To pay for these new power developments for new
buildings for line and switching equipment for rural
line extensions and pay for the transformers and equip
ment necessary to hook up customers, will require
within the next twelve months the expenditure of close
to two million dollars
Few people have the faintes idea of the vast amount
of sound solid property that is each year being built by
Central Maine Power Company-not primarily for the
purpose of making money but rather for the purpose
of doing our job.
MORE PROPERTY-MORE EARNINGS
This new property goes to work at once bringing in
earningsfor the people of Maine like people the world
oVer--are willing to pay fair price for good service
@The year the Company started it earned less than
$4,000 (gross).

Of electricity has been of them.
The Company started protest against lack
Of vsionas protest against the belief that there

When, years ago, an electrical expert investigated

OUR JOB-SO WE DID IT

When, in times, a demand existed for more and
more electric energy Central Maine Power Company built
aplan People said it time to build power plant
but the territory served needed more poWer-and
our job was to supply it, so we did the job.
When the war ended and the demand still grew peo-
pie said, THE boom will endif you develop power
you'll have it left your hands,
We did develop more power--we built the Skowhegan
station-and the boom ended-and instead Of less de-
mand for power the mounting demand sopped up every
bit that Skowhegan could develop and cried for more
Within the past twelve months have rebuilt
plant at WateVle, have added another unit at Skowhe-
gan
What vast sums of money it takes to provide for the
growing electrical needs of the territory is hard for the
public to realize.
THIS MUST BE DONE
In the next twelve MONTHS just to stay ahead of the
mounting demand for power the Company must build
power station at Union Maine, to supply Knox County
1t must put new unit in its power plant at Deer
Rips, must put new steam turbine in its Lewiston sta
ton new unit IN its Norway station must rebuild the
Cascade plant at Oakland
