on the same day the U. S. Senate
had voted 72 to 21 for a pay raise
for postmasters. “That bill,” he
said, “incorporates the diligent ef

committee.”
Eure was introduced by Harnett
Senator Robert Morgan, brother of
Mrs. Byrd, as "a man with a warm
and sincere interest in his State.’’
“People today want more atten
tion and more service,” Eure told
the federal employees. “They ex

-watchword of everyone in govern
ment, you will wake up one day
and find yourselves gone and some
one else therewho will render that
service.”
Eure noted that professional as

by leaps and bounds because people
have found that cooperative efforts"
in solving "their problems brings re

upon government officials for more
service have grown over the years,”
Eure said, “but the percentage of
increase stands to gain in the fu
ture. There are no new Post Offices
spring up,” he said, “In fact, rumor
is that many are being closed.
Post Offices seem to be in the same
category with colleges. When have
you heard of a new college? They
just have to do more with what
they have. Your agency has grown
larger by necessity and new duties
and more demands for service are
: certain in the future,” he predicted.
The secretary of state pointed
, out that North Carolina now has
a population of about three and a
' quarter million people. Every 40

“And while there are no new
post offices, there will be new sub
stations and new duties. It is only
fitting that you make demands for
reimbursement in keeping with the
calls made upon those in govern
ment service.’’
Characterizing government as the
biggest business there is today, be
cause it touches every life, Eure
said, "We ought to nurture, support
and look after our government. Our
private affairs would be in sad
shape if we spent as little thought
on them as we do on our govern
ment.
CITES COMPLACENCE
He added that too frequently the
average man never thinks of his
government unti he personally is
affected, or when a foreign aggres
sor strikes.
“If we were in danger from a
foreign power, our state would rise
as one man to .protect our way of
life. But our trouble is that we do
not have enough people living un
der the daily protection of our gov
ernment who have the proper love
and respect fqr our government.”
Here the visiting speaker paused
to point out that only a small per
centage of the State’s 90,000 boys
and girls in school have any knowl
edge of the State flag, the meaning
of the dates on the flag or the
State song. “If we could inculcate
respect and love for the 'State’s
song and flag, Communism would
knock within and without and not
get in. We are not doing enough
of this type of teaching.”
“At an individual in the service
of your government,” he concluded,
“it is up to you to encourage in
every dealing with the public the
proper appreciation of the genuine
service government plays in the
lives of all of our citizens. In this
way you will be doing your share
to develop a keener appreciation
and respect for our government.”
Women of the Bunnlevel Presby
terian Church served a three-course
fried chicken dinner and tables
were decorated with daffodils and
other spring flowers. Visitors were
welcomed by the Rev. Gill Clary,
pastor of the church, and the Rev.
Russell Hilliard, pastor of Friend

vocation. Musical selections were
rendered by Mrs. Russell Hilliard,
