'Until the committee actually pot
down to selecting sites for the
building a month ago, a half-dozen
locations hadbeea suggested. Now
It looks as- if the structure will go
to none of these.
About one Mode north of the
State Museum on Halifax Street—
and amadk dab in the middle of the
street—seems to be the site now in
the'forefront. H the place is select
ed, the street of course would go
around either side of the Legisla
tive Building—much as do the high
ways around courthouses at Pitts -
boro,' Whiteville, and at several
other locations in the State.
'Plans for converting the two
blocks south of the Capitol on
Fayetteville Street into a mall are
still being discussed—and you can
look for a street-park of some type
on the tiwo blocks running north of
the Capitol to the Legislative Build
ing.
That is the way the new center
of-Raleigh on the governmental
front shapes up at this time. It
will be architecturally sound, uni
que, and beautiful.
WHILE HE’S GONE . . . With the
Governor, his secretary Ed Ran
kin, and several other top admin
istration officials in Europe dur
ing a large portion of November
on an industry-hunting trip, what
would happen if something went
seriously askew here in North
Carolina in their absence?
Will, of course nothing is said
about it, but it is tacitly under
stood that Lt. Gov. Luther Earn
hardt of Concord has been given
full power to act in emergency in
the Governor's absence.
You will note—if you think back
upon it—that Luther Hodges and
bis Lieutenant Governor are never
out of the State at the same time.
When one is away, the other is al
ways here.
Before taking action in a<n emer
gency—such as a race riot that oc
curred ' in Winston-Salem when
Governor Bickett was out of the
State 40 years ago—Lt. Gov. Barn

Another intereeting point about
the 'Oov«n»e’s Buropean absence:
In the entire trip, he is never ex

One of our friends standing at

downtown Raleigh—said that pass

noon was about the Piedmont plane
down in Virginia. Sympathy for the
company operating it. as much as
for the crew and passengers was
expressed in the bits of talk heard.
No company has a better safety

Carefully.

rolet’s fine reputation as a solid, well
built, dependable product is being safe
guardedby more checks and inspections
and tests,.than ever before.

we want you to have available the
finest and most complete service
facilities. That is why we: Conduct
training schools for Chevrolet dealer
mechanics. Study and recommend im
proved service equipment and tech
niques. Maintain the industry’s most
complete parts warehouse system.
Finally, neither Chevrolet nor your
Chevrolet dealer has any intention
of forgetting you after you buy. To
help keep you happy with your Chev
rolet, we have established a depart
ment new to us, and so far as we
know, new to the automobile indus
try. This is the Chevrolet Department
of Owner Relations, whose only job is
the coordination of Chevrolet and Chev
rolet dealer activities so that you enjoy
utmost satisfaction during your entire
period of ownership. Through this
department, and through all the
other extraordinary steps we are
taking, Chevrolet and your Chev
rolet dealer hope to keep you a happy
member of the Chevrolet owner
family.

HOW RATHER THAN-WHERE
The U. S. Budget Bureau, recent
ly released a chart showing where
the tax dollar came from and
‘where the tax dollar was «eut.
Quite a few1 miBkut know where
the tax dollar came from and are
impressed day by day how it
comes, but they don’t seem to know
too much about bow it is spent.
Many want to know something a
bout the “How” of spending.
Otf course there is a definite
trefid to‘funnel the big money into
the bands of the few, a practice
common to the Republican Party
since its inception.
The chart says that 56 cents of
each dollar goes for: major na
tional security, mMtary, military
assistance, atomic energy and
stockpiling. Twelve cents goes for
interest, eight for agriculture, six
roughest terrain in Eastern A
merica. One doesn’t think, of fly
ing “through” terrain, but what
word better expresses it when
your plane is zooming between
mountain peaks?
NOTES . . . Fayetteville, home of
the new Methodist College, is drag
ging its feet on contributions. Frank
Jeter, Jr., executive secretary of
the Foundation, has sent out a
worried letter which says in part:
“Up to now, people in this area
have paid slightly over half the
money they pledged, leaving us
with a 1950 deficit <yf almost $500,
000. Meanwhile, people of the
Methodist Conference of N. C. are
paying on time. You might say
they are doing more to give us a
college than we are doing for our
selves ...”
f#r veterans and sixteen cents for
all others.
There are more tins covered un
der major national security than
could be packed under a circus
tent. Greed, arfWMfce-laiw steal
ing and .other questionable prac
tices are the orderr«f ,the day with
what ameers to be a fairly sizable
group of conniving scoundrels.
Under National Security, they
call surplusses of metals and other
materials, stockpiling, in agricul
ture, stockpiling, if you please, is
called surplus and is painted as a
red-bearded deoil who so many are
toM is costing the taxpayers more
money than everything and every
body else in Washington are cost
ing. In short the big boys are dur
ing hberally in the 58 cents, phis
12 cents in interest and bellyaching
about the crumbs dropped on the
Boor for agriculture.
That’s roughly the budget pic
ture, but the picture behind the
budget stands out in bold relief in
such moves in the adminirtnatioa
to lower farm commodity prices,
raise interest rates, clean out the
pockets of the many little folks and
put everything into the pockets of
the few.
The rascals should be chased out
of Washington Tight now. A year
from now could be too late.
