Ot n- Far-Reaching Statute Would Provide for Creation of Body to Set Up State Owned Power System ' By CLATTO.N V. BERN HARD BALEM, Ore., Oct. 39. (AP)! The bill with the purpose of putting the state of Oregon Into the power busl nes, proposed for adoption by the people November 8, has recleved more attention in the press and on the platform over the state than perhaps any other measure to be voted upon The far-reaching statute covers ill sections and provides generally for the creation of a commission with authority to provide electrto energy for all sections under a publicly owned system, Gives Wide Power Among the major provisions of the bill, after election of a oommlscJon of three men to replace the present bydro-electrio commission, would be giving the commission the right to 'do all things" Including, but not limited to: Purchase electric energy from Bon neville dam or other sources; to ob tain building of transmission lines from the United States or to build them; acquire and develop water power and nydro-electrlo energy sep arately or with the federal govern ment or other states; distribute, sell or dispose of it at cost; to obtain property . by purchase, lease, or by right of eminent domain; to- fix rates and charges; to develop a super-power, district In Oregon; to place upon the ballot authorization for sale of bonds up to 2 per cent of the total assessed valuation and to borrow from the federal government, The measure Is supported by the State Grange and the State Federa tion of Labor to "assure reduced rates for power, and to "bring In dustries Into the state under a law giving tho best legislation for public use and ownership of water power of any state In the union." Propo nents contend that If the federal government does not butld trans mission lines from Bonneville dam the act would make It possible for the state to take advantage of the energy developed. tt lit ties oppose The measure Is being bitterly fought by the Oregon Business & In vestors, Inc., of Portland and the private utility companies. Those op posed contend the bill Is another "attempt to nut the home owners and taxpayers in the power buslnesa at their own expense under a politi cal board." They hold the bill per mits, by a vote of the people. Issu ance ' of 18,000,000 bonds, and by amendment to the law could raise the bond Issue proposal to $54,000,000. A negative vote Is urged by them because "'Oregon's bonded Indebted ness Is one rt the highest per capita In the nation," end by taking away private utility companies the tax bur den of the rest of the state would be raised by 42,600,000, the amount now being paid by these companies A almtlar measure was defeated by the voters In 1934.

Without ever thinking of turn ing on heat, or the possjbility of forgetting to turn it off again? Continuous hot water, when fur nace fires are out? We say "luxury", but it's the wrong word. Continuous hot water is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity, and the cost of having it is no longer on the luxury level. Unless you have looted into it, you will be surprised to learn how low the special heating rates and the modern heat conserving water heaters make the monthly cost of continuous hot water much less than you had imagined. These modern heaters sur round the actual water tank with a thick layer of insulation, so that the application of only a small amount of heat keeps the water piping hot for hours at a time, as in a Thermos bottle.
