As the power situation gradually became worse, the voluntary honor campaign request to cut down the use of electricity has fallen far short of the reduction requested by the Hydro Electric Power Com. mission of Ontario, and Weston along with all the other hydro municipalities has been requested that they [must reduce the use of electricity to a figure 10% Tess than the power used duriaF the month of October, 1907. As eston is away above this figure, there was no other alternative but to conserve flower by introducing a one-hour s ut down period, Monday through Friday, inclusive, which commenced Monday, Feb. 23, 1948, in an attempt to reach the reduced figure. It is the hope of the local hydro that this figure may ttey reached, and with the continued eo-operation on the part of our} consumers it may be possible, but' if not, more drastic measures may have to be enforced.
