The
first quarter aft 1948
resulted in record sales volume and,
likewise,, record net profits. This increased volume is attributable in
a
large degree to the expanded activities of the company;in plywood
production and distr bution through its acquisition of the controlling
interest
in
additional Pacific
Coast manufacturing facilities. • This
acquisition was accomplished Oh Jan. 15,1948, and operating benefits
from such purchases were evidenced to some degree through February,
but to a much large degree in the month of March when the aggregate
tales volume exceeded that of any previous month,

HISTORY AND BUSINESS—Company was incorporated in California
Oct. 5, 1910.
Company is an operating public utility engaged principally
in tlie business of acquiring, gathering, compressing, exchanging, dis¬
tributing and selling natural gas to domestic, commercial, gas engine,
industrial and wholesale customers in Los Angeles, San Bernardino.
Ventura, Kern, Riverside, Kings, Tulare, Fresno and Imperial counties,
in
California.
Company
distributes natural gas exclusively excep's
that It owns, operates, and maintains butane gas plants and distributed
butane gas,'.'therefrom in 3ix small communities not presently adjacent
to
its natural gas system.
' •'*'/•/ ' !.V
Inurv: "r •* < /
.} si/-;. '■;
;i The, major part of the company's revenue is derived from sales to
domestic customers.
Company also sells considerable volumes of go
to
industrial customers under interruptible schedules.
Such gas i
available after the demands of firm customers have first been satis¬
fied.
During tlie five years ended Dec. 31,
1947, the increase ir
demands of firm customers resulted in a substantial reduction of th'
amount of gas sold to interruptible industrial customers.
Large addl
tional supplies of natural gas having been made available througl
purchases from the El Paso Natural Gas Co., company anticipates •«
substantial increase in its sales to interruptible industrial customer
during
the year 1948 and subsequent years.
Gas sold under such
interruptible schedules is used principally as fuel in boilers and kLln
and these sales compete with sales of fuel oil for similar uses.
Since
1943, the posted price of fuel oil at Southern California refineries
has increased
from 85 cents to $2.15 per barrel.
Such increase ha'
enabled
the company to raise its rates for .interruptible
industria'
gas service an average of approximately 15 cents per thousand cubic
feet, and to continue to maintain a favorable price advantage over
fuel oil;
If the price of such fuel oil were reduced be'.ow $1.75 f>el
barrel, the company would expect to reduce the price of such gas. • /.
On
Dec. 31, 1947, the company purchased the butane plants and
