Oklahoma, is
engaged
principally in generating, distributing and
selling electric energy in eastern and southwestern Oklahoma.
It
also owns
and
operates four small water utility properties.
Prior'
to June 30, 1947,
the company was engaged also in producing, pur- ■
chasing, distributing and selling natural gas.
;
At organization, company acquired the properties of Atoka Ice &
Power Co., Guthrie Light & Power Co., Oklahoma Electric & Refrig-.
erating Co. at Coalgate, The Tulsa Corp., Vinita Electric Light, Ice &
Power Co., and the municipal plant and distribution system at Lehigh,
all located in Oklahoma.
In
the period since
its organization, by.
extensive purchases of utility properties, from corporations, individuals
and municipalities, and construction of
plants, transmission lines and
distribution
systems,
the company has expanded to
their present
extent its properties and business and the territory served by it.
For the 12 months ended Oct. 31, 1947, the company derived ap¬
proximately 91.47%
