Rodney Prescott of Morehead City was secretary of the meeting. Chairman Lewis and Secre tary Prescott reported as to the spec ial committee's trip to Raleigh to see Governor Ehringhaus on Tuesday a wetk ago. The Governor assured the delegation of his interest in get ting better prices for fish and of his readiness to cooperate. He promised to see Mrs. Thos. O'Berry State Di rector of the Federal Emergency Re lief and see if she could use any fish for relief purposes. He also agreed to write a letter to the wholesale fish dealers in North Carolina asking them to try to pay better prices for fish. It was stated by the Governor that the average income for fisher men in the State for 1933 was only $169. A plan for perfecting a fisher men's organization was read to the meeting by Secretary Prescott. Af ter some discussion a motion offered by L. II. Hardy fo Merrimon to ap prove the plan was put and carried. Mr. Hardy also stated that he is a long haul fi she mum but if necessary to raise prices of fish that long haul ing be stopped he for one was willing to stop. Duffy Day of Cedar Island also took part in the discussion Cap. tain John A. Nelson suggested that too many truckers are hauling fish in trucks that are not suitable for the purpose. The tentative plan as adopted calls for communities in which fishing is the major enterprise to elect repre sentatives who will compose the Car teret county committee which will name a committeeman to meet with representatives of other counties, discuss problems of the industry, and plan a program for presentation to the board of conservation and devel opment or to the general assembly, if necessary. Representatives will serve for one year, and the first election will probably be held in De cember. If the movement as begun in Car teret can be carried into other coun ties as anticipated, the association will be known as the Eastern Caroli na Fishermans Association.

A HOME NEWSPAPER The Beaufort Newt doe not pretend to carry the news of the world. In its field which is main ly Carteret county it doe un dertake to keep abreast of what is happening. In last week's issue of this newspaper, which was about an average, there appeared the names of 345 Carteret county folks. Of course each name was connected with some item of news. In the same issue of the News there were about 30 col umns of reading matter which would average close to 1000 words to the column. In a year's time the reading matter print ed in the News would equal a bout 16 good sized books. Persons who are interested in Carteret county events would do well to read the Beaufort News and of course a good nany do. " In his recent radio address to the country," Mr. Jones states.

It is planned to cook the first batch of crabs Monday afternoon. survey of the situation reveals the following facts: "The banks of North Carolina have 18 per cent of their deposits invest ed in United States securities, ap proximately 12 per cent in State of North Carolina bonds and notes, and also hold a considerable amount of local municipal and county bonds and notes. In all, the banks of our State are investing a total of ap proximately one-third of their de posits in Government obligations, while at the same time they are ex tending credit to business and indus try in this State to a total of ap proximately $100,000,000.

STATE DEBT HAS GROWN It's a far cry fromthe North Car olina of Today, State Treasurer Charles M. Johnson finds. The Treas urer's report of 1901 shows the to- new Government issues, while in the same period British banks reduc- ! ed their holdings of government j bonds. Furthermore, the British bond conversion was made after Great Bri tain had balanced its budget and had made an end of huge governmental expenditures, while United States bank support of government financ ing has been given at a time when the Government is still committed to huge expenditures and an unbalanc ed budget, accompanied by threats of inflation. "In light of these facts there could hardly be any inference that Ameri can banks, and particularly banks in North Carolina, are failing to sup port the government's fiscal program."
