Wilson Brands Plan For City Purchase Of Gas And Electric Company. Would Simply Mean Shifting Of Taxes And Not Savings, Councilman Avers. Opening his campaign for reelection last night, Russell 1. Wilson, Charter Councilman, in radio address, termed the proposal of municipal ownership of the Cincinnati Gas Electric Co. "almost fantastic." His address follows: You have read or heard, that the City Charter Committee has incorporated in its 1945 platform the following plank, and I quote: Public Utilities.

All questions concerning public utilites should be thoroughly investigated and reports made to the citizens by Council. One such question is: Should the city buy the Cincinnati Gas Electric the ownership of which the Federal Government has ordered changed. As a candidate for reelection to City Council with the endorsement of the City Charter Campaign Committee, I subscribe to the entire platform, including that plank which I just read to you, However, I am still opposed to the municipal ownership of our gas and electric properties and, while I can see no harm- except a waste of time--in the investigation of the matter, I will do all in my power to protect the people of Cincinnati from the mistake of being promoted by New York bankers into the purchase of the gas and electric utility. CITES HIS REASONS. Here are my reasons: How can the city buy the gas and electric company when it is not for sale? The final decision on this point rests with its present owners, and they have informed the city that the property is not for saliat makes the question academic, but let's discuss it on its merits.

Municipal ownership would saddle onto the people these important disadvantages: It would more than 000 to the city's debt, and thus triple the present city debt. It would wipe out more than a million dollars in local taxes now paid by the company. The public would lose all benefits of state regulation of rates and standards of service. It would deprive 4,000 employees of the company of many rights and advantages they have earned by faithful service. raises another interesting question: Should the city government take over a new business with 4.000 more employees or should it devote its efforts to its own present problems of flood trol, airport, sewage disposal, water supply, slum clearance and city planning." SEES TAX EVASION.

The whole case for municipal ownership in Cincinnati rests upon two very questionable methods of tax evasion. Under municipal operation, the people of this city can evade the large war taxes now paid to the Federal electric government by the gas and company. Alse, by issuing tax exempt municiey to buy and operate the properpal bonds, the city can tain monties at a lower rate of interest than a business organization, whose bond interest and dividends are fully taxed. Both of these conditions are temporary. These tax, evasions are being misnamed "savings," but nothing would really be saved.

The city would merely be shifting these taxes from one set of shoulders to another. Without these two tax evasions, there would be nothing to discuss, since the local rates for gas and electricity are among the lowest in the nation, and the excellent quality of the service is admitted by all. The city could make the same showing of fictitious savings in taking over all tax-paying business. But when any branch of our government engages in business for the purpose of evading thee taxes of another branch, it embarks on a course which can only lead to the destruction of the whole form of government on which our nation has been built. RAISES BIG QUESTION.

This raises the big question: "where do we intend to stop?" it is sound gas and electricity, why not for transportation, telephone, insurance, housing, food. clothes, soap, any form of business? late President Coolidge an swered that question in these words: "The alternative to private ownership and control is public ownership and control, which, broadly extended, ts But, on top all these reasons, the fact that if the city owned the gas and electric company, it is would have to cut off almost onethird of the electric business of the present company. The Ohio Constitution limits the sale outside this city to one-half of that supplied within the city. In other words, only one-third of the total sales can be made outside the city. At present, 55 per cent is being sold to outside customers.

This was the objection of Governor when Mayor of Cleveland, to that city taking over the Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company. Under these conditions, the proposal becomes almost fantastic. "Obsolete," Dorsey Says Of 25 Of City's Schools Contending that "many of Cincinnati's schools have had temporary buildings for 20 years or more," Howard A. Dorsey, candidate for the Board of Education. declared in a prepared statement yesterday that the present board "certainly can't blame that on the war emergency." Of 81 school buildings in Cincinnati, 25 are more than 50 years old "hopelessly Dorsey said.

He cited Whittier School in Price Hill as an example. The building has 165 more students than it was designed to hold and the school rates 50 per cent of standard, he asserted.

Willis Gradison's platform in the current Council campaign is best described his own phrase as "criticism and concert." Charles P. Taft, Charter candidate, declared yesterday, at a meeting of campaign workers at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thexton, 2708 Johnstone Pl. "Gradison has claimed credit for no less than three major Charter proposals, each of which he opposed until public sentiment for them threatened to overwhelm him," Taft said.

"Then in each case at the last moment he got on the band wagon, "Elizabeth Cassatt Reid, Charter Councilwoman, not Gradison's Bond Program Committee, originated the $41,000,000 bond issue ($16,000,000 of which is for the city) by her resolution in Council on May 2, 1944. Gradison, who now claims credit for it, then on the floor of Council called it 'cheap This is on the record. "Albert Cash, Charter Councilman, was the original supporter of the Master Plan, and for weeks Gradison refused to approve the appropriation for the plan. He said to the League of Women Voters that we had a 1925 plan which was good enough. "Ed Waldvogel, Charter Councilman, was the leader in the fight for the cost-of-living salary increase and stabilization plan for city employees.

"Wilbur Kellogg was offered the city managership by George Eyrich, Republican County Chairman, provided Kellogg would fire John Ellis (City Solicitor) 'et cetera, Kellogg refused the job. Where were Gradison and his fellow Councilmen of the do-nothing majority then? Couldn't they stop Eyrich or did they authorize him to make that proposition? "It until a few aroused Republican citizens raised Cain with Eyrich, and the newspapers joined in, that the offer' was renewed without strings. I then personally helped induce Kellogg to accept. "This city is beginning to wake up now -but my son when he gets out of the Navy will not be persuaded to settle in Cincinnati because of anything Vice Mayor Gradison said Saturday- or anything he and his associates have done since they got actual control of city administration on January the, 1938. "The people of Cincinnati are looking for action -not And there has been only obstruction.

Total registrations in Hamilton County outside Cincinnati, Norwood and St. Bernard this year showed a slump of 30,000, Carl R. Wenzel, Clerk, Board of Elections, reported last night.

The deficit in the 189 precincts outside municipalities was based upon an estimated 75,000 registered voters, only 45,000 of whom had registered at closing time Saturday night. No further registrations can be made until after the November 6 election, Wenzel pointed out, thus leaving 30,000 voters without a ballot in that election. Elderly Widow Passes At Home On West Coast Friends in Northern Kentucky learned yesterday of the death in Los Angeles, of Mrs. Marge O'Maley Webster, member of a family long prominent in Cincinnati and Covington. Mrs.

Webster, who was 71 years old, moved to Los Angeles 15 years following death of her husago band, Esau Webster, a candy manufacturer in Covington for many A brother, the late Dr. years. Joseph M. O'Maley, was a Covington physician for 40 years and anbrother, George O'Maley, also other, a drugstore in Covington for a long time. A native Cincinnatian, Mrs.

Webster lived much of her life in Covington. Friends recalled last night that her father, James J. O'Maley, was in the contracting business in Cincinnati and had a part in the construction of many of the city's larger projects, including the Waterworks and the Zoo. Mrs. Webster, who died Saturday, is to be buried Wednesday in Inglewood, Calif.

Money Goes Begging! Roll Of Bills Found Year Ago In Covington Bank Promises To Be Court Problem. Exactly a year ago Mrs. Mollie Cordrey, 828 Willard Covington, found a large sum in currency in a Covington bank. Not being blessed with much of this world's, goods, Mrs. Cordrey could have used that money.

It would have made life much easier for her. And nobody could have said the bills were not hers, because they could not be identified as belonging to anyone in particular. But right is right, SO Mrs. Cordrey turned the bills over to officials at the bank. They said they would find out who owned the money, because they had a list of the persons who had been in particular part of the bank that day.

But 365 days passed and the bank failed to find the owner of that little fortune. An attorney who was consulted by Mrs. Cordrey told her the bank could not hold the money longer than a year. After that, he said, the money would have to be turned over to a court, which would have to determine the rightful owner. However, Mrs.

Cordrey said last night that she felt the money belonged to her. As time passed, she said, she has done quite a bit of thinking about that money, and a theory has formed in her mind. Since nobody claims the money, she believes the owner of the money left the money where she found it purposely, for her, or perhaps somebody else, to find. It may have been an old person, she thinks, somebody who felt he did not have much longer to live and who wanted to dispose of his money in an anonymous and somewhat unusual way.
