Cripps Says Marshall Plan Is Necessary LONDON' Wl Sir Stafford Cripps told parliament today British economy will collapse unless substantial U. S. aid comes this year. The chancellor ol the exchequer said in a white paper that only the Marshall Plan can prevent wholesale unemployment, distress 'and dislocation of production.

The summary predicted Britons "would get less food and clothing. It said that, without the Marshall Plan, there is "no prospect of a decent standard of living for years." The severe cold of the winter of 1946-47 and the summer-drought were blamed for impending reductions, i Tbtri's In 1940 about 10 cer cent of the U. S. national income was paid to i those engaged in agriculture and the manufacture of food, liquor and i tobacco. OUR BIG JOB Our big job today is keeping electric power flowing to our customers.

It's not an easy job, because we are working under the handicap of shortages in generating facilities brought about by conditions during wartime. Growth and accelerated industrial activity during the war and postwar years about used up the reserve of electric power that Texas Power Light Company had built up and used it up during a period when further expansion of electric generating facilities was practically impossible. During the war, all the big turbo-generators manufactured were necessarily diverted to the all-out war program they were needed for warships and for shipment to the war zone. Following the war, the few manufacturers who make these big generators were plagued with shortages and delays and, at the same time, were deluged with orders from power companies throughout the nation for urgently needed generating equipment. Among those orders is one for a turbo-generator of 84,000 horsepower capacity for Texas Power Light Company but we must wait until late 1949 for delivery.

But, also, we have placed orders for smaller generating units which can be delivered sooner 8,000 horsepower to be installed for use this year (1948) and 16,000 horsepower for use next year (1949). The new generators are coming. five of them, totaling 108,000 horsepower to supplement our present 294,000 horsepower of electric power resources. But between now and the time all this new capacity can be delivered and installed there may be occasions M-hen it will be a tight squeeze to make existing power supply go around. So, as we progress with the installation of this new generating capacity, we want to assure you that we are also working hard to fulfill our hopes that electric power may continue to flow to you in whatever quantities you may need.

We are in the midst of the most extensive expansion program in our history, at the completion of which there will again be an abundance of reserve electric power for future growth and development. TEXAS POWER LIGHT COMPANY JOHN W. CARPENTER, President and General Manager.
