Phone 118 Kings Mountain, N. C. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Kinston, N. C. Sept. 21, 1953 Stephen Decatur In a toast giv en at Norfolk in April, 1816 said: "Our Country! In her inter course with foreign nations may she always be right but our coun try, right or worng." No sincere person can agree with the latter part of that state ment, I don't usually see voting for a bond issue that can be done without even with some sacrifice. But we cannot sacrifice our chil dren ! . *' The Du Pont Plant and other in dustries; our growing tobacco market, our livestock industry, our banks, and" mercantile estab lishment and all industries, large and small, are valuable commu nity assets and we are proud of them. But they are not our most valuable assets. , Our homes, our schools, our churches and other public institu tions are most necessary and our beloved children are our greatest asset and blessing. If you are in doubt about the desirability of voting for the pro posed $72,000,000 state bond issue for our schools and mental hospi tals, or the $1,000,000 county bond issue for our schools, you should visit some of the overcrowded schools in our cities and counties. They are in desperate need. Some years ago I visited Cas well Training School here and had lunch in the dining room with a group Invited by the late Dr. C. B. McNary, who was at that time superintendent. Wo visited one of the buildings where the worst cases were housed. Their condi tion was almost unthinkable, but they are wards of the State and they need the care which they are getting. I resolved then never to return to that building unless I could do some good by going. I cannot help but think of these un fortunate children and their man ifold needs in relationship to the pending bond issue and the ur gent need for its passage. Governor William B. Umstead's radio talk some nights ago em phasized clearly the need for pas sage of these bond issues. It was fine. Misfortune may overtake us. We may need help some time in the future. The rich today may be the poor tomorrow. Most of the world has forgotten God. We beg for peace, but don't deserve it. We spend most of our money on ourselves and share lit tle with the starving world. War propagandists have declared we will get there "too late with too little." We must not permit that to ap ply to this ' important matter. Please don't let it happen to our children? who are the hope of the future! Remember the words of the poet who declared that "of all the saddest words of tongue or pen are the words It might have been." Support those bond issues on October 3rd! J. Herman Canady When Gov. Allan Shivers of Texas campaigned for the elec tion of Gen. Eisenhower last No vember, he (became the (first De mocratic governor of that state to stump for a Republican presi dential nominee in 100 years, the Yearbook for 1963 of the Ameri can Peoples Encyclopedia re ports.
