Letters to
the Editor
Mr. Stringfellow;
In your Delta Diary you have
made some very good sugges-
tions as to way to improve the
streets, places of business and
general appearance of the City
of Cooper. But! Why haven't you
got around to the wrecking yards
located within the city limits of
our town?
The dump ground has been
regulated by the city, to make it
more sanitary - in the country.
What an ideal breeding place
a wrecking yard is for mosquito-
es (and other varmints.) Nice
tall weeds, old car tops, fenders,
and other containers of stagnant
water to stay the year round -
when it rains in July (and don’t
say it doesn’t.)
Some very nice people operate
wrecking yards. It is an honor-
able way to make a living when
carried on decently and in or-
der. But, why doesn’t the city
have some rules and regulations
about them as far as sanitation
and general appearance are con-
cerned.

YOU ENJOY LIFE MORE THAN EVER BEFORE . . . ELECTRICALLY
Io days gone by, the afternoon baseball game was
one of the few forms of recreation. But, today, thanks
to electricity, there is a multitude of recreational
activities for all to enjoy.
Not only has electricity enabled baseball and other
games to be played at night, but it brings the games
right into the home through radio and television.
This is just one of the many ways in which we live
better electrically.
Texas Power & Light Company, a business-managed,
tax-paying public utility (more than 25% of ell TPJcL
revenue goes for taxes) pledges continued dependable
electric service to its customers at the lowest possible
cost. In fact, since 1936, while the cost of living has
risen 108%, the average unit cost for TP&L residential
electricity has gone down 43%.
TPM ’f expansion through the years has been carried
on entirely with private capital, providing an example
of why it is completely unnecessary to spend your tax
money for electric power development by government*
sponsored agencies which are financed or subsidized
with your tax dollars.
