REA Manager J Reports Growth The Carteret - Craven Electric Membership corporation has ex perienced a phenomenal growth since January 1850, according to a report released today by W. C. Carlton, manager of the corpora tion. He stated that the sale of electrical energy by the company , has practically doubled during the period of January 1950 to August 1951. In January 1950 the mem bers of the cooperative used 216, 728 kilowatt hours while in August 1951 the usage waa 429,614 kilo watt hours. The growth in member-consum ers has progressed steadily during the same period, increasing from 1,680 to 2,291. Carlton pointed out that the increasing use of electri cal energy on the farms to meet production goals for the defense effort has been a big factor in the growth. Four hundred eighty-two farma and rural residences were added to the list of member-con sumers receiving power from the ?lines of the co-operative during the ( period. To take care of the electric en ergy requirements the company has .recently doubled its substation ca i, pacity, added voltage regulators to , provide better service, and com . pleted plans for the construction ; of a new substation in the Cherry I Point Havelock area, f A temporary substation is to be , built at once at that paint pending I delivery in 1962 of the permanent substation.

H. L. Joslyn, county superinten dent of schools, stated that this move was proposed by the highway commission itself several months ago, but has not been carried out. The board directed that copies of their resolution be sent to Dr. Henry Jordan, head of the state highway commission, and Guy Har gett, chief of the second division, State Highway and Public Works commission. At present, the superintendent of schools says the children riding the school bus to Atlantic get off the bus and walk across the rickety bridge now in use and then board it again on the opposite side. Even the bus itself has to be directed across the bridge by someone sig naling the driver which way to turn, because the driver cannot see the bridge siderailings. Although the draw at New Bern is larger than necessary, it is be lieved it could be adapted for use at Cedar Island. The board accepted the resigna tion of Moses Howard, Newport school committeeman, and appoint ed in his place Loyd Nelson Garn er. Although the board was expect ed to receive a letter from the Morehead City recreation commis sion regarding the need for a new gymnasium at Morehead City, no letter was received. The superin tendent also stated that no one from the committee for restoration of the USO in Morehead City, had appeared in regard to a proposal that the county maintain the USO building and use it for classrooms.

By Frank Weaver "The residents of this section are not taking full advantage of their library facilities," states Mrs. Paul Woodard, librarian at the Carteret County Public library, Beaufort. Mrs. Woodard expressed her opinion for this week librarians all over the country are being espe cially interested in publicizing the value of libraries. This interest culminated in yesterday being hail ed as National Library day, so Mrs. Woodard's voice is but one of many thousands who have been empha sizing the vital role libraries play in a commqnity's culture. 12,000 Volumes "Our library," revealed Mrs. Woodard, "has over 12,000 vol umes. not counting magazines and newspapers, ranging in subject matter from fine arts to philoso phy. But most people come in wanting some late novel and never seem to realize that under this roof there are numerous other types of works." Mrs. Woodard remembers when the Beaufor.t library had only 6.484 volumes, and that was only back in 1941. "In the past ten years," she smiled, "we have acquired enough books to double the figure. Today it's 12,718." "What is more," the librarian continued, "this figure is growing by the month. For the last year I've been ordering about 50 new books the first of every month." Since Mrs. Woodard is not a col lege-trained librarian all her or ders for new books must go through the st^e office in Raleigh. This form of censorship is not dis tasteful to Mrs. Woodard in the least. "No one can come in and blame me for having such and such book on the shelf," she stated. "I can always pass the blame to the au See LIBRARIAN, Page 4 Beaufort Chief Of Police Dies ?> Louis B.

Skarren Joins Force; Defense Chairman Submits Resignation The Beaufort town board has placed Officer Carlton Garner in charge of the police department pending the appointment of a new chief of police. Garner, who has been night policeman, was desig nated by the board Monday night after it was reported that the chief. Louis B. Willis, was in the hos pital. Chief Willis died Wednes day morning. In addition to Officer Maxwell Wade, William D. Skarren, former Beaufort mail man, has been placed on the force temporarily. The board withheld action on the resignation pf Gene C. Smith as Beaufort's civil defense director. Mayor L. W. Hassell remarked that Smith had done a good job and the commissioners expressed the hope that he would change his mind and decide to remain as defense di rector. UN Chairman Named Wiley Taylor, town attorney, was named chairman of United Nations day observance in Beau fort. The mayor was requested to appoint a committee for UN Day by the National Citizens' commit tee. Mayor Hassell told Taylor to select his own committee. The board passed a resolution putting Beaufort town employees under the North Carolina Public Employees social security plan and Commissioners Math Chaplain and Clifford Lewis were requested to investigate a request by Thornton Darling to build a fish house at the west end of Broad street. The town clerk, Dan Walker, re ported that 40 of the 100 forms sent to businessmen, requesting them to give an estimate of their year's annual business as a basis for levying privilege tax, had been returned. The town attorney commented that such was to be expected, that the way the town had decided to levy the tax in the first place was best, and suggested that unless all forms were returned by Oct. the commissioners revert to the former system. The board agreed. The commis sioners meet again Monday, Oct. 15. to take action on accepting within the town limits a portion of Front street extended. To Pay Fees Street Superintendent Clyde Peterson reported that Burl Tosto and Carl Gaskill, whose property was recently released from within the town limits, agreed to pay the town a $25 sewer fee. The town clerk reported that at the end of September all town bills had been paid with the exeep tion of last year's audit expense and the pending Tide Water Power company bill. Paid on the new garbage truck was $1,030 plus $1,000 on the body, also paid was the cost of the new dump body on one of the street trucks. In the debt service account at the end of the month was $14,000 and the bal ance in the general fund was $1,000. Walker said that a report on how well department heads were keep ing within their budget would be made to the department heads each month. Commissioner O. T. Mundy suggested that the town employees shftuld be given vacations. The clerk said that it was financially impossible to give them paid vaca tions right now but he said he felt confident that the savings the new garbage loader would effect would make it likely that paid vacations could be worked out in the near future. To Sell Truck Commissioners authorized the clerk and the street superintendent to sell the town's Chevrolet truck. Superintendent Peterson said the new garbage loader is doing "good work." Only two trips a day are made to the dump as compared with six trips a day heretofore. The board discussed the town's saving cardboard which is picked up on garbage collections and sell ing it. Peterson remarked that it See TOWN BOARD, Page 4 Morehead City Schotl Board Moots Last Kf hi The Morehead City school board met at the school last night and W. C.

BASH Group Sets Two-Week Period For Club Surveys Members of the Beaufort Armed Services Hospitality committee, at a meeting Wednesday night at the town hall, decided that the BASH committee will continue for two more weeks. During that time a survey of the civic organizations involved will be made. If the groups are no longer interested in continuing the committee, it will be disbanded.

College President Launches / Fund Campaign forBoy Scouts "Scouting is free America's an swer to the dictator's scheme of iron discipline, blind subservience, and the emotional drag of hatred and prejudice of the youth pro gram of the dictators of the world," a prominent North Carolina college president said in a talk Tuesday. Dr. John D. Mcssick, president of East Carolina college in Green ville. made the address to open the East Carolina council's annual drive for funds for Boy Scout work. He addressed most of his remarks to the 500 volunteer workers who are taking part in the drive. Col lecting funds in Carteret kcounty arei N. F. Eure, Beaufort, and Dr. S. W. Hatcher. Morehead City. Dr. Messick quoted Robert Thompson, a top ranking member of the communist national commit tee as saying, "Work among the youth of our country is not just an other important field of work for our party and the progressive forces. It is a decisive fielH of work. In all truth we can say that the forces that win the youth of 'the country will win the country." Dr. Messick further emphasized that American citizens must recog nize the fact that the genius of Scouting is that the movement is not a great nation-wide organiza tion which controls troops, packs, ships and squadrons. Rather, Scouting is a nation-wide federation of many churches, service clubs, fraternal organizations and groups of citizens using the program de veloped by personnel selected or elected by tha individual institu tion's own representatives, on tbe Boy Scout district, council or na tional tav*L Dr. Messick urged the East Caro lina council campaign workers to explain to their friends and busi ness associates how the Scouting dollar is spent in their local coun cil. He pointed out that M cents of the dollar is urffcJ to provide a carefully selected and professional ly trained staff of men to provide supervision for presently organized troops, packs and other units. It also is used to give guidance to the institutional head, unit leader, com mittee and district Scout personnel. Eleven cents will be spent for camping and activities for Scouts, Cubs and Explorers, including the camping and picnic opportunities at the East Carolina council's 134 acre Camp Charles. It also will be used to provide merit badge shows, camporees, Cub circus and short term camping opportunities. Ten centa of the Scouting dol lar is spent to provide training for unit leaders in their own commun ities or in their own district. Some ?of L 'raining is personally given by sUli workers. Nine cents of the Scouting dollar is used to extend the program of Scouting to more boys under the leadership of more men in the communities throughout eastern North Carolina. Fifteen cents of that dollar, Dr. Messick said, i#used to provide the local council administration which includes a complete record of every boy that enters the program, from the time he joins into perpetuity, and provides a council office as service station to institutions and unit loaders Only on* cut o( tlx dollar is used.

Parked alongside Guthrie, headed east, was a truck driven' by Edwin Guthrie, also of Salter Path. The two drivers were chatting, the patrolman said. Lewis saw the truck's headlights, but could not see past the beams. He saw that the other car was blocking the road when it was too late to stop.

J. May, county I'MA secretary, announced today. All practices that have been approved under the 1951 program must be completed by Oct. 31 and a report on them made to the I'MA office. Seventy-five farmers, he report ed. have already applied for as sistance under the 1952 program and have been accepted, providing they completed their conservation projects for last year. May urges any farmers interested in establishing permanent pasture, ?Seeding fall cover crops, or top dressing his pasture, to visit the PMA office before carrying out the proposed work. Three hundred farmers took part in the program last year, but this was only 50 per cent participation, May pointed out, as he expressed the hope that more farmers would take part this year. Last year's appropriation was $17,344 but the appropriation for 1952 is expected to be about 15 per cent lesa, the PMA secretary said. However, this entitles a far mer to $1 per acre in assistance or a minimum for any farm of five tons of lime and aid in establish ing one acre of permanent pasture. Connly Receives $2,715.76.

Two Towns Will Receive Visits " By OPS Analysts To obtain maximum voluntary compliance with the price stabiliza tion program, the Raleigh OPS is sending business analysts to More head City and Beaufort next week. They will be fn Morehead City Monday, beginning at 10 o'clock in the municipal building and will be in Beaufort, beginning at 9:30 a.m. in the town hall. J. A. DuBois, manager of the Morehead City chamber of com merce. and Dan Walker, manager r?f the Beaufort chamber of com merce, said that even though all the deadlines for filing have pass ed, the OPS is offering one more opportunity to help businessmen who have not yet complied. "A large number of firms in this area covered by Regulation 34, which applies to businesses render ing services for which a fee is charged, have not filed with the OPS." said Acting District Director Alton G. Murchison, "and we are especially anxious for this group to meet the requirements immediate ly; otherwise, enforcement proceed ings will be instigated." Regulation 34 covers firms of fering services encountered daily by the public, the OPS explained, and among these are laundry, dry cleaning and tailor shops, shoe re pairs, ?filling stations, auto, radio and household appliance repairs, parking lots, bowling alleys, golf fees, admissions to amusement parks, and a host of other services. Residents of this area are urged to meet with the OPS representa tive for assistance they may need regarding any OPS regulation. As a service to businessmen of east ern Carolina, the Raleigh OPS has scheduled trips to citics throughout the district under the sponsorship of merchants associations and chambers of commerce. "Immediate compliance by busi- ? ness firms with OPS regulations is essential to protect the public, to stabilize an emergency economy and to carry out the defense pro gram of this country," said Mur chison. "We arc doing everything possible to assist businessmen to comply with the stabilization pro gram." he continued, "but we will resort to enforcement action if compliance is not effected volun tarily."
