Indiana A Michigan Electric company is included among eleven major electric utilities providing service in seven states from Michigan to Virginia that today announced formation of a group—the Central Area Power Coo'dii)ation Group (CAPCO) —for the purpose of achieving n<Vtlti>nal benefits in electric service to customers through greater coordination of the member companies cperations. " The eleven companies! today have available a combined power generating capability of 1.9 million kilowatts—about 8% of the nation’s total—to meet the electric requirements of industry and an estimated 15 million people. The states in which they servo arc: Michigan, Indiana. Ohio, Pennsylvania. West Virginia, Maryland and Virginia. R. E. Dovle, Jr..

Italian Reds Seek Government Change
By PHIL NEWSOM HPT Foreign New* Analyst One man’s personal Tragedy may be the instrument by which Italy’s resurgent Communis's make another attempt to bring down the government. The personal tragedy is President Antonio Segni's. He suffered a paralyzing stroke last August shortly after, another government crisis and has only partially recovered. On Dec. 7. doctors will decide whether he can continue his du ies. If not, Italian law requires that a joint session of parliament convene within 15 days to elect a successor. The issue, the Communists hope, could btak up the cen-ter-left coalition which has ruled Italy for most of a year. The fact that the coalition of Premier Aldo Moro’s Christian Democrats and Vice Premier Peitro Nenni'r, loft wing Socialists exists at all is one of the contradictions of I‘alian politics. Another is the show >of strength put on by the Italian Communists at a time when it had been believed that a series of even's had hurt the party. Reda Gain Strength One of these was the death last”' August of Palmiro TogliaJti, the party secretary. Another was the ouster of Nikita Khrushchev, an event which the Christian Democrats attempted to exploit as an example of communism's politic’s! jungle. But, far from hurting, the Communists came out ojf November’s municipal elections
transmission lines and have, for many years, realized many of the benefits of interconnected system < peration. However, through CAPCO, improved coordination of these operations and coordination of the planning of the expansion of the respective utilities' facilities will result in additional efficientles and economies. These results in turn, according to Doyle, will provide further assurance to the companies' customers of a continuing economic and abundant power supply. To Make Studies A CAPCO planning committee will make studies and investigations lending to recnmpicndations concerning larger-capacity- and more effyetivT. fntrr-ttrs, the staggering of construction, and joint development of perierrtiny units ao that savings through the use of larger units can be achi»ved. It will also keep abreast of all advances and technical devolore ments and recommend the adontlon of new methods and. techniques. A CAPCO operating committee will coordinate the operation of
with added strength It led the party newspaper L'Unita to trumpet that the results he' aided the downfall of Moro's center-left government Thci coalition itself is one that defies political laws of gravity. It pits Nenni, an old Socialist, against labor in support of an unpopular austerity program which hns boosted, 'axes and has installed credit curbs. Delayed have been such favorite Nenni projects as decentralization of government into regional governments and agricultural-, reform including a change in the sharecropping sys'tem. These a~e considered factors in the Communists’ new show of s rength. M-m her ship Has Declined One interpretation is that the voters were voting not so much for communism as against the government. This is supported by the fact tha' while the Communist vote has increased, actual membership in the party has declined. Another factor Is that when Nenni decided to abandon years of opposition and join the 'governmen', he did so at the cost of the loss of his party's 'extreme left wing. That loss was reflected , in the voting. The Communists have flatly refused to gp along with government announcement of its austeri'y program with a wave of strikes among agricultural workers, dockworkers, railroad workers and civil servants. On the government‘s part it was an attempt to halt an inflationary spiral which saw the
the generating and transmission facilities of the respective companies so that the advantages of such operation may be realized to the fullest practicable extent. Matters to be Considered by this committee will be the coordination of maintenance of the group's generating and transmission facilities. the energy flow, voltage, control of frequency, and other similar matters.
Observes Sixtieth Music Anniversary Hmm, LEWIS H. WORTHMAN, seated, recently celebrated his sixtieth anniversary in music. Pictured with him are the Quartet he directs and accompanies. Standing, left to right, Loren Kruetzman, Harold Scherry, Milton Hoffman, and Kent Girod.
Lewis H. Worthman celebrated his sixtieth anniversity in music nt his home church, the Magley Reformed, recently. October 12, 1904. he and three other young men got together to sing. At that time the preaching, Sunday school teaching, and singing was in German, so the first number they sang was German. This quartet, composed of Worthman, John Hilgeman, George Reppert, and Ed Kolter sang together for about eight years until Mr. ‘ Reppert moved'to Freeport, 111., and Mr. Kolter moved to Bluffton. The remaining two member# chose two young men from the congregation, William Kruetzman and Earnest "Worthman, to sing with them. This quartet sang for 37 years. Mr. Worthman is the only member still living from the original quartet and since therf has started directing a new group composed of Kent Girod, Loren Kruetzman, Milton Hoffman and Harold Scherry. In celebrating the anniversary, Mr. Worthman sang a German song, "Lobt Froh cost of living rise»9 per cent in 1963 and a balance of deficit of more than SI billion. Labor’s denrands, it is estimated, would have cost the country about $720 million.
THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA
All •of the eleven utilities participating in the new organization have had a long history of mutual cooperation and assistance. In addition to interconnections, each of the companies has been involved, for example, in one or more multi-member projects ’in such fields as nuclear power research, bulk energy supply programs, and generation-transmis-sion research and development.
Den Herrn." and “I Sing for I Can’t Keep Silent " He loves music and plays the organ and piano. He has several songs of his own printed which he may put on the market soon. Worthman stated to the younger generation, “If you have a talent use it,, don’t neglect it, make use of it. put action in it with heart and soul; use it or you might lose it.” ' Post Office Work To Start In Spring Wo r k on remodeling, enlarging. and air conditioning the Deca ur post office is expected to start next spring, John Boch, postmaster, announced today. The final approval on plans was obtained by the architects. Schenkel & Lawrence, during the month of November. Bids will probably be advertised and opened in January,, with letting in February. • 1 will take approximately 10 months for the work to be completed. and the post office will operate from the same building while remodeling and new construction is underway. The architects had asked that the operation be transferred to a sepoarate building during construction, but GSA, the contracting agency, rejected the plan.
