M. Johnson, gen eral manager. A futher appropri ation of approximately $80,000.00 was approved and materials ord ered for a new transmission line between Ainsworth and Valen tine, Mr. Johnson stated. The new line between Bassett and Ainsworth is to be construct ed for 33,000 volts but will b« operated for the time being or the basis of 22,000 volts. Construction of the new line between Ainsworth and Valen tine will accomplish a two-fold purpose. First, it will materially improve service at Ainsworth as well as at other distribution points from Valentine to O’Neill. Second it will make possible a greater output of kilowatt-hours from the two plants at Valentine, which of course will contribute to an even finer quality of ele<?tric ser vice.
