should be relaxed and simplified as
possible during the period of the war.
Earnings—The net income of the company alone in 1941, after pre-,
ferred dividends, was equivalent to 47 cents per share on the' common
stock; as against 41 cents per share for the year 1940.
The consolidated net income for the year 1941, after preferred divi¬
dends, was equivalent to $1.11 per share on the common stock as
against $1.21 per share for the year 1940.
Conditions prevailing for the past several years continued to affect
the flow of dividend payments to the company from the subsidiary
companies.
The consolidated net income was favorably affected in
1941 by non-recurring deductions for income tax purposes allowable
to various water company subsidiaries during the year.
Electric Properties—The total consolidated electric revenues was $43,657,000 in 1941.
This represented an increase over 1940 of $3,447,000,
or approximately 8.6%.
Of this Increase $2,473,000 was derived from
sales to industrial customers, $854,000 from sales to residential customers,
and $158,000 from sales to commercial customers.

had borrowed on trustees' certificates In 1936,
using for this purpose the cash derived from earnings.
The plan, as modified by the order of July 31, increased the pro¬
posed capitalization to $368,127,410, which is still a reduction of about
$83,000,000 in the existing capitalization, and is much too low to make
provision for the stockholders.
Moreover, in the modified plan, the
Commission advanced the "effective date" from Jan. 1, 1941, as fixed

According to present schedules, the company is expected to step up
production each month until it attains an annual volume many times
