A New Duplin' is in the offing if we will take advantage of it. These - opportunities are not wishful thinking or dreams,, I ' Thev are realities. '"We have "accused ourselves in the past of wanting something for our county. and ; communities but'not getting anything because we expected a fairy to come along and df op an industry down into our lap. . That is almost what is about to happen to Warsaw and possibly Kenansville, Mag- tooUa aridBeulaville. But it isn't quite all that easy. .We are hot being asked to purchase stock in a new business or to guarantee anything but adequate housing facilities and adequate labor, i As I said last week my hat is off to Aubrey Cave-. naugh of Warsaw. Governor Scott named him to the Department of Conservation and development. Some of us at first felt Aubrey could and would drop a new industry into Duplin by magic but it didn't and couldn't happen that way. Aubrey has begged and pleaded with leaders in the various communities to prepare themselves and go out after something, promising the full cooperation of his department. It seems we have hot done our part at home; The folks in Wallace got busy and secured a textile plant and maybe that has pointed the way for Warsaw. Last .week we announced a new dress factory coming to Warsaw. This didn't just happen. - Aubrey Cavenaugh pointed the way and the Warsaw business men, lead by John Jen kins and Aubrey; and a few others grabbed at the opportunity and made the dream come true, i ; This week Mayor G. S. Best of Warsaw called the Times and asked us to urge the white women of Duplin (white women are' '.the only ones eligible for this particular plant) to take advantage of the op portunity and make application fdr work in this . factory. Mr. Best, in his usual foresightedness, pointed that the Top Mode Manufactunng Com : pany of Pennsylvania, that ,is moving one of its plants to Warsaw, will become interested in mov l ing their entire operations to Warsaw or-sojmQ; other Duplin town if adequate labor can be secured. ;If IK' this instance can reveal, by applications, sufficient labor available there is a chance that Top Mode will' move all their Derations to Dunlin and ethers will y.y: follow suit U wVcan fifterftr thehf by; actual record -x : tnax sumcient labor is avauabie. - we are miormea t f : viathe grape vine that one of the nation's top man ; ufacturers of hats and one of the largest woolen : industries in the nation have their eyes on Duplin. ' They want to know how much labor is available f first. Read the ad of Top Mode and the ad of Quinn- I McGowen and Warsaw Furniture Company in this issue ladies and be .sure and apply for a job. If youV apply it doesn't mean you have to accept the job if conditions are not favorable at the time.' We want -; . as ihany applications "as possible so that we can show Top Mode and the other interested industries '. that Duplin County is the place for them to locate. '4 Duplin already has awakened, let's get on the ;' 4 mbve. This is the time every available potential 5' 0, laborer can do her part to build a bigger and greater , St 3 Duplin. Maybe the wage price listed doesn't exactly : 0 : suit you. If not those matters may be straightened r out later; Let it be known you are available Now! ; Local Banker Returns Rutgers For 2nd Session Grad School Of Banking M. F.

The company pui Into operation its second 100,000 horsepower unit at Quaker Neck on the Neuse , river, giving me Goldsboro plant a capacity of one billion kilowatt hours a year. This amount is about equal to the an nual consumption of 833,000 aver age homes in tne urscL. system. Representatives from Eastern Carolina news Darners and radio sta tions toured the plant in small srouus with oatient guides whoutxr olalned each step, in the operation. Then they luncnea.at tne oios bolro Conory jClub n4 Kwb- arded Louis Siitton, President of th Company and, other officers and engineers with questions. . ; The newplant should give much better service to Duplin County and surrounding areas but will noV result in cheaper power. The coast al area will also be benefited by the completion of the new 100,000 horsepower unit at LumDerton, and the construction of a plant at Wil mington. President Sutton said that the R E A had done a fine job and that' they should stick to the job for which they were cre ated that of taking power to re mote rural sections where privately owned companies cannot get. REA buys power from the CP&L at 71-2 mills per killowatt hour, but pow er from the new government hy dro-plant at Buggs Island will cost 9 mills to produce. The Goldsboro plant cost approximately Szu.OuO,. 000 to build, while the Buggs Island project will cost the government, and the - U. S. Taxpayer nearly S100.000.000. Furthermore, i the yearly capacity of the steam plant at Quaker Neck will be one billion kilowatt hours, while the max mum that can be expected from Buggs Island in an average year will be about 410,000. In ai dry year, ' this wattage will drop to about 200,000 kilowatt hours. j AU the power capacity of these new CP&L plants will not be im mediately utilized but will be avail able for industries which will, de velop now that the power- is here. The plant itself Is huge, colossal, almost frightening. It is a be wildering maze of catwalks, pipes, boilers, r pulverizers, pumps, con densers generators. In places the 'heat from the. uninsulated pipes was overpowering, and the contrast in the air conditioned control room was a sharp and keenly felt one. Even the figures that the guides and the engineers used were as tronomical, impossibl to visualize in every day terms. It was a plea sure, to have them translated into figures that made some sense to me by Louis Sutton who pointed out the highlights of the structure. From' him. I learned simple .facts that were comprehensible that three fourths of a kilowatt equals one horsepower, and that In an ef ficient steam plant like the one at will Vuaxer neck, iu,ouo htu s ' CONTINUED ON BACK i Rones Chapel Section Cue Telephone Siictipri( Rones , Chapel will, have tele phones "almost Immediately" if they want them.
