Swansboro Secures
Senator Whitaker To
Help With Projects
® Stale Senator R. A Whitaker of
Kinston assisting the Town' f
Swan.sljoro aet ready lo make ap
ptif:»tion for Federal funds, if and
when they are made available, for
necessary street surfacing and im
provements.
Trior to the war a Federal pro
ject was used to install curbs and
gutters in that: community, but the
streets never were surfaced accord
ing to projected plans at that time.
As a result, the streets are literal
ly washing away and are in terri

Swansboro town officials be
lieve that the Federal government
will make available some funds to
communities which are unable to
finance the work without it being
too tax-burdensome.

announced.
0 The hearing on proposed deep
ening of New River channel from
Jacksonville to the Inland Water
way will be held in the Onslow
County Courthouse this morning
at 10 o'clock.
It will be conducted by the U.S.
Army Engineers of the Wilming
ton District of which Col. E. E.
Haring is in command.
P. V. Capps, local wholesale
company owner, and Nero E. Day,
Jacksonville attorney, will present
the case of local interests who
desire that the channel be dredged
to a depth of 12 feet to accomo
daie Inland Waterway freighters.
Other local citizens will also pre
sent statements as to the need and
desirability of the project.
Capps. who heads a Chamber of
Commerce committee, said yester
day that he hoped every business
man in the county would be pre
sent at. the hearing to give sup
port. both moral and factual, to
the proposal. The project, it was
emphasized, affects the entire coun
ty. If approved, it will provide
water competitive freight rates for
Jacksonville, such as Wilmington,
New Bern and Greenville now
have, and result in a substantial
saving on freight, savings that will
be beneficial to consumers as well
as distributors.
The channel now has a width of
90 feet and a depth of 10 feet, the
depth insufficient to accommodate
inland waterway freighters. A
depth of two more feet is being
asked.
