CONTROL BY COMMISSION
PLAN GROWS IN FAVOR
Method of Watching Public Service
!. Corporations Is in Force in
New York and Wis
consln

There has been much recent discussion
of the new public service commissions
law of New York and of the new public
utility law of Wisconsin. Municipal En-
gineering magazine shows that the prin-
ciples on which these laws are based
have been applied In, Massachusetts to
the gas and electric light plants for some
twenty-four years and very successfully
in most respects.
Not only this, but the New York law
Is almost entirely combination of the
former state railroad commission law,
which is a. growth of seventeen years.
a gas and electric light commission law,
which has been in operation two or
three years and laws regulating meter
inspections and New York city rapid
transit SO that the new public service
commissions are simply continuing the
work of former bodies under better con-
ditions and concentrated in two offices
serving the metropolitan districts and
the state at large. These commissions
should therefore be able to administer
their trusts with better success than their
predecessors.
The Wisconsin law serves mainly to
extend to nearly all public utilities the
same control which the Wisconsin state
railroads for a number of years and lays
out In detail the methods of procedure,
based on the experience of the railroad
commission
Municipal Engineering sums up by say
ing that the tendency to increase the
powers of public utility commissions and
to extend their fields Is becoming quite
pronounced and the states in which this
expansion has occurred have had similar
laws in operation for some years, so
that they have considerable experience
on which to base the provisions of the
acts. Their work has passed the ex-
perimental stage, at least in large part.
and it only remains to apply to the large
fields the methods and forms OF pro-
cedure already well developed.
1t is probable that the publicity given
to the work done In these states through
the general discussion of the new forms
and applications of the laws, especially
in New York and Wisconsin, will result
in the extension to other states of the
efforts to put public utilities under the
control of representatives Of the people.

The story OF the Brownsberger home
school is familiar to the greater part of
the people of this state, who have reason
to be interested in business colleges.
The peculiar fact that 1t is the largest
commercial college in Southern Califor-
mia, and, with one exception, the largest
in the entire state, although 1t is prob
ably one of the youngest, has attracted
widespread attention, and has caused a
great deal of investigation. with the re-
suit that il has also become the most
widely known of any business college
in the west.
1t makes no statement to the public,
either in it's catalogue or other printed
notice, that is not absolutely true.
With the exception of the Polytechnic
Business college of Oakland, It has the
largest working equipment Of any college
in California. Its 100 typewriters were
new this summer, having been put In in
exchange for 100 that have been used
from three to eight years. These type
writer's are the best and most popular
makes In the market. The typewriting
department is also equipped with adding
machines, billing machines. tabulators,
multograph, mimeograph. rotary neo-
style, filing cabinet, card index system,
letter press, etc. for the daily use \oi
