Lions Complete Another Step In Mail Delivery Members of the Franklin Uons Club this week completed the second step in their project to obtain house mail delivery lor the town. This was measuring 25-foot lots on all streets within the corporate limits and assigning numbers to each. Next step will be a sale of numbers to residences and busi ness houses. The fourth, and final, step for the club will be making application for house delivery with the U. S. Post Of fice Department. Plans for the sale of num bers will be announced as soon as the lots and numbers are transferred to a master map, according to J. C. Crisp, chair man of the club's civic improve ment committee, which had charge of the latest step. Proceeds of the sale are al ready earmarked for the club's ?work with the blind. Serving on Mr. Crisp's com mittee are B. L. McGlamery,- ? Claude Bolton, B. B, Scott, John Davis, and John L. Crawford.

In selecting the gymnasium for exhibits and displays, it was pointed out that the playing floor would not , be used. The balcony areas and dressing rooms will afford ample room, it was said. When the outgoing treasurer, W. W. Sloan, reported $1,357.20 on hand from last year's event, a motion was passed to make premium awards. The publish ing of a fair catalogue again will be the main source of rev enue. Commitee appointments are to be made by the new officers at an early date. Wayne Proffitt, president of the local agricultural council, presided at the meeting. No. 1 Continued From Editorial Page terposition resolutions cannot as yet be assessed. But, in an election year, it is likely to be considerable. Virginia Pattern Both the almost unanimous ap proval and the moderate phrasing of the Virginia interposition reso lution voted this month insure that it will be a model for those Southern States that have not yet acted. Of the total of 17 States where compulsory segregation was in effect when the Supreme Court ruled against it, six have been moving cautiously toward integra tion, three have taken no action one way or the other and seven (besides Virginia ) are following, or propose to follow, the Old Dominion's lead. There is no question that the movement will retard intergration throughout the entire South. Indeed, that is its clear objective. However one reacts to the pros pect, the Virginia resolution is FRANKLIN, N. 0. Phone 1>1 Week Beginning April 12 SCHEDULE OF SHOWS Week Days ? 7 and 9 p. m. Saturdays ? 1 p. m.

It expresses the certainly reasonable doubt that the 14th amendment ever contemplated compulsory In tegration. It points out that "the very Congress which proposed tha 14th amendment (or ratification established separate schools in the District of Columbia." It further notes fciat Tor nearly 90 years the Supreme Court con sistently upheld the constitutional ity of "separate but substantially equal" schools and thereby Implies that the single contrary opinion, of May 17, 1954, may well have been mistaken. Then it concludes that the only proper way to re solve the issue is to put it to the test of constitutional amend ment. The fact that such an amendment can be blocked by the negative action of 13 States ? one more than a quarter of this total ? is not emphasized. De Tocqueville, were he alive to day, would certainly be fascinated by this deloping issue of inter position. Its reincarnation, for the first time since the Civil War, will test the validity of his pre diction. SHORTY MASON'S Week-End Specials 1 Lb. Pure PORK SAUSAGE . . 25c 4 Lb. Pure * LARD 59c 3 Lb.
