Along The Way
k
L By Emily Klllette r
. - Taxes are one bill people do not
tike to pay. Often complaints are
Voiced that the taxpayer sees no
benefit from his or her money.
; - Warsaw citizens in 1934 had many
complaints for their town officials.
.And, one was the lack of night light
in their town. Even though Warsaw
had street lights, the town was dark
?and many taxpaying citizens de
jnanded an explanation.
-The March 1. 1934 issue erf the
DUPLIN HERALD carried a story
I'lf Citizens of Warsaw Would Pay
Taxes City Might Be Lighted Up."
* * The story stemmed from citizen
^demand and is a reply from a first
term Mayor. The story follows:
' if Citizens of Warsaw Would
* Pav Taxes City Might be Lighted Up
In answer to critics about cam
Ipaign pledges. Mayor Barden says
'that improvements would be made if
the taxpayers would help by paying
part of what is due.
"If the taxpayers of Warsaw
vyould pay just half of the taxes that
are due the town, the street lights
would probably be turned on and
things might begin to look like old
times," said Mayor J.J. Barden, Jr.,
.in answer to some criticisms that
have been going the rounds lately.
Mayor Barden is reported to have
^promised, if elected to that office, he
twould make lots of improvements.
;For instance, the white way, which
-has been cut off for over two years,
would be turned on, and lots of other
^things would be improved. Mayor
garden's statement was not in
tended as a plea for re-election, as he
still has another year to serve, nor
'has he made any mention.of running
-again for the office. Critics have
been insinuating that the town is no
better under his administration than
others, and this was the cause of the
Mayor making this statement. It is
true that the town cannot run without
money, and the money to run it with
must come from the taxpayers. The
bo?*s show that there is still due the
town from this source about 75
percent for taxes. The Mayor, no
doubt, would be glad to make a lot of
improvements, especially in refe
rence to taxes, unless the citizens
cooperate. Business in Warsaw now
is far better than it was six months
ago. All vacant buildings are being
occupied, and it is rumored that we
are to have a picture show, also
several enterprises are contemplat
ing locating here. The thing to
interest outside enterprises, is to
have a town well lighted, and all
public enterprises functioning to the
limit. Our water works system is as
good m any, and the service is
absolutely perfect. During the past
five years, there have not been one
minute that water of the very best
type. couiy not be obtained.
Pay up your taxes, and help the
Mayor make good what he promised..
Warsaw to Have Up-to-date Picture
Show Seen
After a long recess in the enter
tainment line, Warsaw is again
going to have a picture show. From
reports reaching the HERALD, Mr.
Robert Lang Farmville, who is
now proprietor of the Wayne Theatre
in Mount Olive and also one in
Selma, has leased the old Crystal
Theatre building, formerly operated
by Jack Quinn, and expects on or
about March ISth to start a show.
Mr. Lang is well experienced along
this line and the patrons of Warsaw
and vicinity will be given enter
tainment of the highest quality.
It is not learned what the name of
the new show will be, but in all
probability Mr. Lang will let the
.people of Warsaw or Duplin County
select it. Just who will manage the
local theatre has not been learned,
but it is thought that Mr. Sooke,
who now has charge of the Wayne
Theatre at Mount Olive will be in
charge.
The above story about Warsaw's
theatre reopening was also pub- .
lishci in the DUPUN HERALD
March 1,1934.
