Cheap Power

people the high things which its
proponents promise. 1t might

low al Smiths injunction TO

complaining bitterly about it.
The Land of the Maple Leaf,
it would seem, also has it's quota
of crack-pots. its share of wild

impractical schemes to remake
society over night. One of these
schemes suggested in recent
months in Canada was to take
the manufacturing of bread out

Canadian Government turn baker.

AN EASY MONEY WAR

These columns do not give ad-
vice to investors, and we are
aware of the perils of specuIat-
ing even mentally on the course
of the stock market. Yet the
drop in security prices on the
New York Stock Exhange has
evoked questions in the public
mind which merit some discus
sion.
The rumor that the big boys'
have inside dope that the war is
going to end soon land war
stocks will be worthless is de-
clared by res Donsible commenta-
tors to be lll-founded. The gen.
erals don't think there is going
to be quick ending of the war;
they are genuinely and terribly
troubled lest such a belief should
cause et-down in the war eff
fort. Indeed, ere appears
much more danger of initiation,
which would ordinarily balloon
stocks. What with Congress
merely scratching t h e surface
with new taxes and turning a
cold shoulder to Administration
plans for controlling prices and
with labor breaking through the
wage controls, the anti-inflation
front has suffered worse reverses
than German defense lines in the
last two weeks.
But the logic or illogic of the
market is not our chief concern.
We are thinking more of the fact
that what must be for most peo-
pie the best of good ne W s-a
hope that the killing and all the
other hateful things of war will

very injurious to the eyes. It is
safe to assume that were this in
ferior power purveyed by private
ly owned companies. the Ontario
public would force those com.
panles to change over TO t h e
steadier nd non-injurious CO.
cycle power.
But the -hards among the
proponents of public ownership
in Canada (probably blinded by
the Pickering llghO, will glibly
point to the low rate charged for
this power as compared with
rates charged bv private com.
panies before government took
them over or ran them out of
business. They neglect. however
to advise that it has ever been
t h e policy of privately owned
utility companies in Canada, as
has been the case in this country,
constantly to lower their rates,
giving the consumer cheaper and
cheaper power.
Another important detail they
neglect to divulge wv suspect
deliberately. is t h a t publicly
owned utilities do not compete on
a fair basis with the privately
owned companies. Tax exemp-
tions give the publicly owned a
tremendous advantage over the
privately owned utilities. Sta
tistics issued by the Canadian
Bureau of Statistics are positive
proof of the aforegoing state
ment. Here they are:
Privately owned utilities pay
almost Is time as much in taxes
as publicly owned utilities pay.
The gross revenues of Canadian
privately owned utilities in 1911,
the last year for which complete
returns are available, amounted
to Ill million dollars, and their
tax payments totaled $22, 900, 900,
slightly more than 20 per cent of
their gross revenue. In t h e
same year. the revenues of the
publicly owned utilities were "a
million dollars and their tax pay
ments slightly more than l mil
lion dollars, less than II per
cent"
The one conclusion to be ar
rived at from the testimony of
the Toronto Telegram" and the
revealing figures of the Canad-
ian Bureau of Statistics is that
the only thing really cheap about
t h e juice being dispensed by
government in Toronto and VIC
unity. is the quality of that cleo
trio current. Unfortunately, this
Canadian situation is not eXcep.
tional. t 8 what happens in
every case where government in
terferes with. completes with or
