Commissioners Concerned About School Busses Send Report of Grand Jury to Sergeant George Dail After reading the report of the! Grand Jury for the December Term of Superior Court, the County Com missioners on Monday took special notice of the following: “The Edenton white busses were very dirty, the students playing in them during school hours and lunch! periods. There are several (racked glasses in each bus. By interrogation we find most of this damage is done on the school grounds. Shortage of busses due to the war makes it very necessary that these basses be taken better care of. Chowan High (white) and Edenton colored busses are O. K.” In the discussion following, several of the Commissioners asked whose duty it is to see that these busses are kept in a proper condition from one term of court to another, and subse quently ordered M. L. Bunch, clerk to the Board, to send a copy of the Grand Jury’s report to Sergeant George Dail of the Highway Patrol. A copy of the report was also sent | to John A. Holmes, superintendent of the Edenton Administrative Unit, and W. J. Taylor, county superintendent, last week. Upon receipt of the report, Mr. Holmes informed the drivers of the busses coming to the High School that more care muFt be taken in keeping, them sanitary, which fact evidently didn’t set so well with the drivers because the trouble was caused while the busses were parked or the school grounds. The drivers later went to County Superintendent Taylor’s office for their pay, but Mr. Taylor, sensing trouble, said he would not issue any checks until the matter was straight ened out, leaving shortly thereafter. The drivers then returned to the school and informed Mr. Holmes that they had not received their pay and therefore refused to drive the busses home. “All right,” said Mr. Holmes, “let them stand. I can drive a bus home, so can Mr. Love and Mr. Swain, and I’ll call the State Highway pa trolmen to drive the others home.” Sergeant George Dail was subse- 1 quently called and two of the drivers were replaced.

Chowan Farmers Seek Protection Oil Peanut Price ■ Feel That Government Should Subsidize Prices » Peanut growers of Chowan County feel very definitely that the United • States government should go with old peanut growers on a program that will protect their allotments, market quotas and also give a fair price for oil peanuts. A committee consisting of R. H. Hollowell, T. L. Ward, J. E. Baker and T. >A. Berryman, with the county agent, C. W. Overman, at tended the peanut meeting held in Tarboro last week. Chowan County peanut growers feel that allotments and marketing quotas for old peanut growers should be protected, leaving the price of edible peanuts to be supported by the present legislation. They also feel that the government certainly should be willing to subsidize the price of peanuts for oil at a price which the growers can afford to produce them and realize a small profit.
