| STORM’S PRANKS WERE
NOT HERALDED IN MCE
Dear Mr. Editor: Though I am
neither owner nor employe of the
Alaska Ihtblie Utilities. I think I may
' safely say I am (so far as light is con
cerned! perhaps its largest consumer.
Therefore 1 feel the darkness more
keenly than most. Still, following the
rather sarcastic allusion in the morn
ing paper regarding the power going
oft yesterday afternoon when "nobody
had the least warning.” etc., I should
like to remark that it is assuredly cer
tain the Alaska Public Utilities had
no warning either, or undoubtedly
they would have hastened to fortify
all the threatened points while it was
daylight. But the little tornado raging
the past three days gave no indication j
ns to where it would strike, and no
defense could be prepared for the
point of attack. In consequence the
I employes of the company labored j
1 through hours of darkness and raging j
j storm until after midnight. Anyone
| familiar with the ground over which
i the transmission line Is strung be
tween the city and the power plant j
(a distance of five miles) need be no
further advised as to just what this un-!
j dertaking meant, in darkness A lan
tern broken or suddenly extinguished,
a single misstep, could easily mean
death or terrible injury to the un-'
fortunate one. Personally I think Cor
dova has no cause to complain of the
service given by the new company.
For a period of more than a year the
lights have been off two days, or pos
; sihly three, during April, as a result
! of one of the worst storms Cordova
has ever suffered.
