THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, MAY 11, life
Malcolm B. Seawell Speaks At
Lions Meeting Monday Night
Greeted by an almost 100 per
cent attendance of Lions and a
group of visitors, Malcolm B.
j Seawell, one of the four candi
] dates for Governor, spolie at the
X Lions Club meeting Monday
night. Mr. Seawell was 'intro
duced by Mayor John Mitchen
er and was! accompanied by O.
M. Dodson, a pilot who flew a
plane to Elizabeth City, from
where they motored to Edenton.
Mr. Seawell stated that he had
■ no prepared speech, but pre
ferred to speak “off the cuff.”
He referred to industry promo
tion in North Carolina, saying
wild and expensive type of gov
ernment is not unusual in any
campaign, which he cannot go
along with. He; said North Car
olina has grown gradually and
not on a start and stop basis,
and that it has grown that way
j because leaders realized that
from the depth of poverty the
J people must be brought up to
a place of pre-eminence, for the
( state’s greatest resource is the
1 people.
j Referring to education, he
: went back to the days of little
! schooling. He pointed out that
over the years 12 grades were
added to the schools where
■ young people were educated to
(a point they could reassert
themselves. He said teachers
j will receive a 5% salary increase
but when it comes to a $100,000,-
1 000 school program, there will
vbe a pay day, for it would be'
j necessary to raise taxes 17.06%.
j Heavy taxes, he said, will not
lonly keep people from coming i
i into 'the state, but it will pre-1
j vent industry from locating here, 1
| which is a source of per capita
j income. He pointed out that
the state under present condi
tions will realize enough money
ro concr.oe the various ser
vices. • . ' ,•
l The speaker also stated that
1 North Carolina is one of only 17
states to lira within its budget.
All others are in the red. he
said, and some have exhausted
their credit, but North Carolina
has been living within its means
for a long time. He said North
Carolina is 45th in per capita
income, but 7th in the amount
of money used for schools, and
has been able to pay off bond-
Jed indebtedness when it comes
| due. -Ttae date has a triple A
bond rating, he the dtighest
lin the land- V
1 .-The* speaker pointed out that
I per odp. -
| ita incomer- buVihat vefewto M*
| want industries looking- for- aik
give-away. He recommended in
dustries which use products rais
ed locally, referring to (the starch
concern to locate in Washington
County. Such industries, he
pointed out, not only increases
income, but raise income for
farmers. He also stressed 'the
advantage of industry in East
ern Carolina due to the water
and labor supply. He said im
proving ports and highways, too,
would help industries to focus
attention to this 'area.
