VFW Is Celebrating
Its Golden Jubille
Freedom, Happiness and
Peace Is Aim of Or
ganization
Members of the William H. Cof
field, Jr., Post, Veterans of Foreign
Wars, are joining this week in the
national celebration of the Golden
Jubilee anniversary, of the VFW of
the United States.
Throughout the years the VFW
has won the respect of the American
people as the “Gold Chevron Organi
zation” because its members have
earned the right to wear gold chev
‘ roffS or barg, the U. S. Army badge
of overseas service in time of war.
Today, the Veterans of Foreign
Wars comprises more than ten thous
and posts or local units, in communi
ties throughout the nation, in its ter
-ritories and possessions. There are,
in addition, some seven thousand
ladies’ auxiliaries.
The fighting men who compose the
Veterans of Foreign Wars are the
■most ardent champions of prepared
ness. They have asked Congress to
set up a defense system that will be
adequate to cope with any sudden
emergency.
The Veterans of Foreign Wars is
folding high the banner of human
liberty, of justice, of peace and un
derstanding among all the peoples
of the world. They are carrying
•on the crusade that had its begin
ning fifty years ago. They ask no
more than that the American people
—and the free peoples throughout
the rest of the world continue to
•work with them —to pray with them
—to die with them if need be—to
preserve the God-given heritage of
•freedom and happiness and peace.

his intention to alarm anyone, but <
that the bridge is in bad shape and it <
appears that an entirely new struc
ture will have to be built. Both :
Evans and McKim stated that a fur
ther and more exhaustive survey of •
the bridge will be made, using divers, I
in order to determine more definitely
the condition of the concrete piling.
While home over the week-end, Mr \
McMullan expressed the opinion that
a new bridge will cost probably two
million dollars, so that financing ■
such a project would be a problem.
However, Mr, McMullan is optimistic 1
that some method can be found to 1
take care of an emergency such as
exists at present with the bridge. !
As the result of the meeting Mon- '
day with Evans and McKim, another J
meeting was scheduled to be held in
Edenton next Monday, when Edenton,
Windsor, Williamston, Hertford and
Elizabeth City are expected to send (
representatives ; n order to put ma
chinery to work in an effort to secure
adequate relief. ,
Meeting with the highway officials
Monday were G. C. Meads, Fred
Webb, Roland Garrett and W. R. (
Noud of Elizabeth City; Mayor V. N.
Darden of Hertford, and Marvin Wil
son, J. H. Conger, J. W. Davis, J.
