WHY A BUYERS' GUIDE? IT IS CUSTOMARY TO INCLUDE A BUYERS' GUIDE IN THE CITY DIRECTORY BECAUSE: It gives business firms the opportunity to elaborate upon a description of their products and services impossible in the limited space of regular Alphabetical and Classified listings.

The tremendous growth of Charlotte and the fine towns in the Charlotte area is reflected in the unprecedented increase in demand for power.


It is the business of the Duke Power Company to be ready for this increase ahead of demand. That is why we are pushing forward the biggest expansion program in our history.


Construction of new power plants and additional distribu- tion begun in 1945 already has called for an expenditure of $120,000,000.
