Fair Bluff
Demands Power
Improvements

"PromiSes, sweet talk and back
patting' won't take the place of
electric current, irate Fair Bluff
business men informed the Tide
Water Power company this week,
declaring that Friday nights hour
and As minute break in the cleo
trio supply was the straw that
broke the camelS back.
Acting as a direct result of
the Friday night power cut
off. a delegation of Fair Bluff
citizens called on Town At
torney j. K. Powell asking
that he prepare a petition re-
questins the State Utilities
Commission to declare Tide
Waters franchise with the
town void unless better SER
vice is provided this area
Immediately.
It was understood that an at
tempt would be made to get
every power user in town to
sign the petition and that the
paper would be presented the
Utilities board by a sizeable
delegation.
Comforting with Attorney
Powell Tuesday were c. B.
Townsend, president of the To-
bacco Board of Trade; Lawrence
Minton, member of the town
board; Bob King Of the school
board: Pelham Renfrow, pres
ident of the Fair Bluff Civitan
club; and l. M. Scott represent
ing merchants and business
men.
Spokesman for the committee
said that two of the demands
that would be made of Tide
Water Power company if it is to
keep its franchise is that it pro-
vide additional current to meet
the towns growing needs and
that it provide full time main
tenance and repair man in Fair
Bluff to service Fair Bluff and
Cerro Gordo lines.
Friday nights power break
down caused the Scotty theatre
to turn away large crowds from
what was described by the
management as ''the best feature
we've had in a month"
Other recent power fail
ures have repeatedly burned
out electric motors at Gran
tham's Market. J. T. Ellis Su-
per Market and Scott Motor
company. In addition. instan-
ces have been reported of pow
er failure burning out water
pumps and refrigerators.
Local business men were
quick to point out that it was
not Friday nights power fail
ure alone or any recent power
failure that has brought about
the mass uprising against the
power company but that recent
instances have been the Gull
mination of many months and
years of what they termed in
sufficient service.
Cited as one instance that suf-
ficient power is not coming in
10 Fair Bluff was the fact that
the new cotton gin now being
built on the outskirts of town
will have 10 be powered bv diesef
engine because Tide Water could
not furnish enough current to op-
crate the gin by electricity.

Water Expansion Proposed Here

sidewalks but that the need
for WatcrWorks improvements
IS urgent.
Those attending the meeting
expressed themselves as in ia
vor Of calling for a bond cleo
ton 10 improve the water
system and many declared
they thought the town should
go whole hog and try to
borrow enough money to bring
the system up to par with the
growing needs Of the town
rather than Just put enough
money into the project TO get
by for The time being.
The two present town wells
are pumping water at the
rate Of so and 10 gallons per
minute and the 40-gallon well
is likely to 60 out of oper-
alton al any time, the mayor

half of Mrs. Num- as Il compel
ent welfare superintendent.
The board was asked for q

cided 10 swallow their pride to
some extent and pass q budget
appropriation for the welfare
department along with other
budgets in order TO keep some
900 to 1000 innocent persons
from suffering as they would if
funds were not provided for this
department.
"This does not mean that the
commissioners have in any way
nor to any extent changed their
opinion toward the present well
fare administration, nor have
they faltered in their determine
ton to obtain a new welfare Of
ficer, and the commissioners
are satisfied that Columbus
County will have new welfare
officer in the near future, very
| possibly within 80 days"
