There are 190 plants and shops in war production, working on either prime or subcontracts, in the two counties served by Mississippi Posvor Light Company.

As America marches toward all-out war, MPL electric power and industry join hands in Mississippi for maximum war production in a great agricultural state. Mississippi Power Light Co.
