FLAYS UTILITIES
FOR HIGH RATES
IN RURAL AREAS
Gray Declares Excessive
Costs Keep HooSiers
Cropping in Dark.

Times Specidl
WASHINGTON, April 15.-High
rates of private power companies
have kept the farmers of Indiana
cropping in the mud and darkness, /"
Rep. Finly H. Gray charged in a
speech in the House.
He sought to make provision for
county district organizations to
supply public power as part of the
Rural Identification bill. The
measure providing S410,OOOO00 to be
made available to private companies
and co-operatives for rural electric
lines, is now in committee. having
passed both houses with amend
ments.
Mr. Gray contended that making
the lines available will not solve
the problem unless cheaper power
rates enSue.
IVA rates applied to present cleo
trio consumption in Indiana would
affect saving to the rate-payers of
SIG, 1874, 900 year, he said.
Lower Rates Essential
Without low and reasonable
charges for service, any program to
bring electricity to farmers will
prove vain and fruitleSs gesture,
humiliation, disappointment and
failure" Mr.. Gray declared.
1T has been high and excessive
charges which have denied electric
ity to the farmers
THAT is the reason why of the
2OO,835 farms in Indiana, only 49,
476 enjoy the use of electricity and
why 1889 farmers in Indiana are
still cropping in the mud and dark
ness, without electricity for light,
heat or power"
Rep. Gray cited instances of pub
lie ownership in Indiana which he
said show the way to lower rates.
Cites Comparative Costs
"The lower rates under public or
cooperative ownership is shown and
Illustrated in Indiana by the differ
ent rates or charges between Wash
ington's municipality owned plant
and the privately owned plant at
Madison.
I'm washington the charge for Is
kilowatt-hours is $3.50, while at
Madison it is $1O.25 for the same Is
kilowatt- hours, or 83 per cent higher
from the privately owned plant.
1.-The Frankfort municipality owned
plant sells Is kilowatt-hours for
$1.25 while the Lakeport privately
owned plant sells the same amount
for $2.12, or SO per cent higher than
the municipality owned plant.
THE Charlottesville municipality
owned plant sells Is kilowatt- hours
for 500, while the private plant at
Huntington sells it for $10.80 or II
per cent higher than the public
plant"
Blames High Executive Salaries
Commenting on the overcharge
for present consumption in Indiana,
as compared with IVA rates, the
Hoosier Congressman continued:
This $19,000000 is being collected
from the people of the state of In
diana to pay high salaries of pres
idents and other head officials of
the private electrical companies
doing business in the state and for
dividends to stockholders of many
private electric holding companies
for one and the same service rem
dered the people.
The local and operating COM
panles furnishing or providing the
people with electricity are being
compelled by the foreign, overhead
companies to collect this amount for
salaries and dividends in the form
of increased charges and are power
less to safeguard their consumers
against the high and extortionate
charges resulting"
