WHAT'S THE
m itwuswv
2. AND IT PAYS TAXES
"Best of all, this power industry carries a big
share of our tax load ... it paid nearly $900,000
last year. In one county here its taxes would run
all the schools, in another it pays enough taxes
to maintain half the county roads.
3. EMPLOYS 818 PEOPLE
"The power company payroll is one of the stead
iest in the country. The company pays good
wages and gives its employees a square deal. Why,
some of our most active and useful citizens work
for Pacific Power & Light Company.
1. SEE THAT SUBSTATION?
"Well, those transformers and the power lines
on our streets cost more than any building in
town. For Pacific Power & Light Company is one
of the very largest investors in this territory. In
fact the company has put $46,000,000 of capital
into the development of the Pacific Northwest.
4. FURNISHES CHEAP POWER
"Like every other successful American industry,
the power company is constantly reducing the
price of its product as it develops new markets
and improved methods. Today the average kilowatt-hour
used in our homes costs only half what
it did 14 years ago, and service is a lot better, too.
"We need more of these progressive and self
supporting industries like Pacific Power & Light
Company to build up our great Northwest."
