cooperative runs ahead or behind
would, as rule, hardly be matter
of important news value; but in the
instance of Caldwell the develop
ments serve to show that the North
Carolina Rural Identification Au-
thority was sound and correct in
it's contentious some two years ago
when the Caldwell project was
being organized.
At that time Dudley Bagley, State
REA head, pointed out clearly that
the project was economically un-
feasible unless it could serve a
minimum of a thousand customers
with an avlrage bill of some $3.12.
He contended then, and results
have proved how right he was,
that the cooperative could not pos-
sibly secure the $500 customers its
sponsors calmly but vigorously as
serted they would sign up.
The State Authority also declared
then that the absence of any
minimum monthly charge would
prove fatal to the project as hun
dreds of its customers would use
much less than dollars worth of
/ electricity monthly, a prophecy
which is now shown to be COM
pletely accurate by admission of
the co-op's manager.
The Caldwell cooperative is the
only one in North Carolina without
minimum monthly charge. The
Tarboro coop, for instance, has a
monthly minimum of $265, and is
apparently paying its way success
fully. Brief figuring shows that if
Caldwell were operating on the
same plan and could retain its 1854
customers Ca very doubtful contin-
gency), it would be just about
break even, for if every one of the
bills were a minimum its monthly
income would be $2,528, only S.
short of the total expense for
amortization and current.
1t is also interesting to note in
connection with the project that the
Federal REA authorities reported
that the Caldwell Mutual served a

number OF years was music

The affair was quite largely at

Noon Storm
Does Little
Damage Here

A hard rain and electrical storm
that passed over the Henderson sec
ton early this afternoon did COM
paratlvely little damage, SO far as
was reported few hours later.
The storm followed "a morning
OF hot sultry weather, with clouds
forming around the noon period
and the storm breaking between
one and two o'clock. Lightning
struck in a Jew instances, but with
out serious damages. Electric light
fuses were blown in places, but
beyond that no damage of conse-
quence was reported
The storm tended to cool the at
mosphere in early afternoon, with
indications Of further showers be-
fore night.
Rains are not generally needed
here, and dry weather ior several
days would pe a great help to farm
ers in carrying on their work of
harvesting and curing the tobacco
crop. Intermittent rains the first
half Of the week have not done
damage TO the crop in any measur-
able extent, but growers are
anxious to nave favorabAe weather
for housing their rapidly maturing
leaf, and are fearful Of damage un-
less they can get along with this
work at lively rate in the. next
week or ten days.

ments on the REA loan made to fl

How far behind the coop has
been operating is revealed in para
graph of the circular letter sent out
by Superintendent C. F. Messick::.
"In April of this year we were
serving total of 954 members; ap-
proximately 800 of these were using
less than 25 kilowatt-hours, the
suggested minimum. The total in
come from the sale of electricity. for
April was $1,595.79. This income
was not sufficient even to meet two
items that must be met IN order TO
continue operation. First $1,94f.60
must be paid to the treasurer Of the
United States each month over:
period of 20 years to pay the cost
of constructing our lines. In addition
to this, we had bill from the
Duke Power Company for $592.O4
for wholesale power that had to
be met Thus, you see that It all
employees of the Caldwell Mutual
Corporation worked without any
pay, if there had been no expenses
for taxes, insurance, gasoline, office
rent, etc. that we would yet lack
$937 .85 of meeting our expenses
Simple arithmetic reveals that if
the coop lost none of its members
as the result of the 75-cent fee, 1t
still is running behind, as 954 Gus
toners as IS cents each would add
only $715 to its revenues, leaving
deficit from the two items OF
amortization and current of more

Mid-July Outlook
For States Crops
Is Unusually Fine

Raleigh, July 26.-(AP)- The
Department of Agriculture said
today that mid-July crop condi-
tiOns in North Carolina as a
whole are reported as unusual
ly good" by vocational agricul-
tural teachers. d.
Taking all crops as a WHOLE"
the report said, prospects are
considerably better than a year
ago."
Excessive rains in recent days
in the southern and eastern parts
of the State shave been detri-
mental to the harvesting of to-
baccO and to the quality of the
leaf" it was pointed out, "but
the production will be exceed.
ingly large"
Labor shortage on farms have
also caused heavy field losses.
A record crop is forecast.
Corn prospects were "excep-
tiOnally gOOd', the survey said,
with small grains, hay and pea
nuts usually above the average.
Fruit crops were generally eSti-
mated below usual yields.
