Nevertheless, your Hvdro is extending essential rural services to the absolute limit of labour and materials available .Vbiuit 8000 applications, made and approved during 1944, stU await service, and many have since been added. These will be connected as soon as possible. It will take all the man-power, materials and ettiiri that Hydro can com- ntand to bring service t(.> these applicants in 1945. Tho.se requesting service along existing power Imes may, in some cases, be comiected before prior applicants wdio require lengthy extensions. We regret that many approved ap- plications may not be completed before 1946. In. 1944 your Hydro constructed about 400 miles of new rural lines, and added 9776 new customers With some 1200 Hydro empk>yees in the armed ser- vices or on loan to the government for technicolor work, along with the shortage of many materials critical to war needs, your Hydro has done and is doing everything pos- sible to extend electricity to essei^tial services. If your turn seems slow in coming, please consider the wartime condi- tions under which your Commission labours, and be assur- ed that it is doing everything possible to serve you with the utmost speed.
