THE CHOWAN HERALD- I SbX'flOX > Kdenton, North Carolina, Thursday, February 22, 1968 SECTION B The week of February 12 through 17 the Congress was in recess. This was due to Lincoln’s Birthday at which time the members of the Republican Party usually make Lincoln’s 'Day speeches in the inter -4 est of the upcoming elec tions. I used the week to visit various parts of the First l* District in an effort to as certain the feelings and the thinking of the people there. Throughout the district there are a few matters which seem to be of the most concern. With no at tempt to list in order of importance, I feel that the majority of our people are concerned first, with the Vietnam situation. Furth er, it is my belief that most are convinced we ¥ should make an all-out ef fort to win the war, or This call is an order More and more salesmen find that they can get results by long distance telephone. It’s the fast, personal way to get around a territory. And at lower cost, too. \ A Ar The Norfolk & Carolina f Telephone & Telegraph Co. PRESENTING . ...

Equally disturbing to the people is the breakdown of Mass Schedule At St. Ann’s Father Joseph J. Lash, pastor of St. Ann’s Cath olic Church, announces the following schedule of masses: Sunday, 8 A. M.; week days, 7:30 P. M. (None Saturday). Benediction will be cele brated Sunday evening at 7:30 o’clock, at which time the parish mission will of ficially begin. Father Thomas Norton will cele brate mass every evening and will announce the schedule of confessions as he conducts the mission. Ash Wednesday is a day lof complete fast and ab stinence. On this day Father Norton will also distribute ashes to anyone Iw h o wishes to receive them. I At All Souls’ in Colum bia: Sunday, 10 A.

Thirdly, there is tremen dous concern over the sag ging economy which is con tributing to an exodus of many of our marginal or small farmers from the farms to the cities. Fri day, February 9, at a meeting attended by sev eral hundred farmers in Rich Square, I was most informed of this situation. Appropriately enough, it was conducted on a very high level with the speak ers being chosen to rep resent the problems of the different segments of our agricultural economy. I was impressed with those who spoke and they not only presented the prob lems that exist as to price, production, etc., but also suggested answers and so lutions. It would be well if farm- LETTERS the EDITORS Feb. 16, 1968. 304 Lombardy, Forrest City, Ark. 72335. .Dear Editor: I am working on the family history of a PUGH family which was, and still might be, quite prominent in your vicinity. And am writing asking if you would kindly print this letter. JOSEPH PUGH was born in Bertie County and rec ords of the Pugh family near the time of his birth, approximately 1789, were recorded at Edenton. I am particularly in need of information from family Bibles containing his name. And would also be so grateful for any further in formation. Won’t somebody please write? Sincerely, BARBARA BARTLE. ■ ers and other groups in our state and other parts of the south would get to gether with the same ex pressive purpose, for cer tainly, this is democracy at its best. This meeting rep resented no organization or special interest group, but was in the broadest sense a true “grass-roots” farmer meeting in eastern North Carolina. I foflnd another matter of concern to the people to be the increasing invasion of the federal government into many areas of our educational, social and eco nomic life, which segments heretofore have been re served for local or state supervision. In this con nection, I sense an over whelming opposition to the President’s proposed tax in crease legislation at this time. Many feel that such an increase is being solicit ed because of the unprece dented number of new gov ernmental programs to be funded which are virtually controlling every facet of our everyday living. I have stated previously, I cannot in good conscience vote for a tax increase un til some of these unneces sary, extensive governmen tal spending programs are limited, and in some cases, abolished.
