On the Eu ropean side itself, the effort to tny a joint float has underlined again that anything like total economic unity within the market is still a good distance off. Italy and Great Britain remained at the edge of the joint fl)at pact. They have their own proble.ns still to be settled with the market.

Maunoy, Jr., wa.s pic tured in the Sunday Chariotte Observer (iivec beard), in connection with a rath er exhaustive news story by an Observer reporter concerning aJleged conflict-of- interest .situations in which legislators find themsslve.s. Specifically, the Observer reporter accused Senator Mauney of leading the winning fight in defeating a “very tough" anti-pollution bill, with the con current statement adoption of such a bill might force him to close Mauney Hosiery Company, a firm in which he had been the guiding spirit since it open ed in 1939. The Herald has not talked willi Sen ator Mauney, does not know the terms of the “very tough" proposals, and con sequently has no judgment concerning it at the moment. The Herald is aware, however, of the city’s rather recently enacted wa.ste disposal law, and, since Senator Mau- ney’s firm is within the environs of the city, presume.s Mauney Hosiery Com pany to be in compliance. At least two firms which were not in compliance, K Mills and Oxford In dustries, have taken the measures the law requires. Earlier, under state pres sure, Massachusetts Mohair Flush Com pany, complied to existing state stalutos To date, the major problems of .sewage disposal into city systems by- industrial dyestuffs have been 1) quan tity of toxic chemicals in the effluent, 2) quantity of effluent and 3) dumping of effluent rather holding it for grad ual release. These problems were the essential ones which has caused residents of the McGill treatment plant area periodic nasal pain, the city a serious problem, and the industries served by this plant the expense of holding basins. There is always apparent the prob lem of over-taxing treatment facilities. The McGill plant, built in 1954, was doubled in capacity long before its pre dicted usage. Now the city is preparing to double capacity of its Potts Creek plant in an attempt to be ahead of the over-load that unpredicted growth creates. It's still the hindsighter, not the foresighter, who wins. How “tough ’ should an anti-pollu tion bill be? That's another moot question with many variable answers. How many customers downstream use the streams as potable water sup plies? How much is the mean flow? And what of the future? Again, predictions of the finest en gineers are often defied by what actual ly happens. Pete Ivey in Chapel Htll Newspaper FfrencHS B?aT'd A woman was buying one of those indoor outdoor thermometers as a gift for her husband. After ILstcning careful- Iv to the clerk extolling the merits of the various models he canded she still seemed undecided as to which one .she’d buy.

Shelby Daily Star Missinq Link We notice that the famous “missing link” of Interstate 40 around Hickory hns been let to contract and that by 1975, that highway should bo eompleteu. What concerns us now is that Interstate So, whoso equally famous “missing I'nk” at Henderson has been filled by con- ci’cte, still has a long portion that needs work. That’s from Greensboro south to the vicinity of Lexington, where “Tem porary 1-85’’ signs are code words for bumps, uneven shoulders, dangerous in tersections and the like. Anvone who went to the Atlantic Coast Confecpnce basketball tournament, or who has gone to Durham via I-R5 lately, knows ^at w« mean. Canine Call 'i he city’s dog ordinance committee, headed by City Commis.sioner Jonas Bridges, has formulated some proposed regulations it rocommend.s the city enact into law. On Tuesday night, the city com mission will conduct a public hearing on these recommendations and, if true I to form, dog lovers (and their opposite i numbers) will turn out in force. To the flerald (dog lover), the recommendations appear reasonable. Owners would be I'equired to leash their dogs on strolls and otherwise keep the canines contained. Otherwise, its a trip to the county dog pound (now be ing planned) and fines for owners who haven’t obeyed the ordinance. Canines should not be allowed to bother others, including dog haters. There are .some apparent problems, chief among them the owner of the l)ig dog who leaps the fence to his com pound, or the little dog who burrows under and provides himself an escape hatch, or “cat hole’’. Some canines are most adept at these methods of taking a night out on the town. But there’s potential canines, too. benefits for On South Goforth street, there's a pretty black dog with a wad of cotton on the end of his tail who isn’t long for this world, if the doggie keeps chasing cars. And this doggie has to be mighty, mighty tired to miss a single gallop. News note via the Christian Science Monitor: the Mayor of Lewiston. N. Y., is recommending to his council that it adopt an ordinance banning “X-rated movies from the environs of the com munity. No real hurry, though. There’s not a single movie house in town. The Herald joins the community in considerable condolences to Mr. and Mrs. Tolly Shuford. Funeral for Mr. Shuford s mother was Saturday, for Mrs. Shuford’s Tuesday. Hearty congratulations to the Jack Hughes family, winner of the district farmers Home Administration honors for the year, and thereby district eai'.- didate tor slate honors. William J. Lederer in The National Observer The Marnage Chart The median length of marriages ending in divorce is 9.9 years. *At ieast one-third of the couples married in 19’(2 ultimately will be di vorced (this it a coii.servativc projec tion).
