In fact. 3,388 of your neighbors in Oregon are members of the Union Pacific family. Union Pacific is indeed an important contributor to Oregon's economy, through the wages paid to employees, vast sums spent for equipment and supplies, and through the taxes paid by the railroad. In fact, in many instances it has been due to the taxes paid by the railroad that needed civic improvements have been possible: new school buildings and teachers' salaries, fire sta tions. hospitals — where the "U P." has borne a big share of the cost through its taxes. Otherwise, of course, there would have been an additional burden on local taxpayers. We re proud of our employees — your “good neighbors” — and we re proud to be a vital factor in the growth and development of Oregon. For Home Service Call 372-3347 Pharmacy RMOMt >?» IM?
