Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy Nothing
Reads Like Atlanta
THIS EDITORIAL IS TAKEN FROM THE
JANUARY 26TH ISSUE OF ENGINEERING
AND CONTRACTING, A MAGAZINE PUB- .
LISHED IN CHICAGO.
“A charge persisted in without knowledge c 4 facts is
nothing short of slander. We may safely broaden this gen
eralization to read: Persistent statements not based on in
vestigation of facts are tantamount to deliberate falsifica
tion.
“We concede that the average man is as yet very care
less in his assertions, and that he sees nothing reprehensible
in being wrong. But when being wrong in an assertion
works injury to someone, the asserter is morally but little
above a common liar.
“During the past few years when public utility owners
and managers have been begging the public for relief from
excessively low rates for services rendered, there have been
numberless printed assertions by public officials to the
effect that existing rates were his"h enough to yield a fair
return upon actual investments. Even where appraisals by
reputable engineers and audits by accountants have belied
such assertions, rarelv have the asserters had the honesty
to investigate the facts. Instead, their unusual practice has
been to ignore all evidence and persist in their unprovable
statements.
“To such a pass has this form of immorality brought
things that several state legislatures are to be asked to
rescind laws relating to state regulation of public utility
rates. When mayors and other public officials persist in
telling the public that street railways can profitably carry
passengers at 5 and 6 cents, is it any wonder that many
people have come to regard state utility commissions as
being the tools of utility companies?
“In one state the governor has ousted all the utility com
missioners, because they incurred the ill will of certain
people on account of rate increases granted to public utili
ties. In another state one of the most fearless and capable
utility commissioners has resigned, apparently disgusted
with the charges made not merely by some mayors but by
some newspapers that the commission has done nothing
but raise utility rates unnecessarily. If the engineering
societies in such states were a few years in advance of their
present development, probably the public would receive au
thoritative expressions of engineering opinion that would
contradict and perhaps silence the false statements of dema
gogic mayors. The time is certainly overripe for protests
from associations of professional and business men against
the baseless assertions and the selfish acts of politicians who
are pandering to the worst side of human nature. The
public would like to ride on street cars for a nickel. They
would like better to ride for nothing. Hence the public is
not only willing to be convinced, but is half convinced be
fore any one has spoken that the ‘predatory railway kings’
are robbing them. The silence of men who know better—-
engineers, business men and editors—is taken as evidence
that the statements of the pandering politicians are true.
“It will not do to excuse ourselves from the dut -of
speaking and acting now. We have ‘passed the buck’ tc’iea
without number, until a few more passings will find us all
riding in the street cars as slowly and expensively operated
as the elevators in the typical city hall. America is face to
face with municipal ownership of street car systems, of gas
and electric plants. Steadily and with unrelenting pressure,
the economic life of public utility companies is being
squeezed out. State cbmmissions and courts are trying to
be just, but an ignorant public is constantly threatening
them and doing all that it can to block their efforts. The
ignorance of the public is mainly ascribable to the silence,
of the men who are most competent to speak not only with
authority but with freedom from selfish motives—the pro
fessional engineers.
“Whether there is to be municipal ownership of all utili
ties or not, professional engineers will be employed. Many
engineers think that their chances of securing adequate
compensation are better under public than under private
administration. At all events there is so little to choose in
that, respect, that engineers as a body cannot be charged
with selfish motives in advocating fair rates for public
utility corporation services and fair treatment of public util
ity commissions.
“Apropos of the unsound attitude of most munici; \ offi
cials relative to public utility rates, we quote from a ecent
address before the League of California Municipalities by
W. E. Creed, president of the Pacific Gas and Electric Cos.:
“ ‘On the habit of jumping at conclusions without knowl
edge of the facts, I cite the official procedure when an
application for increased rates is filed.
“ ‘The city council mrts. It forthwith passes a resolu
tion and instructs the city attorney to oppose the applica
tion. The city attorney issues his public pronouncement,
duly accompanied by photographs, saying: “I will fight to
the last ditch,” as he raises his eyes to heaven and prays to
God to give him strength that justice may triumph and right
prevail.
“ ‘Never in all my experience, and I have been in the
public utility business a good many years as a lawyer and
as an executive, never in all my experience have I ever
heard of, read, or seen a resolution by a city council direct
ing a city attorney to investigate the facts and to reason
from those facts to a sound conclusion in the public inter
est. Apparently some public officials are not concerned
about the facts, but are stalwart nevertheless in their con
clusions.
“ ‘A rate inquiry ought not to be an adversary proceed
ing, but should be a mutual and co-operative investigation
of the facts, proceeding upon the theory that either too
high or too low a rate is an injury both to the utility and
to the public’.”

FIRE INSURANCE IS A S T EP IN
THE RIGHT DIRECTION
*
As you look with satisfaction at your fire insurance policies
you realize that fire is a constant menace and feel secure
in your protection against such a misfortune.
But how about tlie many other tilings that may happen
which will cause you financial loss? Nobody knows from
what quarter misfortune may come. Your paymaster may
be robbed, your employees hurt, your clerks may prove dis
honest, your goods may he lost in transit, your automobile
may be wrecked, your own earning capacity may be effected
by sickness or accident.
These and many other losses may come any time and
when they do come they may cause a greater loss than a fire.
If the theory of insurance is sound you should appy it to
protect you and your property from every possible loss.
What a comforting feeling of security it will give you
to know that you are protected from every possible danger
