City Council backs APCO power lines for Danville growth
The Danville City Council approved a Finance Committee plan to join Appalachian Power Company in seeking State Corporation Commission approval for APCO to build lines and serve new facilities to be erected by U.S Gypsum Co. The move honors a 1959 agreement to supplement city power and allow APCO to serve new industry inside or outside city limits. Questions remain on whether the city electric department will continue serving non industrial customers in areas defined by the SCC as the city expands.

He likens Castro's rule to a political rather than social revolution, cites labor-law erosion under Batista versus Castro, and describes terror committees enforcing compliance with little hope of protest or trial.
