Question Isn't it politically and morally wrong for a city to enter into business in competition . with privately ownetd utility ? Answer It would be morally wrong for Provo not to acquire this natural monopoly now that we have such a fine opportunity to do so. Glen Frank once wrote that radicals and conservatives were really of the same mind. "Both are afraid of being inconsistent," incon-sistent," he said. The big utilities know thta many people adopt a general rule or slogan and never deviate therefrom. The slogan now is that government should not be In business. Many little business men believe that they are fighting a common cause, shoulder to shoulder with the big privately owned utilities. There is a vast difference between the ordinary or average business and these big combinations that have alnonopoly on a general necessity like electrieity. If it is politically politi-cally or morally wrong to own our electric system it is also politically po-litically and morally wrong for any city to own its water system. In principle they are the same. The power people say that their businees is highly competitive and not a monopoly. When a satisfactory satis-factory substitute for electricity is developed their claim will be justified. There is no satisfactory substitute for electricity in this modern world. On our recent trip we failed to observe that the communities owning electric utilities were any more socialistic in business mat-lers mat-lers generally than were cities that did not own electric systems. The socialistic scare is a deliberate delib-erate piece of clever propaganda put out by the big utilities to prejudice small business people against municipal ownership ot electric utilities. Question How will you determine deter-mine the value of present distribution distri-bution system if the city buys it? Answer - The physical valuo Or depreciated cost will not furnish furn-ish a complete basis for a purchase. pur-chase. There are other factors to consider. We must decide what it is worth to us to immediately immed-iately eliminate competition. We of course know approximately what it will cost us to buld a new distribution system. An old and obsolete system is worth no more than fifty per cent as much as a new one on the basis" nyf uliyslcitrr value nlonf There -tR ;lso a greater leak or lose of electricity from oil lines. Maintenance co.ts are also much higher on old than new lines- All of these things must be taken into account. After all, an independent of engineering estimates, the figure paid must be to a great extent arbitrarily decided. Engineering is one thing GRAND VP MRS. CLARK CARTER, Reporter Mrs. Ruby tratton entertained the members of her sewing club at her home Friday utfernoo:' The time was spent in sewing and delicious refreshments were served, ser-ved, covers being laid for the following: Mrs. Elsie Taylor.

A.nswer Yes, just as continuous and adequate as at present. There would be no noticeable difference Jue to the change. All modern plants insure uninterrupted unin-terrupted service. This is accomplished accom-plished by installing two or more units any one of which is adequate ade-quate to carry the peak load. Generally Gen-erally when poor service is referred refer-red to, the comparison is made with city owned systems of twenty twen-ty years ago and privately owned sjstems of today. Modern conditions condi-tions and customs demand first clsas service from both city owned and privately owned plants. Question How long will it take to build a plant? Answer From nine months to a year. Question What type of plant will Provo build? Answer--I favor a coal-steam plant but engineers who know more about this subject than I say that we would do equally well with a dieserplant. Communities of our size are succeeding with either type. Both types have developed de-veloped to a high point of efficiency. effic-iency. The original cost would likely be a little less with a Diesel plant than with a steam plant. Since we are next door to one of the largest coal fields in the world we should favor coal if the difference dif-ference in favor of Diesel is not too great. Engineers will make careful comparisons before a final decision is reached. We have in abundance of city owned irrigation ir-rigation water. Questions-Area' t the bond buyers buy-ers taking a big risk in buying Knd secured only by the revenues from the plant? Answer No, this is the safest ype of investment. There is noth-ng noth-ng better than a bond secured by the revenues of a natural monopoly mon-opoly like water or electricity. Bonding houses and bond buyers know that the use of electricity is general, that the consumption f electricity is rapidly increas- ng, that Provo will be using elec-rrrrrty elec-rrrrrty twenty-five years from now. v After all a mortgage on property prop-erty that yields no income is of 10 value: Revenue determines the value. The holders of preferred P. L. stock are holding noth-ng noth-ng but revenue bonds. And these ' ootids do not have first call on , the revenues of the system. There are several classes of securi- 1 ties ahead of them. The revenue Donds of a city owned system are j n first place. No first or second I nortgage bonds ahead of them. MAKE PLANS FOR CELEBRATION SPANISH FORK Members of I the Business and Professional Men's club have been granted the j privilege of handling the Fourth j of July celebration at Spanish Fork and prelininary plans are ; being discussed. Announcement is made that the celebration this year will be one of the largest in years and will include some original features as well as the usual ones. It has been agreed to choose a Goddess of Liberty and Miss I'tah by afWMection at one cent per vote so that the two most popular young ladies of Spanish Fork may be sleeted for the two places of honor. Another meeting of the club to .work out details of the celebration will be held Monday evening at 8 o'clock, the place has not been decided upon as yet. A recent financial re port of the organizations shows that the association has expended SIO.OO for worth while enterprises enter-prises and improvements in Spanish Span-ish Fork including permanent holiday lighting fixtures, contributions contri-butions to the Junior Livestock show, to the Spanish Fork high school opera, athletic enterprises and as tokens of remembrance for members who have died during dur-ing the year. the program in sacrement meeting meet-ing Sunday evening with William A.

Klein I World's End T ATE in 1835, Clvirlcs Darwin arrived at a group of islands lying on the equator in the Pacific, Pa-cific, where he fcund strnnyc birds and animals that helped him formulate his revolutionary theory of evolution. Here, amid hundreds of craters and cold lava rock, he found the huge tortoises called "galapagos," from which the islands got their name. Today, these Galapagos Islands are the "world's end" for scientists scien-tists and adventurers. Arrivals find there a fascination which led the Spaniards, who discovered discov-ered the group centuries ago, to call them "The Enchanted Isles." Today, hardly a tortoise exists there, but many of these strange eld creatures may be found in zoos throughout the woifd: Owned by Ecuador, the islands originally harbored a penal colony. Early in 1936, Ecuador issued 1 set of stamps for the islands. The stamp shown here pictures a 'galapago." ' l' 1 ig M, JL)M, NliA Service. "Inc.

Miss Knox declared that so many women are beginning to realize these facts and kitchen modernizing is becoming be-coming so popular, that today's kitchen Is doomed. Tomorrow's kitchen is here, she says, and the new standard, or ideal or concept for kitchen is well on its way towards to-wards general acceptance. The National Kitchen modernization moderni-zation bureau, which was recently organized, with headquarters in the Graybar Building, New York City, is making rapid strides toward to-ward developing a public consciousness con-sciousness of the advantages of modern kitchens. Local bureaus are being established estab-lished in many cities and these local bureaus will coordinatee with a national program and stimulate stim-ulate public interest through newspaper advertising and general gener-al promotion, such as the installation instal-lation of model electric kitchens for public inspection, by making available kitchen planning service and novel promotional activities.

At the same time the easier financing of kitchen modernizing mod-ernizing has been made possible to arrange through the National Housing act. Many families are now in position posi-tion to have their kitchens modernized mod-ernized and to enjoy the many benefits In better living which are derived from greater kitchen comfort and efficiency. The aim is to make this a standard in building of new middle class homes.
