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.
