finally developed some idea Of being
an actor when he won a defamation
prize by reciting the last act Of "Cy-

to try journalism first, and when two
successive jobs, on the Cleveland

little in that direction, he was so
desperately in need Of immediate
funds that he sold haberdashery,
worked as a Wall Street runner,

JOHNSTON COUNTY
REA SUIT IS TEST
May Go to U. S, Supreme
Court To Determine
Identification Act aa
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.


Raleigh, Oct. 20.-Now that the
Johnston County Electric Member
ship Corporation must go into court
into what promises to be long
drawn out legal battle likely to end
up eventually in the U. S. Supreme
Court and involving the legal au-
thority Of the Federal Rural Elec-
trification Administration, the ques-
ton being asked here is whether the
Federal REA will come to the aid of
the Johnston county cooperative, or
whether it can expend money appro-
priated for building rural electric lines
in helping TO defend lawsuits.
Unless the REA in Washington
does come to the aid of the Johnston
County Rural Electrification Coopera-
tive and helps it defend the court &C
ton already brought by the Carolina
Power and Light Company to secure
a permanent injunction against it, the
people who are members of the john
ston county cooperative will have to
dig down in their pockets and de-
fend this suit, it is maintained here.
Indications also are that the litiga-
ton is going to be very prolonged
and very expensive, with the result
that the cooperative is going to have
TO spend a lot of money defending 1t
unless the Rural Electrification Ad-
ministration comes to its assistance.
While the Johnston county corpora
ton has been given a loan of $780,
600 to build rural electric lines, most
opinion here is that not single dol
lar of this amount can be expended
in defending the present law suit.
There is also serious doubt as to
whether the REA in Washington can
expend any of it's money, also ap-
propriated for the building of electric
lines, in assisting one of its coopera-
