Meeting of Health Dis
trict Held Thursday
In Elizabeth City
A thirty day extension, to July 1,
was granted for the new amendment
to the U. S. Health Ordinance last
Thursday, May 13, when the Perquim
ans - Pasquotank - Camden - Chowan
Health board met and heard the public
and the dairies concerned express
their opinions on the order.
G. C. Coleman, president of Birt
cherd’s Dairy in Norfolk, stated to
the board that Birtcherd’s Milk was
first brought into this territory by
request of Government installations,
then at the request of the people. He
further stated that Birtcherd’s milk
was sold from one to three cents
higher than that of local dairies and
presented petitions signed by Birt
cnerd customers.
J. D. C. Rockefeller, president of
Miller’s Dairy, who supplies Albe
marle Dairy of Edienton with milk,
merely requested a six months ex
tension of time in order to consider
the erection of a bottling and pack
aging plant in the area. Mr. Rocke
feller offered no petitions and was
highly commended by Dr. Weeks,
member of the board, on his attitude
toward the ordinance.
Woody Foreman of Elizabeth City
stated that local dairies wanted to get
Norfolk Dairies out of this district
in order to get a aale for their own
products rather than- losing them.
Jimmie Church of the Albemarle
Dairy in Edenton, speaking strictly
in his own behalf, told the board that
he had gone heavily in debt over two 1
years ago in order to deliver a vital
food to the children of Chowan Coun- ,
ty when no local dairy or concerns ,
would take the chance on this step.
He implied that he felt that he was
being given a raw deal by being
thrown out on a thirty day notice, not
being given a chance to repay his debt
in full.
Several local producers and distri
butors spoke to the board, all im
plying that they could not sell their
milk to the public against competition
from Norfolk Dairies.
Two Birtcherd customers, R. K:
Renton and Macon Johnson of South
Mills asked the board for the contin
uance of Norfolk milk.
J-immie Church has announced to
his customers and to the public that
no matter what the rumors have been,
neither he nor Miller’s Dairy have any
intention of going out of business in
Chowan County. However, he states
that they will comply and cooperate
with the ruLings of the Health Board.
Mr. Church also stated that he or
Miller’s dairy did not draw up ape

U. S. SENATE VOTE SHOWS: -
Graham Favors No Segregation
In Washington, D. C. Schools
In 1949 the U. S. Senate was considering a bill known as “Home Rule for the District
of Columbia,” which would give Washington City Council the right to abolish existing segre
gation in their schools.
Senator Eastland of Mississippi proposed an amendment which would give the people of
Washington a right to vote on whether they desired to abolish segregation in their schools.
This amendment was designed to give the people in Washington, D. C., the right to vote
on segregation.
Every Southern Senator Voted For This Amendment
» •
EXCEPT
GDAIUM, PEPPER AND KEFABVK
Three weeks ago the people of Florida repudiated and defeated Pepper for renomina
tion by an overwhelming majority.
Nineteen Southern Senators voted for this amendment, including SENATOR HOEY of
North Carolina, BUT it was defeated by Graham-Pepper-Kefauver, who voted with North
ern Republicans and Democrats. Thus,

Yet, he talks glibly about handling the race problem in the North
Carolina Way.

exertion, excessive smoking or exposure to
cold sometimes slows down kidney func

plain of nagging backache, loss of pep and
energy, headaches and dizziness. Getting
up nights or frequent passages may result
from minor bladder irritations due to cold,
dampness or dietary indiscretions.

causes, don*t wait, try Doan's Pills, a mild
