0Kf MUCH IS
750 more trucks
"Mobility is the key to present day troop move
ments, and the company's annual taxes would
buy 750 army trucks of latest design to trans
port nearly 10,000 troops. (
127 planes
"Taxes paid by Pacific Power & Light would
build 127 planes for use at training fields where
pilots are gaining experience necessary to give
America a strong air defense.
..I'll explain!
Pay for 2500 soldiers
"The $887,690 paid in taxes last year by Pacific
Power & Light Company is just about enough
to pay $30 a month for a whole year to 2500
American boys now being called into military
training camps.
"k And next year we'll pay more
"Along with all other taxpayers, we'll have to
carry an even larger tax load next year to help
pay the bill for national security in a world
at war. If we didn't have to pay these taxes
we could automatically cut electric rates nearly
. one-sixth. But then you and your neighbors
would have transferred to your shoulders the
tax load now carried by our business.
"Lower electric rates resulting merely from tax
exemptions don't help anyone in the long run.
It's the rate reductions you get from a tax-paying
electric system as a result of progressive enter
prise that really count."
