly emphasized.

"It Is certainly true that the correct and eventual solution of utility problems must rest upon public opinion, but before a healthy public opinion can be formed, the public must be given something cf an understanding of the relation of the public utility to the (state and the public. Some of the fundamental economic conditions underlying this relationship, as differentiating the relationship from privately controlled enterprise, must be made clear. Let it be understood. "(1). A public utility enjoys a peculiar relationship to public interest in that its operations affect the entire pu' lie. Therefore it has been set apart in a legal and business class by itself and legally cannot do as it pleases. Its accounts are publicly supervised, its profits limited, its every act Is regulated. "(2). Unlike ordinary business, the utility cannot make all the money that foresight, ingenuity or good fortune may render possible in private enterprise. No public utility can make 100 or 00 per cent profit as was done by many privately operated enterprises during the war, yet at the same time the courts will protect It against confiscatory rates until a fair trial is bad though it may lose money during the period when the facta are being established. "(3).' When prosperous, the public utility cannot sit back satisfied with the amount of business it is doing. It must provide fcr all the now service that

patriotic obligation, was ruiuicucu iu iniirooc of return and add additional features of attractiveness tor the flotation of each of the successive issues of war bonds. Investment funds come from everywhere and everybody. The Pennsylvania railroads have more than 137.000 Investors; the American Telephone and Telegraph Company has more than 160,000; the Amreican Sugar Refining Company more than 23,000. "The public utilities of the United States are owned by the people, not by Wall Street or bankers- The utilities could never have come into being without the aid of the small investor. "Is it not clear then that the prosperity of the local community is inseparably bound up with the prosperity of the local utility. All things being even, the home utility should have the strong abiding eupport of the people of the community. Since the utility is an essential part of the community it should, under ordinary conditions, constitute a safe source of investment. Surely if the citizen lias money to spare let him invest his money at home where it is under his own eye. The Union has no better advice than this to give "

Enough has been revealed in the Inquiry by a congress committtee into the Ku Klux to show that the organization is a good thing financially for those running it-

The mayor of a German town has decreed that women must not gossip exception Sundays. His ears will burn that day.
