MAY 20, 1960 NO.. 47 THE INSULTING ARROGANCE OF A UNION HEAD The insulting letter, in this paper today, sent by James B. Carey, head of a one of the country’s big unions to Congressmen who voted for a bill to protect the American public as well as union members themselves from the rack eteering domination of gangsters who crop up and take over unions and steal their money, should be carefully read by every voter and filed away for future reference. Incidentally, it may be assumed from the vast amount of money that is being spent to defeat Mr. Bonner and some other Congressmen that the racketeering union heads have sent into the first district the cash to buy the election. When so determined a fight is waged, when so much money is being spent to get out of office any man with a long and beneficial record of service to his district, it is time for the volters to sit up and take notice. This letter, to which your atention is called, is arrog ant, insulting, bold and vulgar to an insufferable degree. It speaks for itself; it undoubtedly means what it says. How can we have free, fair and honest government in a country, when the bold and vicious take oyer, when they spend fortunes to control the people’s affairs; when they would pass every law for the benefit of the gangster ele ' ment who rob even their own men in the unions? Take Bonner’s record away from him; make him a freshman Congressman yet to gain the experience and influence he now has, and still, he would be entitled to the full support of his district on the basis of this insulting letter that was sent him. We have never seen anything more cruel and ruthless, Un-American and obnoxious than the language that has been used toward an honest public ser vant, as was used by this guy who wants to beat Bonner who refuses to wear the collar of the crooked. LEADER OR FIGUREHEAD? WHICH IS PREFERRED. Party organizations in many counties in North Carolina have fallen to pieces, due to apathy of voters who have al lowed them to go leaderless for many years. No organiza tion can be healthy, vigorous and beneficial, more especially a political organization, without at least one person with energy interest and dedicated purpose who will keep his duty uppermost in his mind, and constantly work for it, day in and day out. Party organizations have failed because persons cy groups bent on keeping control from the sidelines of all political favors that may come to a county, have always maneuvered into the chairmanship some negative person who would do their bidding. A party chairman who merely awaits orders from his masters is not likely to have suf ficient initiative to keep any sort of organization on its toes. A chairmanship is no place for a lazy or helpless man. A man who cannot see things coming and take action is of nominal inconsequential worth. The future of the Democratic party in any county or state depends on the type of men who are put at the head. It is no place for a lazy man, a selfish man, nor a stupid man. It is a place for a leader and not a figurehead. A figure head only serves to discredit those who permit him to re main in office .A leader goes forward with zeal and en thusiasm; adopts the best of that which is progressive, and develops a group which is constructive and beneficial; power ful because .of its unity and concern and happy to use its power for the advancement of their people, A NEW COLUMNIST FOR THE COASTLAND TIMES. This week we are printing a second column by Roger Meekins, son of the founder of this newspaper, who as U. S. Air Force officer spends much of his time piloting war planes between his base in the far south and the far north of Labrador. As a small boy, Roger Meekins learned the printer’s trade in the printshop of The Coastland Times in Manteo, developed exceptional skill as a linotype opera tor, and through this skill he largely earned money to work his way through the college education his parents were unable to give him. After study at State College, and the University of Miami, he got his degre in journalism at the University of N. C. Because of his interest in what was his father’s principal lifework, we have long hoped that he would come back to Dare County which he loves intensely, and this is still our hope and prayer. This week’s column, under the heading “Above and Beyond,” concerns a recent vacation to Mexico with his wife Joan. The first column appeared in our paper of March 25. His work speaks for ' his ability to put thoughts into language. CREED FOR SOCIETY (By Christian A. Herter, In Chicago Scottish Rite Magazine) For myself and my family and my friends, I want a society which will give us the chance to fulfill our own highest capacities. Any society which is capable of assur ing us that we can, with reasonable effort and in a reason able proportion of our waking time obtain the basic neces sities of life. It must assure us an education adequate to grasp and to enjcy humanity’s intellectual and cultural heri tage. It must give us freedom to follow where interest and inclination take us, both in gainful occupation and in leisure employment. It must give us freedom to worship as we choose and to communicate freely whatever thoughts we may wish to share with others. Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular .education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.—James A. Garfield Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do when it has to be done,whether you like it or not—Huxley The church says the earth is flat, but I know that it is round, for I have seen the shadow on the moon, and I have more faith in a shadow than in the church.—Magellan.
