A window into early 20th‑century energy history and industry reporting. This collection, drawn from Pacific Service Magazine’s Volume XIV, June 1922 issue, showcases the era’s debates, people, and projects surrounding the electric and gas utilities that powered communities.
Inside you’ll find a mix of sharp policy discussion, industry news, and firsthand accounts from the field. Read about the push and pull of state energy policy, updates from the Pacific Gas and Electric Company, and profiles of division managers and staff who kept the lights and gas flowing. The issue also features historical pieces, editorials, and notes on employee associations that illuminate how a large utility framed its role in society during a period of rapid growth and change.
Ideal for readers of industrial history, power and gas industry enthusiasts, and anyone curious about how early energy companies documented their work and opinions.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a thorough analysis of the California Water and Power Act, exploring its ramifications on government involvement in business and the soundness of the act itself. The author argues that government entities should not be involved in business and that the act, if passed, would allow for increased taxes, decreased services, and an overall loss in revenue for California. The author fears that the act would give unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats too much power and would lead to California becoming like North Dakota, which became insolvent after similar legislation was passed there. Despite California's successful public power system, the author warns of the dangers of government overreach and provides ample evidence to support their claims.
