Salvation Army solicitors will he making visits to the homes throughout the county. They are deputized by the local Salvation Army committee which was re-organized several weeks ago to continue the valuable service of this humanitarian organisation In this county. The committee hopes to raise $1,000 this week. These funds will then be available throughout the year (or use in emergen cies and the unmet needs of the community, broadening the scope of social service thinistry and action. The community of Atlantic has already contributed $32. Much more should be forthcoming from other communities in (be county to continue the Salvation Army's program of aiding the handicapped, offering counsel and assistance to unwed moth ers, giving service in time of fire or hurricane, and providing care (or the homeless. A brief summary of the never-ceasing work carried on by the Salvation Army follows: 1. Christianity in action ? the work of spreading the Gospel it carried on by workers through Open Air Ministry, singing and preaching at the crossroads of town and country. 2. Maternity homes and hospitals ? The Salvation Army Home and Hospital at Durham is maintained to provide care for un married mothers. The girls are given the best medical and sur gical treatment, and provided with a homelike haven before and after birth of the child. There are 34 such homes and hos pitals in the United Statel. 3. Care for the homeless ? Hundreds of persons, because of unemployment and family maladjustment have become wanderers from city to city. This great host of humanity comes from every county in the country and is a potential menace to society unless given shelter and kindly counsel. The Salvation Army provides that service and hundreds of individuals have been helped to take their place as useful citizens in the community. 4. Prison work ? The Salvation Army serves the inmates of practically every state and federal prison and house of correction in the United States. It acts as friend. and adviser to these men and women. The Salvation Army deserves every support we can give. If a solicitor does not contact you personally, contributions can be nailed directly to Sam Adler, Morehead City, chairman of the county Salvation Army committee. Thoughts for an open mind ...

I SUPp^V ?it Covering the Waterfront By AYCOCK BROWN Morehead City, N C. ? About a hundred years after it should have been done in the first place, North Carolina is now advertising its potential and existing port facili ties here and at Wilmington. Be cause the State waited a century to get around to doing this, the ports of other states which in the beginning had no more to offer that what Morehead City has with in a stone's throw, literally, of the deep ocean and what Wilmington had on its great river, fofged a head from a development stand point while the ports of North Carolina made progress slowl# An advertisement appearing in recant lsues of U. S. News and World Report, Business Week, Newsweek, Nation's Busjness and Fortune carried the 'Signature "NORTH CAROLINA- Condition ed by Nature for Industrial Profit." Even more interesting was the caption over this ad, which car ried pictures of proposed port developments at Morehead City and Wilmington and a section of the State map showing the loca tion of the two cities, was: "Put ting the Seven Seas to work for North Carolina's Industry." The ad layout was prepared by Ayer and GUlett, Inc., (he firm which has done a pretty good job, I would say, of handling the State'a advertiaing account. In the background of the agency preparing the ad though one who hfs been interested in port devel opment can see another picture ? a picture that includes men like Colonel George W. Gillette and Rye Page of Wilmington, Dr. Ben Royal, Sy Gibbs and Bob Lowe of Morehead City, and looking back even farther there are such per sons as the late Maurice Beaman, and the late Bruce Cameron who deserve a place in the picture. There are probably many more, but somehow all of the ground work laid in the beginning was not brought to an active beginning for development until Col. Gillette re turned from the wars and his army career, to take over the actual pushing, that makea the develop ment a reality instead iof one just planned. How the "Seven Seas" will be put to work (or "North Carolina's Industry," was told as follows: "Now North Carolina indust rialists will have another great profit advantage working for them. North Carolina's two deep sea ports - to be expanded by a multi-million dollar state pro gram ? will place at their scrvice the most modern marine shipping facilities on the Atlantic sea board." "industries in 92 percent of the State's area will realize transport ation savings on import, export, coastwise, and intercoastal com merce from expanded facilities at Morehead City and Wilmington, N. C. Already planned are approxi mately 800,000 square leet of -ditlonal storage warehouses and transient sheds . . . modern fumi gating plants . . . marginal wharves with up-to-date minute loading e quipment -and guod rail and switch ing scrvice, soon to be at the Souths Number One Industrial State." "Plant sites at two-dosen feeder porta provide shippers with con venient inland waterway access to deep sea terminals. Excellent rail, air, and motor express facilities link Morehead City and Wilming ton to hundreds of wide-awake North Carolina towns which offer mild climate, economical electric power, raw material* abundant dependable labor and other advant ages to help you produce at great er profit." "Why not gear your plans for industrial expansion or relocation to the increasing production ad vantages provided by North Caro lina's "Go Forward" program." In that last sentence I see new faces appearing in th. port ex pansion program. I see Governor %tn Scott and his atoinlatra tlon . . Just as one can also see other great North Carolina gov ernors of recant years, whose administrations lent support to what is becoming a reality, ap pearing in the composite picture of North Carolina's port develop ment and Industry.
