Letters were redd from a former Teachey, N.C, lady, now wife of an army career man who expressed concern that "Freedom Of Choice" is no longer legal in this free land. A lengthy letter was read from an absent board member, who cited the evils of the past generation and reminded the group The group oppressed concern over the fact diet five school buildings in Duplin County would be phased out this year, where as the plan presented earlier only called for two schools to be discontinued. Concern was also expressed over fear that this was a method being used to force already tax burdened citizens in further taxation of a school bond referendum in the amount of six million dollars. The Idee of bringing a counter suit against the school board School Board member Graham Phillips, Jr., explained to the t'rouf that die board has tried to work out a plan which they elt would be most beneficial to the whole school system. He pointed out that decisions made by judges in authority were according to their interpatation of the constitution, and thatj' * ratification of the constitution has been considered. However, the prevailing laws are the governing body under which the Board of Education Is operating. A motion was made and carried that "should any plan other than freedom of choice as we know it today be put into effect, , it is die opinion of die Duplin County citizens for better schools,. that s boycott of die schools by every parents child who Is forced' to attend a school that la not of his or her choosing can be only appraised as taking the same stand for fresdam that thousands of Americans have taken before diem and are taking now in Vietnam.** Qrengia furhter stated that such a move is not desirable, bet becomes necessary in an effort to show State and' National representatives, teachers, parents and children I ii Fat I Shooti i ? ? m Bond has been set for 11,000 each by Magestrate WJ.

Johnson Hill, "With the pre rground water level dropping each year, water con servation Is essential". Many people agree with Mr. Jotason in reoqgnitiing the im pedance of this program for Dqplin County in minimizing the present danger of flooding in pur streams and rivers; andfln the increased Income to the area from the proposed recreational lake in tike north eastern area of die county. In addition to recreational facilities, the proposed 5,800 acre lake, unofficially refered to as Kornegay Lake would contain sufficient water storage to furnish up to ten million gallons of water per day for town, industrial, and agricul tural usage. The proposed flood control project In reives a 100 foot cha nnel along the lower part of the Northeast River to Increase the "runoff" of flood waters. Proposal for flood control, dra inage and conservation for Rockftah Creek, Cypress Cr eek. Muddy Creek. Limestone Creek, Island Creek, Stewarts Creek, Goshen Swamp, Grove Swamp, Maxwell Creek, and Turkey Creek are under con sideration. The amount of tax involved in the referendum is the max imum amount that will ever be needed to develop these water sheds. However, it is anticip ated that only one or two cents will be enough to do the job, and in many instances this work can be financed by the use of nontax funds without levying any additional tax at all. "It is just something Duplin County can't afford to vote down," said Johnson.

Faml DUtrtct Conservationist There are many benefits that cm be expected from ? water shed project: land treatment, reduced flooding. Improved dr ainage, more recreation, and other things whicbwonld be hard to list. f? Land treatment probably is the one most Important item in a watershed project and the most important thing on any land whether there is. a water shed project involved or not. If die land is not properly treated, that is protected, any money spent on flood preven tion, drainage or recreation would be wasted. If valuable topsoil is allowed to wash aw ay, you will not be able to make a good crop whether it be tobacco, corn, soybeans, tr ees. or grass. Also, this same topsoil that washes off of the higher land will fill up the rivers, creeks, and ponds, and mate them useless. Some of the things which could save the soil are good conser vation cropping systems, or crop rotations along with some needed and essential structural measures such as terraces, gr assed waterways, deversions, strip cropping, and others. By establishing a good crop rotation, you help save the soil because you conserve the crop residue and cover crops which help to build up the fertility of the soil, as well as saving the topsoil. Sometimes, a good crop rotation is not enough, because the land is too steep, too sandy, or has too many draws or sullies for you to fa rm profitably. When you have problems such as these, then you need to consider other mea sures in addition to crop rota tion to save the soil. If the land is very sloping, you probably need a system Tyndall Receives Promotion ENKA. N.C., July IS ~ John F.
