ARKANSAS LIGHT &
 POWER COMPANY
('9uo o5ed molJ panunuoO)

and cents way may be imagined from the statement of Manager Woodward that expenditures for material and labor this year will be about half a, million dollars, this being exclusive of the expenditures by the Pine Bluff company. \ Rs
 The 36 properties Of the Arkansas Light x Power company are worth something more than $10,000,000 and they are constantly being improved. The corporation is now constructing 2 high tension power line to Sherrill, England and Lonoke, and contracts for power made before the stringing of the wires was started made it nec- essary to increase the capacity over the original plans. It is expected that further improvements will be made at the local plant which is to provide the power distributed over the high tension line.
 "The establishment of the genera, offices Of the company here is great thing for Pine Bluff said MT Woodward. It not only means more business for the city, because all the properties will be directed from here and purchases for all made here, but tt will. bring to Pine Bluff some oi the biggest and most successful mer in Arkansas; men alert and keen men who are great assets for the city. Mr Coucl, is one of the fines men I've ever met, and he will bring wit hhim others of great ability and line character. Of course, am grati fieH at the decision to locate the gen. cral offices here. We feel that Pine Bluff is the logical point, being most centrally located in relation to the other properties of the company and being the center from which the greatest activities may be expected
