It is not surprising that the funeral homes have announced plans to discontinue ambulance service. For a long time it has been a losing proposition, a financial drain and phj'sical burden on the employees. Particul arly here in Dare County w^e have benefitted by the pa tient, courteous and usuallj' prompt service rendered by Twiford's. We understand that other areas also have received such treatment. But the golden goose can no longer lay fast enough to meet the demands of labor regulations imposed against this unusual type of business. Heretofore, even if collection for services rendered was 100 percent, the operation of an ambulance would be at a loss. Peculiar as it may seem to some, those who are in such a hurry for ambulance service are in no rush to pay for ser\'- ices. The facts are that less than 50 percent of the charges are ever collected. So who can blame the funeral folks for dropping what already is a losing phase of their business in the face of impossible forthcoming regulations? Not us. Just within recent weelcs many funeral concerns throughout the state have curtailed the service, and the municipalities and counties have been faced with providing relief of some measure. Dare County is no e.Kception. There is one month remaining, according to announcement, before service is curtailed. Let us not find ourselves witliout solution at that time. The Dare County Board of Commissioners is scheduled to meet Tuesday, September 5. Rather than some of the trivia which usually clutters the agenda, we suggest that the board seriously consider the mea sures which might be taken to avoid serious consequ ences. The county is getting in the garbage business sure as it assesses taxes. The board recently authorized up wards of $30,000 for a “mosquito control” dragline. Other staggering expenditures are being made in other departments. So there is no reason for the county to balk in the matter at hand. This service to the public is essential and must be carried on in reasonable manner. Should it require an annual assessment against households, or be supported by appropriation from other sources, it must be continued. The only other ambulance ser\'ice in the county available to private citizenry is operated by the volun- "leer fire department at Hatteras. The folks of that community, as in other worthy causes, have put their shoulder to the wheel; secured the equipment; and answer calls anywhere on the island as well as service Ocracoke. They deseiwe to be commended. It would not be an easy task to establish an agency to compare with that at Hatteras in other areas of the county. Neither does it make good arithmetic for one area, such as Hatteras, to have to pay the freight while others go scott-free. Clearly, the responsible officials must give serious consideration to the upcoming problem. It is a growing thing. During the summer, one may find Twiford with three or four vehicles on the beaches. A program to assure the continuation is a must. HEAD O* THE RIVER By Hiram, The Hermit OTHER EDITORS PRACTICAL VERDICTS— UXSOLVED PR03LE.MS IWashinjton Dai’y News) It is perfectly undcrstatidablo why a judge will often rendsr a vrrdict which says “the defend ant must stay out of county for a period of three years.” This veidict is most practical for the given county in which it is rendered. Recently in a news paper we saw several verdicts which ordered the defendants to remain out cf that county for a periotl rf time. It is usual to order a 30 day sentence with judgment suspended upon the ..^londition that the defendant re main cut of the g.ven county for the stated length of time. At least the county in which the trouble has cceurrrd is rid of tha defendant for the time he is ordered to sla;.* out cf the county. But such a judgment, as practical as it might be for any given county, docs not really solve the problem. It simply means that some other county is going to have to contend with that .same fclbw. If he cau'^es troiihle in cnc place, he I kcly will cause trou ble in another place. The locale means verj' little, and insofar as law enforcement is con cerned, it only means that a different set of officers will have to contend with him. ■ At the same time, a man sent away from one county goes to another. We might look at it this way. If a man is ordered toj leave Pitt county for a peri od of three years, lie might wfell come to Beaufort county. •If at the same time a man is ordered lo leave Beaufort coun ty for three years, he might well go to Pitt county. In that event, two counties arc merely exchanging trouble makers. Frankly, we do not have the ultimate solution on how both counties can get rid of both men. Such judgments were entered » few days affo in Dare county. We cannot help bat wonder where the fellows sont away from that county will go. But we feel pretty sure that wherever they go trouble will follow them. North Carolina might get rid of such fellows by onloring them to leave this state. In that case, we are merely enlarging j the verdict by thinking in terms of sta'-es rather than counties. I Sometimes it is really not much punishment to order a fellow to leave one county or even one state, Somehow, we need to take a good look on how better to deal with such peo ple. Maybe in cases of habitu.al criminals who engage in petty activities, sending them to the roads might be more puni-h- ment than banishing them from a given locality. At any rate, this is a problem North Carolina ought to give serious though t and study about. FULLER TO LEAVE PLANTERS: JOINING BANK OF CURRITUCK Ernest Fuller, the popular Engiish-born banker who has l)ecn associated with Planter: National and prior to that the oIl Bank of Manteo, will be leav ing Mantco soon to assume new duties with the Bank of Cur rituck at Moyock. He resigned fr.em Planters effective Sept. 1. Fuller, assistant cashier of Planters, came to Manteo in If'oO from Raleigh and worked with Maynard Mangum, assist ant cashier of the Bank of Man teo who joined the Bank of Cur rituck in 19G2. Fuller will be working in the note department as teller with Mangum who is cashier and general manager. The London native, who has resided in Manteo with his wife Doris, has been e.xtromely active in civic and church affairs. Ho is a former president of JIanteo Lions, and has held other po- .silions in the club. A devoted Episcopalian, he has until re cently been lay reader and treasurer of St. Andrew’s by- Seems things have come to a pretty pass when beai-s are allowed to kill people and since I heard on tlie old Atwater Kent about them bears killing a coupla girls out west. I’ve had to keep my eyes skint. For my favorite bear, Mr. Hamm, has been acting rather strange lately. Mr. Hamm is sorla like me is why I’ve put up with him all these yeai’s. He likes his wom en, hut don’t let ’em hang around all day and won’t put up with no cubs, his own or any others. Seems to roe he has a different wife every spring and he’s not like many of we poor ‘men in that respect. For he simply picks out one ho likes and takes over. She don’t have no chcico in the matter as ho is bigger than any bear in these parts and can whip iier and any male partner that would try to keep her. Two or three have tried to lake him on, but the battle is one-sided to say the least. Even though ho sliould be close to a hundred in bear years, I've never seen anything that can whip liim. As soen as he gits tard of his summer wife, she just as well hit the road for he don’t allcw no low-down hanging around ■from her or any of her cubs. As a matter of fact he re minds me of the situation in Boston and Washington, D. C. Seems there’s a whole passel of women, having different ethnic backgrounds from we coastal people, whose men act sort of like Mr. Hamm. Jlr. Hamm loves 'em and leaves 'cm. These mothers have been loved and left and now we taxpayers are putting out a pretty penny to take cai'e of all their younguns. It’s diffei-ent in nature. 3Ir. Hamm performs what comes naturally and goes about his own affairs, and the mothers root bear or go hungj-y. In our society, we do it considerably different as wo have made hav ing illegitimate young’uns a honorable profession and we pay ’em well to do it. And when I say we, I do mean we, for our tax dollars support these hus bandless women and f ’thorless children. In fact 1 heard a fel ler talking cn the radio the otli- er morning. He’d written a book abcut it and the main chaiacter was a fat negro woman who had 11, yes I saiJ. it, ELEVEN children cutem wedlock. And that pore writing feller, who was white, was bleeding to death for her. Not over all them young’uns or oven over all them men leaving her fixed up (she said she only had seven fathers for them 11 young’uns so some of ’em did a repeat business) but this writer was mad because the gevernment wasn’t paying her enough to live as well as some of her nabors. Stuff like that don’t cros? Mr. Hamm’s mind, but like all minority groups nowadays, he's getting sensitive and don’t want nobody talking ab.ut bears. Ho happened to be cuts'd* lissening when I hoard the re port about bears killing them two gals and mauling up semo more folks in a national park. Well sir, he wont around grin ning like a cracked punkin fm- a whole day. By some stra'^gc animal sense, he knows that ho bear population is down to lit tle over 3 000 in this sta‘e whic’.i puts him in a minority com pared to dogs and politicians. Mules arc about the only thing in minority to bears in tha .sta‘e. So he was glad to h'ar about seme people being killed by bears, though he dees look down on my old mule as she is in the minority to him. Next d.ay ho was hang'ng around when the air waves brung the new.s th.at the pa-k i ■■MHunninimonni CLIFF BLUE... People & Issues POSITIVE PLAN ... In re cent years millions of dollars, and maybe billions, have gene down a rat hole in attempts to help the poor (icoplc raise their standards of living. We all know that the poor people need help atul they need an opi’iortunity to raise ab've the bare necessities of life which characterize too many of our low income families. But before much headway is made in the crusade to abolish poverty tiiere must be instilled within the hearts and minds of a goodly number of our low in come people a desire to make the most of oppoi-tunities of fered. The dole system has never proved as an incentive for many of those who receive it. lit .serves abeut the same pur pose as an aspirin iiill taken to relieve the pain of an abscess tooth. Following World War II the Federal Government had a pretty good system of assis tance for the GI's. It was called •‘on the job training." A private bii-incss could be approved to give “on the-job training.” It could be a Aovc, an clcc'.ric shop or dozens of other l•"nc‘s of work. The owner would p,-iy a small lunirly w.-go to be raatrh'.’d by the govein- ment, during an approved lengtli of time. After each three or six months tl’.c private firm would incre.isc its hourly wag' and the govermont would de crease its supplement. This s;v’stem proved well for hundreds of thousands ol Gl’s. We liavo them by the thousands here in North Carolina who wdl attest to its worth and sound ness. rangers had .shot some bcar.s, ' but weren’t sure th''y were the | ones mixed up in k.l'.irg the j girls. Mr. Ifemm quit his gr'n- j ning and got mad a? a hornet. H’s wife and a couple of cub.s had found him in such goo 1 humor that merning they had took a chance and follercd him to my clearing. When he heard that nows, he rushed over and swatted the latest Mrs. Hamm across the rump and sent her squalling into the sw.-.mp. He slapped one cub 40 feet through the air and the othern took to higher ground. I ain’t seen him in several days and it wouldn’t surprise me if he ain’t out organizing all the rest of the bcar.s in the state. And if he does and makes it to Wa.shington, just as cer tain as one wave follers ano’h- ern. Congress is going to moke it unlawful to bother a b'ar in the act of killing somebody. And if they d.on’t Mr. Ilamm can go to the nine old men and they’ll rule in his favor. Of course there’ll be one amendment to his bill as I’m certain he ain’t thought of it. The whole deal will exclude polar bears, them being white and all. thc-Sea, Nags Head. He will assume his new duties September T, Now, in the.sc days of pros perity most anyone who is trained or q lalifieJ can find plenty of work. The problem is to find work for the "drop-cut,” the untrain ed. In many instances the un trained man or woman cannot produce enough to justify a bu.-dness paying the min mum wage, and for this icason, they ai’e unable to g;t j bs and they become a burden on scciety. Some get into trouble; .some get on welfare. In either case they are a bad on society .and need guidance and arsi.stance, V.’e have often thoireht that if the government woul 1 direct a portion of it.s assistance to the need in supporting a prrgram .similar to the GI on-tl.c-jeb training program which folk-W- ed World H that it would .stand to do far mere lo-.varda lifting people out of the pit of poverty than the way in which a geodly portion of it is being spent. This would help the tax-pny- ing enterprise.'; whicli would qualify as on-thc-j.>b training firms as well as those being trained. A .schedule of pay simil.nr to the follow'ng might wc'l soitc as an incentive to tlm untrninctl and the unemployed and to business firms as well: First three months, training firm p.".y TOc* per hour, govern ment TOe* per hour. Second three months, training firm pay 75(1 per hour, govornment CSe* per hour. Thiril three mouths, training firm. S'lc per hour, government CO'*. Fourth three months, training firm, OOi* per hour; government 551. Fifth three months, training firm $100 per hour; government 50-*. Si.xlh three months, train ing firm, $1 10 per hour; gov ernment 45c. .S’venth three months, training firm $1 20 per hour; government JOe* per hour. Eighth three months, training finn, $130 per hour, govern ment 40(‘ per liour. If a pei-son continued on his “on-lho-job training” for two vears he or .she should certainly bo worth to the employer the minimum wage or more. The tax-paying private enterprise fim could have been brought into the program in a way which would be of mutual bene fit to private enterprise and tlie employee and if the employee were trainable there is but little doubt but that in most cases he would he situated in a paying job ill his home community. Very mueli would we like to see some program of this na ture tried. When yon come to think of it, about the only way people can be helped is to give them the proper education and training and an opportunity. Someone said that the bes*' that parents could leave their children was a good education and a Christian heritage, and this certainly is much better for many than a pot of gold. We would like to -see our lawmakers in Wa.sjiington pro mote ail “on-the-job training program” similar to the one jirovided for the GI s after IVorid War II. TWO-WAY COUNTY STREET A RACEWAY To the Editor: Traffic on County Street has shown a big increase since the Town Council opened it to two- way traffic. With this increase and with no parking allo'wed on the street. County Street has I become a raceway to some motorists. .. , As a resident of County Street, the NO PARKING edict has proved to be the most troublesome aspect of two-w.ny traffic. Visitors to the residents on this .stioct frequently have to violate the NO PARKING ordinance or park one to two blocks away. 1 feci the solution is either to revert to one-way traffic with on street parking or if the street is to remain o; n to two-w.ay traffic, to ai'ow on street parking from 5 )).m. to 8 a.m. An alternative w;uld he to request a prefes- sional traffic survey of Manteo and adoption of the findings. iMRS. M. K. FEARING, JR. Mantco, N. C. LET’S snow INDUCTEF^ IIO.ME FOLKS DO CARE To the Editor: When a group of Tyr~ell County men left fer indiicfon in the armed forces last Thurs day, it was cb.sorvod by the writer the solemnity of the oc- aasion. Thc.so young men were leaving for parts unknown with a possibility of no-return to their loved ones and to their homes. To hid them goodbye, only their parents were on hand, as if they were the only cues who cared that these yooiig .nen were setting forth for the relenties.s struggle, while the rest of us v.'ho will also reap henefits of their scrvicc.s, were going about our morning chores, as if it was our due that somebody’s .son should fight that we all may have freedom and security. Not so was it in World War II, nor V/orld War I. In ccch the hcraefront came through with flying colors. Let PS begin to realize that thi.s war, though undeclared, is just as real and jjst as tough—pessibly more sa—for our fighting men as any experienced by American soldiers. In the futuz-e can’t a chirch group or an organization tsjia over gnd assign a greup of five cr_ s'x persQjis pr more to bo at" the bus station to give each sot of inductees ,a ■ send-off, .showing that those on the homefront do care?

TTIE FUTURE . . . Asked again tlie otlior day what his plans for the future may be. Gov. Daniel Killian Moore re plied that he hoped to return to the practice of law and “make a little money”.

And, in all probability when he leaves office a year from ne.xt January he will return to his old job as one of llic lop attorneys for Clianipion Tapers, Inc—one of the world’s great est paper mills—at Canton. Unless they have money to begin with. North Carolina Governors need to “make a lit tle money” when their f'lur- year stints end. In certain other states where chief executives can succeed tlicmselves, they work constantly at this idea of running again. . . for the same job. the Governor’s cliair in .Tanuary of 1053, returnc.'i to his dairy farm at IHaw IRiivcr and then was elected to tlie U.

GOP FIGHT? . . . You can’t get them to admit it openly, but Democrats are hoping—and rx- jiecting—to see a h()t fight be tween Sticklcy and Gardner to determine which will be the Republican nominee fer Gjv- ernor. In the past, it has frequently been difficult for the GOP to find a candidate to i-un for Governoi'.
