THAW AFFECTS WEST RIVER
Twin State Co. Carries Entire Load from
West Dummerston Plant-Very Little
Change at Vernon.

While the fair weather of Wednes.
day and the day before had slight eff
feet on the volume of water available
for power purposes at the Vernon dam
of the Connecticut River Power Co.,
there was noticeable change in con.
ditions at the West Dummerston dam
of the Twin State Gas G. Electric Co.
The West river, always susceptible to
temperature changes, came up enough
as result of the thaw so that the
Twin State Co, was able to carry all of
its local load from the West Dummer-
ston plant Wednesday afternoon and
evening, and did so with even greater
ease yesterday.
At the Vernon plant yesterday it was
said that there was a slight increase in
the volume of water Wednesday but that
it was hardly enough to amount to any
thing and that the increase seemed tc
have ceased. The power company Off
Gals, of course, are thankful even fol-
small favors but it is evident that there
will have to be a decided and prolonged
period of warm weather to greatly at
feet the volume of water in the Con
necticut.
