'The two greatest stimulants in the world are youth and debt." Benjamin Disraeli A hmihihs The Plymouth Mill Complex - which producces lumber, plywood, treated wood products, wood based chemicals and 2200 tons a day of pulp, paper and paperboard - requires a tremdnous amount -of steam. Steam, due to today’s fuel rates, costs big money. Every opportunity taken to reduce steam requirements or improve the mill steam system results in very Significant savings. Reducing costs, while maintaining Plymouth’s reputation for excellent quality and production, has been one of reasons that the complex has remained oh line when many mills across the industry have had to shutdown due to the poor economic situation. A very good example of mill employees seizing an opportunity to reduce costs was the elimination recently of a problem bottleneck in the mill steam system. Mill engineering, production and maintenance employees solved the problem by coming up with a pressure equalizing line which saves about SI,OOO a day in pur chased electricity costs. That takes a chunk out of the long-term electric bill, and keeps the Plymouth facility more competitive. The Plymouth Fiber Group power and (chemical) recovery department has the task of generating 90 per cent of the mill’s electrical requirements, as well as all of the steam needed in the production processes. That amounts to an average of 1.8-million pounds of steam an hour, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, virtually year-round. In cold weather, mill steam requirements can go up to more than two-million pounds an hour, a tremendous energy cost factor. “We’re proud of the job that our Plymouth em ployees have been doing all along to operate more ef ficiently and reduce costs,” said Paul Schmitt, Plymouth Fiber Group mill manager. “Their continued efforts throughout the mill, such as the modification to the steam system, are especially important today in light of the declining market conditions. “Good ideas and in dividual employee efforts are what keep this mill going, and I’d like to take this oportunity to thank our employees for their ac complishments, and urge THE CHOWAN HERALD their continued cooperation and efforts to make Plymouth the best mill in the industry,” Schmitt added. The Plymouth wood treating plant, currently operating two shifts, set a new one-day production record last week by treating 13 charges in 16 hours. “A” Shift accomplished six charges in eight hours, and “B” Shift topped that mark by treating seven charges during their eight hour shift, a significant accomplishment. A total of more than 228,000 board feet of lumber was treated, which equals 17 truckloads of finished products, a job well done! ■ SI I IIH. . ’ \ ’ Fabric Sale Aunt Lydia's Rug Yarn 70 / HP H yd. skein. 100% Kodel poly- F ■ / ester.

WS4* pop UflipMP Washington Report: By Congressman Walter B. Jones The main topic of con versation for the last few days has been President Reagan’s new budget proposal which, as everyone knows, carries additional cuts for many programs except defense spending. Many Members of Congress, both Democrats and Republicans, feel that the massive defense recommendations could be cut without affecting or diminishing our ability to defend ourselves if the need should arise. There comes a point in funding where any Department or Agency if appropriated too much money cannot spend it judiciously or wisely. And historically, the ap propriation process has been the victim of far too many who find at the end of the fiscal year they have unused funds and try desperately to expend all that has been appropriated before the year ends for fear they will not receive the full requested appropriation for the next fiscal year. I am not necessarily suggesting that this is true of the military, but if it isn’t true, they would be the exception rather than the rule. Therefore, again, many feel that defense should bear part of the suggested cuts in order to avoid the huge deficit which is now ap parent. This is not to be construed as my being antimilitary; on the con trary, the record will show that during my years in Congress, I have always supported what I consider an adequate defense ap propriation. The action on the House Floor has been very limited since convening on January 23. This is not to suggest that the Congress isn’t busy; for an example, last week as Chairman of the House Budget Proposals Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, I conducted full meetings for three days. On the first day the Law of the Sea Treaty, which is under con sideration by several nations, was discussed and as a result it appears that a great amount of com promise must be secured by this country from other nations before entering into any such agreement. Two days were spent in Sub committee - one, con sidering the authorization for the Coast Guard for fiscal year 1983, and the CORNS?
