HON. CHARLES U.
HARRISON TO
SPEAKTHURSDAY
Will Speak on Port and
Water Transportation
Question
Hon. Charles U. Harris of Raleigh
will speak -«n the Port and Water
Transportation question on Ttmnrfay
night, October 9th, the place to be
announced later. Mr. Harris is a plead
ing speaker and will present the situ
ation as it exists hi North Carolina
and oar great need for water transpor
tation and port terminals.
The question that he will discus* is
one of the greatest importance that
has come before the people in year*
and It particularly concerns every
business man in Eastern Carolina,
whether h be the largest manufacturer
or the smallest farmer.
For the benefit o four owntelves. we
urge our people of Williamston and
community around to come to hear
Mr. Harris and find odt why it is that
we are so poor when we cannot pick
up a paper without seeing that North
Carolina leails in the producioa of
this and of that and she stands high
in this and that, and yet many of b
are not blessed with enough to call
a ilecent living.
Township Roundaires
Changed By Board
NORTH SIDE OF CONOHO (REEK
ADDED TO HAMILTON
TOWNSHIP
That portion of Poplar Paint which
is on the north side of Ctaaks creek
was added to Hamilton township
•t a meeting of the County Bourd of
Commissioner* yesterday. The tax
payers of this portion of the town
ship were in favor of annexing i'
to Hamilton so that its rauk would
be worked by a fund ice cited through
taxation.
Those who put the thing aaw>
■ma puplt who did not live in the
community and people who did not
have to contribute wjliki to the up
keep of the reads but they wanted
better roads naming by their property
even if they had to pay to
get them and as Poplar Point does
not have a road tax. they annexed to
Hamilton. Poplar Point new being the
only township in the county that does
not have a road tax.
