DUKE POWER TO
CONTINUE FIGHT
To Appeal Nettles' Ruling
On High Point Project
To Supreme Court

GREENSBORO, Sept. s.1R-
Attorneys for the Duke Power COM
pany prepared today to appeal to
the supreme court a decision OF
Judge Zeb V. Nettles in superior
court here giving High Point the
go ahead signal in the building of
its $4,000, 900 hydroelectric project.
Judge Nettles signed an order
yesterday holding that High Point
had made Substantial and con-
trolling change" in the power prof.
ect plan and that the court should
modify the injunction. He also held
that in making the changes the
power commission and council had
not been in contempt Of court.
He cited the fact that the su-
preme court last April held that
the Yadkin river, on which the
project would be built, is not a
navigable stream, and that High
Point had no right to accept a fed
eral power license.
He said, however, that High
Point, by a resolution last July
Is, had rejected and discharged the
federal license and that the license
no longer constituted a part of the
proposed project.
The power company also contend
ed that the proposed issue OF
bonds for the project came under
a legislative act of 1888, which re-
quires a certificate of convenience
and necessity from the State Uti-
lities commission before bonds can
be issued.
Judge Nettles held that by a bond
resolution adopted last July Is the
city had placed itself squarely under
the 1895 act and had divorced it.

RUSHvILLE. Ind, Sept. 6.-u'
Wendell L. Willkie is on record
as favoring a "selective service"
program for government operation
of American industries during emer
gencies.
After a meeting with party lead
ers which he described as harmoni'
GUS >and optimistic, the republican
presidential nominee told reporters
late yesterday:
Under the Overton Russell
amendment which the senate adopt
ed to the military ~seiective service
bill, industries could be seized by
the government because Of the ca
price of one man.
II a bill were introduced provid'
ing that in case of emergencies IN
dustries should be selected-just as
in the case of men for the Army
and taken over by the government
under rules and regulations instead
of the arbitrary actNo one man, l
would be for It,"
Willkie, seated in a pergola in a
neighbours garden, said he had not
seen the exact language OF a pro-
posed house modification Of the
Overton.Russell amendment.
The latter would permit the Pres
ident to direct the institution of con
demnation proceedings against de-
Tense facilities" by the War or
Navy department after the depart
ments had certified that they had
been unable to reach an agreement
with the plants owners. The amend
ment also would authorize the gov
eminent to operate such a plant
while the proceedings were pend
