By PEACE! — There is no tell ing how they will react to it, but peace is what the Demo crats of the state seem earn estly to be wanting these days. After all, Preyer, Lake, Bennett, and Moore are all members of the same party. Which illustrates better than anything else, just how big the Democratic tent must be. There may be trouble ahead —but not until the Republi cans have been dealt with this fall. In 1960. Sanford defeated Gavin by only 121, 273 votes. Incidentally, it seems boubt ful that a new chairman of State Democratic Executive Committee will be chosen be fore September. MONTHS AHEAD — After England had won out at one thousand-to-one odds with the leadership of Winston Church hill, the English people—for reasons only North Carolinians might understand — defeated Churchill at the polls, at their first opportunity. Why? Terry Sanford is still Gov ernor of North Carolina, will be until next January when the new Governor will be in augurated. At the National Democratic Convention, the man who will be boss is Gov ernor Sanford. The Demo cratic platform for the state, as Defeated Candidate Preyer reminded anyone who would listen, was written by People for Preyer. The 1965-67 budget is now in preparation by People for Sanford. The legions of Lake and Moore, chomping at the bit 4 Note to Qood Health . . .

THE RIGHT MAN — For their unity dinner in Char lotte the Democrats chose wisely in selecting Commerce Secretary Luther Hodges as the speaker. His was an era of peace in the party. He is acceptable to the San ford wing, because had it not been for him, Dr. Lake might have taken Terry Sanford in the runoff four years ago. The Moore people like Hodges —men like Publicist Bill Johnson, Harold Makepeace (Hodges assistant in the Gov ernor’s office), and Malcolm Seawell — because they were originally appointed to high position by him. Hodges’ strength is again on the sharp ascendancy in North Carolina. THE BRAWL — At least two motels here have already turned thumbs-down on the annual Debutante Ball to be held here in September. The new, out-of-this-world ish Velvet Cloak and the Col lege Inn have said officially and unofficially that none of the marshalls here for the coming-out party will be ac cepted at their establishments. Other hotels and motels are coming up with certain limitations. So, if you have a girl deb bing here come September, you’d better start making ar rangements rather early. Some of these kids are rough — particularly on motel and hotel furniture and what-have you’s. Now is the time to get in those reservations. And, as for our Memorial Auditorium here, it has never been so beautiful. The rest is up to you, dear parents. Can you make it?

C. appointments which mighi come Dan Moore’s way, somt of the boys see three Councii of State members who mighi drop out before January- ol 1969. These jobs are almosl never filled by election orig inally—but, as we have point ed out here—by Governor’s appointment. On the State Supreme Court three vacancies could easily occur during Moore’s term as Governor. Goldish, of course, but true. TEACHERS VS. EMPLOY EES — The State Employees Association was a backbone of strength to Dan Moore. For some of them, the going wasn't easy—since they were right under the shadows of the big guns. But, they made it—thanks to some good ad vice from that gray old dry witted advisor, Clifton Beck with. They stand to profit—. But the teachers, alas, seemed not to be so smooth. Most of their kneelings were Preyer prayers. More than one of them now stands in the need of Preyer. Well, you can’t get a hit every time at bat—and their knocks have been mostly home runs for three, four years now. It says here that educators put all their eggs in one basket: and their pickings are likely to be slim indeed—despite budg et requests to the contrary. THE FIRST — Thanks to Commerce Secretary Hodges, Wilmington Chamber Manager Pete Camak, our two U. S. Senators, and Congressman Alton Lennon, the FIRST American passenger ship to move out of North Carolina waters will sail to South At lantic ports on a special nine day cruise on Jan. 9. This beauty, the SS Atlantic, can care for about 600 pass engers comfortably. Another boost for Wilmington. If interested in this cruise to Virgin Islands and other spots of that area, write the Wilmington Chamber of Com merce THE CONSERVATIVE — A few hours prior to the voting on June 27, one of our in formers contacted Secretary of State Thad Eure. What. Mr. Eure was asked, will the vote be tomorrow? He said: “The vote — put this down (which was done)— will be not less than 700,000. Moore will get at least 400,000 of those ballots. Mr. Preyer will not carry ten counties.” This is the closest anybody we know of around here came to forecasting the landslide victory of Dan Moore. DECISIONS — Blessed with a lot of inherited, natural know-how in politics, Bob Scott of Haw River knows of possible troubles that lie ahead. No doubt one of the bund les of decisions which will worry him most is in the ap pointments he must make as Lieutenant Governor. In the first place, he must preside over a group of rough-and readv politicians — men who know parliamentary procedure like the backs of their hands. Tricky! And, like Lt. Gov. Hodges before him. young Scott lias had no experience in this field. But he will have helpers out there on the floor to guide him—. Even so, it will be rough indeed at times. And, as presiding officer of the State Senate, Bob Scott must name the chairmen and members of a long list of important committees — from finance and appropriations on down. In doing this, try and yray and sweat as you might, it is so much easier to make enemies — men to knife you later — than friends. But don’t sell Bob Scott short—. BROAD RIVER by Mrs. M. M. Elliott *1 ?' ” T. Personals Mr. and Mrs Marion Stu art and daughter, of Pueblo, Colorado, are visiting Mrs. Stuart’s mother, Mrs. Ulcy Smith and her brothers and their families on Upper Cedar Creek.

Imogene tells me they are stationed not far from Mount Rush more, where they have some kind of binoculars for tour ists to look at those faces on the rocks. The little girls told me the men’s faces on those rocks have mighty big eyes. Also they have ante lope out there.

Flack and niece of Mrs. Worth Burgess of Blue Ridge road. Black Mountain, is spending a most unusual summer. She is one of 15 students to be selected by the Duke University Religious council to serve as a part of the third "Project Nicaraugua", a project begun in 1962. Phyllis is a rising junior at Duke. Her summer’s work will be to acquaint the natives with the advantages offered at the medical center at Pearl Lagoon, Nicaragua, where the new center is being construct ed. To do this she is taking numerous visual aids with which she will teach children and adults basic health prob ltms, all the while trying tc urge them to receive vaccina tion for common diseases. A drug company has donatec $1,000 worth of drugs for ust in the center. Much of Phyllis’s equipment has been donated also. Var ious church groups have helped and the student’s own imagination has brought forth many items which will be ol interest to children with Mountain, were united in mai riage last Saturday a weel ago, July 4th. whom she expects to be doing much of her work. Phyllis, who is an English major, is still undecided about the choice of her life’s work. An Enka High school grad uate, she is winner of the Angier B. Duke scholarship and also a National Merit Scholarship. She is very active on the Duke campus and is among honor students on the dean’s list. “Criminal violation of laws affecting entitlement to social security payments can result in imprisonment or heavy fines,” James E. Robertson, district manager of the Social Security Administration in Asheville warned today. Mr. Robertson called attention to the sentences imposed on April 22, 1964 in Salisbury, on Harry E. Honeycutt and his | wife, Ruth Benfield Honey cutt.. Honeycutt was sent enced to serve four months i in prison. Mrs. Honeycutt was sentenced to one year in j prison but the sentence was suspended and she was placed an probation for five years. ! The couple pleaded guilty lo giving false statements in connection with an application I for monthly benefits filed on i behalf of Lizzie Mae Benfield,!
