living F. Hall Much In
Favor Os Developing
North Carolina Ports
Raleigh Man Sees Pro
ject Advantageous to
Entire State
Joining the many forward-looking
and public-spirited business and pro
fessional men, civic organizations,
labor leaders, industrialists, bankers
and others who have endorsed the
proposals for expansion and modern
ization of North Carolina’s port re
sources, Irving F. Hall of Raleigh,
president of the State Capital Life
Insurance Company, who also is presi
dent of the Raleigh Chamber of
Commerce, says that “I heartily ap
prove of the ports development pro
gram, and hope it will be given the
go-ahead signal, eo that we can con
tinue to advance and prosper.”
Writing to Col. George W. Gillette,
executive director of the North Caro
lina State Ports Authority, Hall said,
“I believe that intelligent and ade
quate development of our port re
sources . . . should be looked upon as
an almost certain revenue producing
measure, advantageous to the entire
State.
“Officials of the State Ports Au
thority have said repeatedly that
North Carolina is losing each year
tremendous sums of money, which
should and can be kept at home
through proper development of our
port resources. This revenue could
go far toward brightening the eco
nomic picture for our State. It now
is being received by Charleston and
Savannah, Mobile and Norfolk and
other port cities in states which long
ago saw the advantages of develop
ing their ports, and, as a conse
quence, virtually are taking money
out of our pockets in a perfectly le
gitimate manner.
“As proposed, the ports program is
to be state-wide in scope. The bene
fits to be derived will not be confined
to any one class, or to any one sec
tion of North Carolina, but will re
act to the advantage of practically
every citizen of every county, from
Currituck to Cherokee.
“Authorities estimate that net
revenues, just from fees received for ;
handling ships and cargoes, should
amount to at least $1,000,000 a year, ,
all of which will go into the treasury 1
of the State of North Carolina. This
is only one of the many advantages
proper ports expansion will bring.
Additional benefits will be transmit
ted throughout the State in the form •
of reduced transportation and freight
charges, potential reductions of tax ’
loads, more business and industrial
establishments, more and larger pay
rolls and all the other helpful eco
, nomic aspects which should naturally
follow.
“As a North Carolinian intensely
interested in the progress of the
State, I heartily approve of the ports
development program, and hope it
will be given the go-ahead signal, so
that we can continue to advance and 1
prosper.” '

Behind the exodus of thousands of
hunters to the fields and woods each
fall there is a tradition established by
such men as Daniel Boone, Davy
Crockett and Kit Carson. They set a
mighty example for American sports
men that is alive today. But old
Dan’l was the master of them all.
Where Boone walked and hunted,
later followed a nation. A hunter’s
instinct sent him over the mountains
where he hacked out the Wilderness
Road so that others might come and
hunt, too.
It comes almost as a surprise to
realize that Boone was not a legend
but a living man. Generations of
American sportsmen have retold
around the campfire the exploits of
Boone of Kentucky exactly as Eng
lishmen used to tell of the deeds of
' Robin Hood.
I And first and last he was a hunter
strong for game preservation. To

THE
his dying day Boone hated a hunter
who killed more than he took away.
The habits of the Great Hunter
changed little as he grew older, ac
cording to Moran Tudury, noted his
torical writer. Beaver trapping was
always a special pleasure. Deer hunt
ing, when he waited by the salt lick
at moonrise, was something he never
tired of.
His rifle, the historic revolutionary
“Long Rifle,” which was fired by a
flintlock, is said to have weighed all
of 11 pounds, and the barrel alone

I Th« last days of Daniel Boone
make a picture to warm the heart of
every sportsman. An early riser, he
would sniff the air and take down the
rifle. Then, in the company of his
aged brown hound, he was off for
the woods. Even a short time before
his death, at 86, there was little his
family cofild do about keeping him
home.
What was his recipe for a happy
life? “All you r.ted,” he declared,
“is a good gun, a good horse and a
good wife.”
Certified Seed Output
Increases During 1948
Because certified seed producers
have done a good job in 1948, North
Carolina farmers are assured of a
good supply of planting seed for vir
tually all crops during the coming
year, says Dr. R. P. Moore of State
College.
Dr. Moore is director in charge of
the North Carolina Crop Improve
ment Association, which handles the
seed certification program in the
State.
Producers of certified cotton and
hybrid corn seed more than doubled
their output in 1948 as compared with
1947, says Dr. Moore. A total of
