Excerpt from Re Murray Report on Electric Utilities, 1922

From an explanation presented in the report it is learned that it was prepared by a United States firm of consulting engineers - Mr. W. S. Murray and Mr. Henry Flood, J r. - acting under instructions from the National Electric Light Association through which organization the report has been distributed to the public. The report itself is signed by W. S. Murray, who personally received instructions from the National Electric Light Association. This Association is antagonistic to public ownership. Of himself, Mr. Murray, in his report says, I have never subscribed to governmental ownership of electric utilities in the United States.

In the introductory portion of his report Mr. Murray records that he received a commission from the National Electric Light Association, to investigate and report on the electric utility systems as operating in the United States and by the hydro-electric Power Commission of Ontario. Mr. Mur ray also states: that the electric utility officials in the States were very much at sea regarding the facts of the hydro-electric Power Commission's policies and operations, and that consequently it is his desire to set forth the facts so that they would be correctly interpreted beyond peradventure of doubt.

The results of Mr. Murray's efforts have been published and a large and widespread distribution of his report has been made throughout both the United States and the Dominion of Canada.
