Last Saturday Congressman Barden ad dressed his friends down on Harkers Island. On Tuesday night here in Beau fort, Senator Robert R. Reynolds made a series of speeches here. First he addressed the Rotary clubs of Beaufort and Morehead City and their Rotary Anns on International Peace. Fifteen minutes after he made that interesting talk he was intro duced again to a political gathering in the courthouse. The courthouse was almost full, an exceptionally large crowd considering such compe tition as the local Legion Fair. HU political speech was a tegular Roose velt fireside chat and it seemed to please his audience. l After the poltical speech he went direct to the fairgrounds, shook hands witlf several hundred people, wai introduced to Suzie the trained chimpanzee, Speed and Hazel Mer rill, motorcycle trick riders and then he did a bit of introducing him (Contniued on page eight) t Fishing And ALL OUTDOORS By AYCOCK BROWN CERO FISHING IN nearby water has been good during t.e past few days. Several catches have been made by local or visiting angleri. One of the best catches made recent ly perhaps, was that of J. E. Miller and party of Greensboro, landing 338 Spanish mackerel, 25 trout and two cero. The cero weighed up to 18 pounds. This party was fishing with Capt. George Lewis. ON ANOTHER DAY aboard tho Pal with Capt. Charlie Bennett of Morehead City, Cole Musser and Alan Taft of Pinehurst and Hermon Carrow of Beaufort and Washington landed two kingfish and 80 mackerel. Dozens of other people have been to the coast fishing since October began and the cero have started run ning.

The quotation above the three pho tos was made by Congressman Bar den who was a guest, of honor at a luncheon presented by N. C. Fisher ies in observance of their first year's actitivities. That quotation if car ried out to the letter would solve the controversies which have been prev alent along the coast during the past year between the Fisheries organiza WEEK OF COURT STARTS MONDAY Judge N. A. Sinclair of Fayette ville Will Preside The October term of Superior court will get underway here Mon day for a one week session. Judge N. A. Sinclair of Fayetteville will be the presiding jurist. There are no cases of great impor tance on the docket, said an attor ney today who is close to local court activities. The first three days will be devot ed to criminal actions while the lat ter part of the week will take care of a number of civil cases, including minor suits of all kinds, a few di vorce proceedings perhaps, but noth ing of great importance. Road To Marshallberg Is Almost Completed The road leading from Smyrna to Marshallberg will be completed by next Thursday, if good weather pre vails, according to William P. Brown, of the Brown Construction Company of Lexington, who was here this week The route is slightly over three miles in length and is being paved with a superior grade of asphalt. When completed conditions in that area will be much better, for the traveling pub lic. Heretofore during bod weather the route at times was practically im passable. LEGION FAIR PRIZES As previously announced in this newspaper, Ihe three priz es, bicycle, a Zenith Radio and a Genera! Electric cook stove will be presented to three holders of lucky ticket stubs on Saturday night' on the fair rounds at 10 o'clock. The drawing for a lucky number will be under the auspices of Aycock Brown, editor of this newspaper and all but Legion-' naires and Brown will be eligi ble to win. N. C Fisheries, Inc., Potter's Seafood Co, tion and the independent dealers. In the top photo is N. C. Fisheriei, Inc., managed by John Sikes, in the lower right hand picture, . president of the cooperative organization with headquarters in Morehead City anii branch plants at Southport, Belhav en and Manteo. Last Saturday N. C. Fisheries shipped a solid refrigerator car-load of fillet3 by rail to Cedar Triplet Fund Falls Short of Sum Needed The Beaufort News' sponsor ed Garner Triplet Fund had reached a total of only $91.50 as we go to press today and that amount is far below the ac tual cost of hospitalization dur ing the past month in Potters Emergency Hospital here. Those who have contributed to the wel fare of these babie3, whose lives were saved when they were brought to the hospital, have given freely and in most cases very generously, but outside help from the State's mother's aid division, the county wel fare deparment or federal a gencie3 have not come forth as yet, and as a result the babies might have to be returned to their home in the Newport sec tion this week. It would be far better if the babies which were far below normal weight at birth, could remain in the hos pital for a few more weeks. Contributions this week total ed only $12. The YPSL of St. Paul's church gave $10 and the Lina Bumpass Bible Cless an other $2, in' addition to their previous donation. SCHOOL OFFICIALS ON BUSINESS TRIP Confer With WPA, State School And Textbook Of ficials on Trip to Raleigh A worth-while trip to Raleigh Thursday and Friday of last week is reported by Superintendent J. G Allen in which several items of val ue were accomplished, in addition to many matters of lesser importance. A conference with T. Gates Mat thews, WPA District Engineer in New Bern on Thursday morning, is believed to have resulted in a plan whereby the delivery of materials for the Atlantic and Newport gym nasium projects can be. greatly. ex pedited so that work may soon begin in full swing and continue without delay.

In the lower left hand photo is an in dependent dealer's market located in Beaufort, owned and operated by William Potter, a member of a fam ily that has been engaged in the fish business here for nearly a half century. MOREHEAD MADE PORT OF ENTRY But Beaufort Retails Distinc tion Held 214 Years Announcement was made in Wash ington'a few days ago that Morehead City where the two million dollar port project was recently completed will be designated as a port of entry. Beaufort which has held the dis tinction of being a port of entry since 1722, will retain that title and keep her deputy collector of custom office. No announcement has yet been made regarding the possible construe tion of a customs building in More head City. As the demand for such a building increases, one will prob ably be built. Beaufort'3 port of en try headquarters will be moved into the new Federal building when com pleted. An appropriation of fU3, 000 secured by Congressman Graham A. Barden recently assures Beauf ort of a public building for which pre liminary surveys lave already been made. Atlantic Project Is Discussed In Raleigh Rep. Graham A. Barden said yes terday he had been informed that a representative of the army engineei corps will confer with State WPA authorities today in Raleigh on dredging a channel from Atlantic to the Inland waterway. After conference, the Congress man said, he believed he would bo in formed whether or not the army en gineers will do the dredging. If not it will be contracted to a private concern. Funds were allotted recently by the WPA for digging the channel. MARRIAGE LICENSES Bonner Willis and Cleo Hancock, Harkers Island.

PRICE 5c SINGLE COPY Thousands Carteret's Fair Here READY TO MAKE SALT DELIVERIES THROUGH M. CITY PORT SOON "By the end of this month I will be prepared to make deliv ery to you on Salt, through your. Stat Port, Morehead City in any quantity," wrote Charles R. Allen, Charleston to the Ramsey Grocery company here this week. "This is the first cargo of salt, in fact the first cargo of any material that has been shipped to and through your new port terminal at Morehead City," it was stated. The Char leston broker was referring to tho Norgeigiaa freighter Sam manger's cargo, which is duo to arrive hero within the next few days. It wilt be the first for eign vesael to enter the port terminal and will probably be the fist to discharge a cargo there. There is a possiblity that a cargo of 250 tons, (10,000 cases) of beer will reach the terminal before the arrival of the much heralded salt ship. Tba beer is coming from New York by water, but it is not yet known whether the vessel bringing same will be routed coastwise or through the inland waters. In Mr. Allen's letter he said that he guaranteed to put North Carolina jobbers on a competitive basis with the Vir ginia and South Carolina job bers. It will be supplied in SO and 25 pound bags of fine, med ium ground Alum grade and course ice cream and ice plant salt. Suzie Meets Senator . .SISa. 4- 6 - - And Photo Was Made Suzie, the splendidly trained chim panzee owned by Leo Can r had the pleasure and honor of meeting Sen Senator Bob Reynolds on Tuesday night when he visited the American Legion Fair in Beaufort. In no tinu at all they were holding hands and were fast friends. Then a flashlight photo was made of tho couple by a Beaufort News cameraman. Suzie is an ex-movie star and she has far more intelligence along csitain lines than some human beings. If you visit the fair, and you should, you too will meet Suzie.
