Southwest Sets Pace for 20 Year Power Demand Rise
W. W. Lynch of Texas Power & Light says private Southwest electric utilities will not see load growth exceed other regions over the next two decades. Edison Electric Institute cites generating capacity rising to 922 million kilowatts by 1980 from 163 in 1959, with Southwest at 18.7 percent of U S total.

Bond Election Set for Carrollton Citywide Projects
Carrollton voters will decide on an $875,000 general obligation bond package at Community Hall on June 11. Propositions include $450,000 for waterworks upgrades, $300,000 for sewer system improvements, $100,000 for a civic community center, and $25,000 for City Hall and Fire Station upgrades. The council, led by Mayor Robert McInnish, outlines a plan to fund the growth with tax base increases and equitable assessments, noting a typical $10,000 home would rise from $42 to $70 annually under the program. The measure follows extensive study and endorsements from local groups.
