Amend Proposal
On Salary Plan
. Norfolk, Va. 4U.R) Major
league players, turned down in
their bid for a minimum salary
of $7,200, are ready to suggest
the same thing again but with
an important amendment.
Ted Kluszewski, player rep
resentative of the Cincinnati
Redlegs, disclosed Wednesday
that the players' new suggestion
shapes up this way:
Owners will be permitted to
sign players in the beginning of
the season for a $6,000 minimum,
the figure provided for in the
current rules. But players who
stick with the team after the
May 15 "cut-down date," when
each team must reduce its roster
to 25 men, must be boosted to
$7,200.
The players intend, to present
this plan to the club owners at
the annual meeting during the
All-Star game period in July at
Milwaukee. The plan was adopt
ed by the player representatives
at their meeting in Cincinnati on
Tuesday.

The cost of good
government is
everybody's business
When it comes to service, we at COPCO think in terms of people, whether
we're building electric power plants or paying taxes. Neither our cus
tomers nor the communities in which we live and operate are statistics
to us. As a result, we are as concerned about good local government as
our neighbors and willingly assume our share of the upkeep.
For the fiscal year 1954-55, COPCO's property tax bills in thirteen
counties of Oregon and California totaled $1,840,101. This amounted to
$187,642 more than in the previous year. Our future share of the tax load
will be still larger, since our over-all tax base is constantly expanding. At
the same time, our company paid its proportionate share of state and
federal taxes.
Government is everybody's business and must begin at the local level
if it is to be truly of the people. In partnership with those we serve,
COPCO will continue to contribute to the progress of our communities
... for better highways, better schools, civic improvement projects and
more electric power for a better life for alL
