The Utilities Bonds.

The action, Of the public utilities COM
mission in rejecting the application Of the
Washington Utilities Company for au-
thority TO issue s1o.0O00OO in bonds justi-
fes the protests that were uttered by The
Star year ago when the merger plans
were under discussion and this paper
strongly urged the enactment of a public
utilities law to prevents such financing of
the local corporations as to lessen the
prospect Of INSTRUMENTATION the benefit Of
the public. There was. at that time no
established authority te,supervise the rs
cal operations of these companies. which
are of a semi-palblic character Through
their enjoyment of franchises granting
the use Of the streets. 1t would have
been possible in the conditions that then
existed to water the stock Of these COM
panies or of the holding company pro-
posed. to lay the foundation for fu-
ture arguments against compulsory I'm
provements or possible reductions Of fares
or the extension of the transfer system.
Now, through thes fortunate utilization of
the District appropriation bill. a public
utilities commission has been provided,
and that commission has refused to grant
the application of the newly formed cor
poration for q bond issue which In ITS
Judgment Is In excess Of present needs
and unwarrauted by circumstances In
all likelihood the corporations Will appeal
to the courts as the law permits. but
meanwhile 1t Is important to note the eff
cacy OF the utilities commission an a
means OF checking precipitate and DOS
sibly uIrw1se and. from the public point
OF view, injurious financing. Had this
commission been In existence a year ago
much difficulty would have been pre-
vented and pubic confidence In the good
faith OF the corporations which 1t was
sought to consolidate would not have been
shaken With It's present equipment the
District Is well safeg,mrded agains,

A little baby laughed one day;
I paused and wondered why.
None of the wealth could it display
For which the grown folk sigh.
Its wardrobe seemed exceeding slim.
No jewelry 1t wore.
It's home was up a side street dim,
Behind a dusty store.
It hadn't even teeth or hair.
It's hands were frail and small.
And yet 1t sat goo-gooing there,
AS IL Ii had them all. n

Rests not with pomp or pelf;
It comes not from what you possess,
But from your real self.
