Text of his letter follows: “In late January and again in February of this year, I formally | requested the Subcommittee on Appropriations for Public Works to include an additional $15,000 for Fiscal Year 1961 for the continuing survey study and re port of the Lockwood Folly River and Inlet, as well as the Shallotte River and Inlet. I am advised I that amount is sufficient to com plete the necessary surveys on these two important projects in our area. “On Friday, May 20, the full House Committee on Appropria tions approved this request. The House of Representatives passed the Public Works Appropriations Bill for FY 1961, which includes | the additional $15,000 item. If Senate approval for this appro priation is voted, I certainly hope Continued On Page 4 F. Herbert Swain Is Only Democratic Candidate In This Race Who Obtained Clear Majority Saturday SANFORD LEADER IN GOVERNOR’S RACE Frink Is Winner In Race For Representative; Clark Is Nominee For Regis ter Deeds; Bellamy For Judge F. Herbert Swain is the only man in the field of 16 candidates for the five nominations on the Democrat ticket to receive a clear majority in Saturday’s primary election, and a major controversy looms as a possibility in settling the other four places. This afternoon members of the Brunswick County Board of Elec tions voted to certify R. E. Bell amy, D. Bert Frink, Ira D. But ler and Ira L. Chadwich as high men, with Lowell B. Bennett, H. Coretz Ward, Leo Medlin and G. Kenney Lewis eligible to call for a run-off race. Bennett said this morning that regardless of the decision reach ed by the board of elections that he would not be a candidate in the second primary. Action of the board failed to heed the advice of Assistant At torney General Glenn Hooper, who in a Western-Union day letter to day advised that Swain, Bellamy and Butler should be certified as winners of nominations for their respective townships, with Frink and Ward as high men in their two townships. The letter said that R. Eugene Blair, second high man in Shallotte township, would have the right to call Frink; and that Parley Formyduval would have the right to call Ward in Wacca maw township. Whether the decisions of the election board will be contested before the State eelction board remains to be seen. It is under stood that Hooper is the attor ney for the State board. The commissioners received the following vote: Swain, 2006; R. E. Bellamy, 1815; Frink, 1746; But ler, 1735; Chadwick, 1535; Ben nett, 1430; Ward, 1191; Medlin, 1165; Lewis, 1075; Blair, 978; Formyduval, 971; Ed Ganey, 958; Otho Bellamy, 822; P. E. Allen, 485; Robert Jones, 479; Leoni L. Tripp, 468. 1 The biggest vote-getter on the county ticket was S. Bunn Frink, who piled up 3614 votes to 756 for J. Worth Stanley for Repre sentative. Earl Bellamy was sec ond high man in the county race, with a vote of 2855 against 1659 for Joe C. Stanaland in their con test for the nomination as Judge of Recorder’s court. Durwood Clark had 2472 votes for Register of Deeds to defeat H. G. Ratcliffe, who polled 2030. In the race for the two highest places for preferential vote for member of the board of education the high man was Howard WTil liamson, who had 2351 votes to 1222 for Sam J. Corbett, Sr., for Leland School District. In the race for member from Waccamaw School District Corbett Coleman polled 2351 votes to 1217 for Gar land Long.
