Letter from E. F. Scattergood to Theodore Roosevelt
E. F. Scattergood appreciates Theodore Roosevelt’s work in assuring Los Angeles has an ample and reliable water supply. He sends a report with information on the aqueduct’s power feature for Roosevelt to read before visiting the city. Scattergood discusses the proposed amendments to the city’s charter concerning public utilities and agrees with Roosevelt that private ownership under effective public control is more desirable than universal municipal ownership.
