THIS $1,313,000 tax bill was more than one-third
greater than we were called upon to pay in 1940 —
which makes the 19% drop in the average price
of electricity all the more significant.
OUR TAXES IN 1943 reached an all-time high of
>1,313,000. W e paid back to the public, in the
form of taxes, almost as much as was paid to
all the men and women who have invested their
money in the development of this business.
We’re proud of the fact that in 1943 PP&L met fully the electric
service needs of our ill,365 customers in the two great states
of Washington and Oregon.
We’re proud of the 743 men and women of the PP&L organiza
tion who managed to keep your electric service running smooth
ly and dependably throughout 1943 in spite of wartime problems.
We’re proud of the 112 PP&L men and women who are away
in the service of their country—<nd we pledge ourselves to Rfcep
right on working and fighting to preserve for them at home the
freedom and opportunity they are fighting, for overseas.

were not achieved at public expense!
UNCLE SAM GOT >726.00«, or more than 55%. of
these taxes. This money, along with the Federal
taxes paid by you and your neighbors, goes to
help meet the urgent needs of a nation at war.
