W CARTERET COUNTY NEWS-TIMES ??< 48rd YEAR, NO. 67. THREE SECTIONS TWENTY-TWO PACHB MOREHEAD CITY AND BEAUFORT, NORTH CAROLINA FRIDAY, JULY 16, 1954 PUBLISHED TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS Beaufort Citizen Questions 'High Costs' in Town Court j. u. Barbour jr., Beautort, que*'' tioned the "high costs," *2130. of Beaufort's Recorder'! Court at the monthly meeting of the Beaufort Town Board Monday night. Mr. Barbour explained that he was not representing any certain group but that there was a general opinion among the businessmen of the town that the court costs were "too high." He said the business men felt that the coats were driv ing away prospective customers and "leaving a bad taste towards Beaufort in the mouths of many people.'', ' He emphasized that he came to the meeting in a friendly manner and was open-minded to all explan ations. If the costs of court need ed to be so high, it was all right by him, he said. But, if the costs were to be considered a source of revenue for the town, he stated that he was afraid that "it might backfire" and Beaufort would be known as a town where it was easy to be arrested. He felt the costs, $2150, were too high for minor or first viola tions, he said. He gave the charge of failing to stop at a stop sign as an example. He said *21.50 is pretty steep to pay for not stop ping at a stop sign. He pointed out, however, that he realized that failing to stop at a stop sign might lead to a serious accident sometime. Mr. Barbour explained that there should be some way in which persons could be warned or have a lighter penalty placed on them, ac cording to the seriousness of their action. Costs Set by Statute Dan Walker, town clerk, pointed out that the costs of court were set by statute but the judge could levy a portion of the costs instead of imposing the full costs on pei? sons found guilty. Carl Hatsell, member of the town board, said he believed that the people would not have as much re spect for the law if the costs were lowered. - "You've got to make it hurt, he said. Judge Earl Mason, judge of the Beaufort Recorder's Court came in at this point of the meet ing and Mr. Walker suggested that Mr. Barbour relate to Judge Mason 33?sai sbw* plaided it to the town board. Judge Mason said, "1 don't be lieve in cutting down on the costs. I think it has to be *21.50 or noth ing. You've got to be impartial and you can't cut the costs for one and not for the other. The only solution to the problem would be to do away with the court." Mr. Barbour asked, "Is it possi ble to suspend coats in the case of aj minor or first violation?" ? 'Go By the Rules' J Judge Mason answered, "Yes, but you've got to go by the rules. You can't do it for one and not for the other You have to be fair.' Mr. Walker pointed out that though he sometimes disagrees with the judge he thought that Judge Mason was doing a good job. He said there were several cams In whioh Judge Mason had played a part in reforming per sons brought before the court. Since operation of the court is in the hands of the judge, the town board could take no action on Mr. Barbour's grievance, either for or against. Businessmen Plan Coming Election Newport businessmen discussed election of new officers, which will be held in September, at * meet ing of the Newport Businessmen's association Monday in the former Newport School cafeteria. Other plans talked over were changing the meeting night and reactivating the new industry com mittee, reported Charles Hill, pres ident The group will improve the area around the welcome signs Wednes day.

Betts, Beaufort postmaster, has submitted a request to the as sistant postmaster general for con struction of a new driveway to the postoffice, the widening of the driveway on Pollock Street and a new platform on the proposed driveway. Mr. Betts said Wednesday that the plans have been under consid eration for about a year. He said a sketch of the proposed construc tion has been drawn and if the plans are approved, bids will be called for. Mr. Betts says the plans specify a 20-foot driveway leading in from Front Street. A new 10 by 15 foot platform will be built on it and the driveway on Pollock Street will be widened to 16 feet on each side at the entrance. He said the additions are need ed because of the traffic problem. The trucks cause a traffic block on Pollock Street when they back into the postoffice driveway. With the widening of the driveway, trucks will be able to use the drive way without backing. The proposed driveway on Front Street will eliminate traffic prob lems behind the postoffice, he con cluded.

Beaufort Board Says 'Proceed With Zoning' Hals?y Paul, Planning Board Chairman, Makes Proposal Monday Night The Beaufort Town Board au thorized zoning the new town areas of Front Street Extension, Ann Street Extension and the re-zoning of Live Oak Street when it met Monday night. Halsey Paul, chairrfian of the Planning Board, brought the recom mendations before the commis sioners. Front Street Extension and Ann Street Extension are proposed to be zoned as residential while Live Oak Street, from Ann northward' through the business area will be re-zoned for business. At present it is residential. The zoning will include both sides of the streets so that each side will have equal opportunity to either speak for or .against the proposal. Dan Walker, town clerk, was au thorized to advertise a public hear ing on the zoning recommendation. The clerk also suggested that trucks be prohibited from use of Ann Street extension as proposed at the June board meeting. The board authorized ordering of signs to prevent trucks from using Ann to get ?o the eastern section of Lcnnoxville Road. Wants Reimbursement In other business brought before the board, Ed Hendley stated that he had paid town taxes for eight years without getting town services and discovered recently that his home is 15 feet outside of the town limits. He said that he would like to get a refund on the taxes. Hendley said he got sewer and garbage services in 1951 but did not receive those services from 1943 until 1951. Mr. Walker pointed out that if Hendley's taxes were refunded the town of Beaufort would have to bill him for the sewer that was run out to his house and the cost of the sewer would be greater than the amount of the taxes. Mr. Walker said the only way Hendley could get his tax money bmok would be to sue the town. He said, however, Hendley did the town would have to enter a counter suit. The board decided to think about the situation. J. P. Betts. Beaufort postmaster, asked the board to give the post office permission to widen the poet office driveway on Pollock Street See BOARD, Page t Coast Guard, Plane, Sheriff Swoop Down on Jeep Driver The Coast Guard, an airplane i and the sheriff got together Friday i afternoon to apprehend a man who I made off with a jeep at Cape Look- I out.

They i put the plane down on the beach, [ got into a Coast Guard jeep and r soon met up with the Bryant jeep which was being driven by , Lewis. Lewis asked the sheriff, "Are f you Mr. Bryant?" And the reply was, "No, I'm ? the sheriff!" 1, ?The jeep had been locked in the t Bryant garage. It was started by c shorting ignition wires.
