E x e cu to r A report on your Gas Company’s 84th year of service Much has happened since the Territorial Assembly authorized the establishment ol our gas business in January, 1859: Oregon became a state. Lincoln was elected President. The Civil W a r was fought . . . the Spanish-American W ar . . . then W orld W a r I. Portland Gas 8C Coke Company weathered all these events — continued to expand and improve its service, in good times and bad. Then in 1942, World W ar II was in full swing —challenging the Company with new problems and new responsibilities. But — as in the past — Portland Gas 8C Coke Company has mfct this challenge with new and greater achievements^ Some of these are summarized in this report to our customers. More Gas to More Customers Portland gas production in 1942 passed all previous records. The send-out for the year was 5,763,761,000 cubic feet — 29% more than the previous peak year of 1941. Much of this increased volume stent to war indus- tries to help them build vitally needed equip- ment for our armud forces. But a rapidly grossing population accounted for a substan- tial part of this increase. Last year 6,962 new gas users were added to our lines — as much as a whole nesv city of 20,000 population, The total number of customers served by Portland Gas & Coke Company at the end of 1942 was 96,5 (8 — another new record. Briquet Production Greatest Ever Because o f the fuel shortage caused by the war, the demand for Gasco Briquets was greater last year than ever before in the com pany’s history. Production in 1942 totaled 91,600 tons — 58% more than in 1941. But this production figure doesn’t tell the whole story. The greater part of these briquets went to meet local heating needs. This tremen dously increased the amount of sacking aiul house-to-house delivering necessary. But by careful planning, scientific routing and hard work, our crewi kept deliveries right oa schedule. Because of the splendid job our entire briquet organization has done, more than 25,000 homes in this area have had their fuel problems econom ically solved. Gasco Briquets still are sold at the same low prire in effect for the past four winters. Roll of Honor Sixty-four members of tlie Portland Gas it Coke Company organization are now serving in the armed forces of the United States. Their names are listed on the Honor Roll below. And here at home, 10% of the Company’s payroll is going into W ar Bonds every month to back them up. Clarence Walter Anderson Blair Babcock Lawrence William Bellmer Frank J. Bosvelt Irwin N.

Winn, Jr. Heat Conservation...A W ar Necessity The manpower shortage, the staggering bur- dens being carried by our transportation svstems, the immense fuel consumption of our war industries, the increasing population in this territory — all have combined to make fuel conservation an essential part of the war effort. For this reason, saving heat in every way possible was a responsibility for the duration that every man, woman and child assumed cheerfully in 1942. Everywhere are evidences that a seal fuel and heat saving job is being done, but in the event that extremely cold weather should create an exces- sive demand for gas, the War Production Board has directed us to ask all residential customers and many businesses and industries to curtail temporarily their use of gas until the emergency is over. You will be notified promptly by newspaper and radio if and when such necessity arises. Gasco Motor Fuel...G one to War, Too! Portland Gas & Coke Company’s benzol — along with quantities of otlu-r important chemical by-product % — has also enlisted in Uncle Sam’s services. You knew benzol, blended with gasoline, as Gasco Motor Fuel. Now benzol is used in lOO-octanc gasoline to give our air forces a more powerful aviation fuel than any being used by the Axis. Benzol is also employed in the manufacture of syn thetic rubber and other essential war products. But when benzol’s war job is done, you’ll find it hack in its former civilian role, ready to give you top performance in your post-war car (or plane)! Y our Cooperation Means Much In addition to supplying gas service to our 96,548 customers, we have the urgent job of producing a wide range of chemical products which are going directly into war uses. For this reason, we are particularly grateful for the splendid spirit of cooperation with which you have accepted necessary war-time changes. W e appreciate your business, and — as in peace time— we are making every effort to give you the best public service possible. But the need for conserving tires and equipment — the scarcity o f materials— the loss of men to the armed forces — together with other factors— GAS IS WAR MATERIAL Use it rjj wisely ! make it difficult for us to carry on our business entirely as in the past. Service calls, for exam ple, have to be routed in advance to minimize mileage — this means we camxx answer them quite so promptly as in the past. We arc asking you on occasion to read your own meter. We may even have to ask your assistance on other matters. Hut whatever inconveniences we may have to ask you to share with us in 1943 — u hales er changes in protluclion or (tolicy may be necessary — these will come about only in aid of the common p u r pose, of helping u in the war as quit kly as possible.
