TOWNSVILLE ROAD
WORK BEGINS SOON
Arrangements Understood
Made for Supply of Top
soil for Paving

With provision believed to have
been made for the procurement of top
soil supplies, the contract for the paw
ing of approximately seven miles or
the Townsville highway out from
Henderson is expected to be let de-
finitely by the state Highway ana
Public Works Commission in the next
lew lays.
1t was understood today that there
was no difficulty as to the right OF
way, but that some delay had been
experienced in obtaining sufficient
quantities of topsoil for treating the
road. which is to be of tar and gravel
construction. Actual letting of the
contract was held up last week after
bids were opened by the highway
commission. but the chairman and
the chief engineer were empowered
to act in the matter when satisfac-
tory arrangements could be made for
the supply of soil. That was neces-
sary because of the nature of the soil
on he 'OadWay.
Agents Of the claims department OF
the highway commission have been
in the county this week negotiating
for the soil supply which will be
bought from property owners who
furnish it, Indications today were
that this difficulty had teen smoothed
out, and that the highway officials
would give the word to go to the con-
tractor as soon as they had been adj
vised by the claims department that
conditions had been met.

lied that merchant vessels really are
vitality important to a nation in an
emergency; they can't always be hir-

But the same old difficulty present
ed itself. A highly protected country
cannot compete in the open, with a

In the matter of shipping, the pro-

ferential between what they are pen

Dr. Il. p. Mitchell, who has been

Board of Health, effective September

He has been appointed health officer

CATHOLIC SCHOOL
IN BAPTIST ROOMS
Two Denominations Cordial
In Raleigh in Emergency
of Catholics
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
I'm The Sir Walter Hotel.
Nv Il G. RASK ERVFVI

Raleigh, Sept. 4.-Tne lion and the
lamb have not quite snuggled up to
each other and snoozed together, but
the officers and congregation of the
First Baptist church here in Raleigh
have offered the use of the Sunday
School rooms of the church plant to
the Sacred Heart Catholic Church for
the use of it's Parochial School until
the new Catholic school building, now
under construction, is completed, it
was learned here today. The Rev
Father L. E. mi Freeman, pastor of
the Sacred Heart Catholic church
has accepted the offer and within a
few days the Catholic school will open
and start it's classes in the Sunday
school rooms of the First Baptist
church.
Another interesting angle of what
may appear to some to be a strange
arrangement whereby Catholic
church is conducting it's Parochial
school in the Sunday school plant of
Baptist church, is that the superin-
tendent of the First Baptist Sunday
school and member of the govern
ing board is the superintendent of the
Raleigh city schools, Claude F. Cad
dy 1t is understood that Supt. Gaddy
was in entire accord with the pro-
posal and did all he could to help
Father Freeman secure the use of the
Sunday school rooms for the use OF
the Catholic school.
The reason for this unusual ar
rangement is that the Sacred Heart
church is now building a new stone
building for its Parochial school on
the lot next to the church, replacing
the old wooden frame building. It had
hoped to have the new building com
pleted in time for use when school
opened this fall, but there were sew
eral delays, with the result that the
new building will not be ready for use
for several months yet.
The arrangement is not regarded as
unusual here, where the most cordial
relations have existed for many years
between the Catholic and Protestant
churches and their pastors, it is
pointed out. And while the First Bap-
fist church is one of the oldest in the
State, it is regarded by many as be-
ing one of the most liberal and toll
Grant in the State, as is it's pastor, the
Rev. j. Powell Tucker The church
people here are pointing with pride to
this rather unusual example of in
DETERMINATIONS cooperation.

D|PHTHER|A CAUSE

Health Department Points
To Discovery of Seven
Cases in Two Weeks

Increasing prevalence of diphtheria in
Vance county during the past two
weeks. gave rise to a warning to par
ents today by DR.. z. p Mitchell. coun-
ty health officer, to take immediate
steps to have their children immuniz-
ed from the disease.
A total of seven cases have been
discovered, four of them prior to
September 1 and there since that date
The health department has been
appealing to parents to have the
Schick test given their children inn
mediately, and certainly during the
first few weeks of the school year,
when the campaign will he carried to
all of the schools of the county, Dr.
Mitchell said a great many mothers
were bringing their children to the
health office now before school opens
and the tests were being given, and
if the reaction is positive the anti
diphtheria serum is later administer
I'd.
All of the treatment is free and is
wholly voluntary on the part of the
parents. But it is possible to make a
child immune from diphtheria by this
treatment health authorities say, and
for that reason they are urging that
all children be given the protection
as speedily as possible.
Prevalence of seven cases of diph-
iberia, four of them in August, was
part of the monthly report on con-
tagious diseases.
For August whooping cough led the
list, with eight, and there was one

WARTIME STATUS
Uncle Sam has, indeed, protected a
little coastal shipping by prohibiting
foreign craft from carrying freight
or passengers between intra-Ameri-
can ports, but he has been powerless
insofar as concerns international COM
merce. And coastal traffic has been
insufficient to maintain a merchant
marine of much consequence.
Thus, when the last war broke out
the United States practically had no
mercantile fleet.
There was a tremendous overseas
demand for American goods, but no
American ships to transport them.
And the belligerents' ships, which
previously had been doing the carry
ing, were too busy in the war zone
to do the business.
Of course this situation was inn
mensely aggravated when the United
States entered the struggle.
American yards began shipbuildine
at fever heat, but a ship cannot he
built in minute. Nevertheless, a mer-
chant fleet of considerable size but
of poor quality was created.
