Charges Duke Financing
Power Fight Are Aired
Voiced By Roy Deal, Attor-
ney For High Point, Be-
fore Supreme Court

RALEIGH, Feb. 90 Up The
state supreme court heard charges
today that the Duke Power company
is helping to finance fight by 4ad-
kin county against High Points pro-
posed s6,5O0,O00 power plant on the
Yadkin river.
The charges were made by Roy
Deal, attorney for High Point, IN IN
oral argument before the court. In
timatil.s that the salary OF b. 5.
Womble of Wirston-Salem, Yadkln
county counsel, was being paid by
the power company, Deal asserted:
I'VE think this situation is the
reason why Yadkin county and
High Point have not been able 70
get together on this case"
Womble said it was true that his
firm represented the power company
in Winston-Salem. He added, how
ever, that he was first approached
by a citizen and taxpayer whose
home site is threatened by this pro-
ject."
The Yadkin county suit is one OF
two cases pending before supren
court, in appeals by the city OF
High Point from restraining ordets.
The other case was brought by GER
tain residents Of High Point, and the
Duke Power company interviewed.
Principal issues in the Yadkin suit
are whether the City Of High Point
has the right to acquire 4adkin
county property by eminent domain,
and whether a license for the dam,
issued by the Federal Power Com
mission, is valid.
The second issue became of secon-
dary Importance today, when Deal
conceded that the Power Commission
might not have jurisdiction over the
river.
The main question in the suit bv
High Point residents is whether the
city government has the right 20
incur debt for the project, which
V ould be financed by loan and
grant from the PWA.
Oral arguments were concluded
today in the first suit, and will be
G. ltinued tomorrow in the second.
W. S. OBJ. Robinson Of Charlotte,
general counsel for the Duke Power
company, is expected to make the
principal argument against The pro-
ject.
Deal asserted today that High
Point had general legislative au
.hority'' to condemn land in Yadkin
county for the power project. He
contended that the flooding Of ap-
proximately 25 acres of the Yadkin
county home property would not in

Air Liner Crashed

PENNSYLVANIA Central Airlines
craft, carrying 25 persons, crash
ed in a clover fled near Lovetts-
Vile, Va, Saturday afternoon. Civil
Aeronautics Authority and air
line officials are inspecting the
wreckage to try to determine the
cause of the tragedy.
There was no indication of an
explosion before the plane hit. he
said, and the distance some por-
tions of the bodies and debris
were thrown might have been due
to impact velocity alone. The
mangled bodies were scattered
over 25-acre area.
1t was the lines first fatal acc''
dent in 13 years operations, and
the nations first fatal crash of a
commercial transport plane since
March 26, 1889, when eight were
killed at Oklahoma City.
Twenty-one victims were pass
engers and the others crew mem
bers, including an air line Off

Do You Really Want
A Change?

There is a lot of people who
are making a loud noise about the
President of the United States
running for the Third Term. They
say. 1.-TWO terms are enough. :
We'll, maybe so. Well not argue.
But how about some man who
insists on you keeping him on the
job for years and years? For in
stance, one of our United States
Senators.
Don't you think that we should
clean house in some of the less
important offices too? II the job
of being United States Senator is
so good as to cause one man to
want to keep it for twenty-eight
or thirty years, why not give 1t
to one of our Pinal County
citizens? One that we can trust!
And one that is we'll qualified and
deserves a good job? Yes. know
such a fellow. He is a Superior
Court Judge now, and he would
make a fine United States Sen
ator, too. And if he was elected
to the United States Senate, then
Us Little Clod Hoppers would
have a friend in Washington, D. C.
that we could write to.
Yes, we could even talk to him
when he comes back home on
vacation, and that is something
we haven't got now.
So, to some of you fellows that
really want to clean house, why
not start with the little Precinct
Officers and go right up the line
Then we can say: Equal Rights
to all and special privileges tC
none with a clear conscience.
