Senator Jordan Reports: WASHINGTON Property owners in at least some areas of North Carolina are going to be able to buy hurricane and flood damage protection this year under a federal in surance program set up ' through provisions of the 1969 Housing Act. The coverage will be avail able on an emergency basis until the end of 1971 while a permanent insurance pro gram is being drafted and prepared for implementation. Under this arrangement the policies will be sold, how ever, only in areas which meet federal requirements for land use and land man agement designed to cut down on future hurricane and flood losses. Eligibility will be determ ined by the Federal Insur ance Administration, Depart ment of Housing and Urban Development, on the basis of applications from city and county governments and a review of their land-manage ment proposals. Nine communities in the state have already submitted proposals to FIA under the emergency plan with Greens boro expected to get approval in early April as the first North Carolina participant in the program. .Other areas whose applica tions are in various stages of FIA review include Char lotte, Wrightsville Beach, Asheville, Buncombe County, New Hanover County, Mar .hall, Durham and Summit Beach. In certified areas, a prop erty owner will be able to insure a single family dwell ing up to a maximum of $17,500, with an additional maximum of $5,000 to cover its contents, and two to four family homes may be covered to a maximum of $30,000 with $5,000 in protection for the contents of each dwelling unit. The rate for private homes Horsie Carriers We all know about horseless carriages, but few, if any, have given thought to the “horsie carriers” before our time... These, of course, were the ferryboats which plied the vast sound waters and rivers between the water-Oriented towns of the Albemarle Area. They were performing their important communications task even before the Revolution. One of the best-known of these was Mackeys Ferry. It was established in 1736, succeeding Bell’s Ferry over Al bemarle Sound. It’s northern terminus was in Edenton. Oh, yes! It carried horseless carriages, too until operations ceased in 1938.

The insurance will be sold through local agents and brokers, acting for the Na tional Food Insurers Associa tion, a pool of insurance car riers formed to assist the government in carrying out the program. The emergency program was authorized as a tempor ary measure in light of the disastrous floods and hurri canes which hit any parts of the country, including sections of North Carolina last year, and is designed to provide protection for property own ers while the permanent pro gram is being readied.
