Compare these figures with

had increased our employees by such

upon costs.
with all these forces in action
our cost of operation would increase.
If we make rates to equal costs our
rates will rise-not fall. Unless, of
course the taxpayer pays the deficit"

we are going and consider the ca
pacity OF our vessel to carry the
cargo.
Neither our national nor our
State Governments are planned or
equipped for the task of Govern
ment operation Of utilities. Nobody
ever tried 1t on our stupendous scale
OF a continent. but there are Gov
ernments which. in their smaller
scope, do operate in some fashion
some OF their utilities. Since 1t is
always in worse fashion than ours,
their example is nc temptation to
imitation, but 1t does illustrate that
some Governments, ON some scale, in
some fashion, can operate some of
them.
But nom of them have ever at
tempted to operate all the utilities,
nor does any one of them possess
10 per cent Of our railway mileage,
or 6 e cent of our power, or is
per cent of our telephones, and so
on.
The very first and fundamental
difficulty that our form of govern
ment presents is the relation of the
States to- the Federal Government.
1t is an impossible conception that
we give the States the power to reg
ulate the business of the Federal
Government as they now regulate
these services. Or are we going to
divide the railways and power and
communications into forty-eight
systems, each ending at the bound
airy of its own State? Whichever
we do will crack the timbers of our
Government.
If we pile these $40, 900, 900, 900
of business and 2,70O,O 900 employees
upon the Government " par
ti%sanship, 'log-rolling' and politics
would be the inseparable accomp-
ailments of administration. We
shall CONVEX business into politics,
and surrender efficiency for spoils.
"Also these legislative bodies
would have to deal with group pres
sures striving for favors in rates.
The relative rates will affect the
prosperity of every city and every
section, every group and every in
dustry. Because the Government
had not the courage to- increase
railway rates during the war, the
taxpayer made up a $500, 900, 900
operation deficit. A neighboring
Government yielded last year to the
demand for lower rates on the Gov
eminent railways, it is paying the
deficit from taxes today.
by this vast venture that is pro-
posed to us we would at once in
crease the total OF national and To-
cal officeholders up to about 6,OOO,-
900. The rightful interests of this
group is in higher pay. constantly
better conditions Of service and bet
ter standards of living. The right
full public interest will be to hold
down rates and taxes. These in
terests will clash, and their clash
must fight itself out not OF grounds
of economic bargaining between la.
Dor and employer, but in the po'
litical arena.
OfYicchOlders Would Rule
The voting strength OF this mass
, 1924-10-09

Of officeholders. their wives and de-
pendents. will be over 25 per cent
Of the whole. 1t is the balance Of
political power between parties in
every district. Either every men,
Der of the legislative bodies will be
elected to do the bidding Of this
bureaucracy or will be elected by a
public in rebellion against it.
UNLESS the Federal or local Gov
ernments can give the public lower
rates, there is no use undertaking
the gamble.
III the Government is to reduce
rates, 1t must do so either by the
saving of private profits or by re-
ducing operating expenses or lump
ing them on the taxpayer. During
the last tour years the railways have
ON average earned less than 4 per
cent on the Interstate Commerce
Commission valuation. Even if his
value ere reduced by IS per cent,
they would have earned only 5 per
cent. Our electrical utilities are
regulated at earnings between 6 and
s per cen upon their invested cap
ital. The Government could mo-
borrow the hugh sums necessary at
less than 5 per cent.
"In a sale to the Government the
constitutional requirements would
for various legal reasons probably
result in a much larger sum than
the $40, 900, 900, 900 of present val
uations by commissions and others.
| am convinced that interest charges
alone to the Government would be
larger than the present utility pro-
fits, andnno economy lies there.
Rather the way of the prodigal.
Nor can the Government operate
as economically as private enter
prise. If we take owe nearly g.
900 900 new employees into public
service we must put them under an
alright civil service, to be hired
by a separate commission and pro-
noted by seniority, and at once we
have created a bureaucracy.
And at the top, where exception
al talent and genius must be had,
neither seniority, nor competitive
examination. nor politics will secure
or find it. 1t is one thing to choose
a postmaster. but another to choose
a railway president. These things
are the actual and daily experiences
of our public life, and if a hundred
years of this experience is not proof
that the efficiency of Government
operation must always be below the
efficiency of private enterprise, then
the public is incapable of convic-
ton.
