“WHEREAS, There are
already six power plants within a
35 mile radius and all on the
shores or islands of the
Susquehanna River, making this
an extremely vulnerable spot in
case of any conflict. And
WHERWAS, Atomic power
plants properly built and
maintained to government
requirements are reasonably
safe but errors in construction,
maintenance or operation can be
extremely hazardous to anyone
in the neighborhood. While there
are several atomic plants in
operation, they have not been in
existence long enough to tell what
effect they will have on residents
of adjacent communities over a
long period of time. And
WHEREAS, With the con
struction of the Muddy Run
power plant a thousand acres,
more or less, were taken from the
Solanco area tax acreage,
thereby increasing the tax
burden on the Solanco taxpayers.
And
WHEREAS, During the con
struction of power plants, due to
the influx of migrant labor, the
school system in the locality is
overburdened with pupils
creating additional expense to
the taxpayers. And
WHEREAS, The construction
of another atomic plant in our

How
would you
pay a $20,000
hospital bill?
Costs of medical care are
skyrocketing. Hospital costs of $6O
to $75 a day for board and room
are not uncommon. Surgeons'
bills can run into the thousands,
with physicians' fees not far
behind. Today, there is no such
thing as inexpensive medical care.
How do you-as a farmer with all
the special risks you face-protect
yourself and your family against
what could be catastrophic costs
of an accident or serious illness?
Agway General has a plan
designed for farmers by farmers,
It's called the Agway Members
Health/Life/Accident Plan.
It pays as much as $20,000
for each accident or each
sickness. It covers the costs of
being sick at home: doctors'
visits to your home, nursing care
in your home, out-of-hospital
drugs and surgery. And you can
rest assured that Agway will never
cancel your policy, no matter
how many claims you make!
Take your first step towards
protection against the intolerable
costs of being sick or hurt. Call
