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.

H N. Edward Chairman, Brown, to referring the company's the reorganization proceeding states: When the ICC on Oct. 31, 1940, announced its status in plan of reorganiza¬ maximum capitalization for the reorganized com¬ the parties to the proceeding filed various objec¬ thereto, as contemplated by the statute. These objections were Dec. 30, 1940. The Commission took them under consideration, tion, prescribing a pany of $351,180,912, tions 'filed in and 1941, August, announced supplemental a report and modified under date of July 31, 1941, which it certified to the Court for approval. In the meantime, the trustees on June 1, 1941, had paid ,;the $4,500,000 they 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.
