FISH FRY Tho annual community fish fry will bo hold at Schloy on Thurs day, July 4. -Go School Plea Doomed I County _ . _ ■ Board Moves tlear Adoption Of Its Budget w Ihe Board of County Commis ■ioners moved toward final deter mination of the new budget and Itounty tax rate this week, but a wumber of vital decisions still re mained in the role of final deter p,oun to be settled is the important •cbools segmdht of the budget which accounts "for wfeil over half of the total levy. It k apparent, however, that the bid for additional capital outlay funds tram the Chap-, el Hill School System, which would in effect bring the county nearer a /•pay-as-you-go" system of school financing, has no likelihood of suc cess in the coming year. Several members of the board indicated frankly .there is "no like lihood that the Chapel Hill request Will' be granted." This is a request that $75,000 be appropriated in each of the next three years for a new . building which estimates indicate j.will be nedSed at that time. ' Major increases thus far, on the basis of decisions which have been made, are in the Health Depart ment and Sheriff's Department bud gets. On the basis of thc-Se preliminary decisions, the Health Department iw-Ul get a $5,000 increase or one half of the request made by Dr. <d. D. Garvin for Orange County's share of the operation of the Dis trict Health Department for the next year. The Board has. voted to appropriate $25,000 for health pur poses this year as -compared to $B0, 000 a year ago, a 25 per cent in crease. Dr. , Garvin ha«j cited de creased State and Federal support as justification for the increase. Sentiment of the board is that Sheriff Odell Clayton should be giv er. funds for at least one additional full time deputy and possibly an additional part-time deputy to aid him in his law enforcement pro-. I gram. Additional radio equipment and uniforms will ge required tot I thes^ officers if they are authorized Thus far, the 'commissioners have balked at increased travel allow ances for- the deputies but. the to tal departmental appropriation ap pears headed for a least a 20 per cent incerase. including a small ad dtional travel allowance and salary increase for the Sheriff . Story Hour To Be Started The Story-Telling Hour, a new vacation feature of the public li brary. •Wiil*’ begin on Wednesday, July. 10th and will be held on each Wednesday through July 31st; The hour between 3 and 4 o’clock will be devoted 4o stories and-movies of particular interest to children be; i tween the ages of 5 and 12 years. Mrs. Bessie Ware of the Durham Dairy Council will be in charge of story telling .with a wide variety of stories for the enjoyment of the youngsters. John Umstead Says . . . UNC Fared Very Well With Generah Assembly; Teachers Pay Hike Cited As Top State Measure By REP. JOHN W. UMSTEAD The 1957 session of the General Assembly broke all records for the number of bills introduced and for the' number enacted into law. Since 1931 I have attended each session of the Assembly either as a mem ber or as a lobbyist and this was the hardest working body that I have seen. Thev may have made some mis takes but they tried to get the facts about legislation proposed and then took time to give each matter con sideration to the end that they might do what was for the 'best interest of all the people of the state Per sonally I was pleased with most of the legislation thSt was passed. There was sqjne proposed legislation that was killed that greatly dis pleased me. About UNC Before getting into the statewide picture let me give you some idea of how the University tame out with its requests for operating funds and for permanent improvements. A* stated before the economy of our County and Town is largely depen dent upon state appropriations. This makes legislative action on appro priations the item of greatest im portance to the majority of the readers of this paper. As regards funds for operating the University the budget Commis sion in its recommendations was liberal and the administration felt that it cpuld live with these recom mendations with two exceptions. It requested additional - funds for —- - - -—at-.-.-.— . .. book* for Uie Library and addition al funds for the activation of the addition to the Psychiatric Build ing. The subcommittee on ap propriations. of which I was a member, very kindly granted our requests in the above mentioned matters. Another request granted after quite a bit of consideration was the request of the administration that the salary increases for the in structional staff should be allocated to the University In a lump sum. It was felt* that this arrangement would enable them to use the in crease to the best advantage. , The Sub-CommKtee also granted the increase on that part of salaries paid by" foundations and from sour ces such as the Kenan Fund. Hits __•_«' _ ' » »- . t should be a great help in getting and keeping top notch personnel. Although the administration could use more money for salaries to good advantage I feel that on the whole tt is pleased with what it got and feel that it will mean bet ter morale insofar as the University at Chapel Hill is concerned. Ia the matter of permanent im provements I think that we have no grounds for complaint. There are many needed items In this field that the Budget Commission failed to recommend but we got many that were bady needed and when we consider the requests that came from other Institutions I feel that we got our share of the (finds available for the purpose.
