Worth Of $5,000 School Bonds
Warren County school bonds
In the amount of $400,000 have
been sold at an Interest rate
ranging from 3% to 6%, It was
revealed at a meeting of the
Board of County Commission
ers here Tuesday.
The bulk of the bonds will
bear the 3% Interest rate.
In a resolution passed by the
commissioners during the
afternoon session, it was re
solved that the bonds shall con
sist of 80 bonds of the denom
ination of $5,000 each, numb
ered from 1 to 80, Inclusive,
In order of their maturity, and
that the bonds shall bear in
terest as follows:
(1) The bonds numbered from

(2) the bonds numbered from 4

est; (3) the bonds numbered
from 7 to 48, inclusive, 4%
interest; (4) the bonds num
bered from 49 to 80, inclusive,
3 1/4% interest.
All members were present
at the morning session but Com
missioner John Wilson was ab
sent during the afternoon ses
sion when the bond resolution
"was unanimously adopted by all
the commissioners present.
During the morning session
W. G. Sykes of Roanoke Town
ship appeared before the Com
missioners askingthat his place
of business near the Northamp
ton County be given police pro
tection, particularly during the
weekend. He was asked to take
the matter up with Sheriff Jim
Hundley, who was In court at
the time.
Sheriff Hundley said later at
the afternoon session that his
deputies were usually in that
vicinity during the weekend and
that If Sykes would swear out
warrants against any trouble
makers that they would be
promptly arrested. It Is not j
possible to keep an officer at
each trouble spot In the county, j
Hundley said, but most of the ^
trouble In three recreation I
places had been ended by the |
owners swearing out warrants, I
but this procedure Is unusual. J
It Is about the only way to |
end trouble In these areas, he
added.
Sheriff Hundley also told the
commissioners that he had no
Intention at the present time
of dispensing with the services
of Deputy Sheriff Dorsey C apps,
under fire from a group of
Negroes who charged the deputy
with police brutality.
Tuesday normlng the board
studied a petition bearing the
names of 347 Negroes charging
! Capps with brutality and ask
ing for his dismissal. The pet
ition stated that "there Is much
concern over the acts of In- j
efficiency and acts of brutality
practiced by a certain person |
within the Sheriff's Department
which you head." In a second i
paragraph It named Deputy I
Sheriff Capps as the officer j
about which the complaint was
being made.
The complaint grew out of the
arrest several weeks ago of i
Harry Russell when Capps used j
a blackjack In the arrest. He
was tried In Recorder's Court
following the arrest and after
Russell had been hospitalized
and was found not guilty.
Hundley said that there ap
pears that Russell suffered no
permanent Injuries as a result
of the blow and there was no
proof that Capps used more 1
force than was necessary, j
Hundley said that he tried to
treat every citizen of the county
fairly and that he was not going
to be stampeded Into action by
any pressure groups either'
white or colored.
The petition was signed by a
number of persons more than
one time, and Hundley said that
he thought that there were act
ually about 325 persons signing
the petition.
TB Mobile Clinics May
Be Last Held Here
The FreeChest X-Ray clinics
sponsored by the Warren Coun
ty Health Department, the War
ren County TB and Health As
sociation and the State Board
of Health this fall will prob
ably be the last clinics of this
nature to be held In Warren
County, Dr. Robert F. Young
Health Officer, told the Board
of County Commissioners Mon
day, ?
Mobile units will be In the
county from Sept. 29 through
Oct. 24 to give free chest ex
aminations to all persons of the
county from 15 years old and
up. Dr. Young said that pre
vious appearance of the mo
bile units here had been very
effective.
The primary purpose of the ?
clinics, Dr. Young said. Is to
discover tuberculosis, and a
secondary purpose Is to dis
cover lung cancer. In addition j
abnormal conditions of the heart j
and other places In the chest
are often revealed.
Dr. Young said that State and
Federal funds for this type of
work have been greatly reduc
ed and In all probability no
more such clinics will be held
In Warren County. He said that
we are very fortunate to have
the clinics this year, and the
only reason we will have It Is
tha t another county withdrew

ABOUT THIS -QUESTION:'
"I often read about car
thefts but It never struck
home. Last night It was my
car. Unless It shows up, I'll
be out $2400. Is It true that
about $10 would have bought
theft, fire and glass break
age protection for a full
year?"
