Annexation (Continued from Page 1) nexation is maintained by the state highway commission at the pres ent time. Immediately following the an nexation, if it is approved, the city would extend zoning protection to the property in the area and begin a survey to lay out streets and do the elementary city planning. After the public hearing the area may be annexed by resolution if less than IS per cent of the resi dents sign a petition for an elec tion. If 15 per cent or more sign such a petition, the county board of elections will hold a referendum and the area will be annexed only if a majority of those qualified voters in the area vote for it to be annexed. Mr. Dill explained that the city has limited the area to be annexed because "we can serve this area and we don't want to bite off more than we can chew." Members of the board of commis sioners pointed out to the civic leaders that the town was trying to proceed with the annexation in the most democratic way possible. "We could have done this by an act of the legislature as many towns.and citiesadid this year," Mr. Dill said, "but we felt that it would not be right. We want everybody to get the facts straight on this thing and express their opinions."

Beaufort (Continued from Page 1) i standpoint of law enforcement and justice. He praised the police of ficers for the excellent work which they have done in enforcing the laws since the court was estate lished. The commissioners finally de cided that they would continue the present system fpr the time being. They said that if it later appeared that the court was not working they would then ask the legislature for permission to abolish the court. Refuse Support Mr. Smith said that the proposed bill would not require that the court be abolished but would mere ly give permission to abolish it and collect money from the county board. The commissioners, how ever, declined to support the meas ure. The commissioners also said that they did not feel that they would * be justified in seeking a pay raise at this time. The bill would give permission to raise the mayor's salary to $150 per month and the salaries of commissioners to $25 per month.
