M. Owen, Route 7, Marshall, requested the following letter to Mr. Charles Tolley, acting manager of French Broad EMC, be published in The News-Record this week. This we are doing. This newspaper contacted Mr. Tolley and his reply to Mr. Owen was also submitted for publication this week. Both letters follow: Nov. 15, 19756 An open letter to Mr Charles R. Tolley, Acting manager of French Broad Electric Membership Corporation Dear Sir: In the October issue of Carolina Country, the editor stated that the Novwtiber issue would contain an article opposing nuclear power, in response to the pro-nuclear article by Carl Walske which appeared in the September issue. This article against nuclear power was prepared by Mr Henry T Harrison, a meteorologist of the Asheville area It was published in the November Carolina Country in other areas of the state, but was left out of the French Broad edition We, and many of our neighbors in Madison County who face the possibility of a nuclear plant at Sandy Mush, had been looking forward to reading the other side of this extremely important issue We were disappointed and puzzled that this article was left out instead of another of less importance Whatever the views of E M C officials on this question, the purpose of Carolina Country Mrst Union Gi"CsVu TIic Advantage.

IW:I UHHliMfa Im Bra tM Arweunm iiim mil m im Mp mm ami m IIm'i hM Cb DEPEND ON EACH OTHER To The Editor should be to educate, not to put out propaganda for the nuclear industry. Everyone agrees that we cannot do without electricity and everyone knows that it is becoming expensive more and more to produce and transmit. Members of the French broad E.M.C. pay high for their power and, being members of the Corporation, should have a say in all of its affairs, impartial, and ac curate information about important issues in its publication, so that its membership can make up its mind about them. For the sake of fairness, we urge that Mr. Harrison's article be published in the December French Broad edition of Carolina Country. Sincerely, Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Owen Rt. 7 Marshall, N.

French Broad Electric Membership Corporation has been allowed two pages in the CAROLINA COUNTRY to communicate with our membership. However, we do not have the authority to state what two pages in the magazine will be used for this communication That authority as does the editorial comments and responses to your letter lies with the editor of the CAROLINA COUNTRY magazine. Wefwill contact Mr. Owen Bishop, Editor of the CAROLINA COUNTRY, and find out why the "Carolinians for Safe Energy" response was not printed in the November French Broad Edition of the CAROLINA COUNTRY and forward that information to you as soon as possible. We are definitely concerned with the conservation of energy and development of any new sources of electrical energy; however, we do not feel that we are qualified to express an expert opinion on the pros and cons of nuclear energy at this time We can assure you we will strive to treat any information published by this office as fairly and as honestly as we possibly can It has been the feelings of the Board of Directors and management of French Broad EMC for some time that the CAROLINA COUNTRY does not serve our specific needs as well as a newsletter published by French Broad personnel Therefore, as indicated in the November issue of CAROLINA COUNTRY, French Broad EMC will not subscribe to CAROLINA COUNTRY as of January 1, 1976, but will publish its own newsletter. If w can be of any further service to you, please let us know. Sincerely yours, French Broad Electric Memb. Corp. Charles R.
