Hugoton has not published any estimates of earnings but it is
expected that its revenues from the sale of gas under the Kansas
Power & Light contract will aggregate about $2,000,00d in 1950 and
•increasing amounts during succeeding years and that further revenues
will be obtained from- the sale of additional gas and other products.
The credit agreement covering the company's 2%% promissory notes
