the government became Interested in
the price* and profits of public ser-
vice corporations. Until then it was
considered the business of each cor-
poration to set its prices as high as
it pleased, and let supply and demand,
through competition, set the pri-e to
the public. Monopolies and trusts noon
made price and profit control nec-
esaary. and then came some regula-
tion.
During the war this authority wa*

ply, and the government, for Its
