—SECTION ONE PAGE SIX ||y, ? The titfrafoßUL ©TOMM)IK ' Learn Now Pay Later Increasing interest is being shown in plans for financing col lege educations by loans to stu dents. After all, almost every other kind of major purchase can be made on the installment plan. In the past, if a family could not pay college tuition from sav ings or current income, the stu dent had one of three’ choices; a scholarship, if eligible; work ing his way through; and bor rowing. Although borrowing will not be appropriate or desir able in all cases, with the in creased demand for college edu cation it must be considered. This situation leads some peo ple to argue that the federal government should make more funds available for loans on easy te :ns. The government is al ii ady in the field under the pro visions of the National Defense Education Act. When this law was being considered in 1953. some educators argued for out ri;;ht gifts to college students claiming it would be unfair t . “mortgage” a youngster’s future by having him go into debt far his higher education. Congress evidently found no merit in this claim and provided only a loan program. The goad records of repayment on college loans from non-federal sources may have contributed to the de cision that this form of debt !■> not too onerous. This speaks well for the good faith of stu dents who have borrowed in or der to go to college because, after all, an education cannot be re-possessed. Emphasis on the federal pro gram may arise partly from the j fact that alternative sources of! educational-loan funds are n>t j widely known. There are a number of state schemes f.r! underwriting student loans, and commercial bank credit is avail able for families who are will : ing to pay tuition if they ia.ij budget the cost on a monthly j basis. There is also a “college re serve program.” This last, ad ministered by United Student Aid Funds, Inc., allows colleges to deposit their loan funds as an 8 percent reserve for loans made to their students by com mercial banks. Thus $4,000 de posited becomes the reserve for $50,000 of loans, to lie repaid by “the students after they havej completed their education. The ingenuity with which lo- \ calities and private enterprise have approached the problem • makes it evident that there are, ‘alternatives to federally-subsidiz ed loans. Any college education ! is already subsidized because, j traditionally, tuition amounts to about half the actual cost. The student who really wants the; education should be willing to j repay his half. nOOfiSHEDBOXaCiiiiE i ON N.C.

Twenty-one projects in twenty two North Carolina counties are included, involving more than 53 miles of road construction. Three Interstate Route projects are also included. Among the projects is one call ing for 1.45 miles of grading and drainage for improvement to U. S. 17 and NC 32 in and near Edenton. Edenton Policemen Receive Certificates Continued Rom Page 1. Section 1 ‘the officers for completing the course and the splendid record they made. Those receiving the certificate were W. F. Miller, Charles H. Williams, Melvin W. Griffin, John D. Parrish, William S. Cle ments, Jr., H. J. Lupton and Er nest W. Connor. Chief Griffin had previously received a cer tificate. Sheriff Glenn R. Mat thews of Perquimans County also completed the course and will be sent his certificate. The Councilmen devoted some time to the idea of funneling traffic at Broad and Church Streets at the Triangle Restau rant and Broad and Queen Streets. Prepared maps were I presented to better explain the plan which is designed to better regulate traffic and reduce traf fic hazards. No definite action was taken pending referral to the State Highway Commission. The Councilmen also devoted considerable time to regulations on the proposed free parking lot back of the stores on the east side of Broad Street. This plan calls for entrance and exits and will allow two-way traffic on Court Street from Queen Street to Water Street, with no park ing allowed on Court Street. iThe County Commissioners have j agreed for the town to police j anil regulate the parking lot. j The Councilmen considered] I placing a blinker light at the corner of Queen and Moseley Streets, scene of a number of j accidents, the latest occurring I last week when two trucks col j lided. | Town Attorney William S. Pri vott was authorized to instruct the United States Lumber Com pany to replace a railroad switch which was recently removed on the base property. Some consideration was again given to the widening of West Queen Street by the State High way Commission. Some objec tion has been registered against j , this project due to the necessity, jto interfere with some crepe! myrtle trees. A site for the fire station was again aired, with five proposed j sites presented by a committee I instructed to investigate sites. No action was taken due to the; ' general feeling that no money • should be spent for a new site; and the lack of being fully eon-j ! vinced that the station should be 1 moved from its present quarters, j Another matter to claim the attention of the Councilmen is ' parking of gas and oil trucks 'in the residential area at night. This practice was pointed out as very dangerous, so that action was taken which will require such type vehicles to be parked at the bulk plant areas. Town, Clerk W. B. Gardner re ported that a 90% inspection has been made of the new sewage disposal plant and that 'plans now are for having it in opera- THE CHOWAN HERALD. EPOTfCHL NOTH OKMiHA WH—PW.
