Railway Valuation In Condemnation Proceedings--Relation To Rate Making
Railway Valuation In Condemnation Proceedings--Relation To Rate Making
Michigan Law Review
ln England the reproduction cost of a railroad is disregarded in fixing the price which a government must pay on taking over the property. Grand Trunk Ry. v. The King [1923] A. C. 150, which affirmed the decision of two out of three arbitrators that the preferred and common stockholders should get nothing, inasmuch as the earning capacity of the railroad gave them no value, and the "reproduction" or "reconstruction'' or "replacement" value of the railroad was immaterial. Mr. Taft, now Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, was one of the arbitrators and dissented. The opinions …

Is A Municipal Fuel-Yard A "Public Service Plant"?
Michigan Law Review
In Consumers Coal Co. et al. v. City of Lincoln, et al. (Neb. 1922) 18g N. W. 643, the supreme court of Nebraska held that a municipal fuel-yard, selling fuel at retail to the inhabitants of the city, was not a "public service plant" authorized by a section of the city charter which empowered the city to acquire, own and operate gas and electric plants, street railways, telephone plants, "and any and all other public service plants and properties, for the purpose of supplying the city and the inhabitants thereof with such service and public utilities.'' The suit was …

Public Utility Valuation, Edwin C. Goddard
Articles
It has been so often remarked that the "valuation" of public utilities is determined by no rule of thumb, that there are no fixed rules or formulas to guide courts or commissions, that determination of value as a rate base is matter of judgment and discretion in each case, Minnesota Rate Cares, 230 U. S. 352, 434, that the statement has come to be believed by reason in part of its much repetition. It is usually accepted as axiomatic. The glorious uncertainty resulting from such an admission will continue so long as judgments of one man or set of men …
Labor And The Law In The Public Utility Field, George Jarvis Thompson
Labor And The Law In The Public Utility Field, George Jarvis Thompson
Michigan Law Review
To the cynical this title may suggest a rhetorical antithesis, and the average citizen cannot but be a bit cynical as a result of his observation and experience of the actuality of the failure of the law to function for the preservation of the continuity of these essential public services in the frequently recurring outbreaks between organized capital and organized labor. In a great measure, he has only himself to blame for this unfortunate condition. He lent ear to the vote-seeking politician and to the propaganda of the interested parties, taking sides with one or the other without thought of …

Michigan Law Review
The plight of the public utilities following the World War has been shouted in a babel of demands for increased rates from one and all. The public has turned a doubting or hostile ear to these demands, and the utilities have overwhelmed the utility commissions with a vast mass of evidence to prove their case. None seem to have been harder hit than the electric railways. Some have ceased to operate, automobiles have already made deep cuts in their revenues, and there are not wanting those who predict that the electric railways, operating on fixed tracks, are already out of …

Michigan Law Review
Public Utility Valuations and Rates - In comparing the reports of the public utility commissions with the decisions of the courts on questions of valuation of public utilities, nothing is more striking than this-that as time goes on the commissions are growingly impatient of the cost of reproduction theory, while the courts still insist there is no inflexible method of fixing value, but continue to prefer largely figures as to supposed reproduction cost. This attitude of the commissions is remarkable in view of the fact that every finding may be carried to the courts for review and possible reversal. The …

Public Utilities—Franchise Rates As Affected By The World War, Edwin C. Goddard
Public Utilities—Franchise Rates As Affected By The World War, Edwin C. Goddard
Articles
The economic convulsions due to the World War are abundantly reflected in the relations between the public and their public utilities operating under franchises fixing rates for service. The enormous rise in cost of labor and materials has, in many cases, so reduced the net income of such utilities as to make it a negative quantity at existing franchise rates. The utilities are crying to be saved from bankruptcy, but the unfortunate suspicion bred by past dealings of many such companies has made the public skeptical, and perhaps in many cases entirely unreasonable. In some cases plain selfishness may explain …
Public Utility Valuation - Cost Of Reproduction Theory And The World War, Edwin C. Goddard
Public Utility Valuation - Cost Of Reproduction Theory And The World War, Edwin C. Goddard
Articles
The very grave objections to the cost-of-reproduction theory of valuation of public utilities was pointed out at large in 15 MICH. L. REV. 205. The violent price changes following the World War have greatly increased the weight of these objections to calling anything a base which rests on such uncertainties and fluctuations as cost-of-reproduction. A base should be stable, but this has the stability Of a flying machine. There had been a rising curve of costs from 1893 to 1916, but since that date the rise has been almost vertical. The public utilities by- the thousands desire to take advantage …

Public Utility Valuation - Going-Concern Value In Rate Making, Edwin C. Goddard
Articles
What is the effect of a city ordinance which proposes to a public utility company the terms on which it may dispose of its product to the users, but which is rejected by the company? As to a company not yet doing business it is clear that the ordinance when rejected becomes a mere legal nullity. It never was more than an offer that might ripen into a binding contract by acceptance. That it is by no means a nullity as to a utility actually operating in the city after the expiration of its franchise and as a mere tenant …

EVERY consideration of valuation of a public utility, whether for the purpose of condemnation for purchase or as a basis for fixing rates or permitting the issue of stock or bonds, must start from Sinyth v. Ames, and the rule therein laid down by HARLAN, J., at page 546: "We hold, however, that the basis of all calculations as to the reasonableness of rates to be charged by a corporation maintaining a highway under legislative sanction must be the fair value of the property being used by it for the convenience of the public. And in order to ascertain that …

Liability Of Water Companies For Losses By Fire In Actions Of Tort, Ralph W. Aigler
Liability Of Water Companies For Losses By Fire In Actions Of Tort, Ralph W. Aigler
Articles
In Fisher v. Greensboro Water Supply Company, 128 N. C. 375, it was held that the defendant water company was liable in damages in an action of tort for negligent failure to furnish sufficient water pressure in the mains of the city, by reason of which negligence the plaintiff's house was burned. The only duty on the part of the defendant to furnish water grew out of a contract made by the company with the city and the fact that the defendant had entered upon the business of supplying water pursuant to such contract.
Some Questions In Connection With State Rate Regulation, Guy A. Miller
Some Questions In Connection With State Rate Regulation, Guy A. Miller
Michigan Law Review
There are probably few questions of greater interest, both present and future, than those which concern the relations between corporations performing the so-called public services on the one hand, and their immediate patrons and the general public on the other. These questions relate to the quality and safety of the services rendered, to the rights of all members of the public to receive service without discrimination, and to the charges which may be exacted for those services. To a great extent they involve matters of public policy and economics, rather than those which are strictly legal in nature, while even …
