WHY NOT BE FAIR?

A community which is not served with
some form Of public utility service such
as light, power telephone, gas, strceC
railway, water, etc., is almost unknown III
the U. S. AS matter of fact the small
lest towns usually have all these conven-
fences and isolated farms can have most
Of them.
Ii the average town or city did not
have these utility companies there would
be great effort made to interest capital
in entering the field to establish the SER
vice. ;xss$s
But with established companies the
story is different. They are made the
target for every form of political attack
and brave indeed is the newspaper or
public official who dare raise voice in
their behalf.
The whole proposition is simple if it
is considered on its merits. All the util-
ity companies ask is a right to conduct
their business on profitable basis which
will enable them to make extensions and
improvements to meet needs of public
and pay return to investors
If you are in the publishing business,
the grocery business. the clothing bust
ness or the shoe business, you are at lib
erty to increase the selling price Of your
goods as the price to you advances. The
average store keeper is making double
what he did five years ago on each sale
a pair Of shoes that used to sell for SIS
now sells for $40 and 20 per cent profit
on the sale is So or double what it was
on the old So price. The shoe dealers ov-
erhead has probably increased enough to
eat up this extra dollar profit
The utility company has had to pay the
same proportionate increase for it's SUP
plies and labor as merchants have had to
do but it is not at liberty to increase the
selling price of it's commodity.
Every man in business and every lab
oring man knows the raise in price of his
goods or labor in the past five years. Ii
he stops to think at all he must know
that utility operating costs have raised
proportionately.
This being the case how can any hon.
set man object to propOrtlonate IN
crease in utility rates? 1t is only Just
for this industry.
Commercial clubs, newspapers and
public officials should be as much inter-
ested in keeping alive an existing utility
as they would be in getting new one. 1t
will pay to be fair with utilities.

of which are now tax free and increasing
