Priorities have materially In
fluenced the scheduled installa-
lions. A re-survey made December
l, 1871 of expected delivery dates
of equipment showed that the
1912 schedules had been augment
ed several hundred thousand kilO-
watts by installations planned for
1941 but not completed that year,
that a large amount of capacity
scheduled for 1912 had been de-
ferred to 1943, and considerably
more scheduled for 1943 had been
deferred to 1914. The table gives
the result of this December / re-
survey.
Later developments, of course,
may cause further deferments in
these schedules but the 1912 sche-
dule is already well under way
toward completion.
Peak Loads
The sum of the December peak
loads on the various systems OF
the country will show about 10

imately 34A million kilowatts.
