Letters to the editor For KuhsigssSd -PUDs One reason why Morrow County voters should elect Ted Kulongoski United States sen ator this year is because he favors establishment of people's utility districts. PUD's feature several advan tages over electric service from a private power comp any. When going into business, a PUD issues revenue bonds to purchase facilities of the incumbent power company. Then part of your electric bill every month goes for retiring these bonds. This amount is becoming equity in property, that will eventually belong entirely to you. Retaining the power company means you'll never end up owning any part of anything. All profits are kept at home and used for system improve ments, such as underground wiring. None end up getting paid to eastern stockholders. Money for purchase of equip ment may be borrowed at lower interest rates. Area residents have more voice in deciding where to place sub stations, vehicle service gar ages and material storage yards. Since PUD's are consumer owned, they qualify as prefer ence customers for power from the United States Col umbia River System. Outputs of 30 dams are now fed into the USCRS grid for distribution.
