Hoqie Loan Banks. Financing by government
agencies, which in the past decade reached huge propor¬
tions, disappeared altogether since October, 1941, as a
new policy put into effect by the Treasury at that time
provides for the monetary needs of these agencies to be
taken care of, during the emergency at least, by direct
United States Treasury issues instead of by the sale of
their own guaranteed obligations.
The total volume brought out during 1947 by entities
grouped under this classification aggregated $661,215,00(1

telephones in December and the
handling of 27,200,000 calls on Dec. 29 set new highs in a year
of
record-breaking
activity
for
this company,
according
to
Carl
Whitmcre, Fresident, in a year-end report issued on Jan. 12.
The
year s
increase in telephones was some 415,000 bringing the
total served by the company in its st«te-wide territory to more than
4,000,000 at the close of the year.
"Although new applications for
telephone service kept pouring in," Mr. Whitmore stated, "we were
able to
reduce the waiting list from 430,000 to 276,000."
While calls averaged about 20,0o0.000 a day,
a figure 8%
higher
than in
1946 and nearly 50%
above prewar years, new records were
set
four
times
dbring the year,
each topping the previous high,
on
Fob.
21, Nov. 24, Dec. 26,
the day of the- snow storm in New
York City
and finally on Dec. 29.
Tno city contributed 18,321,809
calls to
the company total handled on that record-breaking day.
A
total of $155,000,000
was spent
for expansion and service im¬
provement by the company in 1947, almost double the amount spent
in
1946.

PURPOSE—The

net

proceeds will be applied to the cost of construc¬
will be
approximately $35,000,000 during the
1949.
It is estimated that about $8,000,000 w.ill be
obtained from cash on hand
and becoming available from annual
operating revenues of the company, approximately $4,500,000 from the
net cash proceeds received from the sale of the cumulative preference
stock and the balance of $22,500,000 through additional financing.
The
nature of the financing will be determined on the basis of conditions
at
the time such financing
is undertaken.
It is now believed 1hat
such funds will be raised by the issuance and sale of bonds, notes or
other securities having priority over the securities now offered.

The agreement between Tide Water

by Tide Watei from Sunray of 1,923,447 shares of Tide Wai.tr com¬
