INCOME ACCOUNTS

The last story was about Capital
Accounts. This one is about Income
Accounts.
Capital Is the value Of a stock Of
wealth at point Of time.
Income Ii the value Of q flow Of
services through period Of time.
A service rendered by any person
or thing is any desirable change ef-
fected by that person or thing. For
instance, a plow performs service
to the farmer by turning thl soil.
Service are Of two classes: Serv-
ices rendered BY wealth (external
to many and services rendered by
human beings. Most services are
rendered jointly BY both wealth and
human beings.
She income Of the idle rich largely
comes from selling the services Of
wealth. IN England, for instance. II
often comes from stocks and bonds of,

DEMOCRACY
IN INDUSTRY REVEALED

SCHENECTADY, N. Y, June TO-
EmplOye representation in manage
ment Is often herelded as an applica-
ton Of democracy to industry.
The General Electric Company's
works council Is frequently featured
as an outstanding example Of this
democracy"
The company's welfare work in-
cludes s pension system, bonus sys-
tenn (euphemistically called q "sup-
Elementary compensation plan"), va
cations, stock ownership, etc.
But the alleged democracy Of the
company's scheme apparently does
not include the right of employees
- determine the conditions for eli
gibility for the various benefits.
This Is Indicated in a notice in the
current issue Of the Schenectady
Work News, the official organ Of the
company's Schenectady plant.
The notice lays down certain rules
to be observed in determining the eli
gibility Of employees to participate in
the various schemes mentioned above.
The notice is signed by NJ. F. West
over, secretary Of the General Elec-
trie Company and a member of the
board Of directors.
The Representatives Of the workers
council appear to have nothing to say
about the rules, although they vitality
affect every employe.

Report Gives Figures
Renewed proof Of this Is found in
the annual report covering the ac-
tivities .of the electric plant which
was filed with the city council last
Saturday. The report Is based on an
audit made under the direction Of
the city recorder and submitted BY
him to the council for formal ap-
proval.
This report testifies to Is years Of
practically continuous success for the
electric power plant. Beginning with
an original investment Of S215, 900
and lon9-term Indebtedness, the
present assets amount to approxi-
mately $1,500 600.
Eugene consumers at the same time
have enjoyed lower rates than either
Albany Or Salem which are served
by privately owned companies.
Last year the net income Of the
electrical depaftment amounted to
$174,520 "a. This figure represents
an increase over the previous year.
In fact, each year shows substantial
gains and greater value IN the plant.
Municipal Rates Lowest
Ashland. Ore, is another example
Of successful city electric plant.
Rates ct Ashland are even lower
thant at Eugene. A comparative
table shows that an electric light bill
amounting to $827.7s in Albany
would cost only $81.a2 in Ashland
and $112.20 in Eugene.
At Salem, a total electric bill Of
s1162.50, paid by the Marion hotel,
would under the Ashland rate cost
$609.16, and under the Eugepe rate

a unanimous decision Of the Wynooche

In the Council Chambers Of the City

ing motion prevailed to invite the
Home Owners Association to defend
such statements on the platform in a
debate.

idea that the tax payers burdens

ity bonds for the construction Of the

Difference IN Bonds
In explaining the difference between
bonds, Mr.. Cross said:
"There are two kinds Of bonds that
can be issued for the construction OF
any municipal enterprise. Ono is that
kaewn as general obligation bonds,
and the other is by what is known as
public utility bonds.
''Phe cost Of the Wishlkah bridge, the
repairs to the Chehalis river bridge,
for the city ja'l and for . part of the
cost Of the simpanp sgsnne paving, are
BY general obliRatipn bonds, payable
only by taxation. These improvements
are what Is known aa dead invest
ments, making no direct returns which
can be used toward their liquidation
and payment Of the bonds issned Tor
their construction. Il becomes necess-
airy in such instances to issue general
obligation bonds.
eve do not question the need Of
these improvements, or the judgment
of the voters in voting the bonds TO
construct them,. but we cite them as
examples of improvements requiring
the issuanee Of general obligation
bonds to construct them. Any i'm
provements that cannot carry their
own load in the form of revenue must
be made by the issuance and sale Of
general obligation bonds.
