Acker, President, In a special company report mailed to
stockholders on Sept. 8, states that the company anticipates a con¬
tinued large increase in electric sales over the next several years.
Pointing out that use of electric power in the company's franchise
territory has increased 250%
during the past 20 years and 60% in
the 'past
five years, Mr. Acker said that a
projection of electric
production and sales trends indicates a 45%
expansion in electric
sales during the period through 1953.
A major factor in this forecast
is the
economic
stability of the company's territory, according to:
