/Adfe 2 ~ __ The State Port Pilot ?f Southport, N. C. f Published Every Wednesday 1 JAMES M. HARPER, JR. Editor i (On Leave of Absence. In U. S. N. R.) j Entered as second-class matter April 20. 1928, at I the Post Office at Southport, N. C., under the Act of March 3, 1879. i SUBSCRIPTION RATES ONE YEAR $1.50 , SIX MONTHS 1.00 1 THREE MONTHS 75 ' i 1 Wednesday, September 19, 1945 ( j Hotel Greatest Need j f: j 1 For years this paper has been point- i i ing out the great need of a modern ] hotel at Southport. There has never j been the least doubt in our mind that j \ such would pay. Now, with the war 5 over the need is becoming more forci- j s bly manifested. t In pre-war days Southport and f I Brunswick county received a great deal i of very beneficial publicity, because of the extra good sport fishing that j ] g exists on Frying Pan Shoals. This year t I the agency that put out that news and c ? which also handled the hundreds of f (inquiries, has been forced to stop send- a ing anything in the way of sport fish- ! j inor stnries to the newspapers. \ The reason for this is not that the ( fishing is any different from what it t tvas before the war. If anything it is j ii better. The trouble is that we have no a hotel facilities and very little in the j t way of boats facilities for sportsmen. 1 I When the agency receives letters ask- c ing for hotel and boat reservations, a neither of which are to be had, it would r be foolish to invite more such inquiries. a Publicity regarding Southport fishing, ; t regardless of how good that may be, is j ( at a standstill until hotel acommodat- j s ions are available. [ r Very few people here ever realized the great need of a modern hotel and 1 the part it would play in the develop- > ment of things. Those who do realize < it lack the money to build what' is needed. It has taken a long time for folks who make a business of hotels to get ] t around to finding out the possibilities j ? at Southport. They are finding out something now, and something will be J '< started soon, we hope. To illustrate the hotel business pot- j entialities here, it can be said that ?' things are totally different from what < they are at the usual resort. At such j i places hotels are built with the idea of j operating only two or three months of 1 the year and during those two or three j 1 months they must make enough money 1 1 to show a profit for twelve. i i There is no period of the year that 1 will not bring good hotel business here, t if a good hotel is available. There is < the small but steady local and semilocal year-round trade. On top of that < there is a big potential tourist business for about twelve months of the year, hunting and fishing parties the year j J round and for five or six months of each year much can be expected from 1 yachtsmen passing in eastern states. During one pre-war fall 443 yachts 1 stopped at Southport for the night, some for several days. A standard in- t ' qufiry by the owners or those in charge i J - was regarding a hotel. ! c The sport fishing angle offers assurance of a lot of business for a hotel for ten months of the year. If and when hotel facilities become available there will be a big fleet of sport fishing j craft here and sportsmen coming in from every northern and eastern state. ? A New York sportsmen told us some ( months ago that there were thousands ' of sportsmen in New York who would like to come here to fish if only there were hotel and boats facilities. Industrial Research \ With jet propelled planes now a reality, and with the atomic bomb releasing forces beyond the conception of man, who can predict what tomor- j row's world is going to be? To show how industry must meet ' rapidly changing conditions take the j lubrication of jet propulsion engines. j The axle is only moving part, as contrasted with the conventional internal combustion aircraft engine which has 1 ^hundreds of moving parts where the ' lubricant must cool, seal, lubricate, scavenge, act as a gear lubricant, and < as a hydraulic fuel. In the jet propuls- * ion engine it cool and lubricates only, but it passes through temperatures from well below zero to 800 and 1,000 1 decrees in a matter of seconds. Lubrication and cooling are accomplished by i means of a mist-like spray consisting i - " "P inese homeland is increasing, the Allied occupation will get tougher. There s a score to settle with Japanese war criminals, and Allied authorities under Supreme Commander Douglas MacArthur will relentlessly hunt them lown and bring them to bar. Former Premier Tojo, when he shot himself ast week, may have intended to exaiate the crimes which were committed luring the train of events which he set n motion with the attack on Pearl Har)or. Such will not be the effect. In respect to the war criminals, the Allied jccupation authorities will drive for a lomplete cleanup. Details of Japanese violations of International Law are now being filled in?by the United States, by Australia, by Great Britain, by China, and other Allies. The Australian charges probably are the most horrific. Naming dates and places, they accuse Japanese troops of cannibalism, of violating and bayoneting Roman Catholic nuns, of using prisoners of war as live objects for oayonet practice. These accusations ?rew, not out of any recording of hearsay evidence, but out of a careful inquiry by the Chief Justice of Queensand, Sir William Webb. Australia has served notice that she will strongly oress the Supreme commander for ounishment of the guilty. That is clear The British have drawn up de.tailed :harges of systematic Japanese mistreatment of prisoners and internees. America has thousands of witnesses, including General Jonathan Wain ight. Many faces will be missing from Japan when the cherry trees bloom again. i j T >f 95 per cent chilled compressed air tnd 5 per cent oil. The spray is directed j >n the ball bearings at either end of he engine and axle, and is exhausted 0 the jet. Modern inventions would be useless inless industry was able to solve the echnical problems incident to their idoption and use by the general public. , 1 Petition With Merit The extension of Highway No. 211 ' rom its southern termination at Bolton ! intil it unites with the coastal highway | n Brunswick county is sought in a jetition to be presented for the con- ! ideration of the State Highway De>artment and the Public Works Comnission. The petition has been signed >.v leading civic, business and political eaders of the county. From Bolton, the proposed extension vould run through the heart of Green ivvamp for a distance of some 21 miles n Columbus county and probably an ; ;qual number in Brunswick county beore connecting with Highway Num- j >er 17, the Coastal Highway at Supply. J A glance at the map will immediatey argue in favor of this extension. At he present time, there is no highway utting across to the coastal beaches rom Highway 74-76 anywhere from Vhiteville to Wilmington. Moreover, n all that area of Columbus and Brunsvick counties containing the great Ireen Swamp and adjacent areas, j here is no highway of any kind. Here s a vast undeveloped, unpopulated rea containing probably more potenial wealth than any similar area in forth Carolina. Eleven thousand acres if this land have been set aside for igriculture purposes and is in the teritory of the Columbus County Drain T. M.

I 1 ? - - i-? - gre District JNo. 2. some o.&uu acres or his land have already been improved ! >r partially improved by the con ;truction 01 lateral ditches in the 44nile canal system. The opening of this territory by a iard surface road would open untold vealth, both actual and potential, to j Columbus county by making accessible 1 housands of acres of virgin territory tighly adaptable to livestock producion and to the growth of food and feed aipplies. Moreover, it woilld make directly iccessible, as the petition points out, o residents from all oyer Eastern j STorth Carolina the extensive beach j areas front Southport to the South I Carolina line, now awaiting developnent. No more logical extension of a highway could be asked for than this soughfor extension of Highway 211. It would ilace hard surface where hard surface s needed and in an area which would lay off in magnificent dividends, both o the counties involved and the State if North Carolina.
