TBE AMERICAN WAY
The Electric Power Industry

No honest individual, having
learned the facts about electric
power development in this coun-
try, can approve putting govern
ment further into competition
with the investor-owned COM
panies. The factual story of the
electric power industry, told in
terms of foresight and research,
is drama of how people get
things done in a free economy.
Let's explore some of these facts.
The United States produces al
per cent of the worlds electri-
city. The second nation in electri-
city production, produces less
than ii per cent.
In l947, following World War
II, when the electric power in
dustry was unable to carry out
normal construction, it had six
per cent margin of reserve cap
acity. At the close of 1854, it had
a reserve of 21.5 per cent. In the
nine year period, 1946-l954, it
spent 1872 billion dollars in new
construction to bring its total
plant investment to % billion
dollars.
1t paid Sl,477, 100000 last year
in federal, state and local taxes
representing % cents out every
dollar received from its custom
ers. Contrast that with Uncle
Sans own politicians power de-
velopment which paid nothing
into the federal treasury, and
local units.
The investor owned electric
power industry will spend ST.
700,000,000 this year and $2,40O,-
00O,o00 next year. In the next
four years it will add 234 new
units for an additional 1868, 900
XIV, bringing total capacity to
l03, 100000 XIV. All this has been
done or will be done at no cost
to any American taxpayer, no
matter where located. Contrast
that with the cost to the Ameri-
can taxpayers when Federal
Government takes on an electric
power producing project.
Because the investor owned
companies look into the future
and are willing TO risk billions
on what they see there, they
have been major factor in
Americas industrial growth.
Their engineers already are pre-
pairing for 1865, by which time
power needs are expected to be
doubled; and to 1875, when, ac-
cording to present indications. a
possible maximum of 423 million
XIV will be needed-over four
times the present capacity.
AS electrical production went
up, the price of electricity con-
sistently went down. Seventy
years ago when Edison invented

SabOtaging Passenger Aircraft

Shocking as it was in personal
terms, the alleged sabotaging of
passenger airliner near Denver
on November l also revealed
what I believe to be a need for
additional legislation. The eX-
plosion of the plane which killed
A persons exposed serious legal
gaps concerning both jurisdiction
and penalties for acts of this
kind.
In my study of the question,
I believe the Federal legislation
used to indict an individual
accused of such crime is ur-
necessary complex since it is
primarily concerned with the
sabotaging of the national def
ense. This legislation, as matter
of fact, is intended to provide
penalties in circumstances quite
different from those which may
apply in the Denver case. T.
seems very doubtful that convic-
ton for murder could be obtain
ed under these laws unless it
could be shown that it was the
clear intent of the individual
to damage the defense effort. In
addition, such laws as have been
enacted are temporary in char
acter and will apply only SO long
as a national emergency exists.
AS in this case, l recognize
that the criminal laws of the
various States. may be applicable
if acts of this kind are commit
ted in the future. Nevertheless, if
such crimes are committed out
side the continental limits of the
United States and beyond the
jurisdiction of any State criminal
statutes, the weakness Of our
