At the end of 1946 a total of approximately 75,219 Farms were being served with electricity. For those Ontario farmers who have applied for Hydro service, your Commis- sion desires to draw attention to the conditions which now seriously slow up connections to new consumers and the building of rural extensions. During and since the war, it has not been possible to obtain sufficient materials to build all Hydro service equipment to the capacity needed to meet the new and greater demands. As a consequence, the trickle of material now available is being largely applied in the urgent rehabilitation of existing Hydro lines. While the Commission contiuues to press strenuously for maf^rial and equipment, it can complete, this year only a small pait of the full program planned. Unfortunately, many applications already approved will, of necessity, remain uncompleted this year. Present policy oj pur Comitission, with which it is believed you will agree, is to first bring existing essential services up to adequate capacity, and then serve all appli- cants in order of receipt of applications, giving preference to farm and similarly essential users over those of other types of service. These facts are presented so that you may make your plans with a full under- standing of the delaying conditions beyond the control of your Commission.
