Trimming Trees
Is Essential TO
Utility Service

rroper trimming Of trees located
near electric utility wires is abSo-
iutely necessary to provide contlnu-
Gus service to customers and to pre-
vent injury to the public from fall
ing wires. William Bailey, manager
in this district for the Carolina POW
er and Light Company, said today.
1T is necessary for public utility
company such as ours to trim trees
along company lines to prevent con-
tact of branches with their wires, and
to prevent overhanging limbs and
dead branches from falling over the
line" said Mr.. Bailey.
Branches coming III contact with
the line cause interruption of electric
service and it is of record that a
single limb falling across a line can
stop service to several towns, he
added.
"Trees are not trimmed primarily
TO protect our wires" MIR. Bailey
added. but our company engages
trained tree surgeons TO do this work
so we can provide continuous service
to our customers and also protect
the general public from falling
wires"
Mr.. Bailey said his company not
only maintains a highly trained crew
Of tree trimmers, but that the famed
Davev tree trimming concern n
Ohio is under contract with tn:
company to supply trained tree sur
geons from time to time as they ar
needed.

The owner Of the Hammond, Ind,

Byrnes, who vas President

Its Field Offices On "a
Hour Schedule

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6. - R-
Pressing its investigation OF fifth
column suspects, the federal bur.
eau Of investigation put all Its neid
of6ces on a 24-hour schedule today,
the house passed a bill per
hitting wire tapping by the FBl
in investigations Of sabotage, trea'.
son and espionage.
The interstate commission on
crime, meanwhile, called for an IN
vestigation of what it termed the
..Nazi.Fascists' use of attaches OF
LEGATIONS and consulates for sub
versive propaganda and other nth
column activities in the United
States" The commission was or
aanized in 1882 to work for enact
ment of uniform crime legislation.
The commission, reporting to the
conference of state officials on fed
eral and state cooperation, called
attention to 1.-The surprising in.
crease" in the personnel of the on
sulates and declared "espion-
age and sabotage are to be expect
ed from Nazi-Fascist c%onsulates
and business firms"
J. Edgar Hoover, director of the
FBI, said the new around-the-clock
schedule for his field offices was
arranged 'in order to expeditions
ly handle all matters that might
arise in connection with national
defense" Until recently only the
Washington office was open d a y
and night.
The legislation on overlapping,
which the house passed and sent
to the senate, was called "a
legislative Stain monstrosity' by
Rep. Schafer (R-Wis). He said the
measure would permit FBI agents
to "enter every home with a tele.
hone"
The legislation would require
specific authorization by the attorn-
ey general before wires could be
tapped. Any evidence obtained,
other than that sought under the
proposed law, would be barred
from the courts.
Attorney General jackson told
the house judiciary committee that
the legislators objective was
clearly commendable." 4
