Citizens Of Cove Creek
Appreciative Of Efforts j
Of Others To Give Aid
The citizens of Cove Creek,
through Mrs. George Boring, today '
expressed sincere appreciation for
the interest and efforts of a num
ber of people who have assisted the
flood-damaged group in the north
western section of Haywood.
In a letter to The Mountaineer. I
Mrs. Boring said:
"We. the people of Cove Creek,
would like to express our appreci
ation and thanks to the many who ;
have given of their time and ef- >
forts on our behalf since the recent '
flood disaster that happened in our
beautiful valley.
"The news and picture coverage i
was complete, in every way and
the Mountaineer is to be commend
ed,
"Men like Senator William Med
ford. Jonathan Woody. Jerry Rog
ers. W Curtis R.us-s. Virgil Hollo
wax. F.irraday Green, especially
have xxorked with the men in our
community to help secure state aid
to eoriect the situation and avoid
fuure damage. These men met at
the Courthouse with twelve of the
farmers whose farms were damag
ed in an effort to find out what
they thought should be done. All
agreed to have a map of the valley
and a survey of the creek made
and then carry the story to the
Governor. This they did last Fri
day when they met Governor
Hodges in Waynesville. and he as
sured them that their troubles
were over and that state aid would
be available at once.
"Then last Friday each family
received a check in the mail front
the Flood Relief Fund to help in
their immediate difficulties?and
they are many. We think that the
business men and others who have
made this fund available have done
a wonderful thing to want to help
those less fortunate and in time of
disaster.
"Most of us have watched over
TV this past two years, floods, tor
nadoes, hurricanes, etc., and felt
glad that we lived in these old
mountains where things like that
just couldn't happen, or so we
thought, and perhaps even felt a
litle smug at times, but now we
know that the laws of nature can
strike and leave an inconceivable
state of chaos wherever it chooses.
"I haven't been able to contact!
all the people of the valley for j
September Election Likely
On Constitution Changes
The North Carolina Supreme
Court Tuesday gave its opinion
that an election can be held in
September on proposed constitu
tional amendments designed to
maintain racially segregated pub
lic schools.
Governor Luther Hodges stated
that he was "pleased on the full
agreement of our High Court."
The election, he said, would serve
"two immediate purposes:
"1. The question then may be
kept out of partisan politics.
"2. The election can be held so j
near the opening of schools."
The amendments will be pre
sented to the Assembly at a spec
ial session convening at noon
Monday.
At the same time, two requests
were made for speakers to be
heard at hearings on the bills deal
ing with the segregation problem.
The hearings are scheduled for
their individual Opinions but the
many that I have interviewed were
anxious to extend their thanks to
each and every one who have
helped us in any way. We are all
eager to consummate the plan that
will secure our future and restore
our valley to its original beautv
and peace."
Tuesday at 10 a.m.
Paul K. Moore of Raleigh and
the Rev. Morris A. Kidder of
Chapel Hill, president of the Carr
boro-Chapel Hill Ministerial As
sociation. filed the requests.
MooiY stated that he would like
time "to speak out against the pro
posed constitutional amendments."
He said that he was not represent
ing any group or organization and
while opposed to integration was
also opposed to the local option
and tuition grants plan.
Mr. Kidder said that Iris associa
tion had requested time for one
speaker at the hearings. He did
not say whether the group would
endorse or oppose the legislation,
but a recent series ol association
sponsored speakers took issue
with state handling the issue.
The proposed legislation would
allow the state to pay tuition
grants to send students to private
schools when their parents do not
want them to attend racially mix
ed classes and would allow a local
school unit to suspend operations
if conditions become "intolerable."
About 22 per cent of U. S.
spending units (families and single
people' had incomes from $5,000 to
$".500 in 1955.
