Utility Survey DIscIoses
Decline in Capital Yield
Spseiol Dispateh 10 The stor

CHICAGO, Aug. 14.-Although Sc
curity holders added around q bill
lion dollars to their investment in
the Nations public utilities in 1s47,
Me companies gross income avail
able for interest and dividends
gained only 100 per cent, reported
c. A. Turner. industry statistician.
In preview Of his fifth annual
edition OF Financial Statistics of
Pubic Utilities" Mr.. Turner said
total revenues received from GUS
toners in ls47 rose to s4,61S 900, 900,
a gain of 1915 per cent from the
preceding year. However, expenses
climbed 1855 per cent, including a
1881 per cent jump in operating
and maintenance costs.
The return on invested capital
dropped to 6.18 per cent from 654
per cent in the previous year. Mr.
Turner said the industry may FIND
1t increasingly difficult to obtain
funds for badly needed expansion il
the return continues to decline.
The average interest rate on long
term debt has reached the low point
OF 3.04 per cent and the preferred
stock rate has dropped to an aver
age OF 4.57 per cent. Refunding oil
securities is practically complete ano
Federal taxes have been reduced
which eliminates the possibility O.
much additional savings from these
two sources. II costs continue te
rise, rate adjustments will be the
only source of relief, he said,
Mr., Turner's compilation covers
approximately 80 per cent of the
electric and gas utility industries.
