C Dear Editor Story: 80c Par Wa SUBSCRIPTION BATHS IN MADISON - BUNCOMBE COUNTIES 16 Months 98.00 One Yaax 82.60 82.00 Six Months -1.50 YOUR RESPONSIBILITY At this time when Madison County has a new Jury Commission and a new list of jurors in the box, we would urge that every person called for jury service make whatever sacrifice that is necessary so that he or she may serve. It will be noted in the list of jurors drawn for next week's term that 30 women have been drawn whereas 26 men's names were drawn. With the ad dition of wives' names being added to the newly con structed jury box women will be more apt to be drawn from now on. The point is, however, that if and when your name is drawn for jury duty it is your responsibility to serve if at all possible. As was said manjy years ago by Thomas Paine, "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigues supporting it." It has also been said, that for the forces of evil to triumph, it is only necessary that good men do nothing. It is sometimes most inconvenient to serve on a jury. It often works hardships and actually costs more to serve, in dollars and cents, than a juror re ceives. But, if we are to maintain fairness in courts with justice assured, the heavy responsibility of serv ing as 'a juror rests with you. We would hope that every citizen and, particu larly, every person called for jury service would study carefully the following ac A Juror's My forefathers wrested from tyrants my right to serve as a juror. d sjL Under our law no one's life, liberty, or property can be tak en without doe process of law. Trial by jury is our basic right AH who seek their day in court have a right to a fair hearing. They will get it from me. I will not ask to be excused from jury service except in an emergency. On my oath I will well and truly try each case before me, land a true vdrdict render under the law given me by the judge land the evidence at the trial without fear, favor, or hope of re ward. I will listen closely, with open mind to all of the testimony, instructions, and arguments. I will not make up my mind until tall the facts are before me and the judge has instructed me on the law. I will search for the truth regardless of the wealth or pov erty, friendship or enmity, of any party or witness. To someone my decision may mean the difference between life and death, freedom or imprisonment, poverty or wealth. Justice, once but a dream is a reality when I, as juror, do my full duty. No act of mine shall bring shame to our system of liberty under law. LET'S ACT QUICKLY ON AMBULANCES Announcement by 12 Buncombe, Haywood and Madison county funeral homes that they will a&an don ambulance service June 30 poses a real problem f or municipal and county governments in the area. Nobody can expect a business firm to continue indefinitely to lose substantial sums of money in a, public service, and a spokesman for the 12 funeral homes says they went $100,000 into the red during the past year. . . . Somehow, from somewhere, a quick answer has to be found to this problem. With the constant, flood of highway wrecks and the need for quick eervice to critically-ill people, this area has to have an efficient ambulance service. C'1L A study should be made at once to set forth the finances involved. It may be found necessary to put ambulance service on a public basis. Or, pwibiy, it may be best to work out some sort of subsidy eiWier with the present funeral homes or with a central but privatelyrowned firm. . ,, In some larger cities, ambulances are operated by the hospitals. Such a move should be contemplat ed here only if it can be assured that any deficit in curred in the service is not passed on to the paying hospital patients, iwho already carry an unfair share of losses from the hospitalization of welfare patients and other medical indigents. The present critical need is for immediate trtudy and prompt actwn. ine iunerai nomes are in withdrawing from a n hut public officiate have perio eaviiy losing puuu service, t quickly, lance op- W.
