New Power Plant
AT Pomeroy Feeds
Ohio Power Lines

The first turbo-generating unit
at the new Philip Sporn steam
power plant on the Ohio River near
Pomeroy and Point Pleasant is
now feeding energy into the vast
$4,000 volt transmission network
of the American Gas and Electric
Company for the benefit of more
than 1000 communities in seven
states.
A preview of the first of four
huge 1877, 500 kilowatt generating
units was given by The Ohio Pow
er Company and Appalachian Elec-
trio Power Company, joint owners
of the plant and two of the seven
electric utilities which form the
AG&E System.
This new plant is one major COM
ponent in the fve-year 1926, 100000
expansion program which AG&E
undertook in 1947 to assure an
ample future power supply for
more than million customers
which it serves. The cost of the en-
tire four-unit plant is estimated at
$66,000,000. For operation of the
first two units 140 persons will be
employed.
Construction work on the first
two units of the $4,000 kilowatt
four-unit station now authorized,
which started in June, 1949, is
nearing completion. The second
turbo-g generator is expected to go
into service next June. The third
and fourth units are scheduled for
completion in 1852. The plant will
be further expanded to six units
when the system load requires
them.
Embodying the latest skills in
engineering research and design,
this plant will become one of the
worlds largest and most econ
omical producers of electricity
825,000 kilowatts = and produce
power with considerably less than
one pound of coal per kilowatthour.

Hits US Aid To
British Die-hards

London (LPA)-The fact that at
least two US physicians groups
have given money to aid little
group of "die-hards" fight the Bri-
tish medical care program left him
"horrified", Federal Security Ad-
ministrator Oscar Ewing told re-
porters here.
The President Of the American
College of Physicians & Surgeons,
and the Madison County Und.) }
Medical Association have both sent
checks to the British Fellowship
for Freedom in Medicine, a tiny
group representing the five per
cent of British Physicians who OPP
pose the Labor governments pro-
gram, Ewing charged.
The Federal Security Admins
traitor, here to study the workings
of the British plan, said its critics
in the US had tried to mislead the
American people," and that the
plan "is working remarkably WELL"
There are some basic differences
between the British program and
the US health insurance proposal,
Ewing pointed out. In Britain,
most of the cost is paid out of
general tax funds; i'm the US, it
would be financed by employer and
contributions of percent
of payroll. In Britain, hospitals
have been taken over and operated
by public authorities; in the US,
the insurance fund would pay hos
pital bills. In Britain, all are ELI
gible for medical services; in the
US, there would be some income
limits.

Sawyer Proposes Federal
REGULATION For Industries

Washington (LPA) - A strong
argument for federal regulation OF
big, highly concentrated industries
where there is evidence of mono
poly control was made to President
Truman, by Secretary of Commerce
Sawyer, indirectly, in report Dec
13 on the need for regulation OF
transportation Industries.
Sawyer's report dealt entirely
with transportation, but the prin-
ciples he spelled out for measuring
the need of regulating such indus
tries apply with equal force to all
American industry particularly
the heavy goods industries which
are dominated by few big COM
panies-such as steel, electrical
equipment, aluminium, and automo-
biles.
The most important guide-post
in determining whether an indus
try should be regulated, Sawyer
said, was whether it would contri-
butte to preservation for the using
public of adequate, low-cost and
nondiscriminatory service"
Decisions with respect to the
extension or relaxation of regula-
tory CONTROLS" the cabinet officer
added, SHOULD be made on the
basis of the net and ultimate effect
upon the transportation user. A
second standard is that, in those
cases where free competition is
possible, competition is more likely
than regulation to produce the
maximum service at the lowest
cost"
Free competition, Sawyer added
I'm a footnote, means a situation
ain which activities of any indus
trial supplier Of service have only
a negligible effect upon the total
volume of service rendered and the
price which is charged The best
example in the transportation field
is tramp shipping"
Sawyer's report was the greatest
boost yet provided for current eff
forts in Congress to do something
about bigness in business. What
this cabinet officer, who has been
known as a conservative, said, in
effect, was that where a few big
companies dominate an industry
there is not free competition and
there should, therefore, be federal
regulation.
Spelling out what he was talking
about in terms of the transporta-
tion industries, Sawyer said:
"Translating these general state
ments into concrete terms, it isI
obvious that with federal and state
governments. providing airways,
highways, and waterways, the pro-
spect of effective competition
among air carriers, highway car
riers and waterway carriers is far
more real than in the case of rail
roads or pipelines where entirely
new facilities of great cost would
be required if additional competi-
tors entered the field.
I'm the case of air carriers, high
way carriers and the water car
riers, often all that is needed to
create additional service is to sup
ply additional planes, trucks, ships,
or barges. Such facilities as rail
roads and pipelines come much
closer to being natural monopolies
from the standpoint of particular
shippers who use the service than
do other carriers where the basic
facilities are available to all. Ac-

Charity Benefits,
Union Benefits,
Memphis Dances

Memphis, Tenn. (LPA)-For the
second successive year, Memphis
citizens were given an example of
a community service by a labor
union, when more, than 1000 jam
med the Memphis Auditorium for
the 1949 Cavalcade of Music Dec.
ID.
The happy results were: 1000
needy children will get Christmas
gifts; the unions welfare fund
benefited, the union members got
excellent publicity, and will get
professional engagements as re-
suit; 1000 citizens had a marvellous
time.
The union is Local II, American
Federation of Musicians. Cooper
ating were the Memphis Press
Scimitar and the Memphis Cooper
ative Club. There were eight dance
bands, all sorts of hillbilly outfits,
combinations, soloists, specialists,
the Memphis Concert Orchestra
conducted by Noel Gilbert; Smoky
Lanson, popular singer and Mem
phis native, who returned home to
act as master of ceremonies, as he
did last year. There was everything
from Beethoven to bop, hoedown to
Dixieland. There was sweet music
and hot music, waltzes, rumbas,
show tunes and concertos, plus jive.
Three stages were used, the show
took five hours, and about $50
musicians took part, all donating
their services. 1t was great party
for great cause.
Among the attractions were the
orchestras of jim Carey, Owen
Elkins, Collie Stoltz, Art Sutton,
Hilburn (Pappy) Graves an d
Henry Schneider; Freddie Burns
and his Ranch Boys; Smilin' Eddie
Hill; Slim Rhodes and his Noun
taineers; Jamae and her Sextet;
and Billy Boyle's bop combo.
Orville Bond, president of the
Memphis Federation of Musicians,
early in 1948 conceived the idea of
having his musicians perform for a
charity enterprise. He got in touch
with Robert S. Johnson, a reporter
for the Press-Scimitar, which an
nually runs the Goodfellows Fund
for needy children for Christmas.
The two got together, and the 1948
Cavalcade of Music was the result
-one of the greatest dancing part
les Memphis had ever seen. 1t was,
as one paper put it, "a triumph for
the Memphis Federation of Music
ians and for the Individual music
ians who put all their efforts into
the big night of entertainment"
The net proceeds were 5000 for
the charity fund, and $500 for the
unions welfare fund.
AS a result, both the local and
the Individual performers received
extended professional mention. The
Cavalcade served to display the
talents, and number
of radio and other engagements
followed. The Concert Orchestra
created for the occasion remained
a unit and played other engage
ments later, including free park
the following summer, at
city expense.
The 1948 show was experimental,
and it was extraordinary. But the
response was so great that a l949
Cavalcade was inevitable. And now
it appears that the Cavalcade of
Music will be an annual affair-to
the benefit of the city, needy chill
dren at Christmas, and the music
ians' union.

so much more than she and she is
usually flattered by having attract
ed an older man. She doesn't real
ize that half of the time her attrac-
ton for him is that he thinks she
is too young or foolish to protect
herself and is an easy mark.
But if you do go with older men
or with boys for that matter keep
this thought in mind:
+ Don't be persuaded into cheapen-
ing yourself for little bit of popu-
larity. Men are very glib in talking
about how the other girls behave
and making youngster think that
familiarity is common practice.
But they talk among each other and
no one wants a girl who lets down
the bars for his best girl friend. Be-

take you at your own value. If you
hold yourself cheaply, others will
see you the same way and vice

Dear Iouisa:-

Dear. Louisa:-
I am a girl of fourteen and have
been going with a boy of 2I fol
almost a year. We fell out not long
ago because l went with another
boy. He said he wasn't mad but just
didn't want to be made a fool OF
He said he would come back some
time, but do you think | should

other girls. and Boys?
S.. Ava.
Answer: t
I think YOU are too young to be
going "steady" with any one boy
TO the exclusion of every one else
1~realize that school boys and girl:
all over the country have this Gus
tom of going "steady" with one boy
sr girl but l think it is a practice
that leads to lots of trouble. 1t is
all right to like one person better
than others and to have more dates
and your important dates with hin
but this thing Of cutting yourself
off from everyone else before yor
are old enough to know just what
kind of person you will like ter
years from now, is a silly and un.
wise thing.
Another bad thing about your
situation is that you are going with
Il boy too old for you. A fourteen
year old has no business running
around with men and a boy of 21
is really a man and is probably
thinking of getting married before
100 long. You should be going with
boys nearer your own age who have
the same interests that you have.
And too, a girl of fourteen some
times finds it much harder to be-
have herself properly with boy so
much older. She is at a disadvant-
age because she feels that he knows
