A BAD
" V House bill 227 proposes . to ; tax hydro-electric power in
Oregon 50 cerit3 a kilowatt a year ' .; '.:- .
- r And it is a bad bill, !-.. i
- -WhatOfegon needs is cheaper electric power, and this is
not the way to' get it. The ' way; to get it is to make its
- development attractive to the people of enterprise able", t6
; assemble or control the capital necessary to harness it to the
" wheels of industry. This bill would do this: .... .-.. '
- i Impose an additional tax on an industry already carrying
more i than its share of .taxes--- .t'. ,'.,.; -' ; "
- '. llake it more difficult to attract capital to the state or
.hold capital liere; for; itsvdevelopment----vj r 1 ;
; j .Tend to cause power company customers to pay:a portion.
of the taxes of pther people throygh. higher rates for eFectrii
city, made necessary to t pay . increased taxation"" of power
companies " r ,,;vj;r
4. i Put a heavier tax on power companies who have developed
, Oregon "power sUes, compared with i those which have devel
' oped such sites in Washington, Idaho' and Calif ornia'and sell
their power in Oregon ' " . ' ,
s' I Tend to develop steam power, plants instead ; of water
power plants, because of increased taxation on hydro-electric
plants. ( ' . ir - ' '
;OTie Oregon electric company now pays in taxes 14 per
cent of Its entire gross revenue. -; Another pays 17 per cent of
the- total tax of a single county. The! average is nine ' and
four-tenths per cent-- t - - .
'And that is enough; more. than enough. , --3
The development of more .water power plants means more
and cheaper electric energy for industries.! More industries
is the economic need of Oregon, above any other one thing. ' .
The legislature will be doing
- "inz laws to encourage the development; of 'our wateit; power
resources, x ieir iuu qeveiopment wouia mean nunareas oi
millions in additional taxable property "in Oregon."
House bill 227 is a bad bill.' It, proposes a backward step.
