a- state in the union but have a public utility commission empowered by law to control the service and rates of cor- of the state Governor Dunne's subject was The Growth of Public Control of Utilities In the course of his address he re- viewed the history of state control of utilities beginning with New York and Wisconsin the first states to adopt such laws in 1909 and carrying the story down to the present year when Illinois Missouri Maine Col- West Virginia Indiana and Montana created public utility com- missions Wisconsin Law Standard The Wisconsin law explained the governor has been the guide for most of the states including Illinois and has been pronounced by many of the advanced thinkers of the day as the best and fairest law yet enacted for the control of public utilities Gov Dunne then explained his for the home rule clause of the Illinois law which was eliminated in the final draft and which would have Chicago absolute control of the ties within her limits In conclusion the governor If public control fail and I do not believe it will then the only alternative left is public ownership and operation I am pleased today that after a struggle of eight years I have had the satisfaction of placing my signature to a law that gives Illinois the right to own and operate all of its public utilities and even to purchase the product such utilities at wholesale and sell it to
