Realty Association Hears l'taV
Light Officials on the
Question.
THEY SAY THAT CURRENT
Is CHEAP IN SALT LAKE
Assurance Given That Company
Will Assist in Securing
Factories.

Members OF the Salt Lake Real
Estate association listened to talks on
the question Of power by representa-.
tives of the Utah Light and Railway
company at the regular meeting of the
association held Wednesday afternoon
at the Commercial club
In recent meetings the real estate
men have considered the proposition of
the city establishing power plants in
the canyons owned by the city,
where there is water power sufficient
TO maintain electric power plants. 1t
was contended by members of the as
soclation that by this means prospec-
tive factories for Salt Lake could secure
cheaper power, and there would be an
increased tendency on the part of fac
tory owners TO locate in Salt Lake.
Commercial Agent Heard.
B. w. Mendenhal1, commercial agent
FOR the company, III a short talk told
the members that the production Of
power is more costly in this region than
In many other places where there is
more water power at hand. According
to his stand. power is being furnished
to factories now AT as low a price as
could be furnished should the city take
up the proposition Of establishing power
plants.
As to the cost Of power to manufac.
turing concerns. Mr.. Mendenhall said
that the majority OF the users of power
are small consumers, and that they are
on meters, paying for power as it is
used. BY figures submitted and with
the use of a diagram, Mr., Mendenhall
showed the relative cost Of the pro-
duction of power, and by table of
comparison showed that power is fur
nished as cheaply in Salt Lake as in
other cities
In the course of his remarks Mr..
Mendenhall said that the Real Estate
association could rest assured that the
power company will not see factories
leave Salt Lake because of an exces-
sive power rate. He said the matter of
the cost of power would be adjusted in
some way before factories should leave
the city TO seek other locations.
Assistant Manager Talks.
R. E. Hunt, assistant general man
ager of the company, also addressed the
meeting. He set out the plans of the
company in the way of improvements
and extensions under contemplation in
the next few years. In the last four
years, Mr.. Hunt said, the company
few years that much more will be
spent in bettering the service. He said
that many of the extensions of the lines
have been money losers for the com
pany, but no complaint has been offered,
as he says the company takes the stand
that the city is forwarded in develop
ment by the extension of street car
service in the directions of the trend
of growth
company want the cooperation of the
people in general IN the work of giving
the best possible service, and in case
any citizen has a grievance or anything
to take up with the company, the
officers are ready and willing TO give
him hearing.
The meeting was we'll attended Some
routine business was transacted by the
association while in session.
