S E arly next m onth you will
receive a check like this for your
share of a $300,000 “rate dividend’’
to all PP& L electric custom ers. T he
am ount of your dividend will be
approxim ately one-half of your aver
age m onthly electric bill — and it
will be paid by check and not m erely
a credit on your next bill.
W e are taking th is unusual step
because there is an unusual- condi
tion to be dealt with. T he war is
causing an abnorm al dem and for

ity to a sudden influx of new families
in the neighborhood of all these war-
caused activities. All this has resu lt
ed in an unusual increase in our to ta l
volume of business.
You and all the other users of our
electric service have a right to share
in the benefits of this extra business
while it lasts. T he question has been
“W hat is a sound way of distribu
ting these benefits?’’
A fter thorough investigation, the
W ashington D epartm ent of Public

this “rate dividend’’ plan as a fair
and practical way to m eet a w ar

T he check you receive as your

pay for electricity — which already
is only about half national average.
