THURSDAY NOVEMBER 29,1962 State Trooper G. R. Stewart Nabs Load of Illegal Whiskey Sunday Seventeen quarts of illegal non tax paid whiskey were confiscated Sunday by Highway Patrolman G R. Stewart. Stewart, who was setting up a routine road block outside Kenans ville, noticed a 1963 Chevrolet par ked beside the road. Tiie Patrol man approached the car to investi gate and a Negro, standing behind the car, ran into the woods. Patrolman Stewart then searched Mm car and found the illegal whis key. A check with the Department of Motor Vehicles revealed that the car was registered to William Rob inson Jr.. 32. of Mount Olive. The car and the whiskey were turned over to the sheriff's office. On Monday Robinson appeared at the sheriffs office to report the car stolen. He said that it had been taken the day before while he was in Raleigh.

Vets Mud Report Incomes Earlier / This year, income reporting time begins one month earlier for 25.773 disabled veterans and the depend ents of some 19,156 deceased veter ans receiving Veterans Administra tion pension in North Carolina. J. D. DeRamUs, manager of the Veterans Administration regional office in Winston-Salem, stated to day that al Veterans Administra tion pension recipients will receive an income questionnaire card along With their Nov. 30 checks. Instruc tions for completing these cards will also be enclosed and it is im portant that these instructions be followed. The income questionnaire card must be processed by the Vet erans Admiinstration on tabulating equipment so it la also important that the card not be folded or mu tilated in any way. On tttene cards beneficiaries must report all income received during 1962 and that expected in 1963. Those who have fixed or regular in come may return their completed questinnaires to the Veterans Ad ministration immediately, Other who do not know what their income for *68 will be may have to wait un til after iDec. 31. Law requires the Veterans Administration to use the reports to determine continued eli gibility of pensioners and in some cases to make adjustments on the basts of increased or decreased out side income. The most important thing is get ting these cards back to the Veter ans Administration as soon as pos sible. t Prompt, complete and accurate reporting can save the Veterans Administration - and the benefi ciary - both delay and headache. For assistance with these income questionnaires see your County Service Officer J. B. Wallace at the courthouse in Kenansville. Beulaville Mayor Narrowly Escapes Death by Asphyxiation at Office Monday's high winds have been determined as the cause that nea rly brought about the asphyxia tion of Beulaville Mayor G. S. Mui drow. Muidrow was found unconscious in his office Monday morning, ap parently overcome by fumes from a gas heater. He was rushed to the Duplin General Hospital in Kenansville where he responded to oxygen therapy. Roy Aibertaon, who works next door to the Mayor's office, was the first to discover the near tra gedy when he went to the Ma yor's office and found Mr. Mui drow slumped over his desk.

The Mayor's office is heated by a small gas heater that is ven tilated for the express purpose of preventing asphyxiation.

Mr. Blue is editor and publisher of the Sandhill Citizens. With Blue was Mr. firitt, they were through the county to attend the funeral of John M. Hareett who was principal of the Beulaville Sch ool for many year, and was buried in Onslow County. The weather has been something to talk about for the past week. Rain and wind and wind and rain. The coast must have suffered quite a bit but I haven't been able to get down and see any damage, and haven't heard any beach home owners complaining. Duplin Country Club members are most enthusiastic and excited about the swimming pool which is being constructed now. The swimming pool is to be ready by May 1 of 1963. That will be fun! In the Progress Sentinel issue of last week, a letter was published to the Editor stating that the Dup lin Times had not published a cer tain letter wihich was written by Larry McCuilen of Warsaw. The Ver was published on the Editor . Page of the Duplin Times in the issue of October 25 under the column "Open Forum". It would be greatly appreciated if people i who are going to -oublicly .criticize before fney make statements. The problems of publication are many if yqu turn your back on an issue your paper is not worth a darn, if you openly attack an issue your enemies are many. If you attack one issue and. miss another issue, you are showing partiality. But one thing I have discovered news is like love it is not very careful where it falls. Ruth Police Looking For Man Who Attacked Girl Police officials in Warsaw and Kenansvitle are still looking today for a 'Negro man who Saturday night raped a 16-year old Negro girl.

Albertson to Dedicate Postofffice Building; David Henderson to Speak Albertson's new post office will be dedicated at 2 p. m. Sunday, Dec, 2, Postmaster Melvin Potter announced this week. The new facility, located at Al bertson, is part of the Post Office Department's unique commercial leasing plan, the local postmaster explained. Under this program, investment financing is used to obtain needed facilities which remain under pri vate ownership, pay local taxes to this community, and are leased to the Federal Government. At the same time, the need for large outlays of money from the Federal Treasury for construction purposes is eliminated. The New Post Office is being leased to the Post Office Department by M. B. Holt. Like most of the new postal build ings that are going up across the country, this post office is leased to the Post Office Department. This gives the Department some flexi bility in adapting its building pro gram to changes in mail volume, transportation and population, Post master Potter said. The Department is now concen trating on constructing new postal units only where they are most urgently needed. In areas where is is practical to do so, existing buildings are undergoing renova tion. The (act that Albert son has been chosen for a new post office," Post master Potter said, "reflects credit on our growing contribution to the economy and life of the nation." Meanwhile, for the local postal dedication, the Postmaster announ ced that the following are among the guests expected to attend: Hon. David Henderson, Mr. Er vert King Postal Programs Offic er, County Officials, School Officials and others. "Our patron wffl derive more enjoyment from doing business here, their mail will be handled more efficiently and this building and its up-to-date equipment will enable our postal employees '.a work under the best of conditiona." the Postmaster commented. "The new facility," lie added, "will be a link with a postal system that today has over 45,000 postal in stallations. T h i 8 saytem serves more than 100 million Americans and handles over two-thirds of ths world's mail. Our 580,000 postal em ployees are handling about 65 bil lion pieces of mail a year, includ ing over a billion parcels," tha postmaster added. "National population increases will add neariy 1000,000 people to the population In the next 12 mon ths. with about one and a halt million marriages and the estab lishment of 682,000 new households, including many in this comraanity," the postmaster noted. This will be reflected in increasing demands lor more postal service here," be ex
