The result* for that perio.l ar I far frotb satisfactory. The operating I revenues fell short of paying operating | expenses alone by over $lO3 000, or ho urly $140,000 on an annual basis. For the nine months’ period the total revenues fell short of paying expenses and in terest charges by over $017,000. or nearly $1,225,000 on an annual basis, with nothing whatever for any return on the I stockholders' investment represented by $11,411,200 capital stock outstanding, all of which was issued and sold at par for cash or Its equivalent in property. The situation is due to the fact that the rates for service are Inadequate and If we are to continue to function and furnish adequate and satisfactory serxice, they must be materially increased. *15,000.000 FOR CONSTRUCTION. “Furthermore, we must spend upward of $15,0(.000 for n®w construction wish In the next five years in order to keep pace with the growth and meet the demands for additional service thr ugh .ut the State of Indiana.
