FINAL STRETCH OF INLAND WATERWAY ALMOST COMPLETE Continued from page one Belhaven, via Pungo River, Bay River, Neuse river, Adams creek, Core creek and Newport river, to Morehead City, thence along the sounds bordering the coast to Cape Fear river and to Little river, South Carolina. More detailed Information can be obtained at his office. "Project dimensions: The projpct or that portion of the waterway from Higginsport bridge to the Cape Fear bridge provides for a channel 2 feet deep at mean low water, with bottom widths varying from 90 feet in land cuts and narrow portions of creelos, 250 feet in the wider portions of rivers and sounds. From the Cape Fear river, at Southport, N. C., to Little River, S. C., the project provides for a depth < of 8 feet at mean low water, with a bottom width of 75 feet. 'Available dimensions: Project dimensions are available at all points except at the following locations where shoaling has occurred, and maintenance dredging s now in progress. "Between the head of Adams :reek and the drawbridge at Morehead City, the available depth at mean low water is 11 feet. "Between the mouth of New river and the Wrightsville Beach bridge, the available mean low water depth is 11 feet, excepting at a point about IV2 miles nortty of the Wrightsville Beach bridge where the mean low water depth is only about 8 feet. "Between the Wrightsville Beach bridge and Cape Fear river the project depth of 12 feet exists except at the sound entrance of the land cut, where the mean low water depth is about 11 feet. "It is expected the full project depth of 12 feet will be restored over all the above listed shoals by about January 31, 1936. "Tides: In the section from Higginsport bridge to Morehead City, the route lies through Pamlico sound and its estuaries where lunar tides have little effect on the elevation of the water surface. Moderate northernly and easterly winds will raise the surface as much as IV2 feet, while winds from the south and west Slave the opposite effect. Near the inlets between Beaufort and the Cape Fear river the mean rise of %4de is from 2% to 3% feet, dininishing considerably at points >etween inlets. Between South >ort and Little River the rise is rom 4 to 5 feet, diminishing to about 3 feet between inlets. Strong cross-currents occur opposite some of the inlets at half tide stages. "Supplies, Etc.: Mail, telegraph, and telephone facilities, rail and ^highway connections, gasoline, oil, water, supplies, and repair facilities are available at the following points on or near the route Belhaven, pop. 2500; Vandemere pop. 350; Oriental, pop. 600 Beaufort, pop. 3000; Moreheac City, pop. 3500; and Southport j>op. 1800.

Thus if any town or county has any project to suggest, we shall do our part. But I must emphasize that the projects must be drawn (up in proper form. With this we can be of assistance. I urge too that any such projects be 3Ubj mitted promptly because it will probably not be long before we shall not be permitted to accept any new projects." MRS.

BUSINESS CENSUS TO BE CONDUCTED (Continued from page 1) Supervisor, will help conduct the training courses. Supervisor Yates explained this Census has been extended considerably beyond the limitations of the Census of Distribution for 1929, and the Census of American Business for 1933, as a result of business requests that all fields of business be included. "It is designed," he said, "to supply a definite answer to the question of how many concerns there are in business, the total volume of annual business, and the total payrolls and employment. More than 100 representatives, delegated by various business associations in each field to be covered, met with Census officials and formulated the questions to be asked." Retail trade will be divided into two size classifications: Stores with total sales of $50,000 and over, and those with sales of less than $50,000. Commodity data will be sought from the larger group and from all wholesale establishments including exporters, and limited function wholesalers. i mx j |V? mid ?ii??iii w?i nm j j i~nV j I Youn 1 Ell I have in n I All are well b j from 850 to 120 j TERMS T HAVE GR1 I carry at all \ | Wagons that are | traces, harness and j Why pay more ? i IT WILL PA v!

DECISION OF SUPREME | COURT BUSTS THE AAA (Continued from page one) The Supreme Court splintered! the AAA?second cornerstone of j | the New Deal?so completely j Monday that previously-planned j patchwork was all but forgotten, j An uncompromising 6-3 opinion not only wiped out President I Roosevelt's cherished farm-aid! 1 program, but threw a shadow of' I doubt over other recent major | J legislation. The treasury Monday night | halted all processing tax collection under the law, and said that "for the present, no checks will ! be issued for benefit or rental I j payments, or refunds, or for adj ministrative purposes." i Treasury officials interpreted [the order, issued after a threeIhour conference with its counsel, as halting further salary checks to AAA's 6,500 full-time employes, as well as part-time workers throughout the nation. Farmers have received $1,127,1000,000 since 1933 for reducing [crop production under AAA's | plan of federal control. Shocked Silence The White House conferees said | Mr. Roosevelt hoped to find [means under the decision to pay j farmers who have fulfilled existing contracts?up to their invaliHoHnn tnHsiv Proposals for a constitutional [amendment were heard immediately?just as they were last spring when the high tribunal unanimously struck NRA's death blow.

[con Calling the decision "poor law," iarK* Bankhead said he had no doubt er but that the court also would throw out the cotton act. There! t'1 was similar fear for survival ofjor the Kerr-Smith tobacco law, the J ? potato control act, and similar j farm measures, as well as the | " more important social security, Mi Guffey coal control, and Wagner jX labor disputes laws. iX Justice Roberts held that AAA | X ?as the Agricultural Adjust- X ment Act was called?invaded the IX j "reserved rights of states" andiX I was "beyond the powers delegat-|X ed to the federal government" X | In a vehement dissent Justices' X , Stone, Brandeis and Cardozo de- X , clared that "courts are not the X | only agency of government that!
