* SAYS *
• MORGANTON _ October 18th'
1 was a great day for Western North
. Carolina when ground was broken
. for the Carolina Power and Light
. Company’s new 250.000 horsepower
steam-electric generating plant at
Skyland. Mrs. Ervin«and I were
’ privileged to attend the ceremony,
i The drive by automobile from Mor
, ganton to Skyland gave me the
( opportunity to see the mountains
l arrayed in all of their fall splendor,
and to recall John Charles McNeil’s
. poem on “October** which space
does not permit me to quote. The
ceremony began promptly at 11 a
1 M. on a 760-acre tract just west of
Skyland and east of the French
I Broad River where the new plant
> will soon rise to the height of a
- 16-story building. Makers outlined
the rite of a 300-acre lake which
I will provide water for the plant A
i 1.000 foot dam will cross the valley
, in an area of unsurpassed beauty.
. In normal operation the new plant
will produce enough electricity to
? serve 200.000 Western North Caro
j lina families. Recreation facilities
will proride public areas when the
project is completed.
1 POWER FOR CAROLINA —My
remarks on the occasion recalled
’ to my mind the vast impact which
1 electricity has had in the twentieth
> century on the homes of this coun
' try. Perhaps this cm be best illus
trated by fancying that by a whim
1 of the Creator it was decreed one
day that all electricity would cease
■ to work. If this happened in a typi-
■ cal. North Carolina home during
I the evening, the television set would
I flicker off, darkness would settle
1 over the house, and soon the occu
pants would shiver from cold be-
'■ cause the electrical controls of the
!■ furnace would cease to function.
When morning dawned there would
THE COASTLAND TIMES, MANTEO, N. C.
be no milk and no newspaper on
the front porch, and what started
as a series of mere inconveniences
would grow during the day into ser
ious trouble and would end in a
national emergency. Not only do
North Carolinians ' receive these
services from electricity, but many
other aspects of our society are
built from taxation on- the proper
ty, plants, and facilities of the
electric power industry. Private in
vestor owned North Carolina power
companies contribute millions in
tax revenues and throughout the
country investor owned power com
panies contribute $2.4 billions in
Highways, schools, colleges, health
facilities, and all facets of govern
ment are supported by an industry
that Britain’s future Prime Minis
ter Gladstone condemned in 1831 as
of no use. That day Mr. Gladstone
was being shown through the elec
trical laboratory of Michael Fara
day, one of the industry’s fore
fathers, and asked Faraday, “But
after all, what good is electricity?”
Faraday replied: “Why, sir, one day
you will tax it”
HYDE N.F.A. GROUP
ATTENDS STATE FAIR
Members of the O. A. Peay chap
ter of New Farmers of America
made a trip to the State Fair as a
phase of the instructional program
of the Vocational Agriculture De
partment. Eighteen members of the
local chapter received instructions
and a first hand look at activities
such as pure breeds of livestock
grown and some of the advantages
and disadvantages involved in the
production and marketing.
Phases of producing livestock was
presented to persons in attendance
ion a limited scale and along with
the production and marketing was
the matter of competing with
others of a similar nature from
different parts of the state.
Other things of interest were
the educational exhibits displayed
in the fields of agriculture, ed
tion and industry.
The group demonstrated great in
terest and has been inspired toward
working hard on their individual
projects to display them at the
State Fair in the future. They were
under the supervision of M. J.
Rodntree, agriculture teacher.
