Southwestern Public Service wanted to make
sure there was enough electricity to keep
today s wage earner working. They decided
that the fuel used in their power plants
should be coal because, coal would be more
abundant and cheaper to use than the
conventional fuel . . . natural gas.
How. Southwestern Public Service has a new
coal plant in operation and more on the way.
Yes. coal plants will help stabilize fuel costs
while providing a long-term. reliable, energy
source to provide electricity.
It's good to be able to tell someone
what they can depend on.

The children of today are looking to us for
ways they can prepare for their own style of
life . . . families . . . and job opportunities.
To help, we ll need more electricity,
its true, electricity will play a big role toward
helping expand the job market to include
these adults of tomorrow.
The modern use of electricity has contributed
to a better educational system to prepare our
young people for the new experiences
yet to come.

Troubles With Social
Security System
Slow To Be Corrected
Inequities of all kinds are
found at all levels, but one
congressman came up with a
curious one the other day
when he addressed himself
to the well-being of the social
security system.
While taxes have increas-
ed, he noted, we haven’t
done much to correct some of
the wrongs about the way the
system operates.
He found, in his own
district, for instance, in one
small reformatory there were
33 people who are fully
housed, fed and clothed by
the government-yet, at the
same time, all were drawing
full social security, some of
the people up to $300 each.
One example of the $300
level was a 17-year-old boy,
' and he merited that larger
sum because he is an orphan.
But there’s a catch: He’s an
orphan because he is in the
reformatory for killing his
own parents. He pockets the
money while taxpayers pay
his housing, food and
clothing costs. It’s hardly
fair. THE NORMAN
