BORAH CALLS FOR
ECONOMIC meet

Washington, d. CA move to in
struct President Harding to call a
world economic conference in addition
to the proposed world disarmament
conference was made by Senator
Borah when he introduced an amend.
ment to the naval appropriations bill,
now before the senate.
The Borah amendment would take
the place of the house provision en-
couraging the president to call dis
armament meeting to take up things
left undone by the conference of No
vember, 1921.
The president would be encouraged
to call on "such governments as he
deems necessary to send representa-
tives to a conference which would be
charged with the duty Of considering
the economic problems of the world
with a view to restoration of trade
and the establishment of sound finan-
cial and business conditions" Borah's
amendment stated.
No mention is made of what coun.
tries should be invited or where the
conference might be held.
The Borah amendment also en-
bodies the provision of the appropria-
ton bill which specifies that the ex-
ecutive should call a new arms limi-
tation conference to take up the mat
ters of land, sea and aircraft arma.
ment with a view to reaching under
standings relative to limiting future
construction"

section of the west very materially
The Idaho commission in its study
has applied sound reasoning in tts
findings, the result of which will be
beneficial, not to the public alone.
but to the public utilities companies
as well.
The commission has said that the
public cannot be expected to pay per-
petual tribute for the mistakes OF
promoters and managers of public
utilities; nor upon enhanced organ
ization expenses; nor upon property
purchased for extensions not now
in use for the people.
Had the decision been otherwise
premium would have been placed
upon careless management and in
efficiency, which ultimately would
have worked to the positive harm
of the public utility companies. In
holding that the company can not
expect to earn a full return upon its
irrigation equipment the commission
holds it to it's contract with the peo-
pie and says in effect that promise
and contract made by utility COM
pany is to be kept and is as binding
upon it as it is upon the individual
rancher or ditch company. To have
held otherwise would have been
wrong indeed.
In handing down this decision the
Idaho commission has done the peo-
pie of Idaho and of Eastern Oregon
a real service, and the Idaho Pow
er company too. The theory of pub
lie regulation of public utilities is
given added strength and confidence
in public commissions is enhanced.
This victory for the public was
due to the united efforts of the peo-
pie of this section, and to the off
GERS of the Malheur County Farm
Bureau, the Owyhee Ditch company,
the Shoestring Ditch company and
the County Agent who aided and di
rected the bringing of all these to-
gether in the Southern Idaho Power
Users association. Without this
the results attained would
not have been secured.

THE CHRISTMAS GnET

The finest Christmas gift received
by the people of this section was
that from the Public Utilities Com
mission OF Idaho in the form of its
decision upon the valuation of the
properties of the Idaho Power upon
which the company may OF right ex-
pect to earn reasonable dividends.
Instead OF tho s22.O0O,o0O which
the company sought to have named
as the value of it's property the COM
mission determined the value OF
property In the beneficial use of the
public to be s11,500. 10000; and
further that on $500. 900 worth OF
property used for developing irri-
cation power, II could not expect TO
make a full earning.
The decision is noteworthy one.
II is perhaps somewhat revolution
ary in some respects and may be con
tested; but Il charts course for
public utility values
which may effect the future or this
