Cheaper Rates Would Not Make Electricity King in
 the American Home

Washington. Aug 6-(UP)-u. S. Chamber O. Commerce today threw cold wcter on the theory that cheap power rates would au- tomatically make electricity the maid-of -all-work in the American home.
 The experssion of the chamber, spokesman for business, came sig nificantly at time when the pow CT question had been thrust for ward by President Roosevelt's in- spection of the vast government power projects in the Pacific north west.
 Even with substantial reduc- tions in equipment cost and energy cost" says the report, ''it is ques- tionable whether the economic sta : tus of the potential electrified home customers is such that the growth of home electrification can be greatly accelerated. unless forced by some artificial stimulus such as government subsidy.
 General electrification of our homes would require an investment of Is or 20 billions of dollars for appliances alone, not including aii conditioning"
 The report pointed out that cleo tricity must compete against other services, such as gas and coal.
 The Chamber pointed out that rates have been substantially re- duced and that despite this, in- crease in consumption has been slow
