THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1960 r "a Tift'fok today God who commanded the light to shine out of daikness, hath smned in our Hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face ot Jesus Christ. —11 Cor. 4:6. The radiant love and joy on the face of our Lord came trom his conscious communication with the Eternal Father; the knowledge that He and the Father were one illuminated his per sonality, making him in truth the Light of the World. Fill our hearts with Thy love, O Father, that too, may say "The Kingdom of God is with in us." Look Homeward Angel (By HAUGHTON EHRINGHAUS) With proper apology to Thomas Wolfe, I can find no title more apt than the above. Plagiarism at its best can no better label the situation as exists now in our area. Die-hard Nixon and Gavin devotees must realize that even though their ship has sunk, they them selves are still afloat only by virtue of their adversaries. Let’s face facts. We in Eastern North Carolina are in the best position politically than we’ve been in over twenty years. Our area alone is responsible for North Carolina giving Senator Kennedy the largest majority that any state throughout the South gave. Furthermore, in spite of Gavin carrying fifty or more counties, we gave Terry Sanford an overwhelming vote of confidence and victory. Such a vote places our area in a most envia ble position. The Watch Dogs of the Demo cratic Party realize even more the import ance of Eastern Carolina votes. They can say in a singular breath, “God and Eastern North Carolina save the State”. Now, and I mean NOW, is the time for us to “Look Homeward Angel”. Here’s our position. It is almost inevitable that Gov ernor Hodges will assume the important role of Secretary of Commerce. Harold Cooley is even more embodied in prestige as chairman of the all powerful House Agricalture Com mittee. Our own Herbert Bonner preserves his prestige and weight in the House of Rep resentatives. Senators Erwin. Jordan, and even Republican Congressman Charles Jonas add materially to our status nationally and statewise. By right, we should see our de mands satisfied as never before. The im portant thing is that Eastern North Carolina is due for a break industrially, economically, or any other way by virtue of the vote we cast. We kept the line and pulled our state through. Not only nationally, but statewise we should descend enmass on Raleigh with our meal ticket in hand and demand that our pet projects be punched out —such projects as U. S. Highway 17; the rehabilitation of Harvey Point; the proper treatment for in dustrial growth and tourist attraction. With the powers that be we should be relentless in our drive and ambition. The time for the K.O. punch is at hand. Let’s swing it. We have been good to the Democratic party and it’s high time for them to be good to us. I’m all for Looking Homeward, for the Angels are amongst us! Planned Aggression FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover says. “The Soviets and their satellites have abused and will continue to abuse every privilege avail able to them. Soviet espionage agents have avidly acquired books, pamphlets, maps, tech nical journals and military publications for their military value. Russian intelligence files are filled with serial photographs of this nation’s cities, port facilities, missile bases and other strategic areas. Data concerning our transportation Systems, major industries, technological ad vances and other achievements are carefully collected by Soviet and satellite agents, many operating with diplomatic immunity from the United Nations in New York and their em bassies in Washington. D. C. Despite Khrushchev’s blatant mouthings regarding peace and fellowship among na tions, it is pure folly to ascribe these tactics to any other course but one of planned ag gression.” Knows No Justice You cannot insist on your rights while driv ing a high-horsepower car at high-speeds, re mind* the Portland. Oregon, Traffic Safety Ceqniifesion, because a hurtling out-of-control machine knows no justice for fair-play. ■ -i ■> y i: f —s Sorhe people think thev become experts on Up subject if they read a book about it. xJiearJ Cf J hvn U) Bui I i ■ -i TV -- r The editorial in the adjoining column was written by Haughton Ehringhaus, but it cir ries my thoughts. It’s high time for the Democratic powers-that-be to consider tin. eastern part of the state. It might not al ways be the case that eastern Carolina votes Democratic regardless of what attention is paid to it. Things could change even here in Chowan County. For instance, in 1936 there were only 96 Republican votes cast ir the county. In 1940 thp Republican vote dropped to 87. The 1944 Republican vote was 166 and dropped to 124 in .948. But, note, since 1952 the Republican vote has jumped to over 500. There were 533 Republican votes cast in the recent election. Eastern North Carolina Democrats could very easily take the attitude that if Democrats do very little for this section, maybe it might be a good idea to try the Republicans—and cast their votes accordingly. o Edenton’s Aces are scheduled to lock horns with Garner High School Friday night for the regional Class AA football championship, with the game to be played on the East Carolina College gridiron in Greenville. Both teams will enter the fray with enviable records and the Aces have been highly tooted in the news papers. However, a game is not won on pa per, but rather what is done on the football field will tell the tale. So here’s hoping the Aces will not take anything for granted and that they will play the sort of game of which they are capable. If they do, here’s one who believes they will again be crowned state champions. The game will, without doubt, attract a great many Edenton supporters, so maybe Mayor John Mitchener should issue an order that, at least, the police and fire men remain in Edenton Friday night. The school band, cheerleaders and all, will also be on hand, so Edenton fans should enjoy the game—especially if the Aces come off the; victors. The Aces trimmed Garner by a score of 13-0 in 1934 when the Aces won the state championship, so here’s hoping they can do it again. o Edenton Rotarians enjoyed a film at last week’s meeting which gave a very good idea of processing peanuts and other nuts by the All American Trust Company of Downey, California. The film was sent to Jim Wood by John Ritchie, president of the company. Mr. Ritchie has been in Edenton and sort of fell in love with thi town. Not so long ago he sent peanut favors for an Edenton ban- | quet and to say the least both the film and peanuts were very much enjoyed. o Jim Wood is a “good loser”. In last week’s general election two voters wrote in his name on the ballots for Congress. Jim, in an ad vertisement this week, thanks both of the voters who supported him for the high of fice of Congressman, even if he didn’t win Congressman Herbert Bonner’s seat. o Clarence Shackelford, in the absence of his wife, was telling me the other day that he runs things around his house. But I found out that about all he runs is the lawn mower, the vacuum cleaner and washing machine. Clarence also claims he has fooled his wife. He fails to remind her of his birthday so, he says, she thinks he’s still only about 28 years old. o A brief letter from Aubrey Shackell. now living in Charlotte and my boss many years ago, dropped me a short letter. He said his mother was 83 years old on October 27. “Nothing changes but time,” said Aubrey, “and we note that when we walk up a long hill.” And he’s so right, but the hill doesn’t have to be so very long at that. o The Chowan County Council of Home Demonstration Clubs held its annual hus band’s supper at Wards Community Build ing Tuesday night and I was specially invited to attend. However, fighting off the flue for about a week, with the flu still holidng the upper hand Tuesday, I was one who failed to turn up. With a headache, a few aching bones and muscles and with no appetite, I fig ured that supper was no place for me. I felt bad enough without being tormented because I could not have enjoyed the sort of meal those women poke at a person. Here’s hop ing the flu and I are on better terms next time the husband’s supper rolls around. o Just before filling up this, the last page of The Herald, I was informed by John Mitch ener that the Rev. Tom Davis of Greenville will preach at the Presbyterian Church this coming Sunday orning at 11 ojgjfgck- He will also preach the following Sunday morning, November 27, at 11 o’clock. It is hoped a large congregation will hear the visiting preacher. The Presbyterian* Are without a preacher, since the Rev. James MacKenzie recently left for Kannapolis. Yon don’t have to be a Presbyterian, however, to hear the visiting preacher the next two Sundays.
