Miss Colwell’s report especially ■ startled the Commissioners by the ! notation that 125 bales of cotton had ! been used in the work already done. ! The board expressed itself as be lieving that a few bales might have i been secured anr used, but 125 bales i were to the Commissioners somewhat J i astounding. They were also inter -1 ested in the report’s statistics show i ing that 11,880 yards of ticking had ; been used so far as well as 7,510 l yards of percale.

The actual coat of i the ticking and cotton in ''each mat rons, based on the amount of mater ’ ial used, would be, Miss Colwell said, around $7.50, and for a comforter, ’ $1.90. As has been said, all the money received goes tq meet ma • terial costs, and some of the: needles 1 alone used in mattress making run ; as high as 40 cents each. This is one welfare project in ~ Chowan in which the citizentimp tak es pride and the Commissioners- ex pressed themselves as gratified at ! the report made by Miss Colwell. 11 Points Sliced Off County Tax Rate (Continued from Page One) unit, a balance of about $3,300 ap peared in the county unit, of which amount SI,BOO Iwas paid for two busses not in the budget, while a comparative .balance was not shown in the Edenton unit. Superintend ent W. J. Taylor explained that some of the balance was an accumulation of money coming into the unit over a period of years, but for some rea son the Commissioners were at sea as to why a similar balance was not shown in the Edenton unit. Super intendent John A. Holmes, too, was puzzled and determined to tussle with the figures to see how the difference resulted. The city school budget calls for im provements at the colored school, fvhere six more class rooms will be added and additional toilet facilities provided. According to the plans, the space occupied by four of the class rooms can be easily transform ed into a lunch room and used for an assembly room and recreational pur poses. The cost of these improvements will be about $21,000, of which the J taxpayers will pay about $15,000 by means of a WPA project. None of this expense, however, was included in this year’s budget, for it will not get underway until August at least and will, therefore, have to be includ ed in next year’s budget. Bonds will .be sold, and of course, will be paid I off over a period of years. PAGE FIVE
