Texas Power & Light Company officials report a postwar industrial boom for Texas. President John W Carpenter told 200 district managers in Dallas that Texas natural resources, climate, and skilled labor promise rapid growth. He cited ongoing line improvements in Comanche and expansions in Dallas area facilities as proof of a strong foundation for a new industrial era.
