Klngsmill, Vice-President, has been elected President, suc¬

Operations of the company's properties have been proceeding nor¬
mally so far this year, Mr. Kingsmill told stockholders at their annual
meeting.
There have been increased costs. because of higher labor
payments and prices for materials, but they are just about offset by
increases in the prices for the lead and copper the company will get
this ^ear, he said.
Earnings during the first quarter of this year, Mr. Kingsmill stated,
were
somewhat less than for the comparable 1941 period because of
smaller deliveries in March.
He added, however, that such short period
comparisons were erroneous.
Operations, he said, must be viewed over
a longer period, on which basis they are as good as last year, v
The company is reported to be producing approximately 1,000.000

1941, states that the report aside from being
also is a message to 77,000
stockholders, 1,700,000 customers and 22,000 employees of the oper¬

These public utility operating companies, he states,
are performing an important part in the vital services being furnished
by utilities to a nation at war.
Mr. Whiting further states:
Our electric companies have added
to and quickened the flow of
"the life blood of war production," as electric power has been well
characterized
by putting out 10,800,000,000 kilowatt hours of elec¬

It is estimated that the aggregate of allowances to the reorganization

It is therefore proposed to obtain a loan
from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation for these purposes.
The
RFC has indicated
that, subject to certain conditions being fulfilled,
it is willing to make a loan up to $4,000,000 to be secured by a first
mortgage on the property of the new company, and by its certificate
dated March 4, 1941 (as amended by further certificate date March 9,
1942), the ICC has given-its requisite statutory approval of such loan.

Preliminary Statement—The company went into receivership in July,
Subsequently, one after the other, its bond issues have gone
default, until at the present time the entire outstanding mortgage
debt, Including the small underlying issue of Merriam Junction bonds
which matured on June 1, 1927, and as extended matured on June 1,
1932, is in default.
In addition, preferred claims, which by orders of
the court have certain preferences over the claims secured by
the
mortgages in foreclosure (other than the Merriam Junction mortgage,
which is the mortgage securing the Merriam Junction bonds), remain
outstanding and unpaid in the aggregate face amount of $1,748,629.
The orders of the court do not determine the question of preference
between preferred claims and Merriam Junction bonds.
(All receiver's
certificates have been paid and none is now outstanding.)

The $4,000,000 issue carries the same interest rate as an issue of
$13,000,000 of bonds sold privately by the company last December at
a price
of 105 to yield 3.07%.
Net proceeds of the new issue will be applied against the cost of
the company's present $16,226,000 construction program, expected to
be completed by the end of 1944.
The balance of such expenditures
will be provided out of working capital and earnings.
As a result of sinking fund provisions, SEC stipulations and note
maturities, the company is engaged in a
steady,
substantial debt
retirement program.
Each series of its first mortgage bonds has a
sinking fund provision which, in the case of the Series D bonds, calls
for retirement each year, beginning with 1950, of lVfe% of the largest
principal amount of bonds of that series which have been outstanding
at any previous time.
7,r
I In addition, under requirements of the SEC, the company during
the years
1945 to 1958, inclusive, is obliged to retire $3,430,000 of
debt, in addition to debt now outstanding which will mature in that
period, and debt to be retired by sinking fund during the same years.

improvement in

materials and transportation facilities, plus a
greater spread than ever between operating costs at Savannah as
compared with the North (chiefly the result of discontinued importa¬
tion of Scandinavian pu'p) have made it necessary to increase production
at
Savannah," Mr. Calder said.
"The additional low cost
production at Savannah will increase profits before taxes sufficiently
to offset the costs of this increased production."
To
mark the completion of the 10th year of business under the
present management,
a
review of the past 10 years' operations is
included in the pamphlet report.
Growth of corporation in the past
decade is indicated by tables showing sales, earnings, assets and tax
figures for each of the 10 years.
The 1941 sales of $27,871,007 contrast with $6,422,043 in 1932; last year's net earnings of $2,168,313
