APPROVAL GIVEN NEW BUS ROUTE.
Through Service Between Waterbury, New Haven
 Via Derby Given 0. K.

Through bus service from Water bury to New Haven by way of Derby was entirely at the discretion of the c. R. L., and Connecticut Coin- pany today, following the state Public Utilities Commissions ap- preval yesterday of the latter com pany's application to discontinue the operation of street cars from West Haven to Orange, and substi- tute bus service therefor.
 Under the present service plan passengers going to New Haven via Derby take the bus at Waterbury, but must change for trolley service in Naugatuck. Permission to replace busses for trolleys in Naugatuck and all other towns along the route was previously granted tho o, R. and L., which is in control of that division. From Orange to West Haven is still controlled by the Connecticut Com pany, and 1t was their recent oppli- cation that was approved yesterday,
 By special traffic agreement be- tween the 0. R, and l., and Con- neeticut Company, no change will be necessary when the through service is arranged, although a c. R. and L. bus will be operating at times in Connecticut Company district, and vice versa. Busses will operate between here and New Haven on regular schedule, accerd- ing to Charles q.

Privately Planned Economy

We hear a great deal about "plan-
ned economy" these days-the idea
usually being that government do
the planning for us, with the taxpay-
ers' money.
However, as an advertisement of
the Commonwealth and Southern
Corporation points out, planned eco
nomy is nothing new in the utility
industry. And there haven't been
any public subsidies to pay the bill.
The utilities have planned home
electrification-and as a result the
American people enjoy the cheapest,
best and most widely used domestic
electric service in the world. When
the law hasn't stopped them, utili-
ties in all areas have likewise pro-
vided plans whereby customers can
purchase appliances on easy terms.
The utilities planned interconnec-
tion of distribution systems-and as
a result the smallest village enjoys
service as good as that enjoyed in
great cities.

Proof OF The Pudding

Public utility service is an inti-
mate day-by-day relationship be-
tween companies and customers. -
writes Louis H. Egan. President. I'm
ion Electric Light and Power Com
pany. ut is a business whose prob
lens vary widely from one part of
the country to another, according to
the character and the needs of each
separate territory. The local climate.
the habits and preferences of the
population served, the economic and
geographical Characterization of the
territOry-all these must be taken
into account in the operation of a
public utility and in its regulation as
we'll"
Here is the reason why state reg
ulation of public utilities has been
an almost unqualified success-and
why Federal regulation, in the view
of most experts, would be wrong in
principle and unsatisfactory in prac-
tice. save in some limited instances
where power crosses state lines. A
Federal bureau would make undevi- {
ating rules to apply to California as
well as Maine. North Dakota and
Florida. II would be manifestly i'm /
possible for a Federal utility resu-
latory body to give adequate con-
to the varying needs of 4S /
states-to say nothing of the kicks .
of local customers within a single I
state. Try kicking to the post Office /
about some rule. if you want TO dem
onstrate this, and see how far you
get.
State regulation is localized and

principle of understanding local re-
quirements and conditions. Under it. 4
the American people have received
the best. cheapest and most com
prehensive power service in the

in that year, they spent more than

Their direct purchases thus totaled
almost n billion dollars-$982, ,204, 900
Ito be exact.
A list of the industries that share
in the fruits of this almost incon-
ce;vable private spending, would fill
many a page. The railroads use
about 10000 separate commodities.
They are among the best customers
of all the commodity industries
textiles. metals, coal-as well as
manufacturing industries. Thus.
their influence on employment con-
ditions can hardly be exaggerated.
Directly, I'm normal times, they are
the largest single employer in the
nation-and indirectly, they provide
employment for untold thousands of
workers in the industries they pa
tronize.
II can be said without equivOca-
tion that few single factors can be
more beneficial to the well-being of !
the nation than a prosperous rail
road industry. They are the back
bone of commerce-without the SER /

would virtually come to a stop. They
