Miller and FAST, DEPENDABLE SERVICE BETWEEN Portland — Hermiston — Pendleton LaGrande and Baker BRICK BUILDING WEST OF CREAMERY I. W . GEER A gent Telephone 2391 WATCH THIS MACHINE WORK, < WI MR. DEFENSE TAXPAYER! Busy little electric cutters like this are hum ming at top speed in thousands of factories, slicing out uniforms— tents— tarpaulins— all kinds of cloth goods for the army and navy and the people who do the everyday work at home. The electricity they use isn't a drop in the bucket. It costs practically nothing a day. But let that electricity fail — in A N Y defense plant, big or little—and all work stops. Let the service grow inefficient, and defense production slows up, costs more. Listen, Mr. Taxpayer—YOU pay the national defense bills. You want to keep the best electric service in the world at the lowest cost in the world—the service that private enterprise in vented, created and perfected for Americans! ELECTRICITY ANYWHERE... anytime ...any amount of it! America has 4% times as much electricity as it had in the World War. Three times as much as the Axis nations combined. But what was needed to make the nation’s supply of power completely available, completely efficient, was interconnection. It took brilliant engineering and billions of dollars to trans form the skeleton power map of 1918 to the full-grown inter connected power systems you see on the map of 1940. Now these transmission lines completely serve every major Industrial area of America with a supply of power from many sources, safe from interruption. They increased efficiency, made it possible to utilize a bigger percentage of each plant s output, and reduced costs and rates. That is AMERICAN ENTERPRISE at work! Vi hat we want you to know, Mr. Taxpayer, is that this nation wide American system of power plants, power lines and power SERVICE is fulfilling and can fulfill every demand that can be laid on it by the needs of national defense—and do it better than any other system in the world. And YOU don’t have to dig down in your pocketbook for a single extra tax dollar, or a million or a hundred million extra tax dollars, to pay out for something you already have!
