Emergency Water Supply Is
Public Utilities Aim
Engineers to Survey POten-
tiaI Capacity of the
Present Field

Engineers from the Bureau OF
the U. S. Geological Survey, who
have been studying data on Eliza
beth City'S public water field over
a period of two years are expect
ed to come to Elizabeth City TO
confer with the Public Utility
Commission as to the desirability
of increasing the supply Of water
from this source fol emergency
purposes.
In emergencies water is drawn
from an emergency basin in which
the water many months in the
year is decidedly brackish. When
this brackish water is mixed IN
the mains with the ground water
from the water field, the Public
Utilities Commission is SWamped
with complaints from consumers
who can't get a lather for thelr
bath, shave or wash.
I'VE believe that we can aoan-
don this emergency basin alto
gether and, by increasing the
number of pump points at the wa
ter field, have an ample supply OF
wholesome water on tap in any
emergency" says Supt. ]. c. Par
ker. But we are going to confer
with engineers of the Geological
survey before we take such steps"

S S Night
Cost Over

Very Elaborate IA IL d
Impressive; the Audi
tOrium W a ; Packed

What was probably the least en-
pertaining but certainly the most
elaborate Glass Night program ev-
er pre- -ented by graduating class
of the Elizabeth City high school
was given last night in the school
auditorium.
The costumes alone, which were
rented from a costume house IN
Norfolk. were rented at a total
cost of upwards of 5000, but they
served to make the exercises out
standing and impressive.
The program took the form OF
"A Dream" by Rip Van Wlnk-e'
which part was played by Fenner
HOPKINS. A large book with the
title written on its end and cover,
occupied the rear center Of the
stage. and as the cover was open
ed 7O-odd characters from the
pages of history, fiction and poet
nv stepped from the book.
A minuet by a Colonial group
and the singing of Madame But
terfly" by Clarice Pritchard were
features of the program.

Poor Quality and a
Flooded Market Are
Blamed; Price Slumps

Poor quality ana flooded mar
ket were the factors blamed here
for the sudden drop in the price
of May peas from Sl.O5 and bet
ter on Tuesday to 5000 cents
yesterday.
Il would say offhand that the
Door quality of The crop had a lot
to do with the drop in price,
said F P. Markham, prominent
farmer of this county, yesterday
The unSeaSonal cold weather
of early May did a lot of damage
to the peas in this section, and
the crop also has suffered a lot
of damage from lice. The peas
that have been shipped from here
so far have, for the most part,
been of poor quality"
S. G. Sect, local produce
dealer, agreed with Mr.. Mark
hams views about the quality OF
the peas, but he placed most OF
the blame for the price drop on a
flooded market.
The New York and Phlladel-
phia markets are being Swampeo
with shipments of May peas this
week" said Mr.. Scott. California
and South Carolina peas are
pouring in the markets. The sec,

VAN RIPPER TELLS 0F STATE PLAN
Local Executive Appears Before Hartford COm- mlittee to Aid State

R. W. Van Riper, president of In- gllastrial Properties, Inc, of this city, presented to the industrial confer ehce committee of the Connecticut chamber of Commerce at Hartford yesterday a detailed plan for help- ayiR Connecticut retain its present Industries and attract new ones.
 Tentative approval was given MT. Van Riper's plan, and Q Sub-com- sszittee of seven persons was ap- pointed to study his recommenda- tions and suggest procedure to be followed. MT. Van Riper was ap- pointed chairman of this sub-com- lnittee.
 Mr. Van Riper's recommendations included the following: placing of displays, emphasizing the states Industrial advantages, in banks, rail- r0gd stations and public buildings; placing of pamphlets on Connecticut industry in mall going out.of-state: issuance of an annual buyers di- rectory; publicity for new products: investigation of industrial failures t0 ascertain if any salvage can be made; plant inspection tours for visiting manufacturers; use of mem- bess of sales organizations in mis- sionary work for the state.
 The conference was told that di- veEsification of industry is by far the best means of irsuring the future welfare of the state and the commu. nlty.

departments is seen in the decision of Judge Dickenson, where he com mented on the views of the legisla- ture in passing the charter.
 Evidence Heard Thursday
 Evidence and arguments in the wrangle between the Mayor and the Controller-Elect for the power of appointment in the controllers of- flee, were heard by Judge Dickenson In superior court last Thursday.
 "No express power is given to either the mayor or controller (ac- cording to the charter) to appoint assistants to the controller" says Judge Dickenson. "The question is, may such power be implied, and if 50, in whom?"
 Intention of Legislature
 Judge Dickenson infers that the legislature intended that the in- cumbent of the of1ice should ap- point his own assistants, when he said in his memorandum of de- cision, "In view of the fact that the legislature has given the mayor express authority to fix the kind, number and compensation of posi- tions not provided for by charter and has said nothing about appoint. ment to thise positions, the natural inf .ncc Is that 1t was intended that the incumbent should be ape pointed by the head of the depart ment and 1t is so held."
 More Legislation Possible
 Further legislation Is possible fol- lowing MT. Rowland's assumption of his office. Judge Dickenson in court yesterday refused to allow him to amend his complaint in the issue which was decided today. Rowland sought of Judge Dickenson an

CONGRESS ENDS SPECIAL TERM

tContinued from Page i) fiict developed in the final days of the 36 day special session when @ quiet visit of senatorial liberals George w. Norris. l., Neb.; Sherman Minton, D., Ind, and Lewis B. Schwellenbach, D., Wash.--to the White House emphasized the desire of Mir. Roosevelt for revival of the wages and hours legislation which was buried by the house last Friday. Action will be taken next session If administration leaders decide there Is any hope of success.
 The trend was Illustrated again by the manner in which Democratic and Republican conservatives struck back at the presidents press con- ference tatement--that industrial leaders had assured him they did not fear New Deal legislation and that the fear psychology was fos- tered by a large percentage of news papers.
 Foreign Affairs
 Chairman Key Pittman, D., Nev., of the foreign relations committee, said he believed foreign affairs would play an ever greater part in senate business at the regular ses- sion and that there will be "a very much broader" neutrality policy un- der discussion.
 Asked if he felt that the president should be given greater authority in regard to the nations attitude to- ward foreign conflicts, Pittman re. piled:
 "Personally, should say yes. l believe a moro definite description of when the neutrality act should be imposed may be in order"
 VIII Not Remain Aloof
 The committee chairman's atti- tude reflected President Roosevelts statement earlier in the day that the United States would not remain aloof from international affairs and that 1t would cooperate, or even as. sume leadership, when necessary. Any attempt to give the president greater discretion in regard to tnvo- cation of the neutrality act was con. sidered certain to encounter stiff op- position in congress, where the cry for withdrawal of American forces from China hos been frequently raised in recent days.
