Added New Stockholders
The Portland Kaihvay, Light
nnd Power Company bus added
more thnn 2100 new .stockholders
to itH lists during tho present earn
paign of selling its new issue of 7
per cent prior preference stock
to its employes, customers, pat
rons and the general public under
what is known as the "Home
Ownership" plan. The new
shareholders represent virtually
every one of tho nearly -10 com
munities in which the big public
utility operates nnd consist of
men nnd women in nlmost every
walk of life. Tho gratifying suc
cess of the new plan of financing
its needs, according to company
officials, will enable tho big util
ity to carry out extensive im
provement and betterment plans
for the coming season, including
substantial headway ontlie gigan
tic $10,000,000 Oak Grove hydro
electric development which, when
completed, will add 80,000 more
horsepower to tho present facili
ties of the company.
"This new plan of home financ
ing," declared President Krauklin
T. Griffith, "has proved exceed
ingly popular with many public
utility corporations throughout
th country that have needed
large additional sums of cupital
funds to keep pace with the grow
ing demands on their facilities.
It is a well known fact that the
greatest need of the public utility
industry at the present time is
new capital for the const met ion
of additional generating equip
ment, trackage, overhead con
struction, etc., so that plant facil
ities may be equal to the demands
made upon them. This company
needs millions of dollars for that
purpose each year. Our number
of light and power customers has
increased 51 per cent in the last

t Peninsula Security Company t
eight years and our production
of electric energy has increased
over 01 per cent in the same pe
riod. These growing demands
must be met, and we believe it to
be to the advantage of all concern
ed that this additional capital be
secured from Oregon investors, as
it will bo invested m a local in
dustry in which nil the public is
interested either directly or indi
rectly. With tlint thought in mind
we arc now offering our employ
es, customers, patrons nnd the
general public on opportunity to
utilize the company as a means
of profitable investment and also
as n medium for saving by our
partial payment piau. All the
proceeds from the sale of our 7
per cent prior preference stock
will be put to work right here in
needed improvements and exten
sions as well as in the big new de
velopment on the Uper Clackamas
river where we hope to be able
to furnish steady employment to
a largo force of men for an indef
inite period. This large under
taking should help materially to
reduce the aeutcness of the pres
ent unemployment situation in
ease our "Homo Ownership"
plan continues with the same de
gree of success with which it has
progressed so far."

Some of his hearers have remem
bered his pronouncements for

If you think you arc good look

for you may get tho prize. He-ported.
The Gleaners' Sunday school
class of Pioneer M. 15. S .S. met.
at the home of Mrs. A. H. Mulliu
on Allegheny street Friday even
ing. Ah a result of each member
having earned a dollar in an un
usual way, $121 were ndded to
tJie treasury nnd many unique
pieces of poetry were rend giv
ing the information as to how the
dollar was earned. The most
popular unusual method seemed
to have been by pressing hubby's
trousers, which accounts for the
unusually trim appearance of
some of the good citizens of St.
Johns, evidently. Games and
refreshments followed the short
business meeting.
