Shades of Iht CIO
In March of last year many
were interested in the International Fiqherman sod Allied Work
ers of America, CIO. Locals were organize at Atlantic and Har
Ikers Island and there was talk of one for Morehead, but this plan
'failed to materialize.
After the first shot out ol the barrel, organization and elec
tion of officers, little if anything was beard about the unions.
Organization was effected mainly, the officers ssid, to se
cure better prices for fish. The strike in the Broad Creek-Swans-boro
section is the first overt indication since union organization
that fishermen have been dissatisfied with prices they have been
receiving. Dissatisfied, anyway, to the point where they have
taken action to change an existing situation.
They are objecting to the 15 and 20 cents per pound being
paid, they say, by dealers in this section, while at Englehard 2G
and 28 cents is being paid for the same kind of shrimp. ,
v A Beaufort dealer contacted yesterday said that shrimp are
running large now in Neuse river and price being paid on 28
count is about 27 cents with the heads on or 50 cents beaded.
i The shrimp being caught by
Jp Swansboro section are smaller,
' !K"iact, dealers couldn't afford to buy
& started coming in.
The price being paid generally
: -jtelhe wholesale price quoted on
Shrimp headed, 28 32 count, were 50 cents. At the lower end of
ilthe scale, shrimp headed. 50-55 count, were hrineinir nnlv 25 rents
Broad Crcek-Swansboro shrimpers are, of course, finding it
unprofitable to take shrimp for which there is no market. The
afcfateresting part is, organized or not, tbey are using CIO tactics
to better their lot. Maybe the Ihtematicual Fisherman and
Allied Workers of America hasn't died a natural death here
after all.
JMaytjround for Thieves and
, Many persons, youngsters and
r-randalism in them. This is curbed
sure and to some extent by law.
One of the favorite sites for vandals to wreak destruction is
in cemeteries. Witbin reeent days at Ocesn View cemetery
Beaufort, potted plants have been stolen from graves and shrub
bery has been damaged. In the past it has been reported that
valuable shrubs, such as japonica or cape jasmine have simply
been cut to the ground.
Theft at th graveyard is a double crime, both the living and
' the dead are robbed. And if the dead have the power to haunt,
may they give no rest te the thieves that steal and destroy.
The living will endeavor to stop such action, in their own
way, by resort to law.
This should not he necessary, yet few peeal realize that they
acquire a certain dignity when they know how to respect the prop
erty rights of ethers.

IN! THE PAPERS W. Kerr
Scott didn't know anything about
the dinner until he read about it
in the papers, and neither did Mc
London. Plans for It came out
rather suddenly, but it seems to
be something of a "must" now

thing- Ike. Democratic Party needs

CHANGE At the suggestion
of Governor Nominate Kerr Scott,
the date for the Joyner-McLendon-Wsynick
Diaaer has been changed
tram August 12 to August 13. This
column was notified of the change
aa Sunday afteraoos, afjer the
above had been written. In re
questing the new date, Scott ex
pressed the opinion that members ;
"' the Slate Democratic Executive j
Committee who attend the meet
ing 10 be held in the Hons,- side
of the Capitol at- 8 o'clock on the
evening of August 13 might like
to have dinner at the Fairgrounds.
This they can now do for $1.50,
which is not bad in Raleigh
and will not have to be here for
more than a few hours.
IN DIRE STRAITS The Pro
gressives and the Dixiecrats are
giving the registrars in many
counties of the State a fit. They
have them running in circles li
terally aid mentally. . . . names,
names . . . that's what they want
on those books ... at 10 cents per
name. The cost would run nearer
a $1 in many cases.
You find the Democratic' Party,
flowing, in this State at'.least. be-i
tween two rather swiftly movifia
streams the Progressives and
Dixiecrats with each taking
strength away from the Democrats.
The Dixie boys are getting the con
servatives and the Progressives are
getting the lunatic fringe. Mean
time, the Republicans, holding so
lid in one closely woven mass, are
tittering behind their hands.
JUST BUSINESS What man
ner of man is this Bob Redwine?
A native of Alabama, a resident of
North Carolina via Georgia, a wri
ter of ads for Scott in his cam
paign, a helper in the J. M. Brough
ton headquarters, a traveler to
Philadelphia and the National De-
Vioerntic Convention for Mr.
Broughton, and now a writer of
ads for the Dixiecrats, Bob Red
wine is a public relations man in
Raleigh, and he takes his clients as
tbey come. .
Redwine came to Raleigh as re
presentative of Eastman Scott of
Atlanta, advertising agency which
handled national advertising for
North Carolina. When the ad
vertising contract was taken from
Eastman Scott, a lot of people
thought that would be the last of
Redwine in this State. But he de
cided to hang around as a publie
relations agency. He won with
Broughton. He won with Scott.
Now he's rendering little service
for the Dixiecrats.
P. S. It begins to look as if that
advertising contract may go back
to Eastman Scott some time next
year.
DAWG DAYS Dog days
the time of year when little boys
with skinned toes and barked heels
must not' walk barefooted in the
wet grass descended like a cloud
on the Raleigh News and Observer
last week. Sitting down to break
fast with the Old Reliable last Fri
day morning this is the headline
which accompanied your bacon and
eggs: "Poison Silences 13 Hunting
Dogs in Nash." There was a three
column picture to prove it. Then
down there in the corner of the
paper under the simple head,
"Bloodhounds," another story:
"The flop-eared, ugly bloodhound
still remains unrivaled as the
surest man-hunter . . V
Tben oa the back page a story
from Chapel Hill by Bob Madry
of the University News Bureau:
"Dog-Killing Plan Denied," then
another on the same page from
Gastooia: "They're Competing for
Dog."
NOTES Although Kerr Craig
Ramsey of Rowan County is
thought to have the Inside trsck
for Speaker of the House in the
