SAYS INDIANA PUBLIC
SERVICE BODY COSTS
4 ONLY $4,000 YEARLY
tBy Associated Press)

+, INDIANAPOLIS, April 14.-Mair-
tenance of the public service. commits,
sion costs the state OF Indiana an
average of less than sS5, 900 year.
according to an estimate. made today
by John McCardle. chairman of the
commission, on figures for the last
six fiscal years. Mr.. McCardle made
public a statement calling auentior
to an alleged error contained in
charges made by what he termed
''so-called self-government bureau,
which he charged has been sending
to candidates for public offices through
the state demands for the abolishment
Of the commission.
This stateemnt Is not intended as
an answer to such demand said Mr..
McCardle. ANY possible action look
ing toward the abolishment of the pub
lie service commission, which in my
opinion would be a mistake, should be
based on the merits of the case. In
the interest of fairness, however, ]
Think the facts should be set forth.
1t Is charged that the state has appro-
priated $150,000 year to maintain the
public service commission. This is roa
true.
" Cites Annual Costs.
:, For the fiscal years Of 1915 and
1917, the annual appropriation was
$4,000. For the fiscal years 1915
and 1919, 1t was 100000, and for the
fiscal years 1920 and 1921, the yearly
appropriation of 100000. This makes
total of $652,000 in six years.
y "On the other hand, the public ser
vice commission law requires the util-
sty companies to pay fees to the COM
mission covering the expense of aud
its and valuations. In six years the
fees have amounted to $324,1S2.38.
The expenses of the commission IN
six years have amounted to $7S7 ,971.51.
;. Because of the fees paid by the ut'l-
ity companies, the commission usually
turns back to the state an unused bal
ance. In six years the money SO turn
ed back has amounted to $146,46S.2l.
This means that instead of the public
Service commission costing the state
S150,000 year, operation Of the public
service commission has cost on the
average sS4,25229."

WASHINGTON. March 1.-The Amer

At the request OF conserss, the leg
ion worked out from a great number

feels that by such constructive feat
ures as those which emhody farm and

add to returned service mans
ability TO become more constructive
citizen. The legion still feels that way

employment or III fortune, would not

desirable compensation compared 70

The cost to the government has been

The legion feels this 70 be just
obligation The Offering OF q man

.,ion with the services Of contractors
,,,anufacturers. railroads and shipping
s~+aras+s These obligations have

7i~ation 70 the veteran sti1 remains
and will remain until some adjustment

question has been put to the people

In asking for the passage Of THIS
hesitation. the American legion feels
that it is only urging the fuifilment Of
rrorises literally made. but hesltat-

I, Il safe to say that further de-

American legion. The proposition Of
adjusted compensation came from con
eress The American legion feels that
FOR the goods of all concerned it could
be carried out.
