Letters To The Editor y ••••••••• H To The Editor: The Mayor and the Board of 1 Aldermen of the Town of Black - Mountain desire to thank the Black Mountain NEWS for its attempt to find out the wishes of the people of this community with reference to the recently installed parking meters. They d'iffer with the editorial in the NEWS of April 29, 1948, in their interpre tation of this straw vote as being the voice of the people. By law the voice of the people was expressed when legally con stituted voters elected the present Mayor and Board of Aldermen to decide matters of public policy and town finance for them. This board, at the request of interested citizens and after carefully can ■ vassing the traffic situation and the intolerable and increasing con gestion here and elsewhere, de cided to do as the vast majority of cities and towns are doing, and installed parking meters. They believed that in so doing they were carrying out the desire of the citizens that their legally constituted authorities keep the town in line with other pro gressive communities the country over. W T e are convinced that what most of those who expressed their animosity against parking meters were really trying to do, was to vent their dissatisfaction with the so-far unsolved problem of put ting 1948 traffic into 1918 streets. The board is quite "as dissatisfied with this almost hopeless situ ation as these people are. It realizes however that taking out meters that other communities are finding both helpful and re munerative would make traffic congestion worse, not better. Wherever such action has been taken at the request of an indi vidual to remove a meter from in front of his store, it has not been long before he asked to have it put back. This has happened on our own principal highway. It should be borne in mind that although this installation was done not to make money but to improve the traffic situation, they have been found to constitute quite a source of revenue. During our winter months and the com paratively light spring traffic they have run between $l3O arid* sld) per month. During the height of the tourist season they should do twice or three times as well. , If those who object to this modern approved method of help ing traffic congestion and bring ing financial relief that may save < increased taxation really wish ; their officials to remove the ' meters and allow selfish car 1 owners to park indefinitely in the 1 congested areas of town, it is sug- 1 gested that they get up a petition signed by legally constituted voters, requesting that such action • be taken, so that the lawful voice 1 of the people may be heard. Un less this is done before the first of this August, however, the cost of removing the meters will be $62 per meter. If the meters are re- ' turned, all money collected from them during the past several months must be given to the com pany that installed the meters. Again thanking the NEWS for its patriotic attempt to help in ; solving this much-discussed mat ter, the mayor and board of aider men beg to remain, Sir, Respectfully yours, The Mayor, ] Board of Aldermen of the Town of Black 1 Mountain.

TROOP 47 Instead of the regular meeting , troop 47 went on a camporee with , troop 25 and Explorer Scouts. We had inspection on entering camp ; by Scout Master H. D. Smith who spent the night with us. Each troop did his own cooking, putting up pup tents, etc. A few boys from each troop did not come because they wanted to see the donkey ball game. Mr. Charles McDougle found out we wanted to see the ball game too. He went up town and made arrangements for all the boys at camp to see it free. We want to thank him as well as the Jaycees and Lions for making it possible for us to see the game. Also Frank Buckner, L. C. Jumper and Charles McDougle for taking us in their cars and bring ing us back. We liked the game very much and some of us would , like to have ridden a donkey. During the supper hour at camp some of our parents and friends came out to see us and eat, among them were Mr. and Mrs. Frank Buckner, Charles Mc- Dougle, Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Jump er, Frank Byrd and L. J. Carbon ette. We are glad to have Mr. Car bonette working with us. He has worked with boys in Rutherford ton and we know we are going to like him. Senior Scout Edwin Smith in spected the -camp during the camping time. Just before leaving he counted the points and found that troop 47 had won. Andy Jumper, Scribe. KERLEE BAPTIST CHURCH Troop 56 met Monday night at the home of their scoutmaster, Fred Quinn. After passing all the require ments we were able, we were dis missed. Winstonßiddle, Scribe. Inactive Players Asked To Turn In Uniforms Parnell Carpenter, field captain of the Black Mountain Merchants base ball team, asks that those who have uniforms and who do not find it possible to play regularly, - turn them in to Bill Williams at the Pure Oil station. The request is made due to the fact that the Merchants were not able to field a team for the game with Flat Creek last Sunday. Anyone who wishes to play with the team is asked to see either Captain Carpenter or Bill Wil liams.
