head City, said yesterday, "I feel
the governor's action was taken
after due consideration and what
has been done was done for the
best interest of the ports."
A portion of Governor Hodges'
statement relative to port admin
istration, follows:
"It is not easy to change com
pletely the membership of an im
portant agency such as the State
Ports Authority. Such changes j
have to be made, however, when
conditions and circumstances ?
many times beyond the control of |
any individual involved?inakc it j

what is best for the State as a
whole in the operation of these two I

I deep-water port facilities. After
months of study and consideration, |
I reluctantly came to the conclu
sion that serious problems in pub
lic relations and morale required
a complete change in the Author
ity.
ji "J should like to make it clear
| that this decision was entirely
I mine, and that it is not meant to
cast reflection on any member of
the old Authority because they arc
I my friends and men with outstand
j ing records in their individual
| fields of endeavor . . .
| I hope very much that not only
Wilmington and Morehead City,
but the entire slate will rally be
hind the new ports authority and
all citizens who can will assist the
state, ports in export and import
shipments. Our tonnage is growing
at each of the ports, and 1 believe
there is a bright future ahead for
Wilmington and Morehead City.
North Carolina needs these grow
ing and expanding port operations
if we are to meet the serious eco

Four Fire Departments
Save Part of Fish Plant
A fire that caused an
estimated $15,000 damage I
swept through the Clayton
Fuleher shrimp packingi
building and dehydrating
plant early Wednesday i
morning at Atlantic. The loss
is partially covered by insur
ance.
Fire equipment from four com-.
(minifies answered the call for j
help. Trucks were on the scene
from Atlantic's Down East depart-'
ment Marshallbcrg, Beaufort, and
Morehcad City.
Fish-packing operations were
proceeding as usual at the undam
aged parts of the plant yesterday
and the trawlers were out fishing.
Harry Fuleher, who owns and op
erates the business with his
brother. Clayton Jr. and his father,
Clayton Sr.. said that they are
fortunate the shrimp season is
over. The shrimp packing build
ing will not be needed until spring. '
The Fulchers. meanwhile, hope i
to get their buildings rebuilt by
that time.
The fire is believed to have start
Pf| j?- u.o wirin-f near the roof of
the buildings. Time or the outbreak
??f the flames has been set between
1:30 a.m. and about 3 a.m.
Harry and Clayton Jr. were
working at the plant until 1 30 a.m.
and when they left, everything was
normal. Lionel (iilgo Jr. noticed
the flames as he was starting out
fishing and wakened the Fulchers
a few minutes before 3 a.m.
By the time the brothers got
there, the roof was ready to cave
in. The shrimp packing plant was
a frame building about 45 by 90
feet and the dehydrating plant was
concrete block. L-shapcd, 120 by 40
by about 20 feet.
In the shrimp house were parts
for boats, netting and 400 boxes of
trash fish which were ready to go
into the dehydrating plant. In the
dehydrating plant were four tons
of dried fish meal in addition to
the dehydrating machinery.
One of the Fuleher trawlers tied
up at the dock started to catch fire,
but Harry got aboard and moved
it to the other side of the harbor.
He said it was extremely for
tunate that the wind was from the
north, fanriing the flames offshore.
Had it been from the south, the en
tire plant may have been lost.
He said the Down East fire truck,
housed at Atlantic, spelled the dif
ference, too. between partial and
total loss. All the fire departments
did a fine job, he declared.
This is the first time that the
Fuleher plant has ever suffered
fire loss. The shrimp packing plant
was about 10 years old and the de
hydrating plant was built about
three years ago.
