SauS1ge.

With the coming of cold weather,
pork may be introduced into the diet.
While this delicious meat is more dill
ficult than beef to digest. moderate
use of it can do no harm 10 the ordi-
narily healthy person.
If pork is well done and accom-
panied by the proper dishes there is
no reason why chops and roasts and
sausage should not appear on most
dinner or luncheon tables once a
week.
The amount of fat in other foods
served in a meal with pork should be
decreased. Sausage is almost one
third fat pork, so choose vegetables
lacking in fat Let the salad be Il
simple green or fruit salad with
French dressing and the dessert Gus
tard or rice or fruit tapioca.
These recipes for sausage may be
newS TO you. They provide n meat
| course lacking in protein but rich in
fat, SO supply the deficiency in the
dessert.

Building Advisable

l believe it is conclusively shown by
these figures that the advisable thing
to do is to proceed with the building
of the plant, and even though it would
not show such a result, when you stop
to consider the investment we have in
the municipal plant and the effect a
contract with our competitors, The
Hamilton Service Co., would have up
on our assets at the end of seven
years; the effect such a contract
would have on the rates, the
result of the lack of competition, then
think you can readily see it is
necessary to proceed with the plant.
In one of the conferences Mr.. Monroe
admitted under examination, and Mr.
Marshall did also before this commit
tee, that the only reason they charge
Z cents to the domestic consumers in
Hamilton and not 10 cents, as they
charge in Middletown, and II cents,
as they charge your neighbors just
out of corporate limits of the city of
Hamilton, was because of the fact
there was competition here in the city
of Hamilton; because the city did
have plant and was competing with
them and they had to meet our rate.
Otherwise the charge would be at
least 10 cents.

we will consider the past experience
and performance of the plant We
have been operating the plant since
1894 These figures show, and they
are prepared from our records, that
the net profit derived from the op-
GRAFTON Of the plant since 1904 was
1897, 1925, Notwithstanding that, it
was stated we lost money when we
actually earned it, The electric light
plant did not cost the taxpayers one
single cent, produced a net profit,
took care of its own obligations, sink
ing fund requirements and interest
charges. 1t has furnished i'm addition
to that, without cost to taxpayers,
street lighting, for which no tax levy
has been made, and which would have
cost the city Of Hamilton, paying for
street lighting at same rate as the
city Of Middletown pays the Hamil-
ton Service Co. for street lighting,
SAL ,155,00 So it seems to me on
the figures Of past performances of
the plant it has earned better than
a million dollars for the taxpayers
when you take into consideration the
saving ON rates made possible by the
competition, and these are actual fig
ures taken from the records
An appraisal OF the present dis
tribution system, and not taking into

tions is $414.000.o4, that is of De-
cember 81, 1921, date Of completion
of appraisal and audit. And the same
date the total bonded Indebtedness
of the electric plant was only S283,-
100000 Notwithstanding statements
that have been made in the public
press to the contrary that we have
an indebtedness of two million or
four million dollars, or some wild
guess. We want to say now, to deny
statements that have been made i'm
the press, that this win add additional
tax burden on the already over-taX
burdened city; that the gentlemen who
make such statements understand
nothing about municipal affairs, of
operation of municipal plants or the
law relating to taxes or they are
making intentiona ! misstatements
The ordinance provides and the law
provides that the sinking fund re-
quirements on the plant bonds be
paid from the earninge Of the plant
You do not levy on taxpayers for it.
There has been no levy for electric
light plant; it has never been done in
the city Of Hamilton But ! will say,
should we build that plant and it is
entirely junked and returns no rev
enue, in other words if it were on the
same basis as the North Third street
bridge, then it would cost the tax
payers, but provision is made in year
ly cost to take care of bonds, inter
est, sinking fund and depreciation,
etc, against the plant.

The Savings

An analysis of these figures which
are absolutely based upon facts and
records, and not based upon assump-
ton, show that the cost of generating
current with the proposed plant, in
clude operation, maintenance, depre
citation, etc, so that the entire plant
would be amortized in a period of
fifteen years, so that we could junk
it all at the end of that time with
cut costing the taxpayers a single
cent; that the cost of generating cur
rent in such plant would be $780,
314.58. The cost of current purchas-
ed from the Hamilton Service Co.
during like period would be $685.
23437 The yearly difference in ia
vor of building the plant is $16,919.79.
Over a period of ten years would be
$169, 1877 90-ten years is the life of
the contract. That is the difference
in saving between the purchasing of
current and the building and operat-
ing of the plant in favor of the
building of plant.
Now, on examination of these re-
ports and the situation here dis
closes that our water works and cleo
trio light plants are so closely relat-
ed in their operation that to aban-
don tha alactric lioht nlant the addi-
tional expense that would be added on
the water works plant by reason Of
additional fuel, labor, maintenance
necessary, would far exceed any bene-
fit that would be derived from pur-
chasing of current even though il
could be purchased for less than il
can be generated.

Mandate of People

This was and is the mandate of the
people to their officials; the people
in their action became the legisla-
tive authority of the city, they were
the ones that said to the city Off
cials that their wish was to proceed
with the building of this plant. In
all of my dealings in this matter, in
dealings with the public and my fell
bowman, | want to be consistent. You
will recall that few years ago a
bond issue was voted by the people
of the city of Hamilton for the ex-
tension of North Third street and
the building of bridge north of the
city.
Both the Republican-News and the
Journal, and all of those who are
apparently opposed to the building of
the plant, said it is our duty to build
that bridge because it is the man
date of the people, because the peo-
pie said we want you to issue the
bonds and build the bridge and ex-
tend Third street. And mind you a
bridge does not return cent on the
investment as does a power plant,
nor does its earnings, pay the interest
on the bonds or pay the principal
thereof. The entire cost, interest and
principal is paid by the taxpayer, for
it has no earnings. The days of toll
bridge have long since disappeared
A bridge has no earnings.
| personally am in favor of build
ing the bridge because the people
said that it was what they desired
and expressed themselves so at the
election. The people in the city Of

which he admitted, he was not going
to give club to hang over his head.
We sold the bonds and were then
able to proceed.
Many Proposals
Immediately after the election the
Union Gas and Electric Co., of Gin
cinnati, submitted proposal to sell
electric current to the city of Ham
ilton. The Ohio Gas and Electric Co.
also submitted proposition and the
Hamilton Service Co submitted pro-
posal. Mr.. Tate and Hutchins, of
the Dayton Power and Light Co.. said
they would like to sell US current.
SO we entered into negotiation with
all of them apparently, and only ap-
parently they were entering into com
petition because they were interested
in seeing that the people of the city
of Hamilton were served properly.
The result of the negotiations was
'hAo, CiiSy odiillICSd " me III lIie pres
ence of others, Mr. Northway, secre-
tary of the Chamber of Commerce:
Mr. Rensselaer, of Hooven-Owens-
Rentschler, and others on the citizens
advisory committe, that they were in
mutual understanding, that there was
constructive collusion, if not active
collusion, in the submission of these
proposals to the city of Hamilton,
and when in a position to call the
turn they made this admission and
the Dayton Power and Light Co. was
no longer interested if the Hamilton
Service Co had a proposal The
Union Gas and Electric Co. said we
cannot enter into competition with
them and that the proposals were not
in good faith; in other words that
they were only holding the umbrella
over Monroe's, the Hamilton Service
Company's head That has been the
result Of the negotiation, and yet
there are those in the city of Hamil-
ton who believe that contract made
with such company is one which
could be respected
Gentlemen, have no respect for
anyone who does not deal fairly and
open and above board when / am in
that manner dealing with them. |
have no respect for a written con
tract signed by a man in whom
have no confidence. The writing of a
contract is only for the purpose of
setting forth terms of contract, and
unless you have confidence and can
have confidence in the obligators of
the contract, you had better not have
contract. But notwithstanding all of
that, we proceeded to analyze the
propositions that were made, to de-
termine which was the best thing for
the people of the city Of Hamilton.
1t left for consideration two propo-
sitions Mr. Monroe's, our competi-
tors, and the building Of the plant
as reported and recommended to US
by Froehlich & Emery, engineers.

Engineers Report

| want to say at this time, state
ments to contrary Notwithstanding
by Mr. Monroe and Mr.. Marshall,
that the Union Gas and Electric, the
Ohio Gas and Electric Co have all had
the report of the Froehlich & Emery
Engineering Co. in their hands, have
analyzed and examined it, and have
not offered one word of criticism
about their conclusions or the facts
which they set up, and to the contrary,
Notwithstanding denial of Mr., Mon
roe, the Froehlich & Emery Engr.
Co. received a letter from Mr. Monroe
in which he said he had examined
the report and found it very fair,
impartial, efficient and competent re-
port on the situation
SO | say that left for our consider
alton two propositions.
Mr. Monroes proposition provided
originally a one year contract for the
city of Hamilton on yearly demand
basis. This is getting into technical
stuff which finally have learned to
understand and we had experts to
advise us on that. In the final con-
ference with Mr.. Monroe he changed
his proposition to ten year propo-
sition, he conceded a three year re-
newal stipulation in order to renew
the contract at the end of seven
years He made no change in rate,
for they can only sell on published
schedules or tariffs on file with the
public utilities commission of Ohio,
and agreement to the contrary would
be discriminatory and Illegal He
amended his proposition by offering
then year contract on a monthly
demand basis instead of yearly de-
mand.
He agreed to refrain from solicit
ing commercial or residential bust
ness in districts where the city OF
Hamilton had lines and the city was
to agree not to solicit business where
their company had lines Such pro-
| vision, anyone versed in law woulo
