rs THAT IN THE RULE BOOK?"".

Whether its football or business, Americans expect fair play
all down the line.
In football, the referee is there to e. that the game is
PLAYED according to the rules. But he's not supposed to run
with the ball. In business, the referee is the government, which
establishes regulations for fair practices.
But when government goes into business and completes with
its own citizens, the American tradition of fair play is set
aside. The referee then becomes a player. and he enjoys advan-
tages that are denied to all the other players in the game.
Take aforementioned electric power systems. for example.
They pay little or no taxes. When hey need money, they call
on the [. s. Treasury and get it at little OF no interest. If they
have losses. why worry? You taxpayers take care of that.
Busnessmanaged power systems, on the other hand. do
not have these special privileges. They pay their full share Of
taxes, pay fan interest ON any loans.
Fortunately for YOU and your tax bill. over 500 of all the
electric power in this country is produced by taxpaying, self
supporting electric companies, owned and operated by several
million folks like YOU.
And how we'll are these companies doing their job?
Electricity is still available at low pre-war prices. There
was enough to meet even the gigantic demands of wal. And there
will be plenty to give YOU greater comfort and convenience in
the electric living of the postwar world.
