Efforts Expected to Create
Many New Districts in
Oregon by Next Summer
By Paul W. Harvey, Jr.
Salem, Oct. 27. (AP) Public
power advocates, spurred by
the new people's utility district
law and by the sight of Bon
neville transmission lines pene
trating into Oregon, are launch
ing a general offensive that they
hope will result in the creation
of many PUD s by next sum
mer.
They hope to have elections
next May in several counties,
including Multnomah, Marion,
Clackamas, Benton and several
northwest Oregon counties.
Lane county, with Eugene ex
cluded, will vote early in De
cember. Situation Changed
Most of the counties in which
elections are likely already have
voted overwhelmingly against
PUD'S. The power companies
say this was caused largely by
their arguments that formation
of PUD'S would take large
amounts of utility property off
the tax rolls and that property
owners in the districts would
be subject to assessment to pay
for PUD bonds If the districts
failed to make any money.
But this is all changed now,
and the power companies know
It. A 1939 law provides that
districts shall pay the same
taxes as private utilities, and
that bonds may be pnid out of
revenue earned by the districts.
This blasts the power company
arguments, but the companies
assert that the taxation pro
vision will make It impossible
for districts to peddle power any
cheaper than the utilities now
do.
Point To Eugene
The public power proponents,
however, think the new law
will help them In their sales
arguments. They point also to
the city of Eugene's average
rate of 1.68 cents a kilowatt
hour, one of the lowest in the
nation. The average rates for
Oregon and the United States
are 2.73 and 4.23 cents, re
pectively. They claim the Eugene rate
could be established In almost
any PUD. The companies, how
ever, contend that the Eugene
rate Is low because the market
Is concentrated in s small area.
There now are only three ac
tive PUD's in the state. These
are In Hood River county and
northern Wasco county, both of
which were voted last summer,
and in Tillamook county, voted
six years ago but which never
has operated.
Utilitios Pay Big Tax
Public Utilities Commissioner
Ormond R. Bonn's utility re
port tilts week showed how in
dustry carries much of the
power load and thus enables
residential consumers to have
smaller light bills. Of the
1,000,000,000 kilowatt hours
sold last year In Oregon, 60
percent was bought by com
mercial and Industrial consum
ers while only 30 percent was
used by residential and rural
consumers.
The power companies had a
net operating Income of $7,040,
BR1 during the year, and paid
$3,374,863 In taxes, or 16 per
cent of all their gross revenues.

MINCE MEAT
A Feast Dessert
It Should Be Good
WE are Just is finicky about Mincemeat
as we are with our ground meats. It
must be good. Yes. it has to be even better
than Just "good." It has to be the kind we
ourselves enjoy eating.
That is why we have never sold or used In
our baking mincemeat that sells for less than the
cost of good ingredients used in its making.
That is why we go clear back to Massa
chusetts for mincemeat that has been the mos)
popular in that area for several generations.
It comes In a highly concentrated form and lets
you add your own apples. You don't pay mince
meat price for the lowest priced ingredient
usually abundant in mincemeat. Add your own
1-3 the volume of the mincemeat.
If you like mince pie. here indeed is a real
treat.
