SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1.-THE
question whether public utilities
should be assessed for taxation by
public service commissions occupied
some OF the attention OF the National
Conference on Taxation here today.
F. n. Fletcher, Of Reno, Nevada, a
former member Of the Nevada State
Tax Commission, sketched the devel-
opment Of the public utilities, abiding
to the startling efficiency now shown
as compared with the previous waste.
full individual effort" and said that
this efficiency was carrying with It
enormous profits to which the public
had paid little attention.
He dismissed the suggestion that
public utilities under strict regula.
ton, should not be taxed at all by
noting that in such case part OF the
public would be benefited at the OK.
pense of O larger part not served by
the utility and the loss in taxes would
have to be made up by other property
on a wholly unfair proportion. Tho
same reasoning he commended would
apply TO municipal ownership under
which a cheapening OF rates to a small
portion Of the community would give
them an unfair advantage over the
taxpayers generally. mo one Is in.
jured by keeping the tax on" he said,
"but always the many are injured for
the benefit OF the few by taking it of.
Assuming then that the public
utilities should be taxed, the question
arises as to the amount OF the tax
and whether the valuation should be
the same for tax as for rate purposes.
No difficulty arises In the trained
mind in ascribing q different value
for each purpose, as rates are largely
based on what is put into the property
