After the hearing is completed the council will have legal power to enact the plan into a regular city ordinance. Veterans Memorial The veterans memorial was sug gested by Councilman J. E. L. Wade. The resolution authorizes Mayor Lane to arrange a meeting between the council and the New Hanover County Board of Commis sioners in order to discuss a me morial suitable for veterans of the city as well as of the entire county. Among the proposals so far for warded for the memorial is the erection of a large plaque, bear ing a complete roster of the vet erans’ names, on the city hall lawn. USO Purchase In directing jeenson te continue negotiations for possible purchase of the USO building, the council indicated that it might boost ;ts bid of $8,500. The building and equip ment are owned by the federal government although the structure is located on city-owned property. The government has rejected the $8,500 bid as being too low. Eight before he left the city’s employ, former City Manager A. C. Nichols said he thought the city should up the bid to $10,000 to clinch the deal. Nichols said he thought the build ing, plus the equipment, was worth that much, and it is possible that the council wall carry out the sug gestion. More than 80 percent of the U. S. fui goods industry is located in New York. Now Is The Time for The Nuisance Sales Tax To Go! VOTE FOR THOMAS E. (Tom) COOPER FOR STATE SENATOR (Paid Political Advt.)

Your GI Rights Questions and Answers On Servicemen’s Problems * By DOUGLAS LARSEN WASHINGTON _ The surplus property law has been changed to give you veterans a better break. You can now buy surplus goods, with a priority, for personal use. And you have been given second priority instead of third priority. Only federal agencies now can get surplus itmes before veterans. State and other non-profit, tax-sup ported institutions now have third -choice, coming after ex - service men. Here is exactly what you have to do in order to buy surplus property: Get the address of the nearest War Assets Administration cer tification office. You can get this address from any veterans’ organ ization oi from the local post office. If you are going to mail in your application, get a certified copy of your discharge. If you go in person, all you have to do is show your discharge or submit other proof that you are an eligible veterans. You have to decide exactly what you want to buy before you apply for a ce) tification. You can only be certified foi one item, or regu lar unit of items, at a time. You have to describe just exactly what you want, specifying size,, color, etc. If you are not buying at a regu lar sale whole you can see exactly what you a>e getting, you have to wait until the regional office finds what you want. Orders will be fill ed “firs1 come, first served.” WAA will write to you, when it lias located what you want to buy, and teii you what condition it is in and where it is located. You must pay freight charges from wherever it is stored. If you are going to make per son.-.l use of the goods, you have to sign a statement to this effect. And it is a felony if you resell your purchase after signing the statement. WAA warns that most items which have been placed on the “set aside” list are scarce and in great demand. You had better get your bid in right now if you expect to get what you want. Dial 2-3311 For Newspaper Service Eyes Sore? Tired? Here’s prompt relief!

' Heart Beats On After Woman Quits Breathing 21 — (>P)—1The heart of a young woman patient in Erlanger hos pital continued a “slow, even beat” for 26 hours after she had, “to all intents and pur poses, ceased breathing,” Dr. A. E. Branton, superintendent of the institution, said Tuesday. The physician - administrator said it was a “very unsual case, ’ and one in which he could recall off hand no parallel in medical records. The young woman underwent a brain operation Sunday after noon and apparently ceased breathing at 4 p.m. Attending physicians said, however, that her hear, continued its beat until 6:10 p.m. Monday before it finaJJy ceased. “Of course there was some breathing, enough to supply oxygen, sufficient to maintain he1- in an existing condition, but the breathing was not detect able,’- Dr. Branton said.” It was probable, he added, that a “brain tumor depressed the respiratory center,” slowing the breathing to imperceptibil ity. He said time of death was set at tiie moment the heart beats ceased. GEORGE WASHINGTON WAS LATE TO WORK; SO HE GOT DOCKED RICHMOND, Va., May 21.— 0P)—President George Washing ton showed up a couple of months late at his desk, so the Treasury docked his salary $3,908. This came to light when the George Washington Home Res toration, Inc., sought to get the money to start off a na tional fund drive. The Treasury informed the organization that history showed Washington did not take office until almost two months after he was supposed to, because of difficulty in or ganizing the government. Therefore, the money was not rightfully owing.
