C-',' I DIVINE’S , '9“!on an: mums Prat-nor Herbert R-Donu. A m- bee ot the stair of Noettoreater. Illi- mity’s institute for - in bud economics and - utilities to- day addressed the “no convention " the Illinois Utilities nasal-ti“ in Ill- allll convention at sprtutefieU. and stated that while nunicipnlly-o‘med eieetrie light and as punts are not going out of existence. they are rap- idly (will: from pover-pmducing autits to power buying plants. Che old electric light plant that used to produce its on electricity tend dis- tribute it about the town or city, in now in many cases standing but is buying its energy from one of the larger companies whose transmission lines can be conveniently connected up. It seems that the large transmitting company is than tmpereedirtg the small eestrie-produeintr unit, ultholl‘h the punts themselves still stand and distribute energy. Tratea Derek-eat l Professor Dorau traced the devetop- L merit of municipal ownership in the electric light and power industry’ showing that it has alvays been an1 aspect of the ortearyixation of this util- , ity and that. although as early as: 1900 and at frequent intervals since,1 its decline and disappearance has; been predicted the number of muni- cipaliy-ovrned plants has increased steadily and rapidly down to the pres- i cut time. In more recent years. how.. l a", a transformation and change in ' both the character and extent of mun- icipal ownership in this industry seems _ to be taking place. The munieipatlr owned plants are rapidly changing‘ from a condition of setr-sMieiency in which they themselves produced the] current which they distribute to a; condition of dependency in which ther either purchase all or part of the elec- ', tricity which they sell. 1 To Private Ownership 1 "These changes in the character of the municipally owned plant," he said, 1 "are also being accompanied by an; inereasims number of changes from municipal ownership to private ownm ership. These changes in both the character and extent of municipal ownership in the electric light and power industry I attribute not to any teneral change of beliefs in either, the principle or public or private own- ership, bot to the irresistible force of l a chanting technology in the electrical industry. These technological ehanees I are principally two in character: The economies in electrical production in the large central plant and the in- creasing range of economical long-dis- tance transmission. It would seem that the municipal establishnients will have to readjust themselves to this change in technology_ or rather gen- erally pass out of existence. Cites Instances The fact that municipal establish.. ments have already readjusted them, selves to these changed conditions. Professor Donn illustrated by the re- sults of his studies of the history of municipal ownership in the states of 'Wiaeousin and MassmehusettB. For Wisconsin he showed that out of the 115 municipal electric light and power establishments which existed in that state some time or other between 1&1 and 1926. 26 have changed from municipal to private owoership, louv- ing 89 municipal establishments in 1926: out of this 89. " continug to mute enough current to satisfy their entire demand, " generate only part of the current which they distritr- ute and 63 purchase from private power companies the entire amount of,their distribution. He illustrated these changes fur- ther by referent; to the history of municipally and plants in Massa- ehuseth. where, unbound: the num- her of putrtieir and plants has not darn-sod this Mal evolution from setf-mdBeimr - to phat: pm chain; part of their output to plants -hasintt III of their WWII in some nucl- Nether, so far ind-ed tut in 1926 no “kindly owned - m ”um vul- - " [united part of their cm: and inmahwmuuup qrrirements tran other nations.
