SECTION TWO Isn’t there any significant writing being done nowadays’ Too often I pick up a magazine and begin a story, only to see at the bottom of the page: copy right by the author, 1941 or 1926 or 1950 of some such ancient date. And the newsstands con tain more reprint books than first editions. Is the demand for magazines and books so great that publishers have to rely too TERMITES SWARMING? "PHONE 482-2141 EDENTON. N. C.

PHIL OSOPHER SAYS No' matter how good you think you are at some things, sooner or la- ] ter you’ll run into somebody just as' good as’ you are, or maybe better. It wasn’t so long ago when a man could run a fair size busi ness on less bookkeeping than it now takes for the average man to keep track of his individual affairs. Social security and its many ramifications, income tax. banking, forms of all kinds to fill out and red tape to tie and untie, all this now enmeshes j each one'of us regardless of our j bank balance or pocket change, i Others may have their , house Cupola House or other' ' points of historical interest, but i as for me the water tank at the foot of Broad Street that was re cently removed, was a landmark jOf equal interest. It had the i earthy kinship of commonplace I things, if not the splendor of ; more hallowed shrines. And its ! passing leaves an emptiness in my heart, and the vacant spot on I the skyline reminds us that it j will long be missed. AFTER-THOUGHT—One of the ; most significant sidelights on the Cuban crisis, is the fact that Khrushchev (and the world) learned that Americans were not as fearful of atomic war as had been believed. I do not think that America, when the chips are down will • hesitate, even in j the face of nuclear warfare to S defend our traditional freedom | and liberty. This country will never be enslaved by commun ism—death would be preferred. ! Eastern Shore Garden i Week April 25 And 26 1 On Thursday and Friday, April 25 and 26, the Garden Club of j the Eastern S-tore wdl epen to j Garden Week visitors twelve of i the Shore’s outstanding homes | and gardens. As always on the Eastern I Shore, emphasis is on the old Jand historic, for this is the sec lond oldest permanent English I settlement in the United States, j This year the earliest of the I homes to be opened dates back to the 17th \century, ethers are 'of 18th century origin with later I addition, one only is of modern | construction and this, too, is tra ditional in character. These ' homes exemplify a type of co lonial architecture peculiar to the Eastern Shore; their lines are simple*and dignified, their pro portions are of pleasing excel- I lence and their interiors are en , hanced by fine woodwork carved 'by local craftsmen. Each home contains antique furniture and decorative objects of much inter est, including many pieces indi genous to the Shore which have descended through many genera tions of the same family.

We often forget that Christ is still alive tocfay and we fail to know what a great change this living Lord can make in our lives. We can realize His transforming power over our lives if we will view His disciples in two in stances. First we see them the night after the crucifixion of Jesus. No doubt they mustvhave gather ed together in the upper room behind barred doors for they were afraid of the Jews. As they sit around the table dejec tion is written on their faces. Fate has flogged them, life has let them down, their Lord is dead. There is no more purpose SENATOR Sam Ervin SAYS Washington Spring had a | dual significance last week in j the celebrations of North Caro-, lina’s Azalea Festival at Wil-! mington and in the National Cherry Blossom Festival in the Capital. The splendir of the azaleas and the cherry blossoms ordain the most pleasant season of the year. The prime issue of the session —the tax cut—is far from solved at this stage of the session. The House Ways and Means Commit tee concluded public hearings on March 27, but it will be weeks yet before the Committee states its views to the House on the measure. The measure produced ' some interesting sidelights last ! week. The Presidential message ! on foreign aid trimmed the origi nal $4.9 billion request by S4OO | millions, but the Senate passed j the Urban Mass Transit Bill ' which carries $375 million of new grants and $375 million in I new authority to-gaarantee—loczrt | revenue bonds for fiscal years I through 1966. At the same time, the current Senate investigation] on the $6.5 billion TFX contract award to General Dynamics in volves an effort by the Defense | Secretary to hold down military 1 costs.

Christ is crucified, dead and buried. The next scene is a few weeks later. Jesus Christ has been raised from the dead and has shown Himself to them. They! have talked and lived with Him L once more. Now a new beam of , hope and victory burns in their i eyes. Now they are no longer j behind locked doors but out in the streets with a message 1 burn-1 j ing in their hearts. What is that 1 message?

I look for further Congressional cuts in the up coming foreign aid appropria tion. The Senate Permanent Sub committee on Investigations got off to an unfortunate start in its investigation of the TFJ war plane contract award to General Dynamics.

C. j erated about the decision, it would be well to remember that Secretary McNamara was endea voring to save the Federal gov ernment about $1 billion in costs by attempting to procure a uni form warplane which could be used by both the Navy and the. Air Force. Efforts to hold the line on the i budget faltered with the Senate passage of the Urban Mass Transie Bill. The Senate bill autohrizes grants and guarantees of revenue bonds to meet city transportation problems. Pro- ‘ ponents have estimated the fu ture costs of the Federal pro gram to range upwards to §lO billion in the decade ahead. What is important is that a pre cedent for aid do cities has been set in areas heretofore financed on a local level. j A graphic illustration of what' is likely to occur in this new program of expenditures is giv en by Senator Lausche of Ohio.' The other day in the Senate he recounted Cleveland’s efforts to build “a transit system on its 'own initiative” ... He said: ‘‘Taxes were voted. Highways were ordered rebuilt . . . Then word came from Washington that there was to be a giveaway program. What happened? The officials of Cleveland (Ohio) changed their judgment. One of the members of the board said, “If the Government is planning to give the money away why should we spend our own mon- 1 ey?” So they changed their vote,! and now they are waiting to see 1 whether the Federal Government FOR Contract AND Repair Work CALL Twiddv Insurance & Real Estate, Inc.
