Wilson, Lars Bergsvik and Jim E. Private Ownership the common sense way The great utility, organizations of the United States which have as their business the operation of elec tric and water properties in various communities are supervised by men with years, of experience in that endeavor. And these supervisors, in turn, employ for plant operation and . for every other activity which has to do with the successful oper ation of the properties, men who likewise are skilled ahd experi enced. This assures constant, adequate and economical service.. In contrast wit,h publicly -owned utilities, private operations are in a position to, and do, finance improve ments with comparative ease. If a property requires the expendi ture of a considerable sum of money to meet the growing demands made by the community, it is not neces sary to submit the question to a vote of the electorate and sutler the uncertainty and delay incident to such a procedure, placing the success or failure of the project upon the whim of several thousand people. The private utility goes out, gets the money, makes the improvement and proceeds about its business. How long do you suppose it would have been before the voters of Salem approved the expenditure of tho $264,000 that the Oregon and Washington Water Service Com pany has already spent, plus the ' $300,000 that it is now expending on the new filter plant and other improvements in Salem? Salem needed the improvements that have been made and are being made. The distribution system needed extensions and reinforce ment, and the water supply needed protection. The Oregon -Washington Water Service Company got the money and quietly expended it for the benefit of the City. The privately-owned public utility pays taxes and contributes to the support of the local government to an amazing extent. This is true all over the country and it is particu larly true in Salem where the .Oregon-Washington Water Service Company pays back in taxes at Salem MORE THAN 12c OUT, OF EVERY DOLLAR THAT. IT COLLECTS FROM ALL SOURCES IN SALEM. In addition to this the Oregon Washington Water Service Com pany, and every, other utility in. Salem, contributes to the support of all community activities. A privately-operated utility is,non .political. It employs its assistants, without regard to creed or political preference. Every man stands or falls by his own efforts and each man has an equal opportunity of advancement. The personnel is not changed from "stem to stern" every time the political complexion of the community is changed. Its person nel is constant.
