Dr . Paul Whitaker
Speaks Monday -
To County Doctors
Dr. Paul F. Whitaker of Kinston,
former president of the North
Carolina Medical society, addressed
the Carteret County Medical socie
ty at its monthly meeting Monday
?night. The meeting followed din
ner at the Morehead City hospital,
the hospital acting as host.
Dr. Whitaker's subject was psy
chosomatic medicine. Psychoso
matic medicine is the medical spe
cialty which deals with the inter
relationship between bodily pro
cesses and emotional life. He
dealt, particularly, with the anxie
ty states.
He said that "emotion" is cap
able of producing all the symptoms
M a physical disease. He called
attention to the fact that the
"anxious" patient needs from a doc
tor more than anything else a sym
pathetic understanding of the pa
tient's anxieties and fears. He
recommended that the patient do
the talking, that is, unburden him
self to the doctor, and that this, in
many cases, was more effective
. than any kind of drug treatment.
Dr. Whitaker was introduced by
Dr. S. W. Thompson.
Other matters coming before the
society were the following an
nouncements by the health officer,
Dr. N. T. Ennett, of three cases of
polio in the county within the past
month; that the VD medical center
of Durham had been closed by the
state health department and sev
eral VD centers had been estab
lished in different parts of the
state, the one serving Carteret
county being established ,1 the
?Wilmington health department.
Dr. "EHr?ett, who is cAatfrran of
the public relations committee of
the society, announced the ap
pointment of Dr. F. E. tfyde, med
ical member and Dr. John W. Mor
ris, surgical member of the public
relations committee.
Dr. Ennett was appointed by

Carteret County Medical society at

says he will continue to do so until
he's 92!
Mr. Morehead was graduated
at the University of North Caro
lina in 1891 where he majored in
chemistry and electricity. After
graduation he went with the com
pany, Wilson Aluminum at Leaks
ville, for whom he had been doing
chemistry work while in school.
He developed the first calcium
carbide which is the basis of all
development of the Union Carbide
and Carbon corporation.
After a term of service with
Westinghouse in 1892-94, Mr. More
head went with the Consolidated
Traction company in Jersey City
and worked in the power house.
He helped put motors under all the
old horse cars, two seven and a
half horsepower motors under each
car. The horses, of course, were
turned out to pasture and maybe
even ended up in the glue factory.
Today Mr. Morehead reports that
the cars have four 50-horse motors
and the fast inter-urban jobs each
have four 200-horse motors. The
Wilson Aluminum company, he
adds, was the forerunner of the
Union Carbide corporation and
after his stint in Jersey City, he
went back with Wilson.
Today he is chief engineer of
Union Carbide which has an
nounced plans for building 4 $30
million plant for the manufacture
of synthetic fibers in Mr. More
head's boyhood stamping grounds
at Leaksville-Spray. The company
has acquired 816 acres of land in
the vicinity of the old Morehead
home which Mr. Morehead still
owns.
The grandson of Gov. John Mot
ley Morehead served a year in the
Army in tl*c first world war and
*as ambaceador to Sweden from
ldtfQ-Mr We proudly points out
that he was appointed by President
Hoofrer! ?
On the political angle, Mr. More
head said industry is interested in
North Carolina for many reasons,
among them the fact that there
has been little, if any, corruption
in state government.
Mr. Moreheact and his charming
wife visited Beaufort Wednesday

Paul A. Turner, Newport, found
r'lty Tuesday in recorder's court
the charge of assault with a
knife, was given a six-month sus
pended sentence and a $100 fine
by Judge Lambert Morris. H. A.
Smith, New Bern, the man Turner
assaulted, was found guilty of us
ihg loud and profane language
and ordered to pay court costs.
According to testimony, Smith
and his companion, Thelma Clan
cy, New Bern, pickcd up Turner
and a Marine at James City at the
i foot of the Trent river bridge late
Saturday afternoon. Turner said
he wanted to go to his home at
Newport and the Marine wanted
to go to Cherry Point.
Smith let the Marine off at the
base and then went on to Newport
to Turner's place.
Smith, carrying a wad of gauze
and adhesive tape on his left check
where he had been slashed, told
the court that when they got to
Newport Turner offered him $1
to take him to the place where he
lived "out in the country."
Smith said he took Turner to
the place and there he and Turner
got out ot the car and went into
Turner's bedroom which was off|
the porch. According to Smith's
story, he was in his car with the
Glancy woman getting ready to
leave when Turner came at him
with the knife and cut him. After
that happened, he said he and the
girl jumped out of the car and
made their way across the fields
for help.
Smith presented a letter from a
doctor stating that 25-30 stitches
were required to close the gash in
his cheek.
Turner Teatlfles
Turner, on the witness stand,
said that he was 33 years of age
and was farming for Roy Gamer
who employed him about five
weeks ago. Although he was from
Duplin county, Turner said that
his father is now living at Have
lock. He told the Aourt that last
Saturday at 3:30 p.m. he took the
bus from Newport to New Bern
where he met up with a Marine and
had a few beers.
The two then decided to hitch a
ride back to the base and to New
port and wefe at James City when
Smith stopped. With Smith was I
"this woman," said Turner, point
to the Glancy girl who was in the
court room.
While they were riding along
the highway, Smith asked Turner
if he wanted a drink, according to
Turner's testimony. Turner said
that he didn't want a drink but
Smith stopped the car and went
to a drive-in place and came out
with a pint of liquor. Turner said
Smith took a drink but that he and
the Marine didn't.
Upon questioning by Attorney
Alvah Hamilton, who was counsel
for Turner, Turner said he did not
give Smith money for liquor, that
he gave him only $1 to take him
to tbe place he lived on the Nine
foot road.
The defendant said that when
he got to his place,, he thanked
Smith and got out "After I gave
him the dollar, the girl aald she
wanted to see where I lived and
she went on in the place and sat
on the bed."
Turner said that Smith then call
ed him out on the porch and ask
ed him if he wanted a date with
the girl. Turner said he didn't and
Smith countered with, "Par $10
you can go in there . . Turner
testified that again he said no and
added that Smith was drunk. He
reported that the girl then got up
and went out of the house, which
la owned by Roy Garner. She
went to the car and then Smith
walked along the porch to another
portion of the house which is used
for tobacco storage, Turner add.

The defendant told tbe copt

door, and seeing the tobacco, said,
"Let's take some of this to Georgia
and sell it"

"North Carolina must realize its
possibilities so that it can build a
still greater state," said Governor
Scott as he reviewed measures that

for the state.
Talks on Tax
The governor suggested that the
state gasoline tax now being re
funded to users of marine engines
in North Carolina be kept in a fund
for further development of the
state's numerous inland ports and
waterways. This rebate in some
18 coastal counties amounted to
approximately $155,000 last year.
He added that the port was the
dream of the public leaders of
North Carolina for more than 100
years. The port was brought about
by the work of several generations.
Morehead Speaks
Morehead, grandson of the
founder of Morehead City, said
thta it is obvious that "North Caro
lina is distinctly on the march." ,
He said that the development of
the port was long a dream of his i
grandfather. He also said that the
port terminal was an even greater
necessity today. Many of the great
names in industry have come to
North Carolina and they need an
outlet to the sea.
He paid tribute to former Gov
ernors Morrison and Cherry, to the
old Morehead City Ports commis
sion, members of the State Ports
authority and its executive direc
tor, Colonel George W. Gillette,
and to Governor Scott for the
"magnificent work" they have done
to develop port facilities in which
about $5 million have been invested
here since the mid-1930s.
"With our vast store and variety
of natural resources and advan
tages, with our pure native stock,
with our state government, always
singularly free from scandal and
corruption, we have a great deal
to offer, and are set to ride the
waves of progress and of prosper
ity," Morehead added as he con
cluded his address.
He was introduced by Gordon
Gray, president of the University
of North Carolina.
Mayor Welcomes Guests
Mayor George W. Dill of More
head City welcomed the 1,500
guests to the dedication. He said
that it was "a great day for More
head City, Carteret county, and
North Carolina." ?
Chairman A. G. Myers of the
State Ports authority introduced
the members of his board. He said
much of the credit for the building
of the port terminal should go to
Col. G. W. Gillette, executive di
rector of the ports authority.
Dr. Ben F. Royal, Morehead
City, served as master of cere
monies at the dedication. The
Rev. Priestley Conyers III, pastor
of the Webb Memorial Presbyterian
church of Morehead City, gave the
invocation.
A luncheon for the guests at the
Dunes club, near Atlantic Beach,
followed the dedication ceremonies.
During the afternoon, the Navy
held open house aboard the trans
port USS Bottineau, tied up at the
port terminal. Tours of the har
bor and inlet started from More
head City yacht basin and Marine
fliers from Cherry Point air base
put on an air show during the
afternoon.
The celebration ended with a
dance sponsored by the Morehead
City Jaycees at the port terminal
warehouse last night. Music was
provided by the Clrollnians from
Chapel Hill.
