The Roanoke Beacon * * * * * » » and Washington County News ★★★★★★★ VOLUME XLIX NUMBER 46 Plymouth, Washington County, ISorth Carolina, Friiluy, November 18. 1088 A home newspaper dedicated to the service of Washington County and its 12,000 people. ESTABLISHED 1889 Town opics The C. C. Lang & Son pickle plant here has not received contracts from headquarters for next season’s cu cumber acreage, according to Mana ger P. H. Roberts, who said that as soon as something definite was re ceived from his company he would advise the growers as a number have inquired about the contracts. “We have now about 42 boys en rolled in our course, and this is a few more than usual. The boys are man ifesting much interest and are mak ing good progress,” said C. H. Floyd, vocational agriculture instructor in the Roper High School, this week. An estimate has been made that not over 40 bales of cotton had been ginned in Washington Coun ty this year, according to R. W. Johnston, who keeps up with this information. Many growers say a wet season at the time the bolls were being formed caused an abundance of boll weevils which destroyed most of what crop there was. Joe Arps and Clayton House at tended a Chevrolet dealers’ and sales mens meeting in Greenville on a re cent night. When they started home they found that some person had cut one of their tires with a knife, although neither could hazard a guess as to why it was done. Dr. A. Papineau attended the fall meeting of the Second District Medi cal Society at Kinston Wednesday night and the post-graduate course in medicine at Greenville Thursday night. “A community does not know when it will be visited by disas ter, and so everyone should con tribute liberally to the Red Cross,” said J. R. Manning, who is soliciting funds for this worthy organization. Deputy Marshall White Wright, of Hertford, was in Plymouth Tuesday on business. It was his information that Judge I. M. Meekins would pre side over the term of Federal Court beginning December 5 in Elizabeth City. Mr. Wright was at one time sheriff of Perquimans County. Clyde McCallum and C. E. Ayers, oil dealers, were being ifrged this week to attend a dinner being held in Raleigh Thursday by the petro leum dealers' organization to discuss matters of interest to their business. “We are going to start putting up our Christmas decorations the first of December so that by the secohd week the work wi# be completed and the town will pre sent an attractive appearance,” said Chief of Police P. W. Brown today. There will be some minor improvements made in the dec orations this year. Whether it is due to the new bridge or not, that there is a large number of travelers coming through here can be attested by the calls that are made for post cards showing views of Plymouth, according to H. A. Liver man. -® State Senator Corey Speaks at Armistice Day Program Here —®— Praises Work of American Legion in Securing Aid For Disabled Men -® “The American Legion has un wound the official red tape and se cured compensation for thousands of deserving disabled men,” said State Senator Arthur Corey, of Greenville, to the large crowd that gathered in the theatre here to near his Armis tice Day speech delivered to his com rades of the World War and others who attended the program last Fri day. "Through the American Legion’s efforts, thousands of others have been placed in government hospital, a $5,000,000 endowment fund was raised in 1925, the income from which takes care of war orphans and dis abled veterans; procured legislation providing that children of men who died in the service should receive free tuition and other help at state-sup ported educational institutions. “Through the American Legion’s efforts, junior baseball has been pro moted that has reached 300,000 boys; it has sponsored scout troops; and, remembering the maelstrom of war, the Legion is making every effort to prevent a repetition of this horrible tragedy. "Armistice Day is a peace day to be celebrated. But instead of a world at peace, we live in a world of greed, suspicion and hate. Military engines of destruction are infinitely more deadly than ever before in peace time. Competent observers see no prospect for continued peace unless the mind of humanity changes. “No one who knows anything about war wants it, but hellish as it is, no true American prefers dishonor to it. And the Legion rightly insists that national defense should be kept up to the national defense act,” conclud ed the speaker. The annual parade was probably the largest and longest ever to be held here in the recent observances of Armistice Day, sponsored by the James E. Jethro Post of the Ameri can Legion. The Cubs, Boy Souts, school children, Legionnaires, sons of the Legionnaires, Red Cross nurses, and others, totaling about 650, par ticipated, as the Plymouth High School band led with music. The Legionnaires enjoyed a barbe cue dinner at the Legion Hall at the jioon hour. Town Tax Rate Fixed At $2 for Current Year A tax rate of $2—the same as for last year—will be required to raise the total of $37,244.88 necessary to meet expenses for operation of the various departmetns of the town government and meet bond interest and retirement requirements for the current fiscal year, according to the 1938-39 budget approved by the Town Council in session Monday night. Based on the total tax valuation of $1,234,589. a tax levy of $1.20 on the $100 of valuation, together with the poll and privilege taxes and reve nue from msicellaneous sources, will be required to raise the $16,932.10 ap propriated in the budget for admin istrative, street, police and fire de partment expenses. On the same valuation a levy of 80 cents, together with an estimated profit of $4,236 from the water de partment revenues, will be required to raise the total of $13,312.78 required for bond interest and retirement pay ments, as well as to set aside $3,780 for the sinking fund to take care of outstanding bonds as they come due. The water department is very prof itable to the town. The total esti mated revenue from this source is $7,000 for the current year. Oper ating expense is estimated at $2,574, leaving a profit of $4,236, which is set up to the credit of the bond and interest fund. The total tax valuation of $1,134. 689 represents an increase of approx imately $97,000 over the 1937 tax list ings. Peanut Crop Begins Moving To Market f EARLY PAPER v/ Correspondents of the Beacon are notified that all material for next week's issue must be in the office Monday, as the paper will be printed and mailed Tuesday so that merchants will have an opportunity to get their Thanks giving message and values to the public. Those who have notices or oth er copy are urged to have it in the office not later than Tues day morning. The Beacon office will be closed Thursday for ob servance of the Thanksgiving holiday. Several Delegations To Oppose Request For Bus Franchise Plymouth, Elizabeth City and Columbia Favor Norfolk Southern Proposals Prom Plymouth and several sur rounding towns will go delegations to Raleigh Tuesday, asking the Utilities Commission to reject the application for a franchise made by the Edenton Mackeys Ferry Bus Company to op erate a bus line between Columbia and Edenton, on the grounds that it will be a duplication of the service proposed to be rendered by the Nor folk Southern Bus Corporation, which has also an application pending for a franchise to operate a bus line from near Bath by way of Highway No. 97, Plymouth, the new bridge, and on into Elizabeth City and Norfolk. The delegation from Plymouth is expected to present resolutions from the Lions Club, Town Council and Merchants Association. It has been said that there would be represen tatives from Elizabeth Ctiy, Colum bia and Plymouth opposing the ap plication for the new franchise. Civic leaders of the towns oppos ing the franchise argue that the Norfolk Southern has provided ade quate service and equipment between Columbia and Williamston and has secured interstate rights between Edenton and Plymouth and Wash ington, via the Albemarle Sound bridge and is asking for intra-state rights over the same routing. Proponents of the Norfolk Southern proposals contend the company will furnish, in connection with their pres ent services, all that is required, with suitable through connections and that an additional carrier over these routes will likely result in a curtail ment of the service now rendered by the present carrier. The Edenton-Mackeys Perry Bus Company asks for the franchise from Swan Quarter through Hyde to Co lumbia and then over the bridge in to Edenton and on into Suffolk. The Norfolk Southern has agreed that they will add this service in the fu ture, when the roads are improved, if there is a demand for such serv Minstrel Show at Plymouth Theatre Saturday Midnight -$ An all-colored minstrel, playing as the Florida Blossoms, will give a midnight ramble” show at thfc Plym outh Theatre Saturday night at 11 p. m. This is the first colored minstrel show to play on the stage of the the atre here, and the management be lieves that as this is a change a large crowd will attend. No children will be admitted. -- Advises Farmers To Listen To Agronomists’ Program - Farmers of Washington County are urged by County Agent W. V. Hays to tune in their radio dials to WPTF at Raleigh on Saturday at 1:45 p. m„ at which time the agronomy division at State College will present a pro gram. A feature of the program will be a speech by Henry A. Scott, of Haw River, who will tell what crop rota tion has done for his farm during the last 12 years, according to Mr. Hays. Many Being Bought By Representatives Of Private Concerns —®— First Load Delivered at Gov ernment Warehouse Here Last Monday Washington County peanuts are beginning to move, but not many of them are destined for the Peanut Stabilization Cooperative's warehouse here so far, as most of them which have been prepared for sale have been sold on the open market to cleaners. The first load to be stored with the government warehouse here was brought in Monday by E. J. Spruill from his home at the Sound Side, in Skinnersville Township, and was composed of 600 bags. Others were expected to make deliveries during the week. It has been reported that Jim Gay lord, at Roper, has purchased 3,300 bags for an Edenton concern and that many of the other buyers for private companies have been very active in buying the present crop for the cleaners. The peanut purchasing organiza tions representing the cleaners cast about this season and found that a shortage of peanuts from the old crop existed and then learned there was a short crop, so they entered the market actively. The close grading of the govern ment warehousemen has resulted in what growers say is a smaller price than they can get for the crop by selling to the representatives of the cleaners, which is the reason most of the crop marketed so far has been through the regular peanut market channels. One grower said his crop, if graded by government standards, would have brought him only 3 cents a pound when delivered at a stabilization warehouse, but that he sold to a buy er on the open market at 3 1-4 cents a pound. Many of the buyers are making their purchases in the field, most of the time at the thresher, and hav ing the peanuts hauled directly to their own warehouses. —————« Recorder’s Court Session Tuesday -<s»> A criminal and a civil case may grow out of the issuance of a war rant last week by M. L. Bowen against L. H. Lucas, charging that Mr. Lucas turned his hogs into a soybean field cultivated by Mr. Bowen before the soybeans could be harvested and di vided. The case was called in re corder's court Tuesday, but was con tinued until next Tuesday on account of the illness of Mr. Lucas. A jury will probably be demanded. Robert Pettiford, 23, colored, had his case dismissed when he was ar raigned on a charge of assaulting his wife with a knife. Alexander James, 23, colored, was sentenced to 12 months on the roads, suspended upon payment of the costs and good behavior for two years, on a charge of transporting illicit liquor. -® Scout Executive To Be Here Tuesday A busy day is in prospect for J. J. Sigwald, of Wilson, scout executive, when he comes here Tuesday, ac cording to Dr. A. Papineau, district chairman. Mr. Sigwald will play archery golf in the morning on the country club course against Ellis Maples, pro, and will then visit and meet the chair man of the district committees. At 2:30 in the afternoon he will conduct a chapel program in the Plymouth colored school, at which time efforts will be made to start a colored troop in Plymouth. Princi pal W. H. Berry may be the scout master and has arranged for the chapel program. Mr. Sigwald and his assistant, George Thomas, will also be at the Roper school at night, and they urge that a large crowd of scouts and par ents be present, as an intresting pro gram is planned.

The slogans are sought for adver tising purposes, and the awards will be made by three impartial judges. Agent Cites Benefits Under Farm Program Urges (Cooperation Of Business People In Presenting Facts Loss of Government’s Lend ing Facilities Would Be Serious Blow -® In his “Farm Notes’’ column this week. County Agent W. V. Hays ad dresses a plea for the cooperation of all business people, bankers, and or ganizations of various kinds in pre senting to the farmers of the county the meaning of the cotton and to bacco control referendum on Decem ber 10. Pointing out that coercion is not sought, and admitting that the program is not a perfect one, Mr."' Hays nevertheless points out some of the more obvious advantages which have accrued to the farmers since the program was undertaken, and asks that these facts and figures be given consideration, not only by the farmers themselves, but by the bus iness people of this section who are largely dependent upon the returns from farming enterprises. His com plete statement follows: “Many of our farmers do not real ize what the farm program means, We wish to ask the cooperation of our business men, bankers, organiza tions and institutions, in getting to our farmers the meaning of the ref erendum on December 10. “The cash income from all crops, livestock and products in North Car olina amounted to approximately $98,000,000 in 1932. After five years under the program, all crops sold in 1937 for approximately $270,500,000. “The cotton adjustment payment on less than one-half the cotton pro duced in Washington County last year amounted to more than three times as much as our entire crop will sell for in 1938. •'I firmly believe that were it not for our farm program, peanuts would not sell for more than 2 cents per pound. "We are told by the land bank com missioners that Federal Land Bank loans are now being liquidated faster than new ones are being made. Also that farm foreclosures have dropped from approximately 39 per cent in 1932 to 16 per cent. Delinquent pay ments dropped from 45 per cent to 13 per cent. Homes and living condi tions have been improved. No one, it seems, should doubt or question this being the fruits of our present farm program. We do not think this program perfect, but it is the best we can offer at the present time. Washington, D. C.. promises to make improvements as fast as possible when they are needed. A program that will fit the greater number of people in some instances will not suit some in dividuals—that fact is true. "The administration does not threaten the farmer, but tells us that if the control program on cotton and tobacco is voted down on December 10 they will not be in a position to make cotton, peanuts, and other loans to the farmers. There is no question in our minds that should the referendum go against control, loans, including seed loans, bank loans and many other loans spon sored by the government, will be cur tailed. "Many of our agriculture leaders be lieve that we will go backward maybe twenty years, and that it will take a whole generation to overcome what we have lost if the referendum on December 10th does not cany. "We believe it the duty of every person in Washington County to in terest himself and herself in carry ing the cotton and tobacco referen dum on December 10th." Slightly Injured In Auto Accident —®— An automobile operated by Gar land Haridson, payroll clerk for the North Carolina Pulp Company, left the highway about three miles east of Plymouth Monday night and crashed into a tree, almost complete ly demolishing the car. Mr. Hardi son, wlio was driving a company car escaped with only minor injuries. It was not learned whether there were any other occupants or not. Reports here were to the effect that Mr. Hardison had been to Rocky Mount on a trip for the company and had returned earlier. The ac cident occuued about 3 o'clock in the morning. Form of Returns Costs Mr. Darden Total 194 Votes A peculiar circumstance cost John W. Darden, judge of the re corder’s court, a total of 194 votes in the official certification of the county returns last week, it was learned after the meeting of the board of canvassers Thursday. Blanks furnished judges of elec tion at the various polling places for certifying precinct returns con tained no line for judge of record er’s court; however, the line for county auditor, which is not an elective office in this county, was marked out and used for the re corder’s returns by all the precinct officials except those in Scupper nong and Wenona. Mr. Darden had 178 votes in Scuppernong and 16 in Wenona which were not of ficially certified by the precinct au thorities, and hence could not be counted for him in the total coun ty returns. However, the happening had no effect on the outcome, as Mr. Dar den did not have any opposition, and he had 655 votes officially cer tified from the other three pre cincts. Mrs. K. S. Nobles To Supervise All County School Lunch Rooms Work Is Coordinated and Put Under Direction of Mrs. Nobles as WPA Project ——i Public school lunch rooms in Wash ington County have been coordinated under one supervisory officer, with Mrs. Kathleen S. Nobles reentering the work as county supervisor for the four white and one colored schools that will have this service. The four white schools are Plym outh, Roper, Creswell and Cherry; and the large Plymouth colored school will also inaugurate this sys tem of providing lunches at schools. The service will be continued as a WPA project and has been ex panded to include all the larger schools. R. B. Trotman, principal of the Plymouth school, pointed out that all of the lunch-room workers in his school had health certificates as re quired by the county and state, and also said that Mrs. Nobles would pre pare the menus for this school, as well as the other lunch rooms in the county. The principal further urges that children whose parents could afford to pay were asked to buy their food, and the profit from this source, as well as money from other sources, is being used in giving free lunches to about 60 children daily who cannot afford to purchase them. Floating Theatre Raised This Week —— Workmen succeeded this week in raising the Original Floating The atre, which sank Sunday before last, from the waters of the Roanoke River near Jamesville, and it was towed through here, bound for Elizabeth City, where it was to be tied up for a while. It was not definitely known whe ther repairs to the ill-fated vessel would be made there or whether, af ter temporary patching-up was done it would be towed to Norfolk, where it will remain until next season. The boat struck a submerged log. Members of the troupe were dismiss ed and bookings for the remainder of the season were cancelled. It is understood the damage to the boat and equipment will ambunt to ap proximately $5,000. -<s> H orker in Log II oods Suffers Sudden Illness -- G. C. Swanner, about 40, white, was biven medical attention by Dr. A. Papineau Tuesday and then sent to a Washington hospital by ambulance when the man was suddenly stricken with an acute illness caused by a perforated gastric ulcer.

W. Spruill, of the Plymouth Building and Loan As sociation, stated that his organization had a number of applications from worthy applicants for new homes. The present spending program on new homes represents an estimated expenditure of $12,000 or more. In cluded in the group are three dwell ings on Washington Street and Brink ley Avenue being erected by C. J. Norman; a home by E. E. Harrell at the foot of Jefferson Street; a beau tiful new residence on the highway at the eastern edge of towm for R. E. Dunning: remodeling of the home of T. A. Stubbs on Washington Street; and erection of a new home for Paul Gurganus in the South Plymouth settlement. In addition John L. Phelps has spent several thosands of dollars on new houses in the New Town sec tion and has remodeled several dwell ings on west Main Street. J. T. Mc Nair and his son, Ludford, have about completed their homes on the high way at the western edge of the towm. New Houses Must Be Built at Least 5 Feet From Property Line Town Council Passes Ordi nance To This Effect at Meeting Monday -* An ordinance was approxed by the Town Council in session here Mon day night that would prohibit future houses being built in Plymouth at a distance of less than 10 feet apart, as the result of efforts of W. M. Darden, who asked the council to adopt this ruling. Mr. Darden had in mind the pro tection of the home from Are, as well as sanitary reasons and cited the fact that unless such a ruling was made by the town officials the Federal Housing Administration would not be inclined to make loans for building homes here. J. R. Manning appeared before the officials again, asking them to pur chase an automobile for the police officers to use in patrolling the streets but the officials took the matter un der advisement. The officials also “took under ad visement’’ the purchase of a street grader. The 1938 budget estimate and tax rate of $2 per $100 of valuation was approved, and the clerk was ordered to have the summary published in accordance with the law.
