H ■■ •■I LYNN NISBiT: Around Capitol Squab* DUD The mifch heralded ad ministration plan to reorganize the Department of Conservation and Development was put into the leg islative mill Friday with companion bills sent up by C&D Chairman Grady Rankin in the Senate and Alonzo Edwards in the House. What had been publicized as a bomb proved to be a dud. There may be ] further legislation designed to cor ; rect some of the obvious defici ■ encies in departmental organiba tion and operation. The bills of , sered do nothing except legislate [ out of office as of June 30 this year j all members of the present board. . The effect is to add two months i to the tenurp of five members whose terms would expire on April 30, cut two years off the' terms of five more members, and four years off an other five. On or before ; July 1 Governor Umstead will have au thority to appoint 15 members, in- 1 stead of appointing five on or be- j fore May 1. DISAPPOINTED There was frankly admitted disappointment among many legislators and others concerned with State development that the first bill did not approach the major problems of the depart ment. Personnel composition of the board is but it has been apparent for years that the real trouble was as much in statutory inadequacies as in questionable in- I efficiency of board members. j PROBLEMS Most of the fail- I ures of the department to meet the j needs of the State have stemmed 1 from the fact that the Director is not amenable to the Board, and the Board, and the Board does not; have to report to the Director, and the hodge-podge arrangement of division heads being in some degree I responsible to both the Director of ] the Budget. It was that vague and confusing situation which led to divorce of control of wild life re sources a few years ago and stim ulates the current movement for divorce of commercial fisheries. VITAL The functions allotted to the Department of Conservation and Development are vital to the progress of the State. Those fun ctions cannot be performed ad equately under the existing set-up. Complete change in membership of the board cannot meet the need, unless the new board’s duties are spelled out in more detail. , — Developments of the past five years have brought the position of trustees of the Con solidated University Into more pro minence than they had field for a long time before. For almost 20 years membership lon that board was coveted as an honor, without much responsibility. Necessity for selecting a president of the whole university, vice presidents and chancellors for two of the com ponent units, along with impact of demands for abandoning racial segregation policies in graduate schools, the greatest building ex pansion prbgram in history, and questions involving communism and loyalty pledges, have put more responsibility than honor upon the position of the trustee. IMPORTANCE Enhanced Im portance of the assignment was emphasized in the unfavorable re -1 action to Lieutenant Governor j Hodges’ proposal to drop the Sen i ate committee charged with hand ling the matter. Pressure of pub lic opinion forced him to yield that point and belatedly he named a committee of 16 headed by Sen ators Grady Rankin as chairman and J. W. Copeland as vice chair man. The committee deemed the job important enough to Justify a meeting much earlier In the session than usual to fix policy. : The House committee of 44, head ] ed by Rep. Ben Fountain as chalr j man and Wayland Floyd as Vice j chairman, but is expected to adopt | essentially the same rules of pro- I cedure. RULES The ground rules ln j elude provision for the committees I to nominate only one candidate for j each vacancy; to give due consider | ation to alumni of the several units j and non-alumni, as well as to | geographic place of residence with I a view to equitable, distribution of the trustees throughout the State. The rules did not include any ref erence to the controversial matter of the General Assembly* electing Its own members to the board of trustees. That has been an Issue tor many years, but without mon otonous regularity each Legisla ture picks several of Its members for the coveted positions. HISTORY— In 1943 Senator Ed Hudgins of Guilford, chairman of the trustees committee, fought valiantly for a rule that would pre vent selection by the Assembly of its own members, but he lost the battle. Before and since ttpt year less vigorous effort'has been made to eliminate the -personal politicking and trading among members for support without success. Two years ago at least half a dozen members of the Legislature were named trustees and two or three others were obviously offended because they were not chosen. OFFICE— There is growing sen timent to give a university trustee the status of a public official In or der to bring it up to equality in prestige with membership on the State Board of Education, and to make applicable the constitutional prohibition against double offiee holding. 'Principal opposition to that idea comes fromt members of THE DAILY RECORD .DUNN.

Club .and Junior Woman’s Club are put into action. Officials of the two efubs con ferred at the regular .dinner meet-1 ing of the Rotary Club at the : Community Center., Their topic was entry Into the]! 1953 Finer Carolina contest, a civ-4 ic improvement contest sponsored-! ■by the Carolina Power and Lights Company and offering substantial! cash prizes. List of objectives is now tenta-1 tive and will be revised. However, | at the top of the list, is the re-1 placement of entrance signs into! Lillington with new opes of the I same type. The signs on arrival •; proclaim Lillington as The Towns' of God Will and bear on the back the Scotch saying “Will Ye Nae Be Cornin’ A’n?” Other projects discussed for Im mediate work are the beautlftca ■ tion of a park at the rear of the Community Center, better trash and garbage disposal, and beauti fication on the boulevard on Front ' Street. ! Committee Named it > Henderson Steele, editor ,of the Harnett County News, heads the Rotary Club committee* in i charge of the civic improvement contest. A new steering commit tee to work with his group will be named on Tuesday night by. the Junior Woman’s Club. Represent ing the Juniors at the original conference were Mrs. Roger Haw ley, president, and also Mrs. Joe Bordeauk, Mrs. Selwynn O’Quinn, and Mrs. Norman Gossett. Steele tpld the group there was no reason why Ullington should not win a state prize this year. He said citizens last 1 year failed to push the project and urged prompt work bn all projects. Any suggestions for hew projects win be welcomed, by the committee; he reported. President Mac Norwood of the the General Assembly who desire to be on the board, and who Slant to honor citizens back home who may- already have a public office. Certainly the rule would deprive the board, of so very able men at the present, but it might elevate the status to the point where some of the double-duty folks would S«£ render the other offices In order to remain on the board. DISTINCTION There is a distinction without much differ ence in the functions of the State Board of Education in handling public schools and the Board of University Trustees in handling affairs of the topmost three in stitutions of higher education. The school board can promulgate' rules with effect of law; the trustees Some folks think they ought to have that authority. Prospects for granting such powers are dim so long as the board has a hun dred legislatively elected members and several ex-officio, many of whom hold other offices of autho rity, emolument and trust.
