was little better than a morass.
The mistake was a natural one,
the investigators said, for from the

have appeared reasonably fiat.

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
New York Municipal
Power Threat Called
a Political Prank.
BY PAUL MALLON.

"HE merriest political prank of
the Christmas season was the
one invented by MesSrs.
i Roosevelt and La Guardia on
the New York public utility
boys.
At least it certainly was bright, and
probably was intended as prank,
when the two clever political prank
sters announced they were going to
build public light plant in New
York.
Unless the New Deal gnomes here
miss their guess, no bricks will be
laid for that plant. The p. w. A.
may allocate some money for 1t, but,
long before any of it is spent for
construction, the private utility COM
pany is supposed to give in and an
nounce a sharp reduction in rates.
In other words, Messrs. Roosevelt
and La Guardia are going to fill the
public's stocking with kilowatts and
gas, just to provide the Christmas
spirit.
