This year with the extension of electric lines into the rural sections, Haywood County should be a blaze of light on December the 24th. The movement was started last year by Bernard Mac Fadden, publisher of Liberty, and other magazines of the MacFadden chain "As Amer ica's answer to the 'black-out' threatening the world a black out of freedom as well as light." went over some technical details which will be incorporated in tha plans of the building. - When they left, they said they would be back right after the hol idays, at which time they would have everything in readiness for releasing to contractors, the speci fications and plans for the plant, which A.

With favorable weather, the ar chitect said the plant should be constructed within 90 days, and as the machinery is already bought, and some even crated and ready to be shipped, it would be only a matter of a short time after com pletion of the building until actual plant operations could be begun. The officials assured civic lead ers who have been working w'th them, that no time would be lost in getting the plant pushed to com pletion. "Up until now, has been the talking stage,? Mr. Freedlan der said, "from now on it is ac tion, and plenty of it." Mr. Freedlander also pointed out that this was to be a "Haywood development" and that all mate rials and labor that could be se cured here would be used in, pref erence to any others.
