Good Fishing Reported In The Roa noke at Jantesville Although there was a slack period late yesterday and early today, fishing in„the Roanoke at Jamesville has been extremely good so far this season, according to a report from the seine opera tors this morning. Herring have been taken up to as many as 1.500 or more in a single haul, which is rated good fishing for the time of the season. Catches of other fish have been limited, however, but the run of perch is picking up, and all indications point to a suc cessful season. It was reported that a farily sizable shad was taken from the Roanoke when the seine was dipped into the stream for the first time this year on Wednesday of last week. Only a few rock have been caught so Oil Men Oppose Higher Gas Tax Oil men from Martin, Bertie, Washington, and Tyrrell Counties went on record at a meeting here last night against any further in crease in the state gasoline tax. George H. Harrison, Chairman of the Martin County Petroleum Industries Committee, presided. Principal speakers were Walter J. Williamson of the Texas Com pany and member of the State Executive Committee; S. Gilmer Sparger, Executive Secretary of the North Carolina Petroleum In dustries Committee, and W. A Parker, Executive Secretary of the North Carolina Oil Jobbers Association. In his talk, Sparger stated, ‘The state and federal taxes on gaso line take more than $95,000,000 annually from North Carolina motorists.” He also pointed out, 'The state tax of 7 cents, inspec tion tax of one-quarter of a cent, and the federal tax of 2 cents add up to a total of 9 and one-quarter [cents on each gallon of gasoline— | which is equivalent to a 41 per Icent sales tax.” W. A Parker discussed the ov erall tax burden in this state, and asserted, "The gasoline tax is one place where we should hold the line. If the gasoline tax is increas ,. .. y.-.arfYi '• out, "this state will have the i questionable distinction of having the highest gasoline tax in the na tion. It will exceed the State of Virginia by two and one quarter cents per gallon, and South Caro lina by one and one-eighth cents per gallon, and can be expected to have an adverse effect on gaso line sales—particularly in the border counties.” Following the program, those present participated in a discus sion concerning the suggested gasoline tax increase and other anticipated legislation. There were more than 75 promi nent oil dealers from this district at the meeting and state execu tives who have been conducting "similar meetings over the entire State said it was one of the best ever held. The following dealers and sta tion operators from this immedi ate section were present for the discussion; Bruce Bateman and | Carlyle Hall, Plymouth; George and Darrell Taylor, Everetts; W. B. Rogerson, Carolton James, Dixie and Rodney Roberson, Ned Everett, Harvey Lewis Roberson, Bennie Griffin. Melton Ayers, all of Robersonville; O. W. Hamilton and W. E. Holliday of Jamesville; W. S. Purvis and James Carl Manning of Bethel; Floyd and W. C. Cahoon of Columbia. Athletic Group PaidDividend After battling tremendous odds uver a period of several years, the Martin County Athletic Associa tion directors in a meeting here ! last evening declared a ten per i cent dividend on the $8,650 out j standing stock. It is the first di > vidend declared by the association since it was formed to finance the purchase and installation of lights at the high school field here. Pividends were delayed when the stock subscription tailed of its goal, and the deficit had to be made up from yearly profits. Officers are of the opinion that j the project will liquidate itself if j the present schedule of operations I is maintained. All debts of the association have j been paid, it was announced far. Individual fishermen are visit ing the Roanoke and its tributar ies by the thousands, quite a few of the fishermen, making a sport out of it. are traveling from as far as 75 and 100 miles to get to the fishing grounds. The sports fishing is underway in the ' Roanoke, the creeks and numbers | of fishermen are going on down to j the canals feeding out of Lake Phelps in Washington County. Using nets, hardly larger than a barrel head, fishermen at this point were taking herring this week at the rate of four at a dip.

Powell, co-de fendants in the cases brought by Zollie Brinkley, James Shepherd and Willie B. Brinkley, minor, by a next friend. Brinkley is asking $2,050, Shepherd $3,075 and the minor is suing for 42,500. In the ease of Mrs. Edna M. Powell, administratrix of the estate of Cecil B. Powell, against the Carolina-Norfolk Truck Line, Mrs. Sarah E. Powell, administra trix of the J. A. Powell estate, is made a co-defendant by the re cent court order. The plaintiff in the case is asking damages in the sum of $55,100. Mrs. Edna M. Powell, adminis tratrix, was made party defend ant in the case brought by Mrs. Sarah E.
