Kentucky and Virginia both have towns culled Ordinary. Last year, America's business managed electric companies paid six hundred and twenty million dollars in taxes 23 cents out of every dollar they took in and 15 cents of that went for federal taxes to help win the war.

And they're proud of the busi ness management that makes it possible. Certainly it calls for a finely developed sense of busi ness skill, a sound and practical knowledge of business methods, to do what America's business managed electric com panies have done.
