Cattle Sale Set
Where do you go to buy a
cow? Or for that matter, to
sell one?
This question may not be a
pertinent one for some peop
le, but for dairymen it is not
only an important question, it
can be a problematic one as
well.
In the past, Western North
Carolina diarymen had to
travel away from this area to
attend a sale. The nearest sale

as Federal Cochairman of the Appalachian Regional Commission at ceremonies in the Rooeevett
Room of the White House. Vice President Walter F. Mondale administered the «h-?h of office to
the former Governor. Mondale commented that “ARC has a great challenge before it. We are
fortunate that In Governor Bob Scott we have a new Federal CochaJnnan who is equal to that
challenge. Bob was an outstanding Governor of the State of North Carolina and one of the most
active and respected members of the Southern Governor’s Conference.” Among those present at
the swearing-in ceremony were N.C. Congressmen Richardson Preyer and bm.r Gadget, Robert
S. Strauss, former Chairman the Democratic National Committee, and presently serving as
Special Representative for T' tde Negotiations, and Senator Jennings Randolph, West Virginia.
Governor Scott will be the ARC’s fifth Federal Cochaltman mid the only former Governor to serve
in ihls position. He will represent President Carter in administering the largest regional
development program In the history of the United States.

TO THE EDITOR $
Dear Editor:
I don’t know who your representative Is hi Raleigh. But
wrote Governor Jim Hunt a letter the other day telling him a
the two lane highway to Burnsville.
I was bom and raised in Yancey County. I told hhn
thought they should not build any more roads around Charlott 1 '
and should give the money to the western part of the state. > ’
couple of nights later, on TV, Governor Hunt said he ws
taking some of the road money from Charlotte and giving it t ‘
other parts of the state. I hope he keeps his promise!
So get Yancey County’s representative to work.
Sincerely, **
Mrs. Roby H. Morehead ,A

Dear Eaton - ~J
On Jay 6 we arrived in your beautiful mountains far I
week’s vacation. My husband, being interested in fishing bar ;r
asked the lady we rented the house from what kind of fishto| -
license was required. We were Informed that ■ 3-day permit foi
$5.50 was necessary, bat we should inquire locally to mala *'
sure. We asked two local people, one of whom loaned m 1
fishing eqripment and told ns where to fish, and they said tfa
3-day permit was what to buy.
On Saturday, July 9, my husband and Dad [who wai ‘
visiting us] went into Burnsville to a store In the shopping
center and asked for the necessary license and waa sold lb
3-day permh. They were given no book of rules and regulatiem
with the license. . r
Feeling confident that they had the necessary license the) 'i
went fishing. They had been fishing for approximately Va bom -
and had caught nothing when the Game Warden arrived. Hr"-
asked for their license and they gave them to hhn. He liifmairt
them that they needed a Trout Stamp, [even though the river
was not marked anywhere that It was trout waters] mid hi
arrested them. Neither of them had ever been arrested before.
They had to follow hhn Into Burnsville and go before V
magistrate who fined them $27.00 each. He told them ftegi
could go to court, but it did not meet until July 21 and om
vacation ended July 18. : |
We are a young couple with two small children. We
worked and saved all year just to spend one week hi yum
beautiful mountains. We had carefully budgeted our mousy,
thinking die iicmise would be $5.50. The unexpected $27.61 ;
fine phis the. $6.75 for the trout stamp was mote than we j
could afford. This took the money we would have spent on ’
seeing the great attractions In your area. We were m ’
disappointed we came home right away, not even stoyfog out ?
the week.
1 appeal to you for justice. I don’t feel they should Imvu
been fined for a totally innocent mistake. If they had bean
trying to get Sway without a license they would not have peii :
$5.50 for a permit nor would they have parked a car with •
Florida license plates in full view of the read. \
the people we met in Yancey County were the friendliest we 5
have ever met and I just don’t believe you will tolerate —I "
injustice.
Thank yon for this opportunity to express oar foeltngs. «

Dear Editor:
Would you please print this open letter to CETA j
Participants and Yancey County citizens Some voters now {
find themselves waking up to shocking »tH—rtn««. in lerttf
government. When human beings cannot be placed above
politics, it creates a power-crazed monster. The Board «t\
County Commissioners make claim of being fair and just, when "
In fact they do not even consider the hon-dfacrimhiatlon and *
Equal Employment Opportunity clauses in their own contract ‘
with OET. . ?
In order to even be eligible for CETA hinds, the county f
most have an Affirmative Action Plan and sign legri'
Administrative Issuances and Certificationa assuring non- !
discrimination because of race, age, color, sex, refigtes, •
national origin, political affiliation, or handicap. AO CETA '
program operators most adhere to these regulations or looe ?•
their contract. They never once considered the rnmrqnoiitee .
when they gave me a notice of dismissal Monday, Juty 18, |
withont a reason, except the fact that I am a registered:
Republican. Prior to this date, they hired another person Md £
she was on the job site Tuesday, July 19.
This is a violation became all County jmdtiMis should bn !
advertised in the paper to aDow all citizens an oppOrtanßy to ‘
■PPfy- This discrimination wffl go on unless the ettiaens of the ?
coonty take action. For these participants who may be the next t
victim id the political hatchet, just m»l| your -
Hearing Officer, OET, P.O. Box 1350, Raleigh, N.C. 27602 or J
call 919-733-4524 and ask for Doris Hall or Ed s-m. in •

Dear Edlton
The majestic mountains, the picturesque streams and :
beautiful sceuery-a delight to the aesthetic eye-appealed to j
as so strongly ipon our. initial visit to Yancey County. But an
additional powerful lure to this area waa Mute fa tim|
Mountains. With a background of music since childhood [my
mother was an excellent ptenlst, whore close associations were ;
with other musicians, who met frequently In my home and;;
music was an integral part of our homeHfe]. In addition, I was/
constantly exposed to concerts and recitals. The determinatioa
to make our permanent home In this area was greatly
influenced by the knowledge that I could continue to eqjoy this]
phase of life, so necessary to my happiness.
The splendid musicians who participate In the Festival |
have come to know personally through my faitorvtowa wlthfi
them for the Yancey Journal and other regions! newspapers
and found them to be musicians with formidable
backgrounds, experience and reputations throughout America
and abroad but also truly delightful people as well. They
turn welcomed the opportunity of meeting and occatlonaltyt
mingling with local residents. We are privileged to have there
musicians among ns.
Music In the Mountains adds considerably to the glorious
life in this area. To carry on, Musk in the Mountains has vast:
financial obligations to meet. It needs the backing mid support,'
including better attendance and wherever possible, ft-i-far
contributions of all who wish It to continue to function andC
bring their high quality of music to our area.
This glorious countryside is enhanced by music; I know'
many others share my feelings.
