I natural gas system ha.s received;
notice of Federal Power Commls-!
Sion approval of an increase In
' iU daily gas allotment for the!
1 year begining November I, 1970,1
I of 210.000 cubic feet. ■
1 The additional allotment raises
to 4,100 MCF daily the city’s gas
’ allotment.
I Transcontinental Gas Pipeline
I Company, from whom the city
buys gas, said the new allotment
I also provides a peaking service
] contract of 200.000 additional
i cubic feet. Notification in advance
i of need for the gas, most custo-
, tinary during very cold weather,
enables the city to maintain its
current peak load factor. The ad-
; ditional gas co.sts a premium.
’ Mayor John Henry Moss bom-
mented, "The city is highly
plca.sed to obtain the additional
allotment. Projections of increase
' in usage of gas indicate the add
ed allotment will be needed."

Fall From Horse
Fatal To Jones
My son, who is serving as a
private first class in Hte Army in
Viet Nam, wrote to me on Febru
ary 21st and set forth his views
on a subject that I believe all
people in this section .should
know about.
I had told him in a lidter that
Basil Whitener was running for
Congress during the coming elec
tions. He said in his Ic'tter:
"Be sure and go out and hoop
it up for Basil Whitener. Don’t let
him lose this time. All I can do
over here is v'ote, .so get out and
campaign for him.”
"When they start opening up
Democratic shops and stuff in
town and sending out letters get
in on it. Get to working for the
Democratic Party sending out lit
erature and campaigning. Wc got
lo get Whitener in.”
r b(*lieve that folks will be in-
tere.sted in my son’s attitude and
concern. We all know that Basil
Whitener served in the military
service for more than three years
and from that service has a great
interest in and knowledge of the
problems of the servk'o man and
his family. He has fought for our
country in war and the veterans
in the j'ears he served in Con
gress.
Yours truly,
Mrs. J. R. Carson. Jr.
