The War places tighter limitation on Utilities' Service

A NEW WAR PRODUCTION BOARD ORDER issued the 26th day of March places stricter limitation upon utility companies for maintaining, repairing and supplying electric, gas and water facilities for general use by the public. Making additions or expansion of equipment beyond a given number of feet from existing facilities is prohibited under the order. This means that extension of lines and pipes to provide service for new homes or to homes heretofore without utility setwice is now almost entirely prohibited. It also places certain limitations upon the repairing of non-defense equipment. THE ORDER APPLIES with equal force to commercial and industrial customers seeking to expand their existing utility facilities, except in the case of war material producers whose preference ratings are such as to exclude them from the restriction order. Maintenance and repairs to facilities for public health and safety, of course, are also excluded from the tightened restriction. OUR PRESENT CUSTOMERS may rest assured that we will do everything consistent with the war effort to continue to supply their normal needs. However, as pointed out in the foregoing, non-defense expansion and extensions are almost entirely ruled out. OTHER RESTRICTIONS may be added as war conditions change. If you are planning to build a new home, store or factory, or make improvements, be sure to consult with us. Get the facts .. . don’t rely on gossip. PLEASE BEAR WITH US "for the duration” and understand that the war and its exacting demands has first call on our entire facilities ... civilian every-day needs must take a back seat until the war machine has been completely built and amply supplied to roll it on to victory!
