Additional Electrical Power Needed In Southern Utah
In February this year the Southwest Utah Power and Development Corporation organized in Cedar City aims to build plants to serve Kane Iron and Washington counties and develop power and water projects on the Virgin River and nearby coal deposits. The move follows poor service on the Escalante Desert and a potential power gap if the Escalante Electrical Cooperative loses its contract with Southern Utah Power Company, threatening irrigation power for 1950. Farmers report burned motors and crop losses. 1947 losses reached about 300000 dollars, this season estimated at 2 million. The Southern Utah Power Co is a subsidiary of Washington Gas and Electric of Tacoma, with Cedar City and Hurricane merchants as directors. Continued on page five.
