Co-operation Is a Pretty TF ord Black Mountain has hit the headlines in a big way in the last week — from Owen’s third successful basketball championship tourney in Buncombe county — and Mayor Richard B. Stone’s reception of a second “Man of the Year” award this season — to Black Mountain’s newly won community honors as “Town of the Month” in the Carolinas’ “Finer Carolina” program. Every participant de serves well-won commendation. Behind one of those headlines is a quiet and not-too-often demonstrated record of achievement in community affairs — the plans of the Chamber of Commerce and of the Lions club to co-operate with the prev iouslv planned finer Carolina efforts of the Woman's club to beautify their home town. Co-operation is often the most difficult of human endeavors—the desirable faculty of working together toward one common end. So an extra bow goes to the C. of C. and the Lions in their plans to co-operate in an an nual “clean-up and paint-up” campaign with the Woman's club under “Finer Carolina” efforts, which is already in progress. Through this concurrent effort our town is bound to benefit by results more effective than if each individual group should see fit to go it alone in such a project This is real community team-work. Kidd Brewer's Raleigh Roundup VARIOUS DIRECTIONS—What about the 1959 Legislature as it •moves toward the end of its first month of action? Ask 59 people and you get 50 widely varying answers. But in formants seem to agree on a few basic statements. Feeling is that the first-termers are bogging the spotlight. Ordi narily, the freshman waits until he knows his way around a little and makes a few friends who can help him when his bill runs into trou ble. Not so this time. The sta ble, older members—some of them nationally known and others with long years of legal training and experience back of them — are quietly studying the scene while those here for the first time seem to be riding off in all directions. Despite what you may hear to the contrary, the races for speak ership in the House and for presi dent pro tern in the Senate have apparently left dissension and slow-healing wounds. Now this is particularly true over in the House. CALL GIRLS - We hear that the machinery in the House under the capable and veteran leadership of Chief Clerk Annie Cooper is not functioning: up to this time as smoothly as in past sessions under her guidance. There have been in stances of short tempers and bad humor within the past few days in the give-and-take of House legisla tive mechanics handled by Mrs. Cooper’s big staff of female clerks and male pages and messenger boys and what-have-you. Most of the girls are housed in another building some two blocks from the Capitol in a sort of sten ographic pool near the new and modern motor pool. Informed they would be contacted there by tele phone as needed for special House work, some of the ladies laughing ly referred to themselves as "call girls.” We are advised this bit of joking burned Mrs. Cooper to a crisp and she spared no words in letting the clerks know of her dis pleasure. Our prediction is the situation has cleared up consider ably by this time. HOW THEY STAND—Our word is that in the House there are now 65 solid votes out of the 120 against any administration item re garded as being the least bit on the controversial side. Over in the Senate, they say that 20 of the 50 members will follow blindly the wishes of the Governor, with the remaining 30 leaning neither for nor against the administration. TAX BILLS—In past years, you could hear members of the Legis lature in early days of the session complaining and growling about the new taxes proposed by a Gov ernor in his revenue message. “My folks back home just won't stand for any more taxes,” they would say. “Why can’t we come to Ra leigh just one time without having to face new taxes?” they would ask. And so this time they came, they listened, and for the first time in the memory of most of them, their governor asked for not one dime in new revenue. The impossible at long last had happened, the mil lenium had settled about them like a warm, dollar-studded shroud, 'i ou would think the legislators would be delirious with glee. One session without new taxes! But— I kid you not, as Jack Paar would e Moody. Jr., was ad mitted to Memoriaj Mission hos pital on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Clinton Gregg, Robin and Sherry were -supper guests of Mr. and Mrs. Henry In gle, Jr., of Black Mountain on Fri day. B. M.

This crown tax, estimated to produce upward of $20 million in new revenue, stands high on the list of those measures favored at the present. Of course many things can and will happen before the speaker raps his gavel and an nounces in a serious tone: , "The bill will now be read the third time. This will be a roll call vote. Those in favor answer ‘Aye’ when your name is called. | Those opposed, ‘No.’ The clerk will j call the roll.” I 1 didn’t know until informed by ( Thad Eure at a morning class for ] greenhorns that roll call vote is f required when money is being spent ( or new taxes levied. That is to prevent some of us from voting j yi - and then swearing we voted no [ when you folks here at home call t us on the carpet. —R— t Legislative Notes \ Last week 1, with the other com- i mittee members on prisons, visited t Central Prison for men and the t Women’s Prison. It was educa tional, and most of us were stir- 1 prised at the training schools be- t ing conducted at each. f At Central Prison the men have t the opportunity to learn several 1 trades, including printing, brick > laying, cooking, woodworking, and others. We stopped by to watch 1 as they stamped out license plates i for next year, then followed the t plates through the various step- t until they came out finished pro- c ducts and were carefully slipped > into the paper containers, just the way they’ll be when you buy them \ next year. In case you’re interest- ; ?d, they’ll be black numbers with 1 a yellow background in I960. i I considered slipping a set of c plates under my coat hut thought i setter of it when a prisoner run- < ning a linotype said he hail been on the same machine for five I years. They kept their eye on us ] :o close that I couldn’t even sneak i bar of the “Pine State” soap in ^ ny pocket. I never did figure out j whether they were watching the i visitors or the prisoners. ( l he committee on prisons is I studying’ and has under considers- i tion the possibility of establishing - additional schools or training coin s- ( es in the prisons so that more men ! and women will have a chance to learn a trade. They would not i make products to compete with pri- ( vate industry but would sell only to other state institutions. I This would save the state man- ! ey. But the greatest advantage j would be in the training given the ! prisoners. It would help them when they are released to become j adjusted. Strange to say there is opposition. i —R— Plenti of Bananas The story of what’s now being j served from Room 215 at the Sir Walter, appearing in last Sunday’s j Charlotte Observer, brought im mediate response from Jim Graham of Farmers’ Market in Raleigh. He and the Austin Fruit Co. sent over Jo pounds of delicious banan as, fresh off the boat, to my room last Tuesday morning and left a note promising: “When you get low on bananas, just call. We’ll keep you supplied throughout the entire session.” No Road Into State Norwood M. Ansell, Currituck I county representative in the legis lature, is the only member who has to travel through another state to get to Raleigh. From his home on Knotts Island, Mr. Ansell has to go through two counties of Vir ginia to reach North Carolina. There is no road from the state to the northeast part of Currituck county where he lives. But the school children up in that part of the state really have a rough time. It is 47 miles from their home to school. They make the round trip (94 miles) by bus each day. The genial gentleman from Cur rituck operates a farm, growing B & PW CLUB HAS— From Page 1 executions following in its wake was made by Miss Blanca Reinoso. Isaq Ansari of Jordan, for seven years in his country's income tax department, stationed in Jerusalem, a sophomore here, expressed the hope that the “refugee problem will be solved as soon as possible. He indicated his belief that some Marshall plan Point 4 effectiveness had been lost in administration of the programs, in such things as salaries, fences, new roads,’ while the real need, he said, is for es tablishment of “more factories in which employment could enable our refugees to help themselves. There are no senior colleges as we know them, he explained, education is hard and expensive to achieve. Arun Preedidlok of Thailand, who served four years there in the Department of Education, by which he was sent here to school, traced the history of relationship between his home country and the United States. He asked that more schol arships be established that “wo may better come to know the ways of the United Statets and of dem ocracy.’’ He said this would be the most effective way of combat ting pressures put upon Thailand by Communism and added, “Al though my country and the US are miles apart geographically, they are very close in spirit." Miss Reinoso, a sophomore ma joring in political science, remind ed: “After our bloody revolution, there is scarcely a home that is not saddened by the death of a loved one. In the executions which have corn, wheat, soy beans, and hogs. When Irwin Belk of Mecklenburg took the floor last week to intro duce guests from Charlotte, he an nounced that there were four he wished to recognize. He named three, then stopped and, with a puzzled expression on his face, turned and looked long and hard at the place where they were sit ting in the rear of the hall. Then the identity of the fourth person hit him right square in the face: “And my wife." he almost shouted in his relief at remember ing the rest of the delegation. Craig Was flood Player T. F. Story of Wilkes county, remembers George Craig, president of the Swannanoa bank, as a tough man to handle in intra-mural sports at Chapel Hill. "He was short and heavy, but I remember him es pecially for the power he had when he butted me in the stomach with his head,” Mr. Story recalls: "I tan still feel my bones rattle when 1 think of those games we had be tween the classes." Governor's Breakfast At a breakfast last Friday inorn ng- given by Governor and Mrs. -lodges for a group of legislators, he governor told the waiters: "Start serving up at this end of he table on each side of me. If ,'ou run out of ham and anybody s left out this time, I want them ,o be as far from me as possible »nd at the other end of the table.” The reason: At the first break fast the man sitting on the gov ernor's left, kept rubbing his ham's and saying: “I just can’t wait until they get around to me with that ham. I’m starved. It look^ and smells so good.” But he did have to wait. In fact he waited several days. The ham ran out, not as it was supposed to with the last man, hut at the man next to the last. Thus, the fareful instructions as to where serving was to start. But. the governor need not have ivorried. There was plenty to go around. Being in the middle, I fiad no worries anyway. I ate ^ more than my share of ham, bis fuits, red gravy, grits, apples fried n deep syrup, two or three kinds if jelly, and toast. Maybe that’s where that extra poundage came from.
