z|ECLER SLATE SWEEPS FIELD
 IN KETCHIKAN
Control of Municipality Owned Utilities Figures
 in Heavy Balloting

KETCHIKAN, Alaska April G. A total of 1857 citizens, the larg- est number ever to vote in a city election here, yesterday named A. H. ziegler, attorney, as Mayor over c. H. Hanson by a vote of 1,038 to ATT. F. J. Chapman, J. E. Johnson and J. w. Mendenhall were named to Council, thus giving the newly formed citizens League clean sweep for Mayor and the three Council seats.
 An opposition candidate, A. F. Bethe, was reelected to the Utili- ties Board of Control, and Lester o. Gore, Independent was elected to the School Board.
 The election issue originally found the Citizens ticket opposing the incumbents on the Council because of the current city deficit but in the last few days of campaign, in- cumbents charged the Citizens ticket was a smokescreen for a pos sible attack on the municipality owned utilities.
 Hundreds registered in the final days. The vote was 27 percent high CT than the previous record set in 1888.

WASHINGTON, April 6. = So promising are the power possibil- ltles Of a new diesel unit soon to come on the market in quantity production that a government en- glneer has been asked to study what effect it may have on demand for power from the big dams.
 The findings were arresting, but not necessarily revolutionary. The conclusion of the engineer, whose report is kept within strictly lim- tied hands, is that the new unit likely will offer serious competi- tion to the less efficient electric utility companies and will scissor off some of the outlying business of even. the best of them.
 The engineer computed that the new engine would provide kilo- watt of power for year of normal use at a cost of about S20 That covers amortized capital cost and operating expense. A kilowatt of installed capacity is about what is required to provide power for one rather large home with the usual domestic equipment kit h e Il range, refrigerator, water heater, lights and conveniences.

Hvered at Los Angeles for about $l6. That puts Boulder dam pro- duction out of danger of even the most favorable estimates of the new diesel.
 For further comparison the en- gineer computed that Washington D. O., power runs about S44 kilo- watt a year. Tacoma, Wash, with municipally owned hydroelectric plan, he said, does the same for $20.10, about on par with the diesel.
 The new diesel, a high speed de- velopment in comparison with low speed diesels generally in use in recent years, has certain disad- vantages in competition with the power drawn from big public utili- ty plants.
 Further, the engineer who made the study was frank to say that he had deliberately taken the best probable production of the diesels against the average of the public utilities and the fe deral power dams. He did that, he said, so his boss, head of an important gov ernment power agency, would know the most serious side of the com petition he might expect in ex- banding service into the country side about his project.

Small Vote, Even If Con- elusive, Would Fail to Es-

Asked for a comment on the vote fin the city election yesterday on the question Are you in favor of municipal ownership of light. tele- phone and water systems of Jun eau,' w. S. Pullen, manager of the Alaska Electric Light & Power Com pany, made his statement this morning regarding the vote on mum icipal ownership of public utilities: Naturally we are very much pleas ed at the result of the ballot on the question of municipal ownership of light, telephone and waters systems. he said. Since our company owns the present light system, and has a large amount of money invested in largest taxpayer in Juneau, We do not, of course, desire to enter into competition with a publicly owned light system for the reason that splitting the business in these days of increasing costs and high taxes would naturally result in losses, not only to the city, but to our company, and we would still be on the tax roll as probably the largest taxpay- CT.
 An analysis Of the results of yesterdays ballot should be suffi- cient to convince anyone that tax payers of Juneau are far from be- ing favorable to the expenditure necessary to install light. water and telephone systems.
 "As we have already pointed out. the indebtedness necessary to se- cure the captal required for muni- cipal ownership of light. telephone and water systems could only be in- cured with the approval of 65s6 of the taxpayers of Juneau This does
