This action was taken after what the board called "harassment by news media, especially television". Members of the Citizens Committee for Better Schools, a Mars Hill organization, last week con fronted Fred W. Anderson, superintendent, in regard to titles and whereabouts of 13 vehicles including trucks and weapon carriers, a cement mixer and a generator set. At issue is the disposition of a number of vehicles and machinery purchased as surplus equipment. Anderson said he showed the parties the titles and that he is now in the process of determining the location of each of the vehicles obtained by himself and his predecessor, W. W. Peek. A state surplus property official said Monday of this week that he will look into the questions raised by the group concerning surplus federal trucks ob tained by the county board of education. (Story on Page One) So1, again, our county is receiving adverse publi city - If the board of education and Mr. Anderson can satisfy the state surplus officials that all is "in order", then this matter should be dropped. On the other hand, if the local board is found guilty of violations of the use of vehicles and equipment, they should be dealt with. T We do think it is a shame that the procurement program for surplus property should be halted. . .Our understanding is that Valuable property can be pur chased for practically nothing through the program , whereas the cost of comparable prope -ty not under the surplus program would, be-prohibit ve. f It seems that thousands of dollars can be saved " by the purchase of army surplus propterty which in the long run saves our taxpayers thousands of dollars. We regret that the board has found it feasible to ais- continue its participation in the program. , We bejieve the people are entitled to know where the surplus property is being used and for what Is it not being purchased with taxpayers' money? We also believe that the members of the board of edu cation should be willing to explain, why certain pro ' perties were purchased and where they are. We al so believe that members of the Citizens Committee for Better Schools and all others who are concerned - about this matter shoujd be most caref ul m their ac cusations, and by trying to understand each others motives, our county will not suffer more than it has. F,IRE PREVENTION WEEK i ' It is appropriate that the observance of Nation al Fire Prevention Week comes during the first of , October when many people are faced with the ne cessity of heating their homes again after the sum mer months. ' It is during this period that many fires occur, due to faulty heating systems and unsafe fur naces and chimneys. . . . ; t To call the public's attention to the danger of such tragedies, National Fire Prevention Week is set aside from October 9 through October 14 this year. Observance of this week is ajso intended to remind citizens of the many deaths and huge property losses, which result each year from carelessness m the use, of fire. . . 1 . We urge all readers to make a resolution to ex press extreme care to prevent tragedies resulting from fires in this community. A little thought about t this will pay dividends and possibly prevent unneces sary deaths. ' ' Carefulness in the woods at this time, of the year will also save many millions of dollars worth of tim ber, which is consumed bjy forest fires every year. When one realizes that several farms in the United C'-tes' burn eveijy hour, the seriousness of Fire Pre vention Week will be appreciated. Too often only t' who have experienced a fire appreciate the ;.ed every year at about this time, and we , ' -3 in this community will concern them x problem during Fire Prevention (Mrs. 'Raileigh King, C3, 3. flSarshall, died nexr 1 8:00 p. in., Thursday, OcU' t r I, 1361 in (her (home.
