Extracts from The Montana Power Company 194l Annual Report
POWER for WAR

During 1941 The Montana Power Com
pany delivered the largest industrial ~electri-
cal load in its history. The major portion of
this power was used to produce large amounts
OF copper, zinc, manganese, also chromium,
~vanadium, cadmium and indium, all being
essential to the production of material for
war purposes.
This load is one of the largest loads of
electrical energy used for purely war pur-
poses in the United States. Incidentally it
is the low cost of electrical energy in Mon
al that makes it possible to mine low-grade
ore deposits lying at great depths. This cir
cumstance has kept Montana's mining camps
and smelter towns on a producing basis,
thereby contributing enormously to Montana
payrolls and tax collections. Now, in time
of war, cheap electricity is a potent factor
in the welfare of the entire nation.
DEFENSE BONDS
AT the close of the year a plan was devised
whereby employees could voluntarily desig-
nate a portion of their monthly salaries to
be set aside for the purchase of war bonds.
The handling of such individual bond pur-
chases and their delivery is done through
the Accounting Department as a conven-
fence to the employees.
MEN IN SERVICE
Many of our men have been called into
military service. Every remaining employee.
however, may be considered as a direct
service to the nation, due to the fact that
this is an essential defense industry. The bulk
OF the Montana Power Company's electric
load is devoted to the production of metals
and other vital war materials.

$2,788,357 FOR


IT 161, 000-volt in~terconnecting transmits
sion line between Anaconda, Montana, and
Grace, Utah, referred to in the last annual
report, was placed in commercial operation
in 1941. The entire line is 274 miles long.
The Montana Power Company built 126
miles - the portion lying within Montana.
This line added Utah and Southern Idaho
to the northwest grid which includes plants
and distributing systems in Washington,
Oregon, Northern Idaho and Montana. The
ability of these systems to exchange electrical
energy greatly increases the flexibility and
availability of power for war purposes in
the areas served by the properties comprising
the network.
A new 25-mile 50,000-volt transmission line
between Bozeman and Livingston was COM
pleted in June to replace a former line built
in 1910. 1t was built to anticipate the future
industrial and residential requirements of
the Livingston District and to supply power
to mining operations.
Lines added in 1941 raised the Company's
mileage operated to a total of 5,50l miles of
electric lines at the year end.
Construction was also undertaken incident
to increasing the voltage of the Kerr Plant
Anaconda line from 10000 volts to 161, 900
volts.
Besides the major projects listed above,
customary minor construction, reconstruction
and maintenance work was carried on.
The Company and subsidiaries spent
81, 1885 for property additions in 1941. After
retirementS of property, net ad-
ditions for the year totaled S2,136,672.

OWNERSHIP

The Montana Power Company, like most corporations, is owned not by
few wealthy individuals but by great numbers of small investors. individuals
like yourself, who are a part of the great American public, have built such
industries with their hard earned svaings.
Your nation is o committed O a fight to the finish that will determine
whether democratic institutions will survive or be supplanted by political
systems and ideologies abhonent to free men. Because of the military urgency
bound to accompany such a world wide conflict, reasonable people EXPECT
sudden social and economic changes in sharp contrast to the normal tenor of
their lives. They are willing o accept without protest the unwonted discipline,
dscomforts and sorrow enaled. They will voluntarily make grave personal
sacrifices for the welfare of the nation. But they also expect such conditions
to last only for the duration of the val and for the period of readjustment
that must inevitably follow.
Our boys in the service are depending on ornaments produced for their
and protection by the efficiency of buInessmanaged industry behind the
lines the kind of industry in which you stockholders ire partners. 1t is
essential in peace as well as wa that this efficiency be in n way impaired.
boys are also depending o m you o safeguard the Bill of Rights during
their absence.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty and while III armed forces are
fighting the battle abroad W e Americans at home must not overlook insidous
attacks Of freedom here. We must moi be blinded O cajoled into permanent
of our right to invest in and operate business enterprises as xem
by American industry. We must preserve the American way of life Sc
hat when our boys eurn victorious they will still find freedom and oppor-
unity awaiting them.

Questicnnaires were recently mail
ed to all former part time coopera-
tive students asking for information
OF the advantages on the Glasgow
high school course.
OF the las letters sent out by Co.
ordinator L. w. Seibel, IA replies
were received. Some of the advant-
ages which the former students list
ed as most important were business
training, experience and confidence
gained through their jobs. Monthly
salary increases range from SIS TO
$500. OF those who replied, 88 per-
cent said they would choose to take
the course again.
Since there have been many calls
for P. T. G. students for next school
year as we'll as for students to work
this summer, a night class in pre-

Integration or i-nterconnection of power
plant systems results from needing the old
warning against carrying all of the eggs in
one basket. Any INDIVIDUAL power plant
might be subjected to sudden and unantici-
pated demands that would exceed its capa-
city; it might encounter prolonged failure
of equipment due to sabotage or accident
impossible to ~foresee; if it were q hydro
electric plant it could be embarrassed in times
of drouth.
BY combining the resources of MANY
plants, through i-nterconnecting transmission
lines, power can be allocated to the best adj
vantage throughout the territory served and
such indignation provides electrical customers
with insurance against inadequacy or COM
plete failure of power supply. A power short
age occurring at one point can be offset by
a surplus available elsewhere in the system.
The Montana Power Company's IA gene
rating plants are i-ntraconnected. In addition,
our system is in-terconnected with the power
plants of other business-managed companies
operating in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and
Utah.
It is a trueism that in the face of the
present war emergency every resource OF the
nation must be utilized and coordinated to
the best advantage. The management of your
Company, as well as that of the other bust
ness-managed companies in the Northwest,
stands ready to cooperate with the admins
traitor of the federal hydroelectric projects
at Bonneville and Grand Coulee so that mu-
tual helpfulness and the most efficient dis
tribution of electric power may be achieved
without unnecessary government expenditures
and the waste of vital copper.

Alsab, Dog Named For a Horse, Wins
 Three Show Awards

What may be described as at least a mild sensation, was provided by Mrs. Jane Browns dark seal puppy, P. Us Alsab, who won no less than three ribbons in the ninth annual Boston Terrier show, sponsored by the Boston Terrier Club of Connec- ticut Sunday afternoon at Patsy Browns Silver Chalet. Having all the marks of @ potential champion, Alsab, named for the famous thor oughbred racehorse, the Brown ter- rier won top award in his class; took first among winners dogs and then was selected best of winners.
 Best in show went to Mrs. Don Smiths Riddle Boots Son, sired by MT. and Mrs. Patrick Browns ChP. Riding High; a dog which has taken local show honors for two successive years and has record of 3S best in breed awards in variety groups where dogs of all breeds have been judged.
 Important
 More important was the victory of Mrs. Browns Alsab, yesterday, be- cause the dog was chosen from a field of keen competitors, by Harry N. Clasen, president of the Boston Terrier club of New York.
 The special award for best of op- posite sex went to the winners bitch which Alsab had to beat out for the best of winners title, Midge Dee II, owned by Dr. Oren M. Deems and shown by Irene Connolly, which fin- iShed its title here today.
 The reserve award in dogs went to Fred H. Lucas's mahogany brindle, Emperor's Ace, whil the re- serve bitch was John H. Rooney's Miss Ever Smart.
 Waterbury came in for other wins, notably the taking of the prize of a $50 war bond by Mar garet Hamilton, who also placed fourth in her class with Luck Eliza. Tn addition, Mrs. August Reed made her show debut by win ming one of the female puppy class es with Our Lady Bess, which was sired by the show winner. Peter Richie landed 8 second with the consistent campaigner, Grown Prince VIII. Mrs. Brown landed a second ribbon in a puppy dog class with P. Us Connecticut Yankee, sired by the Browns Oh. P. J. Rid- ing High.
 Steady Winner
 One of the most consistent win ners and placers of the day was the Pickmee Kennels of MT. and Mrs. Jacck Tracey Clarke of East Hart ford. MT. Clarke is president of the show-giving club, and with Patsy Brown provides most of the driving power which has made the club one of the outstanding speciality clubs in America.
