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 1st York Curb Exchange has been advised that 4,950 shares par. 4% series, cumulative preferred stock have been drawn for redemption on June 1, 1948. Holders of these certificates of record at the close of business on April 30, 1948 were notified by mail on May 1, 1948 regarding the company's plan to redeem these 1 shares at $105.
