Warren County awoke
Tuesday morning to dis
cover its first White
Christmas in more than a
decade. Not snow, but a
Monday night sleet storm
bleached the countryside,
producing the seasonal
dream. The above scene,
taken two miles south of
Warrenton, is typical of
Christmas morning in rural
Warren County.
During summer months
a favorite swimming and
fishing spot, the falls of
Hamme's millpond south
of Warrenton created a
winter scene Christmas
Day. ;

Sewage Disposal
Cause Of Criticism
'Lagoon'
Defended
By Mayor
The lagoon sewage treat
ment has been fully Investi
gated by town officials.
Mayor Graham P. Grissom
said Thursday following the
receipt of a copy of a letter
from Charles and Alex Kat
zenstein condemning such a
system for the town of Nor
lina.
Grissom said that he did
not doubt the sincerity of the
Katzensteins, but that he
feels that they were dealing
with remote possibilities and
not realities as borne out by
the experience of other mu
nicipalities with this form of
sewage disposal.
Supporting his contention
that the proposed lagoon sys
tem would be proper for Nor
lina, Grissom said that the
lagoon treatment has been
approved by the State De
partment of Health; approved
by the State Stream Sanitary
Committee; and approved by
the United States Public
Health Service which will pay
i 50% of the cost of the treat
ment lagoon. In addition, he
| said, that towns using this
j type of treatment have been
contacted and report that
I over a period of several years
| they have been satisfactory,
and that many towns of
j North Carolina are now
planning to use this treat
ment system.
Grissom said that NorUm
town officials do not claim
to be experts in the field of
engineering, and realizing
| this they have sought the ad
vice of engineers and public
j health officials and relied on
the experience of other
towns.
No system, lagoon or the
most modern disposal system
will work satisfactorily if neg
lected, Grissom said, adding

Brothers
Critical
Of Plan
A former Norlina resident
and his brother, both prop
ery owners in Norlina, have
taken issue with Dr. Burns
Jones of the State Health
Department, County Sanitar
ian Howard Stultz and offic
ials of the Town of Norlina
over the use of a lagoon type
sewage disposal plant for the
proposed sewage system of
Norlina.
Alex and Charles Katzen
stein in a letter to the edi
tor this week allege that the
lagoon-type system is unsat
isfactory, could be dangerous
to health, could provide a
bad odor, and that it should
not be used.
In the letter written by
Alex Katzenstein, now of
Greensboro, and signed by
him and his brother, Charles
Katzenstein of Chapel Hill,
the Katzensteins quote figures
gathered ov^r a period of
time, ask for a public hew
ing in Norlina, and in the
event that a treatment plant
can not be provided, ask the
citizens of Norlina to defeat
the bond issue of January 8.
The letter in full follows:
