"Effective February 18, 1948, and continuing until further notice, the daily consumption of kilowatthours shall be restricted to a maximum of 90% of the average daily consumption of kilowatthours in the month of October, 1947. This reduction shall not apply to customers whose power supply was interrupted by the Commission in October, 1947 to the extent of 1O% or more of normal delivery.” This is a temporary emergency arising from sub-normal rain fall last Autumn which has forced two of the Quebec power companies to drastically reduce their deliveries of power to The Commission. This restriction will be lifted just as soon as circumstances per­ mit and in the meantime, all consumers must play their full part by saving electricity at all times. If the specified reduction in consumption of electricity is not obtained, it will be necessary to cut off the supply of electricity entirely for definite intervals of time each day, wherever the specified consumption is being exceeded.
