Download or read book Municipal Ownership in Great Britain (Classic Reprint) written by Hugo Richard Meyer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Ownership in Great Britain This book is the second of a series of four books which will give the results of the authors examination of the actual working, in important instances, of the public regulation and the government ownership and operation of the so-called public service industries: the railway, the telegraph, the street railway, the electric light, the electric power plant, and the telephone. The investigations in question have been carried on since the fall of 1892, and they have covered the United States, Great Britain, Germany, and Australia. The books embodying the results of the investigations will follow each other in quick succession. But that does not mean that they are in any way hasty productions. It has been the authors policy to delay publication until he had covered the entire field, because he desired to put at the disposal of the public the means of comparing the experience of several countries in the various kinds of experiments, without long intervals between the successive books setting forth that experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Government in Great Britain In the present volume I have sought to give such an account of the working of municipal institu tions in Great Britain as would supply the infor mation that American readers might find most suggestive and useful for their purposes. A second volume will treat, somewhat similarly, of municipal government in the chief countries of Continental Europe. The British system and its developments, particularly in the great manufacturing and com mercial towns, would seem to be worthy of the practical attention of our ambitious American cities of corresponding rank as regards population and commercial importance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Ownership: Four Lectures Delivered at Harvard University 1907 Had this course of lectures been delivered in England, "Municipal Trade" would probably have been selected as the descriptive title; because these words would best have brought to the minds of Englishmen the range of the subjects to be dealt with. Municipal trade is, however, an ill-selected phrase; for it focuses the mind too exclusively on questions connected with profit and loss. When I had the honour to receive an invitation to deliver a course of lectures in the United States, in order to indicate their scope, I decided to entitle them "Municipal Ownership."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Ownership Surely and steadily throughout the world, municipal ownership is winning its way. More than a half century of experience of every conceivable form and under all sorts of conditions has put the matter beyond the realm of theory and experiment in all of the older countries. Even in the United States, and especially in recent years, it is rapidly gaining ground. And in this, as in all matters, it is practical experience that carries more weight than all the other arguments. Whatever else may be said against municipal ownership, it is pretty hard to meet the argument drawn from practical experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dangers of Municipal Trading This book discusses a question of great public concern on both sides of the Atlantic. Its aim is to give a brief history of Municipal Ownership (or Trading) in Great Britain, and to set out certain serious aspects of the municipal position in that country which have arisen consequent upon an indiscriminate pursuit of the system, with a view of indicating the probable effect of the extension of a similar method of conducting public utilities in the United States. This method is generally known in England as Municipal Trading and throughout this volume the two terms Municipal Ownership and Municipal Trading should be understood to mean one and the same thing. It has been recognized by thoughtful men that an attempt should be made to bring together, in a volume not too expansive or profound for popular reading, some of the facts and arguments used by the opponents of Municipal Trading in England.

Private Corporations: With Legal and Editorial Opinions, Tables and Cost of Lights as Furnished by Private Companies and Municipal Plants, With List of Municipal Plants That Have Been Sold or Abandoned The United States Post Office is often cited as an illustration of the success of Government Ownership. And its advocates think that they have answered all objections to such ownership when they proudly pomt to the post office and triumphantly say, is not that great enterprise an example of what the government can do in the way of managing a great business institution for the benefit of the people. They fail to show that as a busi ness enterprise it is a losing one; that it never pays expenses and the last report shows a loss of Any corporation managed as it is managed would end in bankruptcy. Instead of being an argument in favor of government ownership, it is a warning against it. Where would the benefits of the post office be were it not for the aid of private corporations who transport and deliver the mails, the most important part of the whole process. This is not done by the government, but by private capital representing millions of money. The power of the post office department has been used asa vast political machine for rewarding friends, and the Boston Transcript states that the month preceding the presidential election the greatest percentage of re movals was made of any month for four years, whole lines were stripped of their experienced men, and the creatures of politicians were put in their places.
