CUSTOMERS GET TAKEN,
COMING AND GOING

To add insult to injury, the private
utilities will be permitted to charge
their customers a SO or better ire
turn" on the very money that is col
lected from their customers for taxes
which the utility doesn't have to pay
to the government.
This exact procedure was also ap-
proved by the FPC in connection with
the tax amortization subsidy in eff
feet since 1850.
Only one dissent was raised to the
decision on the 5-man FPC. Commits
sioner w. R. Connole said the ruling
is contrary to the intent of Congress,

Utilities To Get Gigantic
New Federal Tax Subsidy

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(NFU)-The
Federal Power Commission, now con-
trolled by pro-utility commissioners
favorable to the Eisenhower partner
ship" power policy, has ok'd a new
tax subsidy for utility companies
which is truly stupendous.
FPC staff counsel A. R. Spalter, who
argued against commission approval
of the new subsidy, pointed out that
the subsidy would cost users of cleo
tricity SIS billion in SO years time il
utility companies continue to expand
at the same rate as in 1854.
This would be above and beyond
the rates required to pay all operating
expenses of the companies plus profits
at fair rate of return" on the COM
pany investment.
This gold mine for private utilities
was built into the 1854 tax law. AS
the FPC's ruling now stands, utility
companies will be permitted to charge
their customers for federal taxes which
the companies will not be required
to actually pay to the government for
many years. The FPC ruling was made
in the Amere Gas Co. case.

GOVERNOR COMING

Governor Hodges is coming next
week to speak to the Columbus county
teachers and their guests at the local
school cafeteria. It's distinct honor
to have the popular Governor visit in
Tabor City.
AS far as we can remember, this
is the first time that Governor Hodges
has made a public address in the
county since becoming our States
chief executive. Hundreds of people
would like to hear him talk here but
with the seating capacity of the new
cafeteria only 375, only that number
will be so privileged. Even at that,
the cafeteria is one of the largest in
the county.
Governor Hodges is perhaps the
most universally popular chief exec
tives the Tar Heel State has had in
many decades. Proof of that lies in
the fact that he virtually has no COM
petition in the coming Democratic
primary. NJ any highly regarded
Democrats wanted to run for Cover
nor but they saw little chance of beat
ing Mr.. Hodges and thus did not file
The candidates who did file against
him have little or no public support
or appeal and have no chance of I'M
seating Mr.. Hodges from the Cover
nor's chair.
We extend hearty welcome to him
on his visit and can say with sincerity
that he rates among North Carolina s
great Governors. He is a thinking man
with business bayN:rvun.

Editorials . . L.

poration now, including the $1400
loaned to the project by stockholders
in the form of notes, is about $4,000.
The corporation has $1l00 in the
bank and a contract with the State
of North Carolina for $500 for the
land used in widening highway 7O1
on the projects property.
This is equivalent to $4,000 in cash
and puts the corporation within $4,000
of being out of debt. This compares
with figures in excess of $4,000 a
year ago. And on top of this en-
enlargement is the fact that ten new
boats have been bought and paid for
and the real season for taking in some
money is just around the corner.
There have been some minor dis
agreements since the project started
as there always will be when an Or
ganlzation of this MAGNITUDE is form
ed. But right now there seems to be
little confusion, disagreement or split
opinion. The project appears to be
headed for another year of progress
The nearly 200 stockholders in the
corporation come from all local walks
of life. They come from town and
country. They are farmers, business
men and professional men. All have
one objective - greater recreational
facilities for themselves, their fami-
lies and the people of the community.
1t is truly a noteworthy project
and one that should forever go down
IN the annals of our history as among
the greatest ever undertook.
