New Third District Nime,
Capital City politicians nttuch one
hundred per cent plausibility and half
s much possibility to the story coming
from Goldsboro Hint Mai.ir Matt Allen
is going to run for Congress licit time
.against Alernethy and Brinsnn. Major
Allen hits bcn in France junt n little
. ' hit longer than a great many North
Carolina soldiers and the report ii that
he is anxious to get buck and get in
touch with Tar ,'loel affairs, particularly
affairs concerned with the job of rep
resenting nine Eastern Carolina comi
ties in the National House Of Kcprc
. . aentatives.
Mr Abrrnfthy passing through Ra
leigh yesterday on Ins way to Wash
ln:,ton, hopes the report is correct. He
would, he anid last night, lie glud to sue
Major Allen in the race. Ho avows that
h has more friends ready to pick up
the trail where he left it' last October
. than he did when he stopped at the re
; quest of the National Committee.
Senator Hurry Htubbs, hearting the
Wllluimston delegation that appealed
before the Highway Commission, also
"declares" that he feels called upon to
. nuke the race for Lieutenant Governor
thia time irrespective of whether Frank:
.Hampton, Henutor Rirnmons secretary,
runs or not. Mr. Btubbs ss;.s that he
doesn't want to enter the erntesr
against Mr. Hampton hut intends to le
a eandidato whether or why. W. N.
Everett, of Rockingham, has positively
declared himself out of the race and so
has F. C. Harding, of Greenville, but
Senator Cooper, now scouting in the

tain as theru is a primarv.

Carolina Power and Light Co.
inaugurates New Feature of
. Financial Policy
The Carolina Power and Light Com
pany has announced an offering of its
7 per cent preferred stock at par and
e:r:ied dividend to its consumers and
loc i public ia each community where
the oo m pany operates. This la the first
offering of this nature which ha been
made by the company to the cublie
generally. Colonel Charles E. Johnson,
president of the eoupany, ha issued
the following statement regarding the
object of the eompany in thia depar
ture from its customary practice.
"The purpose of thia offering of our
preferred stock to the public generally
and especially to, our customers, is la
Order to establish partnership relations
between the company, its consumers,'
and such other citizens of the commun
ities in which the company operate as
may desire to iavest in securities of
the company. The company feel that
by establishing such partnership rela
tions with its consumers and other cit
izen that this will promote the inter
eat of the public generally in the util
ity which serves it, and will assist in
promoting cordial relation bewteea
the company and the public. The com
pany also feels that its offering will
prove very attractive to thosa who de
sire a safe investment with a substan
tial return as the stock is preferred
both as to assets and dividend and
cumulative. The annual dividend of
7 per eenf (1 3-4 payable quarterly),
ha been paid regularly ainre the or
ganization of the company. It is the
desire of the company to have the
stock, as largely distributed as possible,
and for this reason it is being offered
either for cash or on a partial payment
plan which will put it within the reach
or everyone. ,
The business of the company hss
grown very rapidly during the past
few years and the territory which it
serves hifs been largely eitended. Such
expanaion and extensions are continu
ally untlcr way and the necessary new
capital for same is provided largely I
through the sale of stock and all pro
ceeds from such sales are used lor' ad
ditions to plants, lines and equipment.
"The company docs not anticipate,
and it is not its desire, to raise any
large amount of capital through the
offering of its stock locally, but it
wishes to have each of it consumers
leei-me a stockholder and such other
members of the publit who may desire
to do in, thus becoming interested in
the affair of the company. Thi plan
has been adopted quite general'y in
recent years by companies desiring to
establish and promote more eordinl re
lation with the communities served.
"The company had planned a simi
tar offering at the outbreak of the war
but deferred making the offering at
that time as it did not wish to offer
its securities in competition in any
wny with the, Liberty Loans."
. me company nss uesmned its offer
ing and the purposes of same in a cir
cular which is being mailed to Its pa
tron, and applications for subscription
are being received through employees
of the company.
