greatly by what Senators and
Representatives hear during these
face-to-face conferences.
Certainly one of the paramount
issues with which Congress is'
i grappling centers around the
need for government economy.
Both President Eisenhower and
1 Senator Byrd (D-Va.) are urging
the people back home to use their
influence with members of Con
gress in favor of government
economy.
Mr. Eisenhower summed up the
situation in these words: “If the
government is to follow the
course of fiscal responsibility in
the conduct of its business, the
informed citizen of our nation
must speak up to the Congress
without delay.”
To those who may not realize
the dangers of governmental fis
cal irresponsibility he offered
this advice: “We must remind
ourselves that the danger we face
is only in part a military one;
that the threat of Soviet Com
munism is likewise an economic
threat.”
Renewing his appeal for a
' “crusade” for government econo-

my, Senator Byrd asserted that
the Administration’s $77 billion
expenditure estimate for the next
fiscal year should be reduced by
$5 billion to $6 billion—or be
tween 7 and 8 per cent.
“I know,” he added, “that this
could be accomplished without
the impairment of a single essen
tial function.
“From long experience, I know
public demand could force such
reductions.
“The voice of the people of this
country, if it is loud enough, will
overcome selfish and highly or
ganized minorities and will pre
vail.”
Presidential Vetoes Possible
These appeals for public sup
port of fiscal sanity came as Con
gress was acting on legislation
which faced a possible veto by
Mr. Eisenhower on the ground
that it would upset his $77 bil
lion balanced budget.
1. The Senate passed a bill by
Senator Douglas (D-Ill.) for a
$389,500,000 program of federal
aid to areas suffering from chron
ic unemployment.
This was more than seven
times larger than the $53 mil
lion program urged by the Ad
ministration, if the bill gets
through Congress in its present
form.
The Senate vote was 49 to 46.
far less than the two-thirds re
quired to override a veto. South
ern Democrats teamed up with
conservative Republicans in op
position.
Mr. Eisenhowwer vetoed legis
lation last year which would have I
cost sllO million less than this,
year’s measure.
2. A tug-of-war is in progress
between the Senate and the
House over the amount of fed
eral aid for airport construction
but whatever amount is decided,
it faces a possible veto.
3. Housing legislation, also pro
oosing spending which would
Tierce Mr. Eisenhower's budget,
is pending before the House Rules I
Committee, awaiting clearance
for floor debate.
WANT AUDIT SOONER
Dissatisfied with tardiness of
the county audit the Chowan
County Commissioners on Mon
lay agreed that a stipulation be
made in the contract with R. E.
Aiken, certified public account
int so Elizabeth City, that the
audit be completed and deliver
ad to the county on or before
October 1, 1959. If this stipu
lation is not complied with, then
;ome other accounting firm will
be employed.

Regional Library i
Offered Big Slice '
Os Federal Money
!
t Mrs. Eugenia Babylon, direc
tor of the Pettigrew Regional
Library, appeared before the
County Commissioners Monday
when she presented a proposi
tion for securing more money
for the regional library.
Mrs. Babylon stated that un
der an arrangement with the
federal government, the library'
can secure $12,000 additional j
federal funds if the three coun
ties comprising the regional li- |
brary appropriate a portion of
the money. She informed the
Commissioners that in Chowan
County, $1,504 must be appro
priated to secure the federal
money and that Washington and
Tyrrell counties are expected to
raise their quota.
Mrs. Babylon said the region
al library is handicapped at
present due to lack of funds,
but that if the federal money :
becomes available, the library :
could be operated in first class
shape. _ j
The Commissioners were in ac
cord with the request but ex
pressed the opinion that the i:
Town of Edenton should share in ;
raising the amount Mrs. Baby
lon will, no doubt, appear at <
the meeting of Town Council '
next Tuesday night to explain :
the program. i
Chowan Fishermen
Say Injustice Done
Continued from Page 1. Section 1
in an effort to get the General
Assembly to enact legislation
which would provide such a law
and that if such is the case it
would put many fishermen out
of business. He cited figures toj
show how much money is taken
in by fishing which in turn con- >
tributes to the economic struc
ture of this area, much of which
would vanish if the restrictions J
went into effect,
Mr. Waff said the commercial \
fishermen are also vitally inter-!
ested in preservation of fish and j
are willing to refrain from fish-'
ing during a certain period of the
spawning season. He also point- j
ed out that under an agreement |
the Board of Conservation would
conduct a survey over a two
year period and if it was discov
ered that the longer time for set
ting nets was detrimental to the
supply of'fish, a change would i
be made.
The commissioners pointed out I
that when they signed the peti- j
tion they were under the opinion j
that it was the desire of the
Board of Conservaion. whose,
business it is to know what is;
the right thing to do. At any,
rate, they agreed to rescind their,
action, so that they oppose the,
restricted time for net setting.
