.3-YEAR POWER *
AGREEMENT ENDS
Corporation Demands T. v.
A. Promise Not to Build
Competing Lines.
TODAY'S PROGRAM
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The three-year working agreement
on sale and distribution Of power
between the Commonwealth & South
ern Corp. and the Tennessee Valley
Authority was at an end today, the
break coming last night when the
old contract expired, after the Gov
ernment insisted on freedom to COM
pete with private power interests.
Wendell L. Willkie, president Of the
corporation, announced it would buy
no more T. v. A. power until the
Government promises not to build
competing power lines.
Under the old contract Common
wealth g. Southern bought about
$500,000 of T. v. A. power annually
and received guarantees that the Fed
eral authority would not compete with
it in certain territories.
T. v. A. directors said after a con-
ference with Willkie Tuesday they
would not grant his company mo-
nopoly on Government power in the
four States where it operates-Ten-
nessee. Mississippi, Alabama and
Georgia,
T. v. A. offered a 50-day option on
the old contract while a new one was
being considered. but Willkie an
nounced he was letting the agreement
lapse.
He expressed hope that the Gov
ernment and his firm yet could reach
an understanding. But he added that
Commonwealth g. Southern does not
need Federal power to supply its GUS
| toners.
Willkie said he hoped a plan to pool
both public and private power, as pre-
viously discussed by President Roose-
welt, would be the solution of Govern
nent and private competition. How
ever, the President terminated pool
ing negotiations, contending power
company injunctions against T. v. A.
precluded them.
