Y. (UP) An ambu lance was taking a prospective mother to the hospital when it ran out of gasoline. The trip was completed, ahead of the stork, when the woman's hus band pushed the ambulance with his automobile. Investigation disclosed that thieves had siphoned most of the gasoline from the ambulance. Headlights Lure Deer To Traffic Suicide MERCER, Pa. (UP) Pennsyl vania deer, protected from hunt ers by law, are engaging In unre strained self-destruction on high ways at night. The deer, attracted by aproach Ing headlights, often step right up to the grillwork of a car moving at '40 to 50 miles an hour. Cars sometimes are seriously sinmnoprl nnrl HrlvPTv hnrilv hurt, in collisions with deer. No more checking back into the office td pick up service complaints. Troubleshooters of Carolina Power & Light Company now are Equipped with office-to-truck and truck-to-truck radios. Upper left, a divisional maintenance man calls a truck ten miles away. Below, a lineman gets the message. Right, the crew is on the job, put ting Juice in a remote farmhouse which In the old days might have been blacked out for a: couple of days. Carolina Power Using 2-Way Radio To Speed Up Work Science aids science nowadays In maintenance' of electrical ser vice. After three years of experi ence with a two-way radio system, Carolina Power & Light officials say the truck to of fife, truck . to truck communications program has speeded up service more than 100 per cent. In divisional offices throughout North and South Carolina are transmitters over which flow a constant stream of messages to trouble-shooters In the field. Be fore 1947, a maintenance truck might do nn emergency job ten miles from town, come back to re port, and go back within a few hundred yards of the place it had ust left to do more work. Those days are gone forever. The radio-equipped maintenance trucks now get assignments while on the job or on the road. ; Greatest asset of the system Is In handling emergencies which fre quently come from unpredictable causes. Recently in Asheville, an automobile hit a pole knocking o,ut a main line. Through the use of the1 radio system, the entire con struction facilities of the area were mobilized to make repairs, and a power interruption which might Remember the story of the Sirens? They sang of their beautiful, trouble-.. free paradise. But passing ships that ventured too near soon found them selves on the rocks. j Sirens aren't lost in legend some are still around, still singing a beautiful song: "Unload your troubles and responsibilities on the government's shoulders. Give the government con trol of this industry- and that service and your worries are over." Your liberties re over, too, for that's how a socialistic form of government takes over a nation. Don't 'think it can't hapten to Amer ica. Because right here, right now, there are people who say: "Let the govern- ment control the doctors, the railroads . the newspapers, the electric light and power companies. Government control is good for the people!" It's strange, but true, that many people who say such things like most r Americans don't really wavt a social- j istic government, But the effect is the ( i same. When a government controls enough industries and services, a social-' istic nation is the result whether feofte want it or not! Each time government gains a new . control, you lose another freedom. And Americans have more rights and free-j : doms to guard or lose than any othei nation on earth. Remember that, when you hear the Siren song. Your freedom is at stakel "MEET CORLISS ARCHER" tt MM Mimrf,. CBS, Svtidoyt, t KM., E.i.rfl TiW (CAnoiirJA poiycn o lioht company) less than 45 minutes. One of the advantages of instan taneous communications which might not be obvious to the public Is the fact that when such an in terruption occurs, one of the time losing factor is the fact that all employes working on the job must be notified that the breakage has been repaired and that all linemen must stand away before the line can be made "hot' again. With the radio system, it Is simple to check all maintenance men, and the electricity can be poured back on the line in a matter of minutes rather than hours. A substantial saving in time also results when a power break occurs at an unknown point. Trucks are mobilized to run down the trouble When one crew finds the break, it radios to the oithers to cease the hunt, relieving them for other duty Manager H. M. Burleson of the local office of Carolina Power & Light Company, recited an instance when a housewife had electric line trouble. It so happened that a CP&L truck was Just around the corner from her house, and the crew got the complaint while she was still talking. She told the ser vice dispatcher to hold on a minute while she answered a ring at the door. The good lady almost fell on her face when she saw the familiar red and brown truck in front of her have lasted for hours was cured in house.
