Menzel, business man-'f" ager for the Kndllwood sanitary 1 strict, appeared before the town board at its regular session Wed nesday night to protest the board’s recent move in raising fire hy drant charges from $25 to $50 per year. In Knollwood, he said, this would bring the payment made to the Town of Southern Pines from $625 to $1,250 a year, which their budget (bas€(d on an 85-cent an nual tax) couldn’t stand. He said it was especially difficult since sewage charges had also recently gone up. The board responded by elimi nating the charge for five hy drants on the St. Joseph of the Pines property, which the sani tary district has been paying. “I believe there is no institution in Moore doing more for the people of the county, especially the col ored people, than St. Joseph’s,” said Commissioner Lloyd T. Clark in recommending the move. “We are benefiting by it and I think we should stand the expense of their hydrants.” In regard to any other reduc tion, Mayor • Page reminded Mr. Menzel that the arrangement be tween the Town and the sanitary ’istrict had been made by mutual agreement many years ago, and that costs were up all over. Mr. Menzel noted that the fire hydrant charges had gone up gradually from $450 annually in 1934; that the district pays $25 for each fire which the firemen at tend, and that in addition those suffering from a fire also usually make a donation. “The donations will probably continue, but we may have to cut out those $25 payments from the district, and I hate to see the fire men deprived of this,” Mr. Mepziel said. He noted that in 17 1-2 years Knollwood had had only one se rious fire and 13 minor ones, and that what had been paid in that time for hydrants and to the fire men brought the average cost of each fire up to $768 and some cents. He added, “We don’t think this is fair in view of the fact that no such charge is made for other places outside of town.” However, the board agreed that (1) the truck is not obigated to go new truck before long; and (4) the fees and donations for fire fighting don’t begin to cover the cost of equipment and replace ment. TOWN BOARD (Continued from page 1) of the trial period, said Mayor Page, ‘-if folks don’t like it, they can tell us so, and we can scrap it.” All agreed, though, with the oft- repeated “something must be done” regarding -Southern Pines' crowded traffic situation, and delegation was present from the Southern Pines Chamber of Com merce to present another view. As outlined by Harold McAllister, it? Yes, indeed. For we have a selfish interest. It is the same sort of selfish interest you have in wishing to see your community advance and prosper. Our com pany expects to prosper in direct proportion to the progress and de velopment of the area we serve; we have chosen this method as a means of helping you, helping us.
