Texas Government Oc-
cupy Houses

AUSTIN, July 1l.-(R-Appro-
priations bills providing for support
Of the state government during the
next two years held the spotlight
in both houses today as legislators
began their fourth day of active
work during the session.
The senate yesterday paired ST.
100000 from its departmental mea-
sur which originally contained
$12,600,O00 for support Of the 80
departments Of government.
Senator Tom Pollard, chairman
of the finance committee, declared
that while a sweeping cut was ac-
complished lawmakers would find
it imperative to put back almost
ST, 900 when free conference
committees of the senate and house
discuss differences on the two
bills.
The house moved slower in con-
sideration of its department appro-
priations, but managed to eliminate
an item Of $780, 900 for purchase of
land around the Alamo. The bill
stood at $11 SAT, 744 when the days
work was finished.
Representative George @. PurI of
Dallas prepared amendments which
would lop $4,000 in travelling ex-
penSes from the bill.

Valuation Decision
May be Boomerang.
DIR. JOHN BAUER

NEW YORK, July 11.-Private
ownership may get a jolt and gov
eminent ownership a boost as a
result Of the u. S. supreme court de-
ciSion in the OFallon easel
BY a queer shaping Of events, the
OFallon decision, fought for vigor-
ously by the privately owned public
utility interests. may prove a BOOM
erang, and swooping back, may ac-
tually hasten the day of utilities
owned and operated by the govern
ment.
This Is the view of DR.. John
Bauer, director of the American
Utilities bureau and public utilities
editor of the National Municipal
Review.
The famous decision of a few
weeks ago, holding that the law
requires consideration of reproduc-
ton costs as an element of value
In railroad valuations, upset the eS-
tablished policy Of the Interstate
Commerce commission and threw
the whole problem of rate-making
into confusion.
OT. view
eff government regulation of pri-
vately owned public utilities be-
comes an acknowledged failure, as
seems likely in the light of the
recent decision" On. Bauer declares
there is only one course left-gov-
eminent ownership.
The success of the utilities be-
fore the courts in preventing the
establishment of effective regula-
ton will hardly serve the ultimate
interests Of private ownership anc
operation" he warns.
The significance of the decision
lies not alone in its effect upon the
policy of the Interstate Commerce
commission, DR.. Bauer points out
but in its simultaneous upheaval OF
existing tendencies in state regula-
ton of utilities.
There has been a growing feeling
that regulation must be reconstruct
ed placed upon a definite basis fol-
effective administration and the
maintenance of necessary financial
stability" DR.. Bauer says.
State Regulation Doubtful
THE program that has been pro-
posed and has received extensive
favor would virtually apply to tbs
utilities in general the policy adopt
ed by the Interstate Commerce com
mission in the O'Fallon case.
The O'Fallon decision now raises
the question whether. indeed. such
2 policy expressly established by the
legislatures Of the states would re-
ceive judicial approval.
II have felt that it would be DOS
sible for state legislatures to put
regulation upon a workable basis
and still believe that such positive
