Orders be ing accepted on basis shipment 12 to 15 months and upon availability of asso ciated steel forglngs which are bought out. Distribution Insulators Yery limited stocks available some sub standard materials and war surplus available. Copper Wire Sue to strikes which have Just been eeis eluded, the Industry Is far behind consumer demands. Orders are presently being taken on basis of 8 to 7 months shipment. ' Transformers No Improvement small stsed distribution transformers are almost completely unob tainable. Manufacturers are not even quot ing delivery time, but anticipate upwards from 18 to 20 months. Larger distribution and high tension equipment is being quoted 11 to 15 months. Such used equipment as Is available is usually found to be 30 to 33 years old and Is being held at Impossible prices. Poles Standard butt treated cedar pole produc tion nationally Is running several millions below demands. Improvement in labor, prices and development of new access fa cilities to the more remote Interior stands are required before any relief can be expected. Pole Line Hardware Nominal quantities of sub-standard sub stitutes are available for deliveries In S or S months, or even longer, but In their de sire to apportion that which Is available. Here 's Why... You'il Haye to Wait for New; Electric Service to Your Home, Farm or Factory. A m CUTI shortage in production of trant former and other materials needed to extend electric service will delay the time when we can take care of new users of electricity. We're '' sorry, but the nation-wide situation is beyond our control. We want you to know the reasons why we cannot serve you right now that is why we are listing here some of the Important materials affecting new business extension: producers are reticent to accept substantial orders to any one consumer. Native spa des are obtainable; however, inability to secure proportionate quantities of treated stubs on which to mount them precludes their popular acceptance. ' Hardware Following settlement of the steel and soft coal strikes, straight steel items hare eased off materially; however, due to porcelain shortage, any Item made up In combination Is very difficult to secure, with many tpeo lalty Items completely unobtainable. ' Crossarms Inability of Pacific Northwest erossarm mills to cope with demands has forced the development of new sources. A satisfactory local arrangement has been worked out, as suring adequate quantities In the Immediate future. ' Fuse Switches, Cutouts, Disconnecting Switches AM are largely combination copper-porcelain products and are directly affected by the acute porcelain shortage. We are not always able, despite our best efforts, to pro vide sufficient to meet current demand. Pipe & Pipe Fittings' Unprecedented demands for small steel pipes have exhausted stocksi mill deliv eries are on allocated basis with spora dic deliveries. Cast iron pipe Is likewise slow, deliveries - often running S to 7 months, depending on sin. Most C. I. fit tings are reasonably available from In dependent foundries in the metropolitan areas. We hope that production will soon hit Its stride that you won't have to wait too long for the convenience of electric service. Wo assure you that service will be provided Just as soon as materials are available. The CALIFORNIA OREGON POWER COMPANY 20 Klamath Phone S18S
