C LIBRARY NKWS The County Library, Its Board,! and patrons have been quite cou-j cerned - lately over increasing! their budget for the next fiscal I year, 1944-45. On the present al lotment of $600.00 from the County there isn't a chance to really give library service. The towns and the state have con tributed nobly' , in establishing library service; otherwise it would have been Impossible to operate. On June 5, the County Commis sioners will meet, with one of their objects to set-up the budget for county expenditures. It is the ernest hope that the Commission ers will deem It wise to allocate a budget adequate for the library to function actively. Miss Marjorie Beal, Director of N. C. Public Libraries, states "Franklin County has done very little toward library service." Our State Senator from this district supported the program for State Aid for public libraries in the last legislature. Now it behooves this County to show or to prove that they are cognizant of the valtte of libraries. At least now Is the time something can be done about It. Other counties of the same assessed valuation have long since passed this county. Can't Franklin really come to the front taking its right place with other counties The budget allocated it on June 5th will be an Indication of Franklin's attitude. ? Contribu ted. NOMINATED LT.-GOV.
