Two Legislators
Debate Plan At
Meeting Of Club
Members of the Moore County
Wildlife Club and guests heard a
debate on the “Little Federal”
proposed constitutional amende
irent at the club’s January din
ner meeting in the Carthage Ho
tel at Carthage Tuesday night.
With Sen. W. P. Saunders of
Southern Pines and Speaker of
the House H. Clifton Blue of
Aberdeen on hand to take part in
the program. Rep. Roger C. Kiser
of Scotland County spoke for ap
proval of the amendment on
which the State will vote Tues
day. Urging a vote against the
amendment was Rep. David M.
Britt of Robeson County. Rep.
Blue introduced the speakers.
Rep. Kiser stressed a compari
son of the proposed North Caro
lina plan with operation of the
Federal government, asserting he
thought that one house of the
General Assembly based strictly
on geography and the other on
population would work as well
for North Carolina as it does in
the Congress of the United States.
Rep. Britt, speaking against the
amendment, saw as a major dan
ger a threat of Federal court ac
tion against the plan, if approved.
He stated his conviction that the
present system is working well
and questioned any need to
change it.
Both Sen. Saunders and Rep.
Blue joined in answering ques
tions asked after the deba,te.
In other business at the club
meeting, Albert Tufts of .Pine
hurst, chairman of. the building
committee, gave a progress report
on the clubhouse project and Mrs.
Tufts made a report on the club’s
bazaar. Ralph Mills, club presi
dent, presided and conducted the
question and answer discussion.
“A tough, brawling, romantic
story with comedy overtones” is
slated to open Sunday at the Sun

Batjac Production’s Technicolor-

It’s the story of hard-drinking,
hard-fighting George Washington
McLintock, land and cattle baron

erner John Wayne, who meets his
match when it comes to tough
mindedness in—his own wife!
His wife is played by Maureen
O’Hara, who with Wayne, hap
pen to be the same romantic pair
that won an Academy Award for
the classic “The Quiet Man.”
Filmed almost in its entirety in
the Nogales, Arizona cow coun
try, where a typical turn-of-the-
osntury cow town was recreated

cast also includes Patrick Wayne,
the star’s son; Stefanie Powers,
Jack Kruschen, Chill Wills and

And as though two Waynes
aren’t enough for this action-

in the person of Michael Wayne,
another son, who produced the

Ice Plant Still
Smokes This Week
The gutted hulk of the big for
mer ice plant building, near the
Seaboard Railroad track just
south of Aberdeen, continued to
smpke this week, following a fire
that burned out its interior early
last ‘ Thursday evening.
Aberdeen Fire Chief M. J.
Muse attributed the fire to sparks
from cutting torches of a wreck
ing crew which had been work
ing inside the building.
'I'he roof of the structure caved
in, but the two-feet-thick walls,
with an insulating cork interior,
remained standing. ’The building
is owned by the City Products
Co. of Chicago and was used, un
til a few years ago, to provide
ice for fruit and vegetable cars.
Further details of the fire are
in a story on page 11.

with Mr. Gentry when he pre
sented his request to the commis
sioners, many of whom were uot
able to find seats or even to enter
the small meeting room of the
board. Mr. Gentry told the com
missioners the bank has nearly
300 stockholders in Moore Coun
ty.
Both Mr. Gentry and Mr.
Woodward reviewed the exten
sive services offered by their
banks, their involvement in busi
ness and industrial activity over
the county, the community serv
ice rendered by the banks and
their staff and other aspects of
their activity, to demonstrate
that the banks deserve considera
tion in their requests.
There was little discussion of
the requests by the commission
ers, in open meeting, after the
bank officials had left. One com
missioner voiced the opinion that
it might not be wise to change
banking practices in the middle
of the county’s fiscal year which
will end next June 30. Board
members expressed curiosity as
to why the request to switch the
board of education funds from
one bank to another had been
made and said, when questioned
by a reporter, that they would
like to talk to members of the
board of education before making
any decision.
PROPERTY RIGHTS
(Continued from Page 1)
her by her husband, in a power
of attorney, in the same manner
and extent as anyone else. We are
told there is now “legal confu
sion” about such a procedure.
3. A third would allow the
General Assembly to decide
whether neither a husband and
wife—or both the husband and
(wife—could dissent from each
other’s will.
As the law stands now, a wife
can disinherit her husband, but
a husband cannot disinherit his
wife.
The State Supreme Court has
interpreted the law to mean that
a wife can “dissent from” (that is
challenge) her husband’s will, but
a husband can’t dissent from his
wife’s will.
If approved by the voters, the
proposed amendment would per
mit the General Assembly to de
cide whether both could or
couldn’t so dissent.
The aim is to make the right
equal for both husband and wife,
whether both could or could not
dissent.
