I. Pierce, In order to provide more capacity, the company last, week started construction of a new 33, 000-yoIt transmission line which will extend from a point just east of LeMars to its Orange City substation. Thisj project will represent a $70,000 investment, and is designed to! bolster the power supply north of LeMars.

Next month the company! plans to build a transmission line from its Big Sioux power station in Sioux; 'City to a point 26 miles north, where it will feed into the company's present highline which' supplies LeMars. Estimated! cost of the 26-mile line is $190,000. These new lines will feed power into other lines and REA substations as far north as Sheldon, making a total of three power lines available toj carry Sioux City power to north west Iowa. It is expected that; they will carry Missouri River! power when it becomes available.

This does not include the much heavier investment required for additional generating capacity, he, pointed out. Fighting The Hoarder A shor tim ago, in the little town of Oswego, Oregon, the inemlbers of a church passed resolution -which said, in 'iresolved: That protesti in every possible manner all profiteering, scare-buying and! hoarding. "That we renounce all individual gains which must be had at the expense of general secur ity. "That we pledge ourselves.

neither by word or deed to cori tribute to fear or hatred, being aware that the present em ergency challenges our moraif as well as physical courage. "That we urge all like-minded citizens to join us in this resolution." It would be a great thing this country if, at this critical! moment in history, resolutions! of that character were to have national circulation and adherence. There can be no excuse for the hoarder, and he deser-, ves only contempt. He undermines his country. He brings on scarcity for every-honesfc and patriotic person.
