Power Pool Problems

The experts are working on the
complicated plans for the proposed
Tennessee Valley power pool. under
which the Tennessee Valley Author
ity and the private utilities in the
area would cooperate in serving the
Valley, in order to eliminate waste
and duplication of effort.
In the meantime, newspapers and
publicists continue to discuss the
pros and cons of the pool plan and
an interesting fact is that almost all
of them seem to believe that con-
siderable change in the TVA set-up
is necessary If the pool is to be sue
cessful, fair to the government, and
fair to private utilities representing
hundreds of millions of dollars Of
the peoples invested savings.
II is pointed out, for example,
that iva, being free from state reg-
ulatiOn, is not required to maintain
standard bookkeeping methods. and
that it can charge off money actual
ly spent for power development. to
navigation and other purposes
thus artificially minimizing its real
total investment in power facilities.
Furthermore, the best estimates
say that, If all operating costs are
considered along with the taxes
that a private utility doing the vol
ume of business that iva does,
would pa.y, iva now actually loses
~ cents per kilowatt hour sold.
This deficit is paid out Of the pub
lie treasury, by all the people.
II is also pointed out that the so
called iva yardstick is misleading.
Il Is certainly impossible TO fairly
gauge the rates of a heavily taxed,
government-regulated private enter
prise, by those of a government
tax-free, unregulated |
public enterprise.
Thus, the first step in creating a
and equitable power pool |
must be to correct whatever unfair
iva holds over private
utilities-advantages the citizens Of
every state help pay for. If that Is
done, the high hopes held for the
pool may be realized-if II is not, an
economic fasco must result

While William Green and John l..
