FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1958 NO. 10 SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR LOST COLONY’S FUTURE The diminishing attendance at The Lost Colony has for sometime been a subject of concern to those interests who have an economic stake in the prosperity of the show. After several seasons of patronage that haven’t been all they ought to be, it is time to wake up and find some plan, to not only give the show a shot in the arm, but to get it re-estab lished on a steady, nourishing and more dependable diet than comes after barely more than the mere local announce ment that it is going to open and going to close on certain dates. What too many of us have failed to realize is that the Lost Colony, for some years now, has been in actual com petition with numerous other outdoor dramas. What too many of us fail to see is that any project which merely holds its own, with about the same volume of patronage year af ter year, is really not holding its own, but it is going behind. Any enterprise that doesn’t show sharp increases from year to year, is really not a sound business because an increase in volume is essential to offset steadily rising costs of any operation. At first it was considered a temporary set-back when The Lost Colony showed a drop-off in attendance as com pared with a preceding year. Too quickly an attempt was offered to explain away this loss by saying there was bad weather, or the show got rained out, and if it hadn’t rained, it would have had more patrons than the year before. The prospect of rain is one of the contingencies that must be considered in attempting to increase anticipated revenue for any attraction. When the old excuse for weather had worn thin, we be gan to report that all other outdoor dramas are also disap pointed. Business for all of them has been slack this season, we are told. We learn this also in the face of the established fact, that while attendance at The Lost Colony has been growing less, the seasonal visitation of tourists and sports men to our area has been constantly increasing. So, we have in fact more and more people in our area each year, yet less and less patrons of The Lost Colony. Several times we have had to call on the State for the annual subsidy of SIO,OOO which is given only when the show runs into a deficit. Were it not for this handout from the State treasury, then we might long p.go have lost The Lost Colony, and its tremen dous benefits to Roanoke Island, its people, and its area. Now there isn’t a community in Dare County that doesn’t profit, either directly or indirectly from The Lost Colony. There isn’t a neighboring county that has not bene fitted greatly during the past 20 years because of the spend ing of people attracted to The Lost Colony. And had it not been for The Lost Colony, which brought so many thousands of people during a few years as to fill up all the homes of Roanoke Island in mid-season, it is quite unlikely we would have witnessed so heavy an investment in motels and tour ist accomodations, which today with their modern and bet ter facilities, have completely overshadowed and taken the former trade of so many of the homes whose owners used to benefit so handsomely in the “good old days.” The failure of The Lost Colony is due in part, to the failure of the people who most depend on it to do their ut most for it. Too many people have apparently taken it for granted that the benefits from The Lost Colony were like manna from Heaven, and would continue to fall unabated forever. Too few people have put their best into boosting it fair and wide and incessantly and year in and year out, as it was well worth the doing. Too many people also, have been most concerned with what it had to offer in the way of jobs for themselves, members of their families or their friends, and not enough concerned with how much they might themselves have actually put into it toward insuring success for the show. Too often its directorate has been over loaded with figureheads who have never had anything pos itive or constructive to offer in the way of a suggestion for its improvement; who often resented any suggestion from others who are, in away, “outsiders,” but might know some thing of value; too often such useless persons hang on mere ly because they consider it an honor, or worthy of their “self-measured importance,” that they be listed as directors of the Association. The show has been crippled by people who can’t or won’t do, nor let others do. And so the management of the show is left into the hands of a few, who must carry all the burdens with little backing; who cannot do the work that would be doubly heavy for a dozen people, not to speak of its impossibility for two or three to discharge. The limited staff cries for enlargement. The welfare and the future of the show hinges on soon getting some talent, and perhaps high priced talent that knows show business, that will have the financial sup port to finance show business as it ought to be financed. The Lost Colony is too big, and too worthy, and too essential to our local economy; it is too important to North Carolina’s people; it is too important to be allowed to fade out igno minously in the history of the state: —for any of us not now to rise up and demand courage and foresight be brought into play; and sacrifices even, on our part. Sacrifice is something that has never been done for it by the people of our region. Time after time, munificient and benevolent people of North Carolina have sweetened up the pot for it; many thousands of dollars have been poured into it as mere gifts; Paul Green never was paid for writing it; in fact just about all of it has been given us, and truly we have done very little to deserve iL Now is the time to rise up and go forward; now is the tiwiA to demand a stop to its downward trend. Now js the time to enlarge its staff, give it the benefit of talent and go getting ability. And let all of us go forth in every possible way to convince all those who come to see us that to see The Lost Colony is a MUST for every visitor to this Coast land, no matter for what other purpose he or she may come here. We have a greater opportunity than ever before to make The Lost Colony known to more people. Coupled with the literature sent out by, or resulting from, the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, we can reach an eager audience now many times greater than was available to us ten years ago. We can ride on this great wave of advertising to greater achievement for The Lost Colony. We can unite the hotels, motels, and other interests which serve the travelling pub lic, into a ready and willing group ready to present a glori ous package deal that will deliver to every person who will come, the most widely diversified and interesting vacation de-luxe that can be given by any region in the United States. When we speak of variety vacationland for North Carolina we can add a lot of superlatives when we come to our own ;. /\ # . — - - || | THIS WEEK ■- | I; ||| j — 1“ Washington j! With Clinton Davidson Wk*m THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT jj ;> ■! 'I Davidson * - If you know someone who worries about business and frets about the recession you can cheer him up with some good news. Tell him that if he takes a two . weeks vacation and comes back and finds a brand new city of 130,000 people built tip around him, not to be surprised. It’s happening all the time. Our net gain in population, the Census Bureau informs us. is at the rate of 9,300 people each day, 65,000 a week and two and a half million a year. The total will be 200,000,000 by 1970. We will have to put up new plants and expand the production of present factories to build.the automobiles, home appliances, homes, schools, hospitals and many other things just to keep up with the increasing population. Every Twelve Seconds There are almost three times as many births as there are deaths in this country each day. The birth rate is one every eight seconds, and the death rate one every 21 seconds. Counting one immigrant every two minutes, the net increase in population is one every )2 seconds, if automobile factories, for example,« operated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, they would have to IN CREASE their production rate by 120 each hour just to keep up with the increase in demand due to the population growth. It was only about 25 years ago BENEFITS (Continued from Page One) der Social Security immediately proceeding the disability. It is possible, he stated, that these people will now be eligible for payments. Mr. Mor rison stated, ’"however, that the 5 year work requirement was still in effect. He further pointed out that parents of a son or daughter that died after 1939 and had previously been disallowed because the son or daughter left a widow, widower or child should now recontact the office in that there was a possibil ity of benefits 'being paid. He stat ed that the similar provisions ap plied to adopted children where the adoption occurred less than three years before the adopting pa rene became entitled to retirement benefits, and in this instance there was the possibility of the mother of the adopted child becoming eli gible for payments also. Another important change which was cited affects a person receiving benefits who married another person also receiving benefits. Now the bene fits may became immediately pay able as a dependent of the new husband without waiting three years as was required by law. He emphasized that some people in situations similar to those men tioned may have been notified that they did not qualify for benefits under the old law. These people, he pointed out, should get in touch with the Social Security office promptly that they may be identi fied and a determination made as to eligibilty. Mr. Morrison also emphasized the slight change in Coastland. Our region carries a dividend, always. We can offer a variety vacation plus, at less cost, less trouble, less complications, but always, with more of the most delightful of outdoor life than any other place can hope to offer, and which will lend itself to keeping in our various Coastland communities more people for a longer time than would pause in any other place under the sun. CORONER’S OFFICE OUTMODED AND USELESS. All of us like to see a fair deal, efficiency in courts, government, and other public affairs. Naturally, we are in terested in the current renewed interest in changing the out moded office of coroner in North Carolina in favor of some thing that is of value. The ancient office of coroner has become as outmoded, and in many cases even as degenerate as the office of Jus tice of the Peace. As in tl)e office of the magistrate, too of ten we see completely incompetent men assume these duties; as a rule, —rather than the exception. There is of course, some appeal from the blundering or venality of a magistrate, but the harm that may be carelessely done in the office of coroner is not often undone. The principal, and about the only task coroners perform in this state is to pass upon unusual deaths. It is they who go to the scene, and decide if any circumstances warrant an investigation or a hearing. In many cases, unattended deaths are not surrounded with any readily apparent indications of crime. Yet in many of these deaths crimes have been the cause. Too often, because no competent person makes an ex amination, crminals go free. Unless the Coroner happens to be a medical man, and does make an investigation, blunders may ensue which can and has resulted in innocent men being falsely accused, standing trial, and latef convicted of crimes of which they were innocent. On the basis of today’s up-to-date thinking there has developed into North Carolina an effort toward changing the outmoded system of Coroner into one of truth and jus tice. A competent, trained physician, or technical expert would be given £he responsibilities and duties now so lightly worn by mediocre men throughout this and other states. In this new age, there is no sensible place for the office of coro ner as it has existed from time immemorial. Its abilities are now no more useful and efficient than a country constable who can’t read or write, if turned loose in a race with the FBI to ses who could land a bank bandit first _ . . __ THE COASTLAND TIMES, MANTEO, N. C. that the experts said .he population ‘Veiling" in this country would be about 150,000,000. We couldn’t, they said, find jobs for very many more people and, besides, we couldn't feed them. Not enough land, they said. Now we have a population of 172,000,000 and almost twice as many people employed. Not only that, but people eat more and better food, dress better, live in better homes and have more savings ; han ever before. The Farm Problem The problem of feeding this big increase in population is no small job in itself. Every 12 seconds farmers must increase their food production by 60 pounds of pork, 86 pounds of beef, and 28 pounds of poultry. That is the per capita annual consumption rate. I Egg production must be in creased by 344 eggs each 12 seconds and milk production must go up by 384 pounds just to take care of the increase in population. There is demand for 121 pounds mere wheat, 141 pounds more fruits and for 282 pounds of potatoes and other vegetables. Farmers must do this with little or no increase in the total number of acres in production. If they can do it, and the experts say they can, it will be the most significant ac complishment of the 20th century. It can, as a matter of fact, be done with two million fewer people on farms. the law pertaining to the rales on how much wages a Social Security beneficiary may earn and still get Social Security benefit payments. , He pointed out that this would be specifically covered in stuffers to be enclosed in future benefit checks but urged anyone who was working or returned to work while they were receiving Social Security pay ments under the old law should contact the Social Security office to make sure of the provisions as they pertain to the individual. Mor rison also pointed out that starting with January 1969, that the maxi mum earnings subject to Social Security taxes would be increased to $4,800. He also stated that be ginning January 1, 1959, the So cial Security tax for employees and employers would be 2 - l A percent each and the rate for the self-em ployed would be 3-44 percent. Mr. Morrison pointed out that the Dis trict Office is located at 220 W. Brambleton Ave., Norfolk, Va., but that representatives from the Dis trict Office are available for per sonal contact at various points throughtout the area at regular dates. He again emphasized that; it is not necessary for people al ready receiving benefits to apply for the automatic increase. SHRIMPING (Continued from Page One) straction to the industry from the' killing of small fish should be made, and corrective steps taken. It hasn’t been taken because of the power of local politics over the few authorities pompetent to cope with the situation. WATERFOWL FOOD SUPPLY GROWS IN BACK BAY Biologists engaged in a three year study of the Back Bay-Curri tuck Sound area have noted an in crehse in waterfowl food plants in that area in recent weeks. Some deep-water areas in Back Bay, the North Landing River and lower Curritcuk Sound are still without vegetation, however, the study team reports. Most obviously on the increase during July was Sago pondweed, although many submerged aqua tics made similar increases. Sago, which forms surface “slicks” and often fouls boat wheels, reached its peak growth during July and began “sinking” late in the month. This natural die-back, comparable to the die-back of many upland plants in late summer and fall, us ually occurs after the peak of seed production. Other aquatics including bushy pondweed, wild celery, widgeon grass and the muskgrasses had not yet reached their peak growth by the end of July, although flower ing and seeding were well under way. Several unknown growths, loeal ■ ly called “slur,” have appeared on the aquatics in both Back Bay and Currituck Sound. Most seriously affected by these'growths has been the Sago pondweed, with the heavi est infestation being found in Buzzard Bay north of the Knotts Island causeway. The idenification, extent and effects of these growths are being determined by team per sonnel. Joe Coggin of the Virginia Com mission of Game and Inland Fish eries, Art Dickson of the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Com mission, Rudy Rudolph and John Sincock of the U. S. Fish and Wild life Service, who are conducting j the cooperative investigation, have ! found diving equipment useful for making observations of undis turbed plant growths, bottom con ditions and light penetration. As increased vegetation has re duced the effect of wave action on bottom soils, water clarity has con tinued to improve. Oi) July 30th, the bottom could be seen through five feet of water in North Bay, which has the clearest water in the Back Bay area. The clearest water l in Currituck has consistently been found at the lower end of the Sound. Salinity readings during July have been the lowest recorded in recent years. ' Throughout Ju’y southerly winds held water levels fairly high in Back Bay, while normal water lev els prevailed in Currituck Sound. What a big wind can do in a short time was illustrated on July 24 at the Back Bay Warden’s Headquar ters when a squall suddenly shifted winds from southwest to west. The wind from, the west lasted 30 min utes and dropped the water level six inches. Within 45 minutes after the wind had shifted hack to south- " west, the water level near the Headquarters building regained its original position and rose three ad ditional inches. Several local residents within the study area are cooperating by keening daily water level records until permanent water level re corders can be installed.
