NORMAN, Kiuixville, Tenn. 11 Decentralization of Industry General Guy E. Tripp, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company, Says: "Automobiles, good roads, and power from electric transmission lines are making possible the location and development of industry at any point. No honker is it necessary for industry to huddle together in the larg er cities. Decentralization of industry has come and industries are now being located in the smaller towns and cities of the country." THE FOREGOING VIEWS BY THIS GREAT CAITAIN OF INDUSTRY ARE SIGNIFICANT OF THE TRJSND OF INDUSTRIAL THOUGHT One hundred and five municipally owned or operated electric light and power plants in twenty-seven States were sold to larger power companies in 1926, making a total of over 1,200 municipal plants sold, abandoned, or shut down wit liin recent years. »' • A. , . * ; * Our Proposal provides that We are to make Available in Williamston A SUPPLY OF UNLIMITED INDUSTRIAL POWER • « k ""' " ' „ ' ' * f . r* ■ . , r- - ' . •• % CAROLINA,, DIVISION VIRGINIA ELECTRIC & POWER COMPANY W.
