GEORGIA POWER COMPANY TO CONSTRUCT RURAL LINES Atlanta, Ga., March 20.—A mil- • lion dollar program for the construe- । tion of 800 miles of rural electric , lines to serve more than 3,400 farm j homes was announced today by P. j । S. Arkwright, president of the Geor- । gia Power Company. Os the 800 miles of new lines, it is hoped that 510 miles, serving 2,-h 400 farms, can be constructed during i, 1944. The remaining 290 miles will ’ be built as soon as conditions per- i mit. । Approval of the War Production | Board for each of the various proj- 1 ects will be required before it can be । undertaken. Copper, aluminum and , other critical materials are needed ] for the construction of electric lines i and their use is sharply limited, Mr. । Arkwright said. The WPB, in au- । thorizing new rural lines, gives pref- । ercnce to those which will contribute । most toward increasing the nation’s \ ] food supply. Mr. Arkwright ex-1] pressed the hope that the 510 miles i of new lines scheduled for construe- ^ tion in 1944 will be regarded as cs- ] sential to the war effort through the contribution they will make to Geor- i [ gia’s food production. Projects included in the program ] are located in all sections of the i state where the Georgia Power Com- ( pany supplies electric service. The Company maintained an ac- 1 tive program of rural line construe- i tion up to 1941, when wartime con- , ditions forced this activity to be dis- ] continued. At present, 63,000 con- । sumers on farms and in rural com- < munities are served from 4,500 miles ] of rural electric lines of the Georgia § Power Company. ( TRUCK CROPS WEATHER COLD | Athens, Ga., March 22.—The cold । weather earlier this month caused ] very little, if any, damage to fruit ] 'and track crops in Georgia but' । heavy rains have delayed planting । operations, the Crop Reporting Ser- j vice said today. Excessive rainfall damaged some i of the snapbean plantings in south j Georgia. The report said a fourth ] of the cabbage crop in south Geor- ( gia has gone to seed rather than ] heading, due to warm damp wea- । ther, which speeded up vegetative ( growth. Except for the Portuguese and i Spanish colonies, every part of As-. rica is involved in th« war. _ I WVWWVWWWWWWWWWWWISWVWWMAMMAAnAfWWWWW Alamo | Theatre PROGRAM ;: VWWWWVWWVWWWWVWWWVIiWWWWVWWWVVVW < Saturday March 25 “SONG of TEXAS,” Featuring that one ;! ; and only King of the Cowboys ROY ;i ; ROGERS, with all his gang.
