MOPPING UP OF
THIRD WAR LOAN
IN NOR. CALIF.
' Mopping up. operations in the
Third War Loan Drive. were under-.
‘way this week throughout PORES ED .
California. ‘
Returns from the early stages of
the drive indicated total sales in
Northern California of $250,000,000
i with a substantial amount yet to be
. sold if this section of the state is to
. meet its $424,000,000 quota.
. Emphasis th the closing weeks of
cas drive concentrated on ‘the sales
}of Series E bonds —the People’s
'bond—which, in the early stages of
ithe drive, fell behind the purchases
‘of larger groups and corporations.
. The -series E Bond is especially
designed for the small investor, and
‘is available in denominations from
,$25 to $1,000. It offers the highest
. returns of any of the different types
jof government securities, if held :o
maturity. For every $3 invested, it
returns, $4 at the'end of ten years.
. Officials of the Northern Califorjnia money raising campaign pointed
out that the burden of filling ‘the
quota rested in large measure on ‘in. dividual purchases, since the “biz
. buyers” and the “cash money” came
in early in the campaign.
From here on in, they said, it was
jup to every individual to purchase
bonds to the limit of their ability in
order to do their share-in the naition’s effort to raise 15 billion dollars in the Third War Loan.
Drive officials emphasized \ that
. Italy’s downfall and the favorable
. Progress of the war on all fronts did
. not lessen by as much as one penny
the amount of money Uncle Sam
would need to carry the war to a
successful conclusion. iIf anything,
they pointed out, the more money
raised. now—the higher the sale of
bonds, the mofe chance for an early
I victory.

P. 6. E. CONTRACTS
FOR DELIVERY OF
SHASTA POWER
By JAMES B. BLACK
President P. G. & E.
The Pacific Gas and Electric Comthé purchase of the power to be generated at Shasta Dam.
For the war period the capacity of
the plant will be 150,000 kilowatts. .
While this is a large installation: it
represents only 8 per cent of the
power resources of the Pacific Gas
and Electric Conipany.
Shasta power will be delivered to
the company’s Shasta substation, located on its Pit River transmission
system, about 25 miles below Shasta
‘Dam. It will be metered and paid. for
at that point. .
A transmission line between Sihas¢
ta substation and Oroville, a distance of 75 miles, is now being built
by the government at a cost of $1,250,000. The company Proposed to
build this line out of its own funds,
and last June congress refused to
make an appropriation for its construction by the government. However, the Department of the ‘Interior
had on hand unexpended balances
from other appropriations with
Which to build the line. It is now
using such funds for that Purpose.
Under the contract the line between Shasta substation and Oroville
will be leased to the company for a
rental of $75,000 per: year and will
be operated and maintained by the
company. It will be in effect a tiei
line between two transmission systems of the company. During six
months of the year this line will be
used to transmit power generated in
the Pit River plants of the company
down the east side of the Sacramento ‘Valley. by way of Oroville. At
such times Shasta power will be
transmitted from Shasta substation
down the west side over the existing
Pit river trangmission lines.
The Shasta plant is expected to he
in operation sometime after March
Ist next year. During 1944 the conpan will take as much of the output
as can be used in its system and beginning January Ist, 1945, will increase its’ purchases to a minimum
of 800 million kilowatt hours annually. It will pay the government’ approximately. $3,000,000 a year beginning January Ist, 1945, with a
guarantee of $2,700,000.
The contract provides that the
government may withdraw power if
it. chooses, up to 50,000 kilowatts.
When it takes back half this amount
or 25,000 kilowatts, it may terminate the lease of the Oroville line.
Then the government would make delivery of the reduced amount of power to the company at Oroville instead
of Shasta substation. In that event
thé company’s payments for power
would be reduced more than. $330,000 a year and the government
would lose also the $75,000 a year
rental for the line.

the govérnment’s pumping plants: on
the Contra Costa canal unit of the
‘Central. Valley project. Power for
itthese plants is now being furnished
iby the company. The ‘company will
continue to serve them but will be
paid hereafter in power delivered to
it at Shasta substation.
The contract will run until Decemwar and two years thereafter, which
ever is the later.’ It will expire, in
any event in December 31st, 1949,
unless extended by further agreement of the parties.

same time in order to extend the
market for Shasta power and conserve natural gas and oil used for
fuel. This program will be followed
under the contract.
The contract now entered into will
permit Shasta power to be used
throughout northern and central
(California. over the widespread system of the company. The government:
will have the advantage of the company’s market without the expense
of building dulicate lines and facil
ities and without destroying taxpaying property or damaging large investments already dedicated to the
service of the territory.
