facts and Figures From Taxpayers'
, Angle Presented by Young and Aird . '
On Proposed 7-County Utility Setup
, MONMOUTH F. H. Young, manager of the Oregon
Business and Investors' association, with offices in Portland,
spoke to the Men's Luncheon club here, Tuesday. He was in
troduced by H. W. Morlan, local merchant, with whom Young
worked extensively in 1932 helping defeat the proposed phy
sical merger of Oregon's higher institutions of learning.
Young presented facts andO
Alaskan Nurses

figures affecting the taxpayers
on the proposed utility district
measure which H to be voted
on at a special election April
8. Counties, of which parts are
included In the proposed PUD
are: Clatsop, Columbia, Washing
ton, Clackamas, Yamhill. Polk
and Lincoln. Sponsors propose to
organise this hug arer, which
is as large in square miles as
the state of Delawarej Into a
public utility project. Part of
the land la contiguous and other
parts are widely separated by
the coast range mountains.
Challenges Regulation
In the eTent of its formation
this. FUD would be managed by
a board of five directors one
from Polk county and would
not ba regulated by the Federal
Power commission; or by the
state of Oregon through Its pub
lic utilities' commission, as to
rates, charges or practices. Young
said, cuoting Judge Wallace on
the latter facts.
The five directors need not be
taxpayers, nor have electrical
knowledge. They would, by law,
be permitted to collect $10 per
day each for services, plus ex
penses. This board of directors
would hare the right to establish
any rate that it sees fit in any
part of the district. The rates,
as established, need not be uni
form. They can have one rate
in one county and another rate in
another country or even In the
same county they can establish
different rates.
Ask Source of Money
The first question confronting
this board of directors, Young
stated, would be "Where are we
going to get the money to be
gin PCD operations?"
He explained that there are
two ways in which the money
can be raised: (1) by taxation;
(2) by issuance of bonds. Un
der the law a bond issue up to
10 per cent of the assessed
value of the property in the dis
trict can be voted. By counties,
such a bond issue, resolved into
figures would be: Clatsop $1,
136.801; Columbia, $1,043,486;
Washington, $1,640,390; Y a m
hill, $1,544,817; Clackamas, $3,
099,327; Polk. $1,016,719, and
Lincoln, $250,092.
This combined totai of nearly
$10,000,000 of bonds would be.
if they are sold, a mortpage on
the property in the PUD. put
there to start the utility district
scheme into activity.
; Vote Is by Units
It is up to tie peop'e In
the counties, and in the cities,
to settle whether or not they
are going to participate. A tounty
can vote itself out; and a city
can vote itself out, be said.
Young said one consideration
that can't ba overlooked : in the
enormous cost of building trans
mission lines for power into re
mote,, sparsely settled areas,
where revenue will be low.
To build competing lines, or
otherwise prepare to give as good
and efficient service as the pres
ent power companies now furnish
in this proposed PUD t rea, would
costat least $6,000,000, Young
explained. In order to extend the
service and serve more consum
ers, more money will be needed,
because more lines will have to
be , built.
He called attention to Polk
county's avoidance of bonded
debt, in which all its taxpayers
have rejoiced. The bonded in
debtedness of Monmouth, today,
is more than $99,000. a sum ex
ceeding that of any other city
in Polk, on a smaller assessed
valuation than either Dallas or
Independence.
Col. Aird Speaker
Tuesday night Monmc th citi
zens and many farmers from its
adjacent communities, '! tened to
a calm, well balanced discussion
of the taxpayer's side rf the pro
posed PUD by Colonel William
A. Aird of Clackamas county.
He was introduced by C. F. Gil
lette, city attorney of Monmouth.
Aird stated. in part:
"If you vote yourself in, you're
in, at least for the period your
bonds will run, which may be
30 years. Why rush into this
thin in a hurry? Vre have
until 1941 to avail ourselves of
Bonneville power. Let's take
time to inform ourselves, and not
leap without looking carefully."
The cost of clearing right-of-way,
alone, is going to be a huge
and costly -problem in the rough,
mountain sections. In c e sector
of Clatsop county, whic'. Is-to be
serviced, the co3t of clearing
right-of-way has been estimated
to be $1,000 per mile. This work
must precede the actual setting
of poles and stringing of wire.
Only about.10 or H per cent
of the consumer's cost f power
is for generating the power. The
long end of the cost--85 to 90
per cent is in getting it to the
homes, he said
