He said that several prospects were prom ising, but they could not be developed to the point where they would need water and sew er during the present fiscal year. 'T wish this were not true," he said, "but I don't think it possible that the funds will be needed this fiscal year." Hugh B. Stokes appeared be fore the board with Jim Elam, local FHA Director, to present to the commissioners a bro chure of a Comprehensive Water and Sewer Plan for Warren County, prepared by Wm. L Freeman Associates and Russell Axon. The bro chure, prepared under a fed eral grant, provided a long range program and provides many vital statistics.

Bttr * ? (Continued from page I) drunk. ABC stores would simply not sell this low type wine, he Slid, ' Brltt expressed the belief that restricting the sale of wine to ABC stores would reduce the sale of wine but would In crease the sale of whiskey, as the price (inferential be tween good wine and whiskey would be narrowed. He said the whiskey drunk does not of fer the problem offered by the wlno. It was pointed out that a pint of 20 per cent wine contains practically the same amount of alcohol as does a half pint of whiskey. Either is calculated to make a man drunk. Sheriff Davis said that wine sales is his department's great est problem. Commissioner Richard Davis and Chairman Amos Capps, both employers of a large number of laborers, both said that wine was a big problem. After being drunk off wine over the weekend, they said, many of their employ ees failed to report for woTkon Monday. Davis said he once had his Insurance cancelled on his Hmher and machinery whpn In spectors found a large number of empty wine bottles on the premises. The commissioners were in agreement that refusal to allow beer sales on Sunday to country merchants while town mer chants could seJQ it was a hard ship and were in agreement that sale of cheap wine is a prob lem. But they were un certain as to what would be the people's reaction. They said that restricting sale of wine to the ABC stores would be to the county's financial advantage, but were certain that such ef forts would be fought by mer chants selling wine. They said that some of the loss of wine be creased sale of be?r. Officers MN in' agree me nt that beer offers no ?erloua profiiend toltw enforcement, tiff Pt: -ik$r. ? f. After a brief discussion the commissioners tabled the sug gestions until the November meeting for further considera Peder (Continued from page 1) and also because of the lack of an agreement between the boards prior to the enroll ment of students. 4. Contrary to some reports, I have not at any time dis cussed the "Vance County sit uation" with Dr. Craig Phillips, the NAACP or HEW officials. I took the position from the out set that this was a matter be tween the Individual parents and the Vance County School auth orities and although I received several calls from school pa trons asking that I take steps to have the children returned to the county, I refused to in terfere. 5. I did state to several in dividuals that In my opinion HEW would force Vance county to withdraw the students. I still think that if Vance Couhty had not voluntarily taken the action, they would have been forced to do so later by HEW. 6. I wish to emphasize a fact in somewhat conflict with :t statement contained in Mr. John X Honeycutt's letter to par ents of Warren County students attending Vance County?echools. Mr. Honeycutt gives astine rea son for the withdrawal at stu dents as "The BoardofEduca tion was not successful in get ting teachers released from the cation to release teachers. They knew that it was not legally feasible to do so. These are the facts as Iknow them. 1 am sending copies of this letter to superintendent, Vance County schools; chair man , Vance County Board of Education; all members of the ? Warren County Board of Edu cation and to Dr. Craig Phillips. Any of these individuals are A young cmpte, frienda of mine, haw Just built a beauti ful and expensive home. Titty bought a large lot and planned the house to fit the slU. The one thing they did not do was elevate the bouse enough on the lot. Now they have a problem of appearance as well as drainage on the south and west sides. I did not see the house until the roof was up. If the proper steps are taken, it will require rather heavy grading on two sides and per haps a retaining wall, ta addition, some valuable trees will be lost on the west side which are needed for shade. I talked with the builder and he told me that the batter boards were raised before the foun dation was started to show the people what a difference a foot or two In elevation would make. However, they decided against It. If you are planning to build a house, be sure to consider all factors such as drainage, ex posure, shade (If you already have trees) utilities, walks and drives. Slopes are very de ceiving to the eye so don't depend on this method. Have somo?competent?parson run levels with an Instrument so you will have a planned pic ture of the site, and the house, before a spade of dirt Is turned. It will pay big divi dends.

If the roots are left In the ground, the stalks should be cut off at ground level and Invited to challenge any state ment believed by them to be incorrect. with about six Inch es of pin* needles or some similar material. Probably the safest plan is to die the root clumps and store Umbi in a root o?IUr, or basement, where the tem perature does no go below freezing or much above 50 de grees. When preparing the stor age, cut the stalks bade and carefully loosen the soil around the clumps. Then sink your fork deep enough under the clumps so they can be lifted without damage. Shake the soil from the roots and protect the necks. In the storage compartment the roots may be placed In suitable containers which have been lines with paper. Peat moss, vermlcullte or sawdust may oe used to cover the clumps. Peat is probably the best material as it gives good protection and can be pur chased in small or large quan tities from your local seeds man or nurseryman. Regard less of what material you choose, place a layer on the bottom of the container.
