• Early next month you will
receive a check like this for your
share of a $300,000 “rate dividend’’
to all PP&L electric customers. .The
amount of your dividend will be
approximately one-half of your aver
age ‘monthly electric bill— and it
will be paid by check and not merely
a credit on your next bill.
We are taking this unusual step
because there is an imu&ual condi
tion to be dealt with. The war is
causing an abnormal demand for
electricity at many pl&ees on the
PP&L system. Just as a few ex
amples, we are serving new war
industries, commercial businesses,
a ir fields, tr a in in g qam ps, naval
bases and supply depots.
And besides serving electricity to
all our regular customers, PP&L has
been called upon to furnish electric-

ity to a sudden influx of new families
in the neighborhood of all these war-
caused activities. All this has result
ed in an unusual increase in our total
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 ft lasts. The question has been
I “W hat is a sound way of distribu
ting these benefits?”
After thorough investigation, the
W ashington Department of Public
Service and the Oregon Public Utili
ties Commissioner have approved
this “rate dividend^’ plan as a fair
and practical way to meet a war
time situation.
The check you receive as your
share of this $300,000 customer-divi
dend will reduce further the cost you
pay for electricity—which already
is only about half national average.

“ The war stories I like best, Judge, are
the ones by the special writers overseas
who live right with our troops. They give
us a better idea o f how our men react
to things going on over there and back
here a t home.”
“ I agree with you, Sam. I never miss one*
of those stones in the papers or magazines.
And there’s one thing those writers seem to
agree on no matter where they are stationed
with our m en ...a n d that is th at the men
who have left their homes and families to go
away and fight this war don’t want to come
back and find th at prohibition has been put
over on them while they were aw ay. . . either
nationally or locally. T hey have heard about
the attem pts being made and they resent
it bitterly.*
“ I agree with them, Judge, even though
I don’t happen to drink myself. Further
more, I don’t think it ’s fair for us at home
to be making any major changes while
10,000,000 o f our fighting men are away and
have no chance to express their opinions.”
It was BUSINESS MANAGEMENT that made these reductions in your electric
rates, without calling on the public treasury for help. In fact, PPftL has paid con
stantly increasing u s e s in support of Govermysat while rates were being reduced.
