Y., which was begun in 1935. X. This authorization is an important feature of a post-war expansion program laid out by this company, calling for expenditures of approxi¬ mately $120,000,000 in the next five years. The expansion program will add about 350,000 Kilowatts to Edison System generating capacity, increasing it over all about 15%, will enlarge gas and steam produc<» tion facilities and will reinforce and extend distribution systems for electric, gas and steam services, particularly electric lines in districts of anticipated rapid growth, such as midtown Manhattan, Queens and Westchester County, N. Y. Expansion and replacement of the distribution systems for the three services will require the expenditures of about $80,000,000 over the five-year period. Of this sum, approxi¬ mately $65,000,000 will be spent for improvements in electric lines. ;• The $22,500,000 expenditure authorized on Nov. 27 for the Water¬ side station covers the purchase of a 50,000 kilowatt topping turbinegenerator and two 60,000 kilowatt . low-pressure turbine-generatorsi i. In order to make space for these new units, installation of which will require approximately three yeas, old and less efficient equipment will be taken out of. the station-wthree turbines of 20,000 kilowatt capacity each and 35 small boilers, each capable.of producing 30,000 pounds of steam an hour, With these units removed, the net increase in the generating-capacity at Waterside because of the new units will be 110,000 kilowatts,, or 25% oi present capacity. Other improve¬ ments at the Waterside station approved Npv. 27, are the erection of new electrical galleries and the installation of four niajor bus sections to take care of expected growth in the electric load in ths Times Square and midtown sections. Also the authorization include^ the construction of two new 30,000 kilowatt tie feeder lines between the Waterside plant and the Hell Gate electric generating station in the Bronx and the rearrangement of existing feeder lines to providft two direct ties between the Waterside plant and the Hudson Avenue generating station in Brooklyn. These projects are designed to increase reliability of service and economy of electric operations. The System's long-distance program contemplates the installation of. a sixth topping turbine-generator- at Waterside, probably by 1950.'

Purpose of the financing was to provide the funds needed by the Province to Bond Donaldsonville, Greensburg, Ky. Although short-term municipal awards in October aggregated $60,653,240, about $58,000,000 of the output represented financing by various local housing authorities. These agencies, incidentally, will very likely be an extremely productive source of business for the long-term capital market in the future. While such agencies finance construction costs of low-rent housing projects on a temporary basis, such indebtedness is usually transformed into permanent form after the facilities have been in operation for a while. As we have pre¬ viously stated, the bulk of short-term municipal financing negotiated during this and earlier years has been for the account of housing authorities throughout the country.
