Willis Fishing Interests Protest Proposed Closing of Waters Marine Corps Requests Rac coon Key Island Area Be Closed io' Navigation The Institute of Fisheries Re search, the State Board of Conser vation and Development, and fish ermen have filed protests with Col. R. C. Brown, Corps of Army Engi neers, Wilmington, in regard to the Marine Corps request that the Raccoon Key Island area be closed ? to navigation. The protests inform the Army Engineers corps that the area is a valuable oystering grounds. To close it would mean closing also the strait between Raccoon Key Is land and the marsh, making boats heading for the Neuse river from the southeast seek another pas sage. To do so would mean a run of an additional 10 or 15 miles. Although the Marine Corps has npt stated a reason for wanting this spot in Cedar Island Bay clos ed, it is believed that it is wanted for a bombing target ranfie. Around Raccoon Key two years ago 20,000 bushels of oyster shells were planted and the area now is a valuable source of food and in come, the protests point out. It is estimated that closing of waters and island specified by the Marine Corps would affect 50 to 150 boats and 15 shucking houses, according to W. A.

' '? --- Supreme Court Says Morehead Judge Not Qualified to Serve Carolina Phone Company Allowed Rate Increase J Utilities Commission Auth orizes $750,000 Ratfi Hike Annually Raleigh? (AP) ? The Carolina Telephone and Telegraph company of Tarboro, which serves 88,095 subscribers in eastern North Caro lina, will increase its rates by $750, OOO annually. This was authorized, effective immediately, in a majority order handed down Monday by the State Utilities commission. One commissioner, Joshua James, dissented. The company, second largest tel ephone firm in the state, operates 104 exchanges and services Car teret county. It had asked for in creases totaling $1,273,359. Needs More Revenue In its order, written by Com missioner Harry Westcott, the com mission said the company needed the additional revenue to finance improvements and meet increased operating costs. Carolina Telephone is the fifth phone firm in the past week to re ceive authorization to increase its rates. Southern Bell Telephone and TH* graph 1 company, the state's largest, has asked for permission to hike its rates by $3,563,839 a >ear. A decision on this is due within the next few days. Rates Will Vary . The rate increases for Carolina Telephone customers will vary, de pending on the size of the ex change. For business phones, the increase will range from 50 cents to $1.25 for one-party service; 25 cents to 75 cents for two-party; 25 cents to 75 cents for four-party; and 75 cents to $1.75 for multi party. For residential phones, the new increase will be from 50 cents to $1.25 for one-party ; 50 cents to $1.25 for two-party; 25 cents to $1.50 for four-party; and 75 cents to $1.75 for multi-party. James, in dissenting, said the increase was at least $100,000 in excess of what would be "fair, just and reasonable to both the appli cant and the public." He added that records show the company's stockholders "have been realizing enviable earnings on their invest ments." By state superior court ruling Wednesday, Judge Luther Hamilton of More head City has been found un qualified as an emergency superior court judge. The higher court also nullified his judgments in two cases and opened the way for re hearing of all cases tried be fore the "retired" superior court judge in the six weeks of court sessions over which he has presided since his re tirement. Hamilton's.regular term as a special judge expired June 30. 1949. Not having been re appoint ed as a special judge by Governor Scott, he applied, eight days be fore his term expired, for retire ment. which is allowed by state law if a judge has served six years on the bench and only if he is to tally disabled through accident or disease Then the state pays him for life two-thirds of the annual salary he had been receiving. The c#urt commented to the cf feet that Hamilton's ability to con tinue holding court indicated that his "total disability to carry on duties of the office has disappeared or is no longer existent." In an opinion written by Chief Justice Stacy, the court held that Hamilton's commission to serve as an emergency judge was "improvi dently issued." The supreme court's investiga tion of the former jurist's case was on the court's own volition. Arthur Johnsey, staff writer for tbt. Greensboro Duly News, re the court's proceedings follows: New Hanover Cue The nullifying action wife taken in a civil case arising from New Hanover county where Hamilton held a two-week court term in May. Then, basing its second decision on the New Hanover decision, it vacated and returned to the docket for trial another civil case, appeal ed from Henderson county where Hamilton had held a two-week Sep tember term. The court made it clear that other cases on appeal from Judge Hamilton's emergency terms would be treated in like fashion. 'Improvident' Action The court decided the Morehcad City jurist, .for over six years a special judge, had retired under a "total disability" clause which made it "improvident" for Gover nor Scott to give him a commis sion to serve in an emergency status. The court opinion explained that Hamilton's last two-year term as See SUPREME COURT, Page 6 LETTER TO THE EDITOR Thomas H. Carrow Comments On Beaufort9 s Debt, Taxes Dec. 12, 1S5? Philadelphia, Pa. To the Editor: I have been interested in the debt situation in Beaufort ever since the bonds for paving the streets were issued because I re member the mud puddles all over the town before the streets were paved. Tonight I read the Dec. 8th is sue of THE NEWS-TIMES, the article. Beaufort Board Considers Raising Tax Rate 20 Cents, and the editorial under the caption, Beau fort and Taxes. My interest was further stimulated. It all reminds me of a piece that appeared in the morning paper here some 40 years ago under the caption. Philadilphia Corrupt and Contented. How would tbu do for the caption of an article on the debt -tax situation in Beaufort: Beaufort Befuddled and Be knight ed It is incomprehensible to me how a body of m?n whose duty it is to handle the town's business intelligently and honestly can hes itate to take any action that is feasible to liquidate the town's honest debts, not only because it is dishonest to do otherwise, but a deliberate planned failure to do to makes Beaufort a byword amoaf the many fine towns and cities of the state. For year* when I bar* consid ered buying property in BsMtet I was deterred by the debt and tax matter. I have do doubt that May - n n mlii others have felt the same way. The citizens want paved streets, running water and fire and police protection. But evidently they don't want to pay for it. The fact is that if the right tax had been levied immediately after the bonds were issued, the debt would have been wholly or nearly all paid, while failure to do so has no doubt created heavy accruals in interest due. My guess is that a small per centage of the amount spent by adult citizens for cigarettes, amuse ments, lipstick, holiday gas and other non-essentials would more than cover the increase in the tax rate proposed by Mr. Barbour. Spending money for the things mentioned is perfectly okay, but if necessary, which It isn't, 1 should think it would be agreeable to cut present quotas until the debt is paid. Anyway, I can say. after having lived in a great many places, that a town overridden with debt is a stench in the body politic. Busi ness men fight shy of such towns. And Beaufort can never reach its maximum development until it pays off its debt. Thaw as H.
