Mrs. Blackmon
Is Honored
During the 8th grade promotion
exercises at Silverstreet School
recently, Area Supt. J. G. Long
presented a $50 bill to Mrs. Mat-
tie Lou Blackmon, a gift from
the faculty and students, in appre
ciation for the faithful and effec
tive services she had rendered the
school during her many years as
teacher.
Mrs. Blackmon has taught first
grade in the school 34 years. She
taught third grade the first year
she was in the system.
Roger Longshore, on behalf of
the eight grade, presented a check
to the school to be applied on a
tape recorder. Mrs. Blackmon, on
behalf of the faculty, accepted the
check with appropriate remarks.
COMMENTS ON MSN ...
(Continued from Page 2)
consume enormous quantities o f
fuel; but unlike steel mills, the
utilities have dual purpose burners
that can use either fuel.
On April 1 the Department of
Interior raised East Coast import
quotas on residual oil to 506,889
barrels daily for the next twelve
months, a 9 per cent gain from the
preceding 12 months. The price of
the fuel had been cut 10 cents a
barrel early this year in anticipa
tion of the increased quota and
was dropped another 10 cents af
ter the raise became effective.
Since one ton of coal is usually
balanced against 4.3 barrels of fuel
oil for price comparisons, the oil
price cuts were equivalent to 86
cents a ton of coal. That more
than offsets a 10-cent-a-ton re
duction coal producers agreed to
give utilities in a 12-month con
tract that took effect April 1.
At the same time, coal is being
hit mostly in the Midwest, by the
customary switchover to natural
gas by some utilities which occur
when warm weather and lessened
heating demand permit gas com
panies to offer large users bar
gain rates.”

Prosperity, S. C. Chapin, S. C.
Now we seriously study Atomic
power. And, as you know, four of
our Southern Companies are build
ing an atomic plant in South
Carolina. You’ve heard of this
great project now under construc-
tio nby The South Carolina Elec
tric & Gas Co., The Carolina Pow
er & Light Co., The Duke Power
Co., and The Virginia Electric and
Power Co.
“The drive to develop cheap
atomic power finally seems to be
making some solid progress.
Next month, Yankee Atomic El
ectric Co. is expected to report
that electricity produced by its
proptotype nuclear plant at Rowe,
Mass., cost 20% less than the most
1 optimistic original estimates. The
] report will cover the first 18
' months of the plant’s operation.
Across the land, Pacific Gas &
Electric Co., predicts that a 325,-
000-kilowatt atomic plant it plans
to start building this year at Bo
dega Bay, Calif., will generate
power at a slightly lower cost than
a comparable conventional plant.
The cost figures from Yankee
Atomic and Pacific Gas mainly re
flect a number of modifications in
equipment design and operating
techniques ,rather than any single
dramatic break-through. These ad
vances are significent enough to
prompt some once-skeptical util
ities to take a serious look at pro
posals for big atomic power plants
as commercial ventures. ^
In atomic power plants the heat
energy created by the fission of
uranium in a nuclear reactor is
used to make steam to turn an
electric generator.
Last September, Jersey Central
Power & Light Co. of Morristown,
N. J., called for proposals on an
atomic plant which would gene
rate at least 400,000 kilowatts by
1966. An official of the Edison
Electric Institute, a utility trade
group, comments: ‘A year ago, it
would have been inconceivable that
some one would be considering
that atomic power could be com
petitive in New Jersey.’
Three Connecticut utilities
jointly announced about two
months ago that they were con
sidering the building of an atomic
plant with capacity of 350,000 kilo
watts or more. The firms have
formed the Nutmeg Electric Com
panies Atomic Project and expect
to start construction in 1964 and
complete work by 1967.
The city of Los Angeles expects
to decide this summer whether to
build an atomic plant in the 300,-
000 to 400,000-kilowatt range. The
decision is pending an Atomic
Energy Commission opinion on a
proposed site for the power sta
tion.
Fred Fletcher, president of the
Sierra Pacific Power Co. of Reno,
Nev., says the utility probably
will decide within 18 months
whether to build an atomic plant
of perhaps 100,000 ‘watching the
costs of the new nuclear plants
very carefully’ to see if a 100,000
kilowatt atomic plant might be
warranted for the island of Oahu.
Atomic power stations are near
ing completion at Indian Point, N.
Y., Lagoona Beach and Big Rock
Point, Mich., Hallam, Neb., Sioux
Falls, S. D., and Humboldt Bay,
Calif. These plants, some of them
built with Government financial
help, are intended mainly to serve
as protototypes for future com
mercial atomic plants.
Despite all this activity, com
mercially-justified atomic power
plants are still only far-removed
possibilties for many sections of
the country. Most of the commer
cial projects under consideration
are limited to areas where the
prices of conventional power fuels
are relatively high. And even
many of these proposals couid be
abandoned unless reactor makers
can convince the utilities that they
can match or better the cost of
conventional power plants. So far,
neither the Yankee plant nor the
two other major prototype atomic
power stations now in operation
have been able to do this, nor
were they expected to.
The results at Yankee, however,
are perhaps the most encouraging
since the civilian atomic power
program was launched in 1954
with the Government’s blessing
and support. When Westinghouse
Electric Corp. started work on the
plant in 1958 it was expected that
the cost of electricity might be 12
to 14 mills per kilowatt hour.
‘And that was only after four or
five years of operation.’
Instead, the cost since the plant
went into full operation in No
vember, 1960, has been about 9.5
mills per kilowatt hour, officials
say. They figure the power cost
of a new, conventional steam
plant in New England would rur
about 8 mills per kilowatt hour.
A cartoon caption says a long
trip proves one thing: “We’re way
ahead of the Russians in empty
been can production.”
