A similar meeting of' representatives of these agencies in Washington has been held. In all these meetings, it was unani mously agreed that appropriate action should be taken immedi ately to meet the situation. Ex perience in the Marine Base irea and other areas has shown that | the agricultural agencies and j others dealing w ith public wel ! fare can render valuable assist i ance but that plans must be made i well in advance if the most ef i fective aid is given. I “It was agreed at meetings held in Raleigh that the first step | should be a joint meeting of the agricultural workers councils of J the three counties affected to make plans for activities to be started immediately and for other activities to be started if and when the War Department de cides to occupy the area.” PERSON COUNTY TIMES ROXBORO, N. C. Mercy Ship Now Bought, Payments To Be Completed , Raleigh, Oct. 24. That the gift of an airplane ambulance to the people of England from ci- 1 tizens of North Carolina will soon become a reality was indi cated today by Judge Frederick O. Bowman, State Chairman of the Old North State Fund, which has been conductin a statewide campaign to secure approximate ly $75,000 for the purchase of the gift. In a report to Governor J. Melvlile Broughton, Bowman an nounced that an option on a am phibian, twin-motored Grumann plane has been exercised and a substantial payment maide on the purchase price. Faced with an acute shortage of planes suitable for ambulance use, officials of the Old North State Fund have experienced difficulty in locating a mercy ship. With the cooperation of the British - American Ambulance Corps of New York, an option was finally secured on the type of plane desired, an exact dupli cate of the mercy ship which toured the State during early summer. “The U. S. Government has taken over the production of principal plane plants,” states Bowman’s report,” and we were quite fortunate to find a ship suitable to our needs.” “As the option was for a short time only and could not be re-j newed due to the fact that many others were seeking to purchase this particular plane, including the sponsors of similar ‘gift-to the-British people’ campaign in Maine and Massachusetts and several airlines, the Old Nortn State Fund has exercised its op tion and purchased the plane. Sufficient funds were available to allow a substantial payment to be made and we were able | to secure favorable terms on the . balance so that reasonable time | [is allowed for the Fund to com-j j plete its statewide campaign.” | O I Legal Notice EXECUTRIX’S NOTICE Having qualified as executrix cf the estate of R.
