There was an increase of 3,788,000 kwh, or 11.8r< over September, 1948. The rate of increase during the first 9 months of 1949 has been considerably less than in the same period of 1948. In September, 1948, ouput was 17% over the preceding January, whereas in 1949, Sept­ ember was only 6% above January. It begins to ap­ pear evident that the future rate of increase in out­ put will continue to be moderate. It should be borne in mind that there is still a power shortage which will continue until the new 50,000 kw Rockwell Station is completed toward the end of 1950. During the latter half of September it was necessary to cut one or two circuits nightly be­ cause of overload. Unless there is voluntary ration­ ing of electricity during the hours of 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. it will be necessary to cut some circuits every night. Real Estate By C. M. Hoskins (0/ C. M.
