The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1938-06-23

Under the circumstances, this was a
really extraordinary exhibition of in
dependence. However, it was certainly
balanced by the almost complete sub
serviency into which Congress- lapsed
in the last month Of the session. 1t
then passed the Presidents wage
and-hour bill, for which there is no
real demand, and the theory as well as
the details of which are open to ques-
ton. 1t passed, too, his whole pump
printing program, in the soundness Of
which not more than a fifth of those
who voted for it believe. 1t yielded to
his, demand that no strings be at
tached to the great sums given him.
1t gave way to him in the proposed
anti-monopoly investigation. Most
amazing of all, it voted down amend
ments to the spending-lending bill,
which would have made it impossible
for the Administration to use relief
funds as a club with which to force
members of Congress into line.
In brief, they refused to free them
selves. While denouncing the mixture
of politics with relief, they rejected
three separate proposals to take poll
tics out of relief, thus creating an
honest election issue upon which the
opposition will dilate in this and the
next campaign. There is not space
here to discuss fully the causes of
this Congressional transition first
from subserviency to independence
and then from independence to an
even greater subserviency, except to
say that chiefly it was due to the fact
that this is an election year. The I'M
founded fright taken from the over
emphasized Florida primaries, the
great temptation of the Federal funds
the anxiety to adjourn, reluctance to
be put in a position of opposing a
recovery program" and mourning

SHOWN the unit sale price of general
power in Imperial Valley for the
years from 1925 to 1887, together
with the estimates of the district
and the company for the next five
years. The districts estimates are
approximately 1.5 mills higher than
the company's, due presumably to
the fact that the former were made
prior to the last reduction in rates.
The detailed data was furnished
us by the power company, and the
estimates were material
ly influenced by the reduction
which was made this year. The
probable future trend in the unit
price of general power also is
shown on the diagram, indicating a
gradual reduction in the cost OF
such energy from approximately
28 cents per XVIII. in 1888 to 2.3
cents per XVIII. in 1850.
On Diagram N is shown graphi-
cally the revenue from sales of
electric energy in Imperial Valley
according to data furnished us by
the power company. This diagram
is generally similar to that of kilo-
watt hour sales, but there is great
er departure between the estimates
of the company and of the district
as to future revenue This is due
to the district assuming greater
average price for general power.
The total revenue from sales o1
electric energy, including sales tc
ice companies and those for resale
in Mexico, reached peak of almos
$1,4O0,000 in 1881, anu the sales
Imperial Valley press., 1938-03-03
l27th Installment)

Such sales may be expected to
increase gradually to about 80 mil
lion XVIII. in 1850 and to produce
a revenue of about $630,000 in that
year. Not all of this power, how
ever, is sold within the Coachella
agricultural area, as the data fur
nished us by Southern Sierras
Power company includes sales in
Palm Springs and vicinity. These
have increased quite rapidly in
recent years, due to the popularity
of this desert resort.
A contract has been entered into
between Coachella Valley County
Water district and Imperial Irriga-
ton District, dated Feb. IA, 1884,
which sets forth the conditions
under which Imperial Irrigation
District shall deliver power for use
in the Coachella district. One of
the considerations is that Coach
ella district shall receive credits
on its repayments to the United
States in amounts equal to eight
percent of the net proceeds receiv-
ed by Imperial district from all
power rights held, owned or pos
sessed by both parties and from all
power works and power facilities

House Debates on

WASHINGTON, Mar. CUP) -
The house today interrupted dis
cussion of the S125.0OO,000 Interior
Supply bill to debate whether
President Roosevelt ever did a
days work in his life
The debate flared up suddenly
when Rep. James c. Scrugham, D.,
New, offered an amendment to in
crease the appropriation for the
Provo River Project, Utah, from
100000 to $350,000.
Rep. Robert F. Rich, r., Pa,
who had offered NUS erous amend
ments to cut down individual items
Cnly to have the house howl them
down was enraged.
Rich started shouting but his
remarks were not generally intel
ligible above the hubbub. One
phrase caught the attention of
Rep. zebulon Weaver, D., NC.
"The gentleman cannot say that
President Roosevelt never did a
days work in his life!' Weaver
said.
Imperial Valley press., 1938-03-03

OF general power reached a peak of
little over $1000,000 in the same
year. Total revenues have not re-
covered to the 1881 level, although
sales in kilowatt hours are above
That level. This naturally is due
to the marked reduction in the av-
erage price of power which has
taken place during the past six
years. The probable future trend
of total revenue from power sales
indicates that there will be less
than 20 per cent increase during
the next Is years. The trend of
general sales, that is, residential,
commercial, industrial, agricultural
and municipal uses, is indicated on
the diagram. This trend curve is
somewhat generalized and does not
coincide with The produce of the
trend of future sales in kiloWatt
iAOdlo biiC afCi oSC ioOC ChpCNOCS
to prevail. The product of these
two factors would indicate a some
what smaller gross revenue in the
next few years and a somewhat
larger revenue after 1945. The de-
parture, however, IS not material
to the problem at hand.
On Diagram N are shown also
the estimates of the district and of
the company covering gross reve-
nues from sales OF power by the
district until 1912. The curve thru
these points has been extended by
us to snow rightly the difference
in later years. Also, there is indicat'
ed the more probable trend of gross
revenues from the sale of power
J by the district in Imperial Valley
Imperial Valley press., 1938-03-03

any reasonable likelihood that the
district could capture them. In
cluded in this category are sales
for resale in Mexico and sales to
ice companies owned by Southern
Sierras Power company through
subsidiary corporation. On Dla-
gram l. are shown historical sales
of all classes and sales in Imperial
Valley of general power, including
residential, commercial, industrial
agricultural, and municipal uses.
This group of sales increased from
about IL million XVIII. in 1925 to
a peak of about % million in 1881,
then decreased slightly and again
increased to a little more than -6
million XVIII. in 1886, including
sales by the district in BraWley.
These classes of electric conSump-
ton comprise the competitive mar
ket.
AS shown on Diagram l., we estl-
mate that future sales of this char
acter by the company and by the
district will be in accordance with
the following general trend, sub
iect of course to material depart
ture in individual years:
1910 ...........-.. 35.O00000 XVIII.
1945 .............. 43,0O0,000 XVIII.
1850 ............. 5O,00OO00 XVIII.
Neither the district nor the COM
pany have furnished us with recent
estimates of competitive power
sales beyond 1912, but both nave
furnished estimates for the inter-
vening years, which are in general
accord with the trend curve OF
general power sales.
Estimates of the degree to which
the district will be able to capture
the competitive market differ wide
ly, depending upon the point OF
view of the estimator. In general,
the district expects to capture all
of the municipal power and ap-
proXimately two-thirdS OF all other
competitive power, and IN add1ton
that it will secure substantially all
future growth in rural load. The
company, on the other hand, does
not believe that the district Will
be able to capture more than an
average of about 40 percent OF the
competitive power, plus such load
as NAV be developed by the rural
electrification program OF the dis
trict.
The actual sales of energy by
the district in 1886 and 1897 Cthe
latter partially estimated and the
respective estimates of the district
and of the company are also shown
on Diagram l.. These have been
extended by us along trend curves
to indicate the probable sales by
the district on each basis of eStl-
nation In addition, there is SHOWN
curve marked $50 percent to dis
trict," which in our opinion Is rep
resentative of sales to be antlcl-
pated. In other words, we believe
that the district will be able TO
capture substantially go per cent
of the total general power load
in Imperial Valley.
The average rate at which such
electric energy will be sold has been
estimated by the district and by
the company. On Diagram M is
