• at the meeting were
Col. Jiithert Taylor, Col. W. E.
Ingram, Major Walter Beale and
J. H. Aabell, representing the
N. C. National Guard. The Na
tional Guard desires about 90
acres at the Naval Air Station
to use as a firing ranee but ob
jected to the 90-day cancellation
clause as 1 originally included in'
the lease. Col. Taylpr stated:
that the Adjutant General of
the National Guard and the At-;
•'"wv General objected tq the i
90-day - cancellation clause and>
ior mat reason requested Town ■
Council to extend the lease for'
from three to five' years. He!
stated that the National Guard.
would invest at least $3,500 in
improvements and that the state
• officials were reluctant to ac- -
cept the lease with the possi
bility that the Guard would be
requested to vacate in event the
property was desired for an in
dustrial prospect. The Council-1
men agreed to consider a longer
lease, but atill protect the town;
in case the property is needed 1
for industry. The proposition i
was forwarded to Col. Taylor
in the hope that the .terms will
be satisfactory*
Col. Taylor stated that the
firing range would be used by j
some dozen National Guard
units in the eastern section of
the state and that groups from
90 to 130 men would train over
week-ends.
A group of citizens living on!
East Eden ind King Streets ap
peared at the meeting seeking
-elief for conditions
during rains. This area has
first priority in an overall
drainage program and the cost
is estimated at about $25,000. A
—-nrr> ; *t’e was appointed to con
fer with George Freeman, the
luwns engineer, to determine if
something cannot be done to
provide temporary relief until j
funds are available to make the
major improvements.
The Councilmen, by a split;
j vote, decided to purchase a
; number of fine-o-meter boxes to
i be placed in the business sec
! tion. This plan was adopted to
•eliminate the unpleasantness on
j the part of parking violators.!
Upon receipt of a ticket, the of-j
fender will not be obliged to go
to the Police Station to pay five
i cents per hour for parking. In- j
stead the fine can be placed in
a fine-o-meter in the vicinity of
where the overparking occurred. |
! The plan was recommended by j
the Merchants Committee of the! :
1 Chamber of Commerce in the;
i belief that it would cause less ;
I objection on the part of shop- j
pers and visitors.

ied at the next Council meet- ,

Area Development kick-off
meeting at Elizabeth City last
Friday night. Chowan County!
had forty present.
An excellent address on “Area
Development. In Action” was,
made by Voit Gilmore of.
Southern Pines. Mr. Gilmore
enumerated many accomplish
ments of area development or-1
ganization in his area and other!
areas of the State. Among
these were accomplishments in
the development of industry, 1
agriculture, community develop-!
ment and travel and recreation
which are all of the four main
channels of action for this new
area.
John Crawford, N. C. State
College Extension Specialist in
Community and Area Develop
ment, explained how area de
velopment is organized in the
community, county and area.
He outlined how these areas fit;
and work together in this great;
machine of progress. It is a
means whereby the family, the
community, the county, the area,
and the state can “Lift Itself By
Its Bootstraps” to a better life.
Watch, for opportunities to par
ticipate and help.
This Is Pasture Time: I hope
that all who plan to seed pas-
I lures this fall have had the soil
I tested and have the soil test
I report as a guide for lime and
1 fertilizer needs. Those who
1 have not are “Dragging Their
Feet” as far as good pastures
1 1 are concerned. Soil samples
I .submitted immediately will give
’I a report in about ten day 3, so
'j don’t wait.
1 I have reviewed eppies of soil
test reports to date. Occasion
ally, one shows no lime needed,
, but 95% or more' recommend
j one or more tons of lime per
! acie. A few reports show a
j need for as much as four tons
iof lime per acre,
j You are sowing pastures for
: grazing, not just to try to cover
iup some land with plants. So.
why not do the job right andj
I get good grazing. The properl
■ amount of lime and the right;
j analysis and amount of fertilizer
;is necessary for good results.’
;Be sure to inoculate Ladino
; Clover seed properly. Sow your
• pasture as soon as possible this
j month.
