Duncan Matthews ATTORNEY AT LAW SOUTHERN PINES Stanley 'Winborne of Murfreesboro has assumed his new position as Pub lic Utilities Commissioner, created by the 1933 General Assembly, and at the same time the former Corporation Commission and two of its members, Chairman W. T. Lee and Judge George P. Pell, passed from the scene of pub lic service. Commissioner Winbourne will take over the numerous duties in regula tion of railroads, power companies, gas and electric light companies, street railways, telephone and tele graph companies, bus and truck lines, enforcing the “blue sky” laws and ser ving as a member of the State Board of Assessment. These are the same duties performed by the three-man commission, formed in 1891 as the Railroad Commission and reorganized in 1892 as the Corporation Commis sion. Mr. Winborne is the youngest mem ber of the body, having taken the place made vacant by the appointment of A. J. Maxwell as Commissioner of Revenue. Chairman Lee has served 23 years and Judge Pell 21 years and both had several years of their six- year unexpired terms when their jobs were abolished by the legislature in its plan of reorganization. The personnel is expected to remain as it has been for the present. tomotive taxes. Largely, this increase can be attributed to better business, although a part of it comes from in creased rates in the general fund.
