ABOVE, 13-year-old Randolph C. Ryder turns over a
/ \ spadeful of earth to formalize the start of construction
of PP&L’s newest power plant. Randy was asked to turn over
this important spadeful for three reasons: First, he represents
PP&L's customers of tomorrow for whom much of this ad
ditional power plant capacity is being built. Second, even at
13 years of age, Randy already owns shares in PP&L and
represents the 95,000 shareowners whose invested savings
along with those of the Company’s bondholders help make
possible the good electric service you enjoy. Third, he is a
very special kind of shareholder for his ownership of securities
symbolizes the fact that in this state, minors can now hold the
securities of American business enterprises
The recent passage in Pennsylvania of the Uniform Gifts
to Minors Act opened the way for youngsters to become in
vestors in American industry and to share, from an early age,
in this nation's expanding and dynamic economy as well as
secure a practical and early understanding of the American
economic system.
The fact that people are willing to invest their savings, and
thereby earn a reasonable return, is the means for developing
much of the money with which power plants and power lines
can be built and service supplied to our customers. In the last
decade alone, investors have provided much of the $413
million required for the Company's expansion during those
years. In the next 5 years, an additional $l9B million will be
required. And where will this money come from? Much of it
again must come from people who are willing to invest their
savings in anticipation that the money they put to work will
continue to earn a reasonable wage. Every time you turn an
electric switch, you share in the benefits of their investment.
