Dear Editor
My only reason for writing Is that
I am interested in the forthcoming
power bond issue because I am a
taxpayer in the City of Tulla
I have studied this proposed Issue
carefully and am fully persuaded
that if it is voted it would save the
taxpayers many a dollar in the
future
If a public utility can make money
by furnishing a city electricity
and it is not going to furnish electricity
unless it can make money
why cant the city do the same
thing
A study ot the citys published reports
shows beyond a doubt that
profit from the city power plant has
been helping to run the city This
means that had we not had the
powed plant the revenue would have
had to be raised by taxation If we
go out of the power business where
arc we going to get the money
which has in the past come from
this source Where are we going to
get the money to operate our streetlights
and water wells
Any clear thinking taxpayer knows
It would have to come from a property
tax
Regardless of what we do Saturday
we will still have to pay the
present 155000 which we owe on
the plant We will still have to improve
our distribution system regardless
of where we get our power
So actually we ar cgoing to have to
raise approximately half of the proposed
issue whichever step we take
We are going to be using more
and more electricity all the time
Some have mentioned that atomic
power will in the future make our

THE TULIA Swisher County HERALD
present equipment obsolete We have
been told by good authority that
atomic power is going to be extremely
expensive for many many years
so expensive that it may not become
practicable for years to come However
even if it made It possible to
get electricity for nothing wouldnt
the public service company as well
as the city bo In the same boat
Wouldnt the public service company
have more to lose than the city and
wouldnt it have to pass the cost
of obsolence on to the consumer
When it is possible to install a
modern power plant capable of meeting
our needs for many years to
j come generate electricity at a cost
much lower than what we would
have to pay the public service company
use the profits for other cx
penscs of running the city as well
j a spurchasing other needed improve
i ments and pay for it all from revenue
from the plant I fail to sec
how we could go wrong
I Cutting our cost of production and
j at the same time supplying a greater
quantity of electricity can only
mean increased profit for the City
I of Tulla
There is also the question of service
Seldom if ever is our city
produced electricity off for any
length of time If lightning strikes
or an accident occurs city electricians
are on the job within minutes
to restore service Contrast this
with the public service During an
ice storm several years ago 1 know
a family served not by REA but by
the public service who was without
electricity for three days We all
know that it often happens in towns
and rural areas served by the public
service that current goes off at

There is no question but what wo
get better service in this respect
from the City of Tulia
On the basis of the facts I feel
that we will be makin a costly mistake
if we fail to vote for the proposed
power bond issue

Farm Bureau
REA Stand
Clarified
Farm Bureaus stand on REA
which has been the subject of controversy
locally was explained this
week in a letter received at the local
Farm Bureau office from A R
Crauer executive secretary nf the
Texas Farm Bureau
The confusion resulted front a misunderstanding
of the purpose of information
sheets distributed by the
American Farm Bureau Federation
for use in policy development Crau
er said The sheets contain background
information on various issues
Tlie TFB executive director said
that it is still very much the policy
of the Farm Bureau to support
rural electric and telephone programs
He cited AFBF policy for
193G on the matter which states
We reaffirm our position to support
programs to provide both electricity
and telephones to rural people
We recommend appropriations
for these programs until adequate
service is provided to all areas that
qualify
Crauer said that this philosophy
in substance has been the theme of
the Texas Farm Bureaus recommendations
to the AFBF for a number
of years
The AFBF sends out discussion
sheets on variety of issues The one
which apparently has caused n misinterpretation
of Farm Bureau policy
pertains to the governments
role in the power business It lists
recommendations of the Hoover
Commission and gives the Commissions
reason for its recommendations
Tlie sheet has columns In
which the discussion leader is to
mark whether the group agrees or
disagrees with the Hoover Commissions
recommendations Crauer said
hat the discussion sheets are intended
only as starter material for
geting groups to discuss current issues
and are not opinion surveys
as some persons have stated In
1 Farm Bureau we do not depend upon
polls to determine what our policies
shall be Crauer said In
stead our policies are formulated
only after group discussion and de
bale in community county state
and national meetings

THE CASE OF APOLLOS
And a curtain Jew named Apollos born at Alexandria i
eloquent man and might in tin scriptures came to Ephesus hi
man was instructed in the way of the Lord and being ferven p h
spirit he spake and taught diligently the things of the Led
knowing only the baptism of John And he began to speak boldy
in the synagogue whom when Aquila and Priscilla had head
they took him unto them and expounded unto him the way ot Cod
more perfectly Acts 182426 Let us study the condition o
Apollos
Apollos was an eloquent man Ho was born at Alexandria
this city had become the chief seat of Hebrew learning He was ar
eloquent man that is a man of learning tns > s not said
of any other man in the Bible
Apollos was mighty in the scriptures He knev ell the Old
Testament which was no ordinary accomplishment This was before
the day of printing hence this knowledge was acquired
from manuscripts Such an accomplishment in this da is unusai
since man has so many things he can do with his > me
Apollos had been Instructed in the way of the Lord He had e
ceived only the instruction as prepared by John the Baptist Matt
33 A < ark 13 He knew some of the facts of the life doctrines
and miracles of Christ but he may not have heard ot the death
burial and resurrection and ascension of Christ It rust be tru3
that he did not know about the descent of the Hoi Spiit on Pene
cost
Apollos taught diligently the things of the Lord He was fervent
in spirit zealous courageous and unafraid to speak the me
sage that he had learned but the sad part of the story is that
he had not learned enough he knew only the baptism of John
Acquilla and Priscilla taught him the way of God more perfectly
They told him the difference between John s baptism and
Christ s baptism in the name of the Father Son nd Holy Spirit
but John s baptism was not for that purpose Christ s baptism has
promise Ye shall recee the gift of the Holy Spirit Acts 2 38
Those who obey the baptism of Christ confess Christ Acts 8 37
Christ s baptism places one in Christ Gal 327 and the Lord
adds the saved to his church Acts 247 We read in Acs 19 15
where twelve of John s disciples were rebaptued Today we
must not be so different and unlearned as to think that ono
baptism is as good as another Paul said that there is ono
baptism Eph 45
