In reply to a request from
Commissioner ot Public 1'tltltles
Ralph C. Clyd of Portland con
cerning the details ot the gross
franchise tax being collected by
the city of Klamath Falls from
four utilities. Mayor W. B. Ma
honey described the process the
city went through In obtaining
the city ordinance In taxing the
utilities here.
Clyde declared he waa Inter
ested In securing a similar tax
for Portland and asked tor ad
vice concerning th ralsa In
rates or lowering of wages to
absorb th tax.
In reply, Mahoney Informed
that th ordlnanc waa Intro
duced aa a rovenu measure
only with th franchise question
not being Involved. He ex
plained that the collection ot
the lax did not cause an In
crease in ratea aa It could not
unless the ordinance Itaelf pro
vided auch a provision. Befor
this could be dotie, Mshoney ex
plained the utlllttea would b re
quired to make application to
the stat commissioner of utilities.
Muhoney stated his roason for
asking a lax was due to the fact
the utilities were enjoying a
monopoly such ss no other line
of business enjoys. His letter
In part, stated:
"Twenty years ago th people
ot Klamath Falls were disillu
sioned by the isms propaganda
and were told that any taxes
collected from th utilities would
mean an Increase In ratea. Noth
ing was done. Th 20 years
have passed and the asm high
rates set up continue to exist to
day. In the meantime th city
treasurer has been deprived of
this necessary revenue. In other
words. If thla tax had been Im
posed then, our taxpayera would
have benefited by some $200.
