Back of previous public commitments bv
private companies seeking Bonneville contracts
to pass on savings made possible bv resale ot
cheap Bonneville power, now stands the state
of Oregon.
Ormond R Bean public utilities commission
er of Oregon, expresses the state s position
thus:
The state is particularly interested in
having all savings passed on to the consumer
of electric power, and the department of
public utilities is determined to see that this
is carried out."
Bean made it clear in his declaration of policy
that the utilities commission has no control over
Bonneville s wholesale contracts or the retail
rates of publicly owned distributors but when
it comes to resale by private companies the
commission has jurisdiction and all savings
must be passed on to the consumer in rural as
well as urban districts.
The state will also
co-operate. Bean said.
Thus assured. Oregon people, who buv
approximately $20,000.000 worth of electricity
annually, may expect real rate reductions when
pending Bonneville contracts are signed
Sav

DEATH A N D TAXES
Few who do not feel the American Institute
of Public Opinion has given us the most occur
ate picture ot public sentiment on important
questions arising in the American mind. Their
hand on the pulse of the nation permits them
to give us reports of truth and fact. They
found that a survey revealed that 25‘ < of
people questioned, declared they paid no taxes!
There arc manv other folks who feel it thev do
not own property or in too low an income group,
they are tax free. W h a t about the purchase
of autos, gasoline, liquor or cigarettes? There
is money taken for social security and some
states impose a food tax
W e should be more
keen regarding taxation. It is one of the most
important questions of the present. The only
man free ot taxation is the man who spends no
money and lives on the charity of others.
