Rollman Says War Must
Be Averted By Helping
Underprivileged Nations
HEINZ W. ROLLMAN
? I
A plan to avoid another world
war by raising the living standards
of underprivileged nations so they
would have no reason for accepting
communism was described Thurs
day night by a prominent Wa.vnes
ville businessman to the Lions
Club
The speaker. II W. Kollman,
president cj iUi^urcU. which
?maintains shoe factories in 30
countries (of which Wellco is a
part), has had I)is plan receive na
tional recognition by Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt in her newspaper column
and through members of Congress
11< whom he has been sending his
ideas.
Mr. Rollman. for the purpose of
establishing world peace, has or
ganized because "what it will take
is world construction, and what we
have (o do is stop world destruc- i
lion."
The plan, as he outlined it. calls
for a maintenance of our military
potent ial#but that it be cut down
to (he essentials of parity with the
Russians. The saving of $30 or $40
billion that Mr. Rollman said would
result each year should be used to i
getting people all over the world
to work for the benefit of the un
derprivileged nations.
"Russia knows," Mr. Rollman
pointed out. "that atomic bombs
alone will not break our back" bul
must follow up such an attack with
an invasion of the U S. with the
millions of soldiers taken from
satellite countries. That is the rea
son. the speaker said, as to why
Stalin is attempting to subjugate so
many nations.
"Let's forget about Russia, we
can't get in there, and there is
nothing we can do to make the
Russian people see daylight." the
speaker said, "But what we can do
is this:

Water Bond Election Set For
Waynesville November 8th
Expansion
Oi Water
System Is
Urgent Need
The week of November second
will be a busy one for voters in
Waynesville?the general election
on Tuesday, the fourth, and the
$300,000 water {pind el eel ion on
Saturday, tile 8th.
The Board of Aldermen set the
new date for Saturday, November
8th. after postponing the election
front June 28th, due to the Sec
ond Primary.
The Board felt that two elec
tions on the same day in June
would tie confusing to the voters
of the town, and ordered a post
ponement. In the meantime the
Haywood drv forces had pei;tinned
the County hoard of elections for
an election on hecr and wine, and
the board of aldermen refused to
call the water bond election, sinre
such an election would have block
ed the holding iff the beer-wine
election.
The water bond election is for
the purpose of expanding the facil
ities of the water system; by In
creasing the capacity of the pipe
lines from the mountain, and con
struction of a new filtering plant.
Town officials pointed out that
there is sufficient water on the
mountain, but the facilities for
getting it to the filtering plant,
and getting it filtered is far frotn
| large enough to sunplv the increas.
' tug 'rtcifiaWds for water
A few weeks ago, the community
jexperienced a serious water short
age during the peak of the season,
[ when the dry weather had curtail
ed the (low of the streams, and re
duced the pressure on the inoun
! tain.
Town officials have pointed out
that tlic water bonds, and interest
would be repaid from water re
ceipts and that no additional tax
would be put on property to meet
the obligations on the bonds. "The
water department will be self
supporting, and pay'for the cxpan
i sion, without a Denny cost to prop
erty owners, except for the actual
water consumed," an official point
ed out.

School Buses Get
More Attention
From Patrolmen
The stale's school bus transpor
tation program Is going to receive
more attention from thp Highway
Patrol according to a directive
from the patrol's commanding offi
cers, Col. W. B. Lentz.
Col. Lent* sid today certain new
steps Ui insure fhe safety of cltil
dren riding school buses were to
become effective immediately. A
more comprehensive inspection of
every school bus. with permanent
records on the vehicle's condition,
will be set up, Col. Lentz said, A
regular monthly check will be
made by a highway patrolman and
a copy of his report will be filed
with patrol headquarters, the
county superintendent and the
chief mechanic. "Inspection of
school buses by patrolmen isn't
new," Col. Lentz remarked, "but
the inspection will be more detail
ed henceforth."
In addition to more comprehen
sive inspections, Col. Lentz said a
patrolman will accompany each
school bus driver on his regular
route at least once during the
school year. During that time the
officer will observe the driver's
habits and skill at the wheel. He
will make notes of potentially dan
gerous road conditions such as
blind curves, intersections and
shrubbery along the shoulders. Col.
Lentz Indicated that the State
Highway Commission wouM co
operate in removing or altering any
particularly hazardous condition.
The accompanying patrolman I
will also make special check- on |
