THE ONSLOW COUNTY News and Views Paid Circulation Local Advertising National Advertising / Classified Advertising Onslow County News The Only Newspaper in the World That Gives a Whoop About Onslow County — VOL. MIL NO. 29 JACKSONVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19. 1915 member or the associated press price : 5cPERCOPY$2.00 PER YEAS DOWN EAST WITH • ILLY ARTHUR # The boys around the cafe were inquiring about the health of Her man Faibaum the other morning and Herman declared he was fit as a fiddle. They didn't know they had read his ad in the papers wanting to sell out because of "ill health." 0Anent Hermans health. Jack Peck met him on the street the other morning and told folks that Herman was the only fellow in Jacksonville who kept his health in the cash register. "When the cash register doesn't open and close," Jack added, ' Her man has poor health." % Everett Lumpkin was getting the works in Jim Lynch's barber shop the other morning; and when he started to pay up he was billed for $2.05. "What's the five cents for?" Ev erett wanted know. "I told you I was going to give you some scientific manipulations today," Jim replied, "and the five cents is for that big word manip ulations'." £Jim Lynch's charge for big words brings to mind the current Coronet article about prissy Eng lish having departed this world, and that English now is consider ed correctly spoken when the usage of certain words and phrases be come commonly used. It would appear therefore, that Down East is way ahead of the times, so to speak, because the English used herein in the past five years has drawn considerable criticism from such learned peo ple as Mrs. Estelle Summersill and Rev. William O'Byrne, to name two of ihem. I'm not alking of the word "ain't" and similar ones, because they've been eood in good usage for years. Well, anyway. I think so. Coronet refers to such express ions as "Who do you want?" as be ing correct. It says there is no longer any distinction between "shall" and "will", that "lie" and "lay" are interchangeable, that a split infinitive is OK, that you can say "I wish I was . . .", thai there ain't (now ain't that more natural than saying isn't" any difference in lend and loan and who and whom, and that you can say "ev eryone was here but they have gone." My only wish is that English teachers were as sensible when I was trying to get through school. They were actually prudes about the way I wrote grammar. Probably it was my individual and unique employment of the language that caused me to be come a newspaperman. My last English teacher gave me \sing grade on condition that g as 1 remained at the L'ni W.' of North Carolina T would .ke another course in gram It wasn't so strange that the language tripped me. In fact, I left grammar school because of pneumonia. 1 didn't have it; just couldn't pell 't. Getting back, however. ;t does appear that the grammarians are catching up with the pace set by the News and Views for the past five ..ears. 0 Any why doesn't or don't an other group get wise. (Should I say get wise to themselves or to him self or to itself?) In recent weeks the flood of free advertising and publicity to newspapers began rolling again from radio celebreties. s;jap manu facturers. and even -ailroads. one being the dear old Seaboard Air Line. Why the SAL is picking on the News and Views io receive its drivel. I can't comprehend. Anyway, the other afternoon a telegram came, and this is what it said: " Please cancel news re lease scheduled a.m. October 18. Mr. White unable to address East ern N. C. Traffic Club. (Signed) Seaboard Air Lines News Bureau." I hope they didn't expect us to use the story in the first place. In fact, if we did receive It this week, I don't even remember throwing it in the wastebasket.

Proponnents Say Deeper Channel Is Needed j1 0 Deepening of New River chan nel from Jacksonville to the In land Waterway would result in substantial freight rate economies, stimulate agricultural develop ment. increase reproduction of shellfish and facilitate malaria control, the U. S. Army Engineers of the Wilmington district were told at a hearing here Tuesday. L. W. Hogshire, president of the Norfolk. Baltimore and Carolina line, freighters of which ply the Inland Waterway, telegraphed the hearing that his company would operate at least two freight boats into Jacksonville weekly if the channel were dredged to a depth of 12 feet. The hearing, conducted by the engineers with Col. E. E. Haring. Wilmington chief, presiding, was on a petition to increase the chan nel depth from 10 to 12 i'eet. It already is 90 feet wide, the same width as the Inland Waterway canal. Approximately 100 residents of Jacksonville and Onslow County attended the hearing and present ed written and oral arguments in favor of the proposal. No dissent ing oral or written argument was offered. Proponnents of the project con tended thai freight rate economies alone would result in savings to the public amounting to more than the cost of the work. Hogshire's message said that the water freight service his company would provide would result in rates at least 20 per cent under combination rail-water rates, or 25 per cent under all rail tariffs. Others who presented written or oral arguments were: Nere E. Day. Jacksonville: Farm Agent Charles C. Clark. Jr., Jacksonville; Farm Agent L. F. Weeks. Kenansville: G. E. Maultsby and B. J. Holle man, Jacksonville: Dr. H. W. Stevens. Wilson; J. D. Findlay, state inland fisheries commissioner of the Department of Conserva tion and Development, Kaleigh; Dr. H. F. Prythereh, head of the U. S. Biological Laboratory at Beaufort: \Y. O. Lambeth, New Bern, district soil conservationist; Mayor Ramon Askew and P. V. Capps of Jacksonville. The master appeal, signed by 18 business, professional, civic, local government and Marine corps men of the county, was presented by Attorney Nere E. Day for the Chamber of Commerce. It pointed out the increased population of Jacksonville and the county since I the last hearing, which resulted in a channel 10 feel deep and 00 feet wide, and the now diversified interests and business compared with only sawmill and agricultural petitions before. At present, the appeal stated, pulpwood exports by barge from Jacksonville would exceed former manufactured lumber shipments. In addition, rough logs to be man ufactured will be produced on the Marine Base and in Ilofmann For est, where also is now being con ducted an extensive cattle raising project that may result in cattle shipments from this section in the future. It was recalled that the Navy Department was unable to effect freight economies on lum ber shipments for construction of Camp Lejeune because there was no water freight competition of fered. Of commonly used everyday items, it was estimated, approxi mately 30 freight carloads are re ceived daily here. Compared with No a- Bern freight rates, Jackson ville's range from four to seven and one-half cents per 100 pounds higher. A schedule of rates per 100 pounds of certain commodi ties was offered to substantiate that contention, as follows: New Bern .lax Hem Origin Salt Cleveland Salt Dot riff Hate Rate .34 39 .35) .43 Jars Muncie ,52 .7n .53 .56 .41 .45'2 .37'j .45 Stei'l I'ittsburg Steel Maryland Flour Tennessee Supplementing the master ap peal. Clark, said some 15 tons of fertilizer now are used in Onslow County yearly, and that that con sumption is expected to increase with the development: of floricul ture hereabouts. Pointing out that only 20 per cent of Onslow's S'ul now is in cultivation, Clark said that more would be cleared and tilled in years to come. With that development will come increased consumption oi fertilizer and other farming materials which would bear a premium rate of freight without water Competition here. His views were shared by Weeks, who said that farmers of the east ern part of Duplin would benefit from the lower rates, particularly on fertilizer. Sim'lar economics were predict ed for gasoline and fuel oil by Maiuisby. local petroleum products distributor, and Hollcman. also a petroleum products distributor, (Continued on page six) Property Owners Get Time To Make Repairs National War Fund Is Launched; Dr. Greer Makes Inspiring Address #The National War Fund drive tii raise fund-s for 22 agencies plus local charitable and civic organ izations was formally launched in Onslow County Tuesday night with a kick-off dinner attended by 44 comnuinitv leaders at Fine Lodge USO. The workers, representing all but three sections of the county, we " told by Dr. I G. Greer, state vicechairman of the National War Fund, that the campaign is a "chal lenge to local pride and the best that is in us to make our com munity the best in the state." The superintendent of the Bap tist orphanage at Thomasville. who is well-known in Jacksonville, de clared that giving to such a worthy cause as the National War Fund would enable us to show our •'gratitude" and would give us "a feeling of self-respect." Chairman T. Newton Cook said he hoped the campaign would be concluded in ten days to two weeks and that the county at that time would have exceeded its $9,000 quota. Billy Arthur, pub licity chairman, acted as master of ceremonies, and other speakers were Father Charles McLaughlin and Maurice Margolis. Dr. Greer told the group that North Carolina had been assigned $1,214,000 as its quota in a nation wide drive to raise $115,000,000. The money is necessary, he point ed out. for use bv a number of agencies, principally the USO which will reap the lion's share ol the contributions. USO needs Ihe funds because "not all of the boys have come home" and enter tainment is still being provided them in this country and overseas to uiv? service personnel "a home away from home." As for .charities in Holland, to which part of the fund will go. Dr. Greer said that unless some assistance is given that stricken nation, it is estimated that 126 children will die each week this winter of starvation. As for Greece, for instance, in that nation prior to the 1944 campaign 19 out of every 20 children born were dy nig because of a lack of nutrition and care. After war fund monies began to trickle into that nation, 15 out of every 20 children lived. 'There are three kinds of givers you will encounter." Dr. Greer told the group. ' The first is the negative person who lives at the expense of the community, state and nation, who is a liability to the country, and who contributes nothing no matter how worthy the cause. "The second type is the zero person, who is a selfish, self cent cred sort of person, who be longs to the church, profess his worth and what he will and can do. but does nothing, one who is uninterested in humanity and in terested only in himself. "The third type," Dr. Greer con cluded. 'is the positive person who is interested in everything that makes for a better com munity. who is interested in people everywhere regardless of where they live, who is interested in humanity and ii making his com munity the best in the state." It was announced that E. M. Cannady. cashier of the First Citizens Bank and Trust company, had been named treasurer of the (Continued on page five) Charles Ervin Named Member Of Police Force Of Jacksonville £ Charles Ervin of Maysville lias been employed as a member of the .Jacksonville Police Department, succeeding E.

Top ranking Nazis named in the the indictment are charged individually and col lectively with crimes costing milions of lives. Hearings probably will begin in Novem ber. The defendants have been given 30 days to prepare their cases. Planning Committee For Recreation Now In The Making # Organization of a planning committee which will be concern ed with the operation of the Com munity Building, now known as Pine Lodge USO. if and when the USO suspends operations there, is now in the making, it was disclosed this week. Interested citizens who are mem bers of the Woman's Club and the Kiwanis club, parents of the Community Center, already are looking forward to meeting the problem that will b? presented when the building is turned back. Another coruliuoii the> will at tempt to meet will be recreational opportunities for all civilians and service personnel of all ages and sexes in this city. According to present plans, each civic organization in Jacksonville, plus the library. Chamber >f Com merce. and Boy Scouts would have one representative on the com mittee with the Kiwanis and Woman's clubs having two mem bers by virtue of their being the original sponsors of the project. A committer two years ago functioned to the extent that the building was leased to the USO. However, with the war being over the new group will be concerned with planning as well as disposi tion. The building came up for dis cussion at the meeting of the city board of commissioners Tuesday night. Last year the Onslow Coun ty Board of CommisMoners pro posed deeding the property to the City of Jacksonville, but the city board at that time refused to ac cept it until the boardwalk was repaired.

Means, United States Navy, who has re cently returned from a tour of duty in the Pacific, will deliver the eleven o'clock sermon at the Jack sonville Presbyterian church Sun day morning, October 21. # The Jacksonville Board of Com missioners Tuesday night voted to allow property owners until Jan uary 1 to make arrangements for repairs or demolition of buildings recently reported in violation of the State Building Code. The action was taken after sev eral appeals had been made for extension of the ten-day period allowed by the code, recently or dered enforced by the city. The requests for extensions were based on the statements that it is virtu ally impossible to secure con tractors, and the contractors to secure necessary labor, to do the repairs or demolition demanded in the orders. Formal notices of the board's action on the first Tuesday night were served on property owners Monday and Tuesday by Police Chief Paul M. Shore who affixed the red condemnation signs to the buildings. The notices demanded that action be taken by the prop erty owners within ten days. The board's latest action is only a period of grace. Tt means only that the property owners have ap proximately 70 days instead of ten days in which to carry out provi sions of the orders. The motion to allow the extra time was made by Commissioner J. Hedrick Aman, seconded by Commissioner H. L. Cowell, after Coleman Bynum had formally pre sented an appeal for an extension. Bynum. former chief of the fire department and operator of Cole man's Restaurant which was one of the buildings ordered repaired immediately, did not agree alto gether with the board's original action. He told the board and Mayor Ramon Askew flatly that he would like to "invite State Fire Marshal Sherwood Brockwell to Jackson ville to inspect the restaurant and the building occupied by Mayor Askew's Jacksonville Auto Sales "and if he says that my building is more of a fire hazard than the Jacksonville Auto Sales, I'll tear mine down in ten days." Only repairs and installation of fir.- extinguishers were ordered by the board for the mayor's business establishment, and that had not taken well with Coleman. James Lawson, Negro Killed; Officers Hunt For William McDowell 0.lames Lawson. 45-year-old Ne gro employee of Camp Lejeune, was shot and killed about 8 p.m. Monday near Piney Green, and sheriff's officers are seeking Wil liam McDowell, also colored of Lynchburg. S. C.. whom they say did the shooting. Lawson is origi nally from Greensboro, and both worked at Camp Lejeune. Deputies Willis Johnson and James Likens, who investigated the slaying, said that the cause of the shooting had been undeter mined. It was established, however, they said, that McDowell fired three times at Lawson with a shotgun, once from the porch of his resi dence just below Piney Green, and twice more from the yard and near the highway. The first two shots apparently missed, but the third struck Lawson in the head. McDowell is at large.
