Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Ownership of Public Utilities in the United States The purpose in writing the present book has been to analyze the factors involved in the question of Government ownership of public utilities. The writer tried to convey his conviction that the question of Government ownership of public utilities and especially railroads in the United States is essentially one not of railroad management and operation itself, but of general economics and politics. To his mind, Government ownership of public utilities means absolute Government control not only of the industries but also of the politics in the various States and in the Union generally. It means practically, if not formally, abolition of our democratic institutions and of the very spirit of democracy, and substitutes for the rule of the people, for the people, and by the people, an autocracy of the central government. It means abolition of the present division of the country into forty-eight sovereign and independent States, and reduction of the States to simple electral districts, as well as loss by the States of their rights to tax railroad properties Within their boundaries as an exercise of their right of sovereignty.

This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Government Ownership of Public Utility Service Undertakings During the latter part of 1915 a Special Committee on Municipal Ownership was appointed by Francis B. Kellogg, President of the City Club of Los Angeles, with Charles K. Mohler, Consulting Engineer, Chairman. The first result of the Committee's work was embodied in a report (based on 1915 data then available) presented during the fall of 1916, and given to the press. This part of the report is still left mainly on the 1915 basis. A supplemental report was subsequently prepared, a brief synopsis of which was presented to the Club at its regular meeting on Saturday, June 3oth, 1917, by the Committee Chairman. Both reports have been almost wholly the work of Mr. Mohler. These reports contain a vast amount of detail information which should be made available to those interested in public service finances and municipal ownership questions. It is believed that much of the data in the supplemental report and the method of presentation are original and unique.

This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Re Murray Report on Electric Utilities, 1922 From an explanation presented in the report it is learned that it was prepared by a United States firm of consulting engineers - Mr. W. S. Murray and Mr. Henry Flood, J r. - acting under instructions from the National Electric Light Association through which organization the report has been distributed to the public. The report itself is signed by W. S. Murray, who personally received instructions from the National Electric Light Association. This Association is antagonistic to public ownership. Of himself, Mr. Murray, in his report says, I have never subscribed to governmental ownership of electric utilities in the United States. In the introductory portion of his report Mr. Murray records that he received a commission from the National Electric Light Association, to investigate and report on the electric utility systems as operating in the United States and by the hydro-electric Power Commission of Ontario. Mr. Mur ray also states: that the electric utility officials in the States were very much at sea regarding the facts of the hydro-electric Power Commission's policies and operations, and that consequently it is his desire to set forth the facts so that they would be correctly interpreted beyond peradventure of doubt. The results of Mr. Murray's efforts have been published and a large and widespread distribution of his report has been made throughout both the United States and the Dominion of Canada.
